Over at
smallfandomfest I grabbed a Defying Gravity prompt so I rewatched the movie and then sat down the write a story. Then I ran into a problem. Only six of the fraternity brothers were easy to named the rest I don’t know their names and trying to figure out who’s who was the hardest part, and IMDB was almost no help (most of the guys have never acted in anything else and so have no face picture) but I couldn’t not use them so I rewatched it again and listened for any name any of the brothers used and tried to match it to the brother it went with, some were easier then others bit I now know the names of 12 of them. likely the best I’m going to get. So anyways, so you any reader of my fic will know who is who (at least to me) I’m posting a guide with photos, if you know more guys please share.
See lots of guys and there are more off screen to the right that we can’t see…so many guys so few names.
First the main three everyone should know
Todd Bentley in the passenger seat, Pete Bradley in the back and John 'Griff' Griffith driving as it’s his jeep
Then the antagonist, Matthew 'Doogie' McDougal and his not all together willing side kick Stewar 'Stewy' Hanson the pledge
Then there is Gray Buchanan (on the right and more toward the front) who is likely the president and Logan Franklin (on the left and in the back) who since he’s up there too is likely the vice-president (the only other leadership position we know for sure is Griff. He’s called Social Chair by Grey at one point.)
Now it’s mostly background guys that are around but only get named one or twice and don’t have a major roll in the movie
Scotty
Scooter
And Bozzy, all three are first really seen playing hacky sack at the tailgate party and then on and off in the background from that point on.
Then Jonesy who only shows up once and is a jerk.
And last we have a guy and Scotty, now the guy on the left I think is Trip, but this one I’m less sure about because it’s more of a guess then anything but I wanted to have names for both these guys because of the implication the writer/director made with them maybe being a couple (I always thought they felt like it in the scene but thought I was just reading what I wanted into it but when I was doing some reading I found one of the actors [or at least he claims to be one of the actors] said the director wanted the observer to thing they were together so…) and I wanted them in my fic so they both needed names. So he’s Trip until I or someone else finds out his real name (or I find the script, that would really help)
