Don't Try This At Home: Wait around for your guests to arrive, only to pass out from too much booze when they all get there.

The Party (1968)

The Party: Hrundi V. Bakshi (Peter Sellers) heads to a sumptuous Hollywood knees-up that’s been thrown by a studio head, which bodes well for Bakshi’s dream of becoming a star.

Don't Try This At Home: Any of the following: flip your cooked game hen onto somebody’s tiara; disrupt dinner by attempting remove said game; accidentally set off the sprinklers; break the toilet; drop a painting in the toilet…

Superbad (2007)

The Party: The wild party to end all wild parties. McLovin’s attempts to give Nicole some lovin’ are interrupted by the cops. Seth tries to kiss Jules, but ends up head-butting her. And Evan winds up getting up close and personal with Becca…

Don't Try This At Home: Find yourself in bed with a drunk girl who say “blow-jay”.

The Party: Martha (Elizabeth Taylor) and hubbie George (Richard Burton) invite a young couple for drinks – while getting rolling drunk in the process.

Don't Try This At Home: Shag your guest while your hubbie watches from outside the house. That’s gotta hurt.

Toy Story 3 (2010)

The Party: Barbie and Ken don the glitter in Toy Story 3 ’s final musical montage, throwing what looks to be one heck of a party – even Big Baby’s wearing a gold glitter nappy. Awesome.

Don't Try This At Home: Wear gold glitter nappies. What would the neighbours think?

Hot Tub Time Machine (2010)

The Party: Best party ever, as John Cusack and co jump into a hot tub for a boozy evening of fun and frolics. Except then some wise guy knocks a drink into the tub’s electrics…

Don't Try This At Home:
Drink while you’re in the hot tub. All manner of things could go wrong. Including time travel.

Say Anything (1989)

The Party: Lloyd (John Cusack) and Diane (Ione Skye) fall in love over an evening at a house party, where they seem to be the only sober (and, alright, sane) ones.

The Party: Matt Damon shaves his head and rocks out with a mike, bellowing a rather fetching version of ‘Scotty Doesn’t Know’.

American Pie (1999)

The Party: Jim (Jason Biggs) and his buddies head over to Stifler’s for their graduation party, where they all plan on losing their virginities.

Don't Try This At Home: Get caught by Stifler after sleeping with his mum.

Cant Hardly Wait (1998)

Don't Try This At Home: No, really, don’t. Your parents will kill you.
