Eurotrip Images Fresh new pics from DreamWorks’ teen comedy.

February 02, 2004 - A handful of brand new images from Eurotrip have come our way, courtesy of the folks at DreamWorks. This teen comedy from the makers of Road Trip and Old School stars Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s Michelle Trachtenberg, Scott Mechlowicz (Neverland), Jacob Pitts (K-19: The Widowmaker) and Travis Wester (Teddy Bear’s Picnic) in a comedic yarn that attempts to redefine the phrase "foreign relations."

Here’s the setup: Scotty Thomas (Mechlowicz) and his Berlin-based computer pen pal Mieke (Jessica Boehrs) have been writing each other for years, sharing every detail of their lives. When Mieke makes a cyber pass at Scotty, he completely freaks out, thinking that this guy he’s known for years is coming on to him... in German no less. Too bad the the one detail Scotty doesn’t seem to know is that, in Germany, Mieke is a girl’s name.

By the time Scotty figures out that Mieke is a girl, and a hot one at that, Mieke has cut off her e-mail account and all contact with him. Thinking that this might be his one chance at true love (even though he’s never actually met the girl) Scotty and his best friends, Cooper (Jacob Pitts) and the twins Jenny (Michelle Trachtenberg) and Jamie (Travis Wester), embark on a raucous trip across Europe headed for Berlin.

Their raucous trek takes them from London to Paris to Amsterdam and Eastern Europe.
