America is a huge place with a lot of different cultures. Even within a big city you’ll find social circles with different ideas of what partying is like. I have friend groups that have completely different ideas of what gatherings are and I adapt depending on the group. There is not a singular American party style.

> In movies or TV there’s even a common theme of guests judging the host’s hosting abilities.

That’s a movie trope. You can find parties and social groups like this if you search around long enough, but most people are decidedly not like this.

Don’t take American movies too seriously as an indicator of American culture.
