Well, it's a movie with teenagers as the principal characters ... I'm not sure it's quite the same sort of 'teen movie' as Clueless and Heathers (and this also goes for Donnie Darko). Then again, I'm not sure exactly what I mean by 'teen movie', so ... :)

'Ten Things I Hate About You' is excellent. Cruel Intentions I thought so-so. The others I haven't seen.

You've not seen Gregory's Girl???

*Shame* on you :D

Watch that, and if you like '10 Things' you're gonna like 'She's all That'...

Hmm. Yeah, I think you've probably nailed it there.

So.... Donnie Darko then?

If Bill & Ted qualify...

Then the whole 'Back to the Future' series has to also apply, for obvious reasons.

It also puts Donnie Darko in an interesting teen/sci-fi box. ;-)
