ONTD Original: six (or seven) movies to celebrate the end of the school year

[my_moloko]

It's the end of June which means for most people, school's out! While your OP hasn't been in an educational institution in over a decade, I still think it's fun to get into the summer mood with some end of school year hijinks on film. Let's start!

Can’t Hardly Wait is the best teen comedy of all time and I’ll go to my grave with this!

It just turned 25. I’m so old

[my_moloko]

I agree. It came out when I graduated eighth grade and I was like, omg this is what high school will be like. I saw it in theatres twice.

[champagnexdream]

7th grade for me and I saw it in the theater too! I can prob quote the entire thing lol I’ve watched it so many times

[hellojeds]

Never heard of it, never seen it and it came out when I was a teen! It's definitely on the list for this weekend, just need to find it on streaming

Wow thank you so much! I should have mentioned that I live in Europe. I checked Netflix but it's not there, so I think I'll try renting it. Thanks again!

I have to simply agree. For the soundtrack alone...

[champagnexdream]

Prob my fave of all time tbh

[primimproper]

I love it because it’s of my teen time but gawd damn there’s that one F drop that just did not age well.

Gen Z, brace yourself. It was the 90s.

Oh yeah, it's bad. But Kenny's friends were dumb af so at least they didn't present using it in a positive light I guess?

OH WAIT I just remembered it was used twice, once on Mike later. Ugh. I'm sure that would not fly if the movie was made today but yeah, not OK

[primimproper]

I found it cringey even at the time, and some of that is intentional by the filmmakers, but I can’t shake how unfortunately this was EXACTLY how my high school (and probably every HS) spoke too. “That’s gay” “that’s [r-word]” 😬

[champagnexdream]

Yup, middle and high school was all that shit. So bad

[my_moloko]

Yeah. Although it's kinda funny watching it on TV now because that part is bleeped out so it just looks like no one says anything and then they all start laughing at Mike.

It is SO underrated!!!
