My fave teen movie is Can’t Hardly Wait I have a lot of runners-up. Romeo + Juliet (my fave movie period but feels weird saying it’s my fave TEEN movie), Clueless, 10 Things I Hate About You, She’s All That, etc.

Lukas Haas in Brick will always crack me up, that was just a good era for those young adult indie films.

i recently rewatched it with a mix of people who saw it as teens when it first came out, and people who had never seen it before

i didn't appreciate until adulthood how very funny it is (and that its self-seriousness is done in a way that is in on the joke)

10 Things I Hate About You
Bend It Like Beckham
She’s The Man
Easy A (mostly for the parents)
The Perfect Score

i remember really liking the Do List. i need to rewatch.

i forgot Bill Hader's then-wife Maggie directed it so it's kinda blowing my mind that Rachel Bilson is in it hewwww boy.
