Teen movies started with (as far as I'm concerned) with Porkie's - then John Hughes got a hold of them (making such classics as Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, 16 Candles ...) Over the years they grew in popularity and kept getting better and better ... until ... someone got the idiotic notion that you could bread a Teen movie with a chick flick, make it PG-13 and get something other than horse shit.
I agree, She's All That, Drive Me Crazy, and stuff like that blows balls. Get stuff from the '80s by John Hughes, that's the good stuff.
But that raises the question ... what's it with you Brits and Absolutely Fabulous? That show eats balls.
O.L.
