Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Most of my favorites have already been named, but there's also: Back to the Future, Bring It On, Risky Business, and Freaky Friday (the original).
So many awesome high school movies! A lot of the ones I'd suggest have already been named, but here are a few I didn't see:
- Pretty in Pink
- Grease
- Mean Girls
So pipe up with your favorite high school flicks.
10 Things I Hate About You
Beetlejuice, The Lost Boys, Labyrinth, Auntie Mame. And maybe Moulin Rouge.
Auntie Mame.
Your favorite high school movie?
No wait! This must be your Drop Everything list.
I'm trying to imagine a high school version of Auntie Mame, though. I'm coming up with Ferris Bueller with a female lead.
Movies I always have to watch:
Coal Miner's Daughter, although that one's never on anymore. Also Jurassic Park.
High school movies:
My favorites are probably Heathers, Ferris Bueller, and The Breakfast Club. Good lord, I forgot Fast Times.
My Drop Everything Movies: The Freshman, Big Trouble in Little China.
I own both of these, but I don't get really excited about them unless they sneak up on me.
I really like the Star Trek movie, I have to say. Saw it twice.
No wait! This must be your Drop Everything list.
Yes, the Drop Everything list. My favorite high school movie? Hmmm. The Lost Boys came out the summer I graduated, so I suppose that doesn't count. (It hit the dollar theatre near my house about a month after release, which is why I saw it over 30 times in the theatre.)
Maybe Ghostbusters.
