'Bushwhacked'
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.
So pipe up with your favorite high school flicks.
I cannot believe that no one here mentioned My Bodyguard! That is definitely my favorite high school flick, and it has the first big roles for Adam Baldwin, Joan Cusack, and Matt Dillon, to boot. Plus George Wendt and Tim Kazurinsky in blink-and-you-miss-them walk-on roles.
There are also all the "serious" high school movies like Stand and Deliver, Dangerous Minds, Freedom Writers, Dead Poets Society and To Sir, with Love.
My Bodyguard!
Also, Three O’Clock High

I LOVED that movie! I can't believe I'd forgotten about it.
My friends told me tonight that My Little Pony is this big fandom for guys, nicknamed "Bronies" (bros + ponies). Can this be true?
Quite true. The reboot is done by the same person who was responsible for Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, and it's very good. A couple of episodes have some brilliantly executed musical numbers, which include some Sondheim pastiches. (Also, the voice actor who did Raven's voice in TT does the lead character in the reboot.)
And there was an article in Wired last week.
HS movies: seconding 10 Things I Hate About You. Incredible cast, very funny, and girl characters who don't suck. Also, I have an unholy love for Footloose.
X-Men: First Class was so good! I think I liked it more than Thor. It was back to being good like the first two.
love Cowboys vs. Aliens.
Those are hilarious.
