Top 50 teenage/high school movies

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

But ... but ... where are The Outsiders and St. Elmo's Fire?

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

I agree that The Breakfast Club is excellent. I won't argue with it being No. 1.

I think Sixteen Candles should be in the top 10.

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

I've seen 38 of the 50. The highest I haven't seen is Election, and looking at the synposis of it, I'm surprised I didn't. I might have to rent it.

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

Election is very good. I like Broderick in it a lot.

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

I absolutely loved Election, so I was pleasantly surprised it was so high on the list, but I don't know about putting it above Ferris Bueller.

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

I'm glad to see Just One of the Guys made it (barely)

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

high school at 13 is the highest i haven't seen

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

Agreed on Virgin Suicides ... excellent flick. One Crazy Summer is automatically disqualified since, you know, school's out for the summer.

I would have ranked both Boyz N the Hood and Ferris Bueller ahead of Heathers [/ducking], but it's not a travesty.

Saw 31 on the list, fwiw.

Oh, and you should probably mention that some of the links on that site are NSFW.

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

I haven't seen five of the top 10.

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

Yeah, I didn't see that one either. But then it's all the way down to Gregory's Girl at 29.

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

Clueless at #7, are you kidding me? Entertaining movie, yes. Movie that I'm going to make sure my kids watch, no.

 

Re: Top 50 teenage movies

I've seen 41 of them...

Shotty, Election is fucking tremendous. Of all the films on that list my top three are Fast Times, Heathers and Election. All three are probably among my top 10 favorite comedies...
