4. I finally saw Donnie Darko a few months ago,
being perpetually behind the times, and what I took from it was self sacrifice for the greater good, and it made quite an impression on me.

6. Donnie Darko, but definitely Breakfast Club, and I know this movie was about college graduates
but I have to confess that St. Elmo's Fire is one of my favorite movies. For some strange reason it just hit me like a freight train.

7. I'm ordering the St. Elmo's DVD and soundtrack right now, and "Some Kind of Wonderful" came up
Should I toss this film in the cart? I'm tempted.

12. It's pretty good for a teen romance guy from the wrong side of the
tracks type of movie...

9. "Pretty in Pink"
I would be remiss if I didn't confess that my ex-gf's favorite movie from that era was Pretty in Pink.

10. I don't think I've ever seen one I could relate to.
I hated the few which I've actually seen. Breakfast Club was a group of diverse-but-intolerable whiners, St. Elmo's Fire was a group of less diverse but equally intolerable whiners. The fact is I've never seen a teen movie I could relate to or that I liked.

I've never seen Some Kind of Wonderful, can't judge that one.

13. Fast Times at Ridgmont High...
Edited on Tue Jan-27-09 10:43 PM by cynatnite
We had some real screwballs at our school. In addition to that, us girls were all wondering who would lose their virginity first and with who.

That movie still reminds me of high school to this day.

15. Donnie Darko and The Chumscrubber.
Children and teens are savage animals, and adults not much more than that. These films tell the truth.

18. Try "Donnie Darko".
You're not the average teen, thankfully.

21. I also could never relate to teen movies. Quadrophenia was an exception, however.
Again, about teens, but not aimed at teens.
