I know I seem indiscriminate when it comes to movies (and I really am), but I just watched Mean Girls and really liked it. Tina Fey's screenplay totally caught the essence of high school life and the message was nice even though it strayed slightly into the cheese-zone. All of the SNL bit parts were so fab (the permissive boob job mom, the clueless parents, etc).
Maybe I was especially connected to the storyline because some of us can relate to having middle school lesbian rumors dog us through high school (and some of us can still feel the undying hatred for some of the perpetrators.) I'm not saying it was me, but... okay, we all know it was me.
