I think the joke with Janis in the 2004 movie was that she was Lebanese and Regina thought that meant lesbian. Maybe that's just a fan theory though.

Yeah I heard that. And I don't mean to imply that a girl who isn't super feminine must therefore be gay. But I still like that she is gay in the new movie.
Omg I had nooooo idea that was based on a book!! 😅😂 LOVED this movie back in the day! 🎉❤

Yeah! I mean, kind of haha. More like "inspired" by the book. And same, the original movie is so good!

Speaking of Rachel McAdams, can you please do a book vs movie on the Time Travelers Wife? I loved both and I would be interested to hear your thoughts

Three books made into one movie? I have a video for the second Traveling Pants movie which was based on three books.
‼️‼️‼️‼️ Coming back to this when I finally see the New one 😭🎀👚
I found the newest movie not very accurate of modern teenagers, and seemed to be more like what older people think modern teenagers are like. It was still fine though.
"Not apparent", eh? 0:56 So, what's your secret then...

There's nothing wrong with giving a movie a "2.75" rating, that's between 2.5 and 3.

Very true haha. I was basing it off letterboxd which just does half ratings. 2.5 is what I decided to give it though.
Anyone else like not really go through a really teenagery phase? Or was that just me?

I guess it depends on how you define a teenager phase. But I never experienced high school in the way we see in these movies lol.
Tina Fey royally screwed the author over. I’ve heard stories about Tina, but my God she is vicious and unethical.
