Flick Picks 2
The Ultimate Sequel
By Jennifer Gioia, staff writer
In September, I wrote an article titled "Flick Picks." It was a list of my personal favorite movies that get me into the mood for school. After the article was posted I was flooded with emails from teens sounding off on their favorite movies. So I decided—like all great movies—it's time for a sequel. But this time it's the movies you love, in your words.
"The movie that gets me pumped for school is the movie The Faculty starring Josh Hartnett and Elijah Wood. It makes me want to run to first period because I want to find out if there are any aliens taking over the teachers! Then there's the addition of Josh being so hot! I want to find out if there are any new guys in my school that are that hot!"

"8 Miles with Eminem and Brittany Murphy. I think the way the rap is at the end is so cool. Eminem puts all of them to shame. I think that Eminem is so cute Brittany Murphy is so lucky in this movie."
—Anonymous
"My favorite HAS 2B Legally Blonde!! Oh Yeah! Smart, beautiful women ROCK!! That's what I'm gonna B."
—Julie
"Grease with John Travolta and Olivia Newton John. I love this movie. These kids had so much fun at school even through their differences. It shows lifelong friendships and makes you think about all the days you have had a good time with friends and boyfriends."
—Taylor
"10 Things I Hate About You with Julia Stiles. Awesome movie! Poor Kat, her sister, Bianca can't date until Kat does and Kat has no interest in dating. Then she meets Jason who gets paid by Bianca's boyfriend to date Kat so Bianca can date him. Kat falls madly in love with Jason and he is madly in love with her. At Prom, Kat finds out that Jason got paid to take her out and they break up. Do you want to know what happens? Then watch the movie. I hate giving away the ending!"

"Seventeen Again with Tia and Tamera Mowry. This movie tells you to never let the one you love get away."
—Jess
"My pick is Mystery Alaska. If you're a hockey chick or dude you'll totally dig this movie. It's about a small town in Alaska that totally worships hockey. They have like this weekly hockey game called the "Saturday Game." So the hockey team the New York Rangers from the NHL challenges the players of the Saturday Game to a game of pond hockey like they play on the Saturday Game. Can the small town of Mystery win the game? Find out for yourself."
