@GameBeginnerGirl is my friend because we both know what it’s like to have people be jealous of us
One time I was selling books for Reese Witherspoon (she was promoting a cookbook or something) and this really creepy looking guy in line unzipped his shirt at the last minute to reveal this homemade Clueless shirt and her security people took him away before he got to get his book signed.
she’s not even in Clueless
I meant Alicia silverstone lmaooo

People have some pretty good lists cooking here.
This is not a perfect list - some rewatchable classics, some I only saw once in the theater and left an impression.
I was tempted to put the Secret Life of Walter Mitty, which I only saw once, and I kind of like the vibe of, but I think that’s just because my algorithm keeps showing me clips of that recently!
Scott Pilgrim vs The World
Life of Pi
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Baby Driver
Conclave
Only Yesterday
Princess Mononoke
Blazing Saddles
Collateral
Hunt for the Wilderpeople
And we’re both named after famous singers of the past who now do infomercials!
I actually just watched this the other day for the first time. Crazy how much everyone is still trying to make one this good lol
