** Ms Meyers comes across as a SternTeacher, but after [[spoiler: Leslie's death]], she reveals that she lost her husband. In the 2007 movie, the way her voice breaks as she says "I didn't want to forget". Not to mention that [[spoiler: losing Leslie]] clearly saddens her as well.
Added DiffLines:
* CantUnhearIt: [=AnnaSophia=] Robb may as well ''be'' Leslie for how beloved her performance tends to be among fans. This is especially surprising on account of the character getting a GirlinessUpgrade from the book.
Added DiffLines:
* ImprovedSecondAttempt: The 2007 film is considered a superior adaptation to the 1985 TV movie, which wasn't approved by Katherine Paterson's estate, and David Paterson stating that "no one on our side was happy with the finished product". He was a producer on this version, and the casting and production values are considered far better.
Added DiffLines:
* LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt: Several book fans expected the movie to soften or remove [[spoiler: Leslie's shocking death entirely]] to make it more marketable in the 2000s market. Indeed, they faced trouble getting studios to pick it up because of that, with a lot of them [[spoiler: trying to have Leslie get into a life-threatening accident that she would recover from at the end]].

* {{Narm}}: The book was written in the 1970s and as such the 2007 film has a lot of slang that's a little outdated. It's usually the taunts coming from the bullies.
* NarmCharm: The "free the pee" scene is silly but also amusing too.
