5
6	''Not Another Teen Movie'' is a 2001 AffectionateParody teen film directed by Joel Gallen and written by Mike Bender, Adam Jay Epstein, Andrew Jacobson, Phil Beauman, and Buddy Johnson, which essentially strove to do to HighSchool movies what ''Film/ScaryMovie'' did for horror.
7
8	While the basic plot of the film was taken from ''Film/ShesAllThat'', it also lifts from dozens of other films, from the more immediate references to ''Film/VarsityBlues'', ''Film/TenThingsIHateAboutYou'', ''Film/CantHardlyWait'' and ''Film/PrettyInPink'' to the additional allusions to '80s and '90s teen/college films including ''Film/AmericanPie'', ''Film/BringItOn'', ''Film/CruelIntentions'', ''Film/AmericanBeauty'', ''Film/NeverBeenKissed'', ''Film/FerrisBuellersDayOff'', and ''Film/TheBreakfastClub'' (an actor even directly reprises his role from the lattermost film!).
9
10	The film also boasts an AllStarCast including Creator/ChrisEvans in his film debut.
11	-----
12	!!This film provides examples of:
13	* ActorAllusion:
14	** Creator/PaulGleason reprises his role of Richard Vernon of ''Film/TheBreakfastClub''.
15	** Also Creator/LaceyChabert playing a parody of Creator/JenniferLoveHewitt's character in ''Film/CantHardlyWait''. Chabert and Hewitt both starred on ''Series/PartyOfFive''.
16	** The commentator at the football game praises ''Series/SabrinaTheTeenageWitch'' and Creator/MelissaJoanHart in the scene after she made her cameo. Hart also was in ''Can't Hardly Wait''.
17	** Ron Lester, who basically plays the exact same character he was in ''Film/VarsityBlues'' (like Gleason above). They even have a running countdown of how many concussions he has left to go before the movie ends, in reference to his ''Blues'' character's arc, which was about him being nearly killed from having too many concussions.
18	** Jake's father is also the father of [[Film/FerrisBuellersDayOff Ferris Bueller]].
19	** Creator/MollyRingwald as the Flight Attendant. Her lines are coated in irony, at one time even saying "Fucking teenagers" and scoffing. At one point she identifies a ''Film/PrettyInPink'' quote, to which Janey asks "Are you sure?" and Ringwald replies "Trust me".
20	** "The Slow Clap Guy" was played by the same actor who played Bogey in ''Film/TenThingsIHateAboutYou''.
21	** "The Other Token Black Guy" is played by Sean Patrick Thomas; Thomas appeared in ''Can't Hardly Wait'', ''Film/CruelIntentions'', and ''Film/SaveTheLastDance''.
22	* AdviceBackfire: Every bit of advice Catherine gives Jake to manipulate Janey is accompanied by a GilliganCut of him following that advice... badly.
23	** First is to gain her trust, which he does by defending her brother... who accidentally hits Jake in the confusion, prompting Jake to give him a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown, which gets the bullies he was ''previously'' fighting with to pull Jake off.
24	** Second, she tells him to pick a song with her name in it - he chooses "[[{{Music/Aerosmith}} Janey's Got]] [[AxesAtSchool a Gun]]", which gets security to taze her by interpreting the lyrics literally.[[note]]Not to mention that the name of the girl in the original song is spelled ''Janie''.[[/note]]
25	** [[RuleOfThree And third]], she advises him to put the icing on the cake... cue the [[{{Fanservice}} whipped-cream bikini]] mentioned below.
26	* AffectionateParody
27	* AirVentPassageway: Used to spy on the girls' locker room, complete with directional sign and warning of "[[{{Foreshadowing}} Maximum Capacity: 2 Adolescent Boys]]"
28	* AndThisIsFor: Jake does this a few times.
29	-->(''To Austin'') This is for taking Janey to prom!\
30	(''To Priscilla'') This is for hurting Janey at Preston's party!\
31	(''To Priscilla's weird-ass boyfriend'') This is for being really weird!\
32	(''To [[Film/AmericanBeauty her weird-ass boyfriend's bag.]]'') ... I'm not sure what that was for.
33	* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: In the IMDB parental guide, stuck in the middle of descriptions of nudity, fetishes, masturbation, etc. there's a line "contains sexual innuendo."
34	* ArtisticLicenseEngineering: The architecture of the school is a bit unusual. The girl's changing room and toilets are on the same floor as the basketball court, but there's at least one classroom beneath it. Unless the court has some ''very'' high foundations, this means that someone had the potentially life-threatening idea to put an arena-size room above several classrooms.
35	%%* ArtistsAreAttractive: Spoofed.
36	* AwkwardPoetryReading: There's a joke about Janey's StalkerWithACrush Ricky writing a creepy love poem, where he confesses to stealing her hair, and reciting it in front of the class. It ends with him in tears and the class (bar Janey, who remains oblivious) thoroughly disturbed. This isn't the first time he did this as one student says, "Not again" after hearing that the poem was about Janey. Even the teacher was reluctant to call on Ricky, only doing when it was clear none of the other students wanted to recite a poem.
37	* BaitAndSwitchComment: Occurs near the end of Prom.
38	-->'''Catherine:''' And for once... I wish a guy would take a dump on ''my'' chest.
39	-->'''Ox:''' ''That'' is appalling! [[ThatMakesMeFeelAngry That really upsets me!]] [[spoiler: I can't believe nobody's ever taken a dump on your chest!]]
40	** And before this, Mitch hands Amanda Becker his love note, and she calls him out on it.
41	--->'''Amanda''': I don't screw every pathetic guy that gives me a letter! [[spoiler: I give them handjobs]].
42	** Another when Janey is discussing how her mother died after going out to buy her a birthday present she really wanted.
43	---> '''Janey''': It was raining really hard that night...the roads were slippery...
44	---> '''Jake''': My god, Janey, a car accident?
45	---> '''Janey''': No. Cancer.
46	* BigGame: Parodied, of course.
47	* BigScrewedUpFamily: Jake's family: his dad wants him [[FollowInMyFootsteps to go to the same college that he did and have the same job he had]], his mom is willing to [[ParentalIncest sleep with him]] to complete the illusion, and his sister is endlessly trying to have sex with him. At first, it seems as though they are spoofing ''Film/CruelIntentions'' and that they are NotBloodSiblings until she affirms "only [related] by blood".
48	-->'''Jake:''' [[LampshadeHanging What is]] ''[[LampshadeHanging wrong]]'' [[LampshadeHanging with this family?]]
49	* {{Bowdlerise}}: The network TV version turns the "fuck my brother" line from "Prom Tonight" into "find a lover."
50	* BrickJoke:
51	** The conjoined twins really ''do'' make up one decent chick... [[spoiler:they wind up becoming Prom Queens]].
52	** The albino hippy at the start of the movie appears after the credits, this time mentioning that her retinas have burned out and she needs help... [[AllPartOfTheShow in song]].
53	--->'''Extra''': ''(Whispered)'' Quick, grab her guitar!
54	** During the film ''Film/TheBreakfastClub'', a piece of pimento loaf is tossed onto a statue. This movie's parody of that movie is filmed in the same library and starts with said piece of pimento loaf finally falling off of the statue.
55	* BringIt: "Oh, it's already been brought-en!"
56	* BrotherSisterIncest:
57	** Parodying the FlirtyStepsiblings from ''Film/CruelIntentions'', Catherine makes a determined effort to try to sleep with her ''biological'' brother ([[CrossestheLineTwice "Only by blood."]] is her rationalization when he points out the consanguinity). The brother is appropriately grossed out and never goes along with her intentions.
58	-->'''Catherine:''' So what if we have the same mother?/Tonight I'm gonna fuck my brother!
59	** Not to mention Janey's admission that after her mother died, she had to take over a lot of her responsibilities: "Cooking, cleaning, breastfeeding Mitch."
60	* TheCameo: Molly Ringwald, Creator/MelissaJoanHart, Sean Patrick Thomas. Joan Hart's can be seen as a parody of Sarah Michelle Gellar's cameo in ''Film/ShesAllThat''.
61	* ChekhovsGunman: A pair of twins conjoined at the temple. [[spoiler:They become prom queen at the end.]]
62	* CliqueTour: Parodied. The freshman orientation guide tells the students that there are no cliques or exclusive groups at the school, then immediately separates his tour group by stereotypes and tells them that those people will be their only friends for the next 4 years.
63	* ComicallyMissingThePoint:
64	** Combined with AdviceBackfire and NiceJobBreakingItHero. Jake's sister Catherine advises him that if he wants to get Janey's attention he must sing a song with her name in it. While Janey is taking an outdoor art class, Jake commandeers the school's PA system and sings [[Music/{{Aerosmith}} 'Janey's Got A Gun']]. One of the other students points a finger at her and shouts "She's got a gun!" Everyone except Janey screams and runs off, and the police converge on her; panicking, she runs, is wrestled to the ground by two cops and gratuitously tasered into insensibility.
65	** Later, their coach is fixated on whether or not Reggie-Ray can play - despite the trainer telling him the guy is ''comatose'' from the hit.
66	* CompositeCharacter:
67	** Most of the characters are basically the characters from ''Film/ShesAllThat'' combined with another teen film character (ex. Janey's dad is both the dad from ''Film/ShesAllThat'' and ''Film/PrettyInPink'', Jake's sister is Mac Silar combined with Kathryn from ''Film/CruelIntentions'', Ricky is Jesse from ''Film/ShesAllThat'' with Ducky from ''Film/PrettyInPink'' etc).
68	** Not to mention that Ox pretty much plays an exaggerated version of his character from ''Detroit Rock City''.
69	* ContrivedClumsiness: Parodied. Janey is already wet from jumping into the pool when Priscilla, sarcastically feigning clumsiness, spills a bottle of water on her. Janey reacts with humiliated tears.
70	-->'''Random Party-Goer''': That's gonna stain!
71	* CoveredInGunge: This happens to Janey and everyone else in the opening scene, as the result of a catastrophic encounter between her vibrator and her birthday cake. It happens again, turned up to eleven, with the scene with the Dainty Girl on the toilet.
72	* CrowdSong: The one before prom. Lampshaded immediately afterward: the participants look at each other and leave awkwardly.
73	* DeconstructiveParody: While the entire movie serves as this to some degree, [[http://youtu.be/v1uRRcsEsnA the scenes with Molly Ringwald]] take the cake.
74	-->'''Creator/MollyRingwald:''' Let me give you a little piece of advice here, ''Jake''. Why don't you lose the "I'm the cute and sensitive popular boy with the big sideburns" routine? It's just too pathetic. And for once tell Janey what's true in your heart. Stop being such a little bitch! ...Oh, and you, Janey, little miss "[[WrongSideOfTheTracks other side of the tracks]] [[RuleAbidingRebel awkward rebel-girl]] with the [[SmartPeopleWearGlasses pseudo-intellectual glasses]]." Why don't ''you'' wise up to Jake's bullshit, [[LoveMakesYouDumb and stop being such a dumbass]]?
75	** [[RuleOfFunny Unfortunately]], ''both'' of them take her advice, with Jake laying flat-out the realistic results from such a scenario, and Janey chalks it up to a speech from ''Film/TheKarateKid1984''.
76	** Jake's throw during the big game goes ''wildly'' off-target, as he hadn't even been given practice time since Marty's death. For bonus points, he winds up beaning Reggie-Ray, taking out his last concussion.
77	-->'''Announcer''': That has to be the ''worst'' pass I've ever seen - ever.
78	** After the big musical numbers, the music cuts out... and they're still in the same pose, as the scene didn't dissolve into another, so they hold it until it finally cuts.
79	* DepravedBisexual: ''Catherine'', ranging from MayDecemberRomance to BrotherSisterIncest. She's implied to have slept with everyone in school, is willing to sleep with any hot stranger she hasn't slept with yet, attempts to seduce her own brother and his love interest Janey and then french kisses a woman old enough to be her grandmother.
80	* DisneyCreaturesOfTheFarce:
81	** During the "Prom Tonight" sequence, a nude Areola sings out her window while Disney-style cartoon birds appear and sing with her.
82	-->Look at me, my breasts are perky, yes?
83	** The birds are, of course, [[StealthPun blue tits]].
84	** May count as a ShoutOut to ''Grease'', the birds are nearly identical to the ones Sandy interacts with during the cartoon opening credits.
85	* {{Droste Image}}: When Jake first looks at his own headshot while entering school, then walks by a second picture featuring himself looking at its own headshot as it happened a few seconds ago.
86	* DrunkOnMilk: Janey gets drunk on non-alcoholic beer at the WildTeenParty.
87	* EstablishingCharacterMusic: Every Amanda Becker's arrival scenes are always accompanied by the opening of "Can't Fight This Feeling" by Music/REOSpeedwagon.
88	* EngineeredPublicConfession: Austin manages to get Jake to out himself in regards to the bet by making it ''look'' like he was about to tell Janey through a SilentWhisper.
89	* {{Expy}}: Aside from the StockCharacters already mentioned, Ox is a blatant Expy of [[Film/AmericanPie Oz]], what with only being a single letter off on the name, and having the same attitude towards sex and love that Oz ended the first movie with.
90	* FanDisservice:
91	** Lampshaded with the "Dainty Girl", in a ShoutOut to the bathroom scene in ''Film/DetroitRockCity'' (except with [[ToiletHumor an unending stream of poo]]). As an added bonus, an Mr. Keller is heard berating today's youth for their crude taste in humor, right before the ceiling collapses and [[spoiler:showers him in the girl's excrement]].
92	--->"That kind of make me [[FanDisservice sad in pants]]."
93	** The scene of Jake's sister, Catherine, frenching with an old woman. Even an elderly woman who finds Mia Kirshner attractive would find the ridiculously long strings of saliva between their lips more redolent of the slime in a horror movie.
94	* FloorboardFailure: Janey's slow-motion entrance down the stairs of her home is somewhat undermined by this, compounded by the stair carpet, landing table, stair rods and sundry stairs ''and'' other bits of the house falling on top of her.
95	-->'''Janey''': ImOkay.
96	* FollowInMyFootsteps:
97	** Jake's dad has Jake's life plotted out to the last detail, reflecting everything ''he'd'' done right down to introducing him to a great woman to start dating and eventually marry - [[ParentalIncest meaning Jake's mother]].
98	** Later, Janey sees "Dad's Wall of Jake's Accomplishments", which includes a picture of Jake's Princeton Graduation... with a cut-out of Jake's face sloppily pasted over his own.
99	* FreezeFrameBonus:
100	** Several, such as silly posters in the school and the departure board at the airport, showing Green Air 066 to Tokyo, Tokyo Air 1067 to Greenland, Equator Air 3742 to [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Equator]], [[{{Joisey}} Jersey Air]] 009 to Florham Park, and Foreign Air 2300 to Europe.
101	** At the Big Game, one of the North Compton Wildcats' uniforms reads "[[HoYay Very Tight End]]", and one of the Wasps is "Extra".
102	* FunnyBackgroundEvent: While Mitch, Ox, and Bruce discuss the challenges of getting laid, we hear the announcement "The sex club is meeting after school today" over the intercom and see a bare-assed girl [[WallBangHer having sex against a window]].
103	* GagEcho: Jake says "See you in English" to Janey, infuriating [[ChildhoodFriendRomance Ricky]] in the process.
104	* GenreSavvy: Several characters in the film are very aware of teen comedy conventions, explicitly commenting on them as they occur. Jake and Ricky even try to one-up each other in their competition over Janey by citing the advantages their respective roles have.
105	* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Subverted in the scene where Catherine frenches an old woman, which is made repulsive. Also subverted in Janey's "transformation", when Catherine looks about to kiss her, then about to go down on her.
106	* GlassesAndPonytailCoverup: Parodied, obviously, with Janey Briggs being the most unattractive girl ever for having glasses and a ponytail, with everyone reacting appalled. When her date's sister pseudo-erotically removes them, everyone reacts as if she has become the most attractive girl in the world, and asking who she is at prom.
107	* TheGlassesGottaGo: This plus taking her hair out of a ponytail is all Janey needs to be revealed as BeautifulAllAlong.
108	* HighSchool: Creator/JohnHughes High School, in fact. The bulletin board out front reads: "Monday - Orientation", "Wednesday - Preston's Party", "Friday - Homecoming Game", "Saturday - Prom".
109	%%* HighSchoolSweethearts: Lampshaded.
110	* HollywoodTourettes: "Give me a 'W'. Give me a 'Y'. Give me a - ''lick-my-pussy, ass cock shit''." {{Beat}}, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=_AB0WD0jGAA#t=544s then the audience at the football game]] ''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments actually shouts it back]]''.
111	* JustFriends: Janey doesn't even bother to tell Ricky she just likes him as a friend, as she's ObliviousToLove.
112	* LampshadeHanging: Especially in the advertising. They told you what kind of movie this was going to be and exactly which StockCharacters they were going to be using.
113	* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: All over the place again. For example, Janey and Ricky are both shown reading books on how to woo particular character types.
114	* LoveOverridesTheLaw: In the climactic chase, drivers let the LoveInterest run through traffic, but do their utmost to stall the RomanticFalseLead doing the same thing. For bonus points, they're yelling stuff like "Give up!" and "She doesn't love you!" at the latter.
115	%%* MagicalNegro: Played by Creator/MrT. Naturally.
116	* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: [[http://youtu.be/nuPd4L7_0uQ Marty]]. At least he got to go out a hero.
117	* ManipulativeBastard: Austin, when he gets Jake to confess to making a bet over Janey using a pointlessly sneaky ruse. The next day, it's revealed that he managed to convince Janey to be his prom date despite his obvious jerkass attitude.
118	* MetaGuy: Most everyone, but the two most consistently aware of the genre conventions are [[TokenMinority Malik]] and the unnamed tour guide played by a pre-''Series/HowIMetYourMother'' Josh Radnor: "Who would have guessed this school was filled with professional dancers?"
119	* MissingMom: Janey's mom died of cancer when she was young. After this she had to step up and do things her mom formerly did, including [[BlackComedy breastfeed]] her little brother.
120	* MixtapeOfLove: Ricky tries to declare his love to Janie with a mixtape. Janie, {{oblivious\|ToLove}}, puts it in a stack with the many other mixtapes he's given her.
121	* MoodWhiplash: After Jake reaches the airport...
122	-->'''TSA Agent''' (''After Jake trips the metal detector'') ...ah, hell, just go! (''Woman trips it'') Freeze, bitch!
123	* MrFanservice: [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger Captain America]] wearing a [[Film/VarsityBlues Whipped Cream Bikini?]] This film's got you covered.
124	-->'''Janey''': [[NotDistractedByTheSexy I don't like sundaes]].\
125	'''Jake''': Oh, it's not a sundae - it's a [[StealthPun banana split]].
126	* MsFanservice: Areola, the ever-naked foreign exchange student. Her subtitles even intentionally don't block her breasts.
127	* OnTheRebound: Parodied. After Jake breaks up with Priscilla, his dad (who wants his son to emulate him in every way) approaches him with the "perfect rebound girl", which turns out to be his willing mother. No wonder Jake considers himself the OnlySaneMan in the family.
128	%%* APartyAlsoKnownAsAnOrgy: Spoofed.
129	* PicturePerfectPose: A double subversion occurs when Jake Wyler poses next to a picture of himself... where he is looking at a picture of himself doing the exact same pose.
130	* PoorMansPorn: Janey uses the movie ''She's All That'' as a masturbatory aid.
131	* PoseOfSilence: Jake admits to the bet of turning Janey into the prom queen when Austin leans into Janey and whispers, "Jake is going to admit betting on you" into her ear.
132	* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: Bruce, a white kid who thinks he is Asian. A parody of (or possibly simply {{Homage}} to) Seth Green's character in ''Can't Hardly Wait'', who was white but thought he was black. At one point a couple of white boys mocked Bruce for this, [[HypocriticalHumour even though they themselves thought they were black]]. It's also probable he's a race-flipped parody of Long Duk Dong from ''Film/SixteenCandles'' - i.e. an AsianAndNerdy immigrant who is trying way too hard to be American.
133	* PygmalionPlot: The plot of the movie is a parody and high school version of this trope. Jake is challenged to turn Janey into the prom queen but ends up falling in love with her.
134	* QuestForSex: Parodied to hell and back with Mitch, Ox, and Bruce, who all pledge to get laid by prom - despite being ''freshmen''.
135	* RaceForYourLove: A rare competitive version, with Ricky vs. Jake.
136	-->'''Ricky''': Yes, but [[VictoriousChildhoodFriend but I'm the best friend and I have been in front of her face the whole time]]. She just-- she [[ObliviousToLove hasn't really realized it yet]], but she will.
137	-->'''Jake''': Well, I'm [[ReformedRake the reformed cool guy]] who's learned the error of his ways. She's gonna forgive me for my mistakes [[LadykillerInLove and realize that I really love her]].
138	-->'''Ricky''': ...Damn it! That's true.
139	%%* RedAndWhiteComedyPoster
140	%%* RoadTripAcrossTheStreet
141	* RRatedOpening: The opening scene of the movie involves Janey attempting to use a ''really'' huge vibrator. But then her dad and brother burst in just as she begins using it, because it's her birthday and they want to give her cake. Then her grandparents come in, and her priest, and a bunch of kids from the community center where she volunteers. Then her dog starts investigating why there's a humming sound coming from between her legs, and her efforts to hide it under the sheets are confounded her not being able to turn it off while it's still thrust between her legs and stimulating her, on top of which her family thinks that her [[ImmodestOrgasm increasingly dazed moans]] are [[ComicallyMissingThePoint because she's ill]], and the resulting tug-of-war with the sheets cause said vibrator to fly into the air and land in her birthday cake, which splashes thick white cake frosting all over the room but [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything especially all over Janey's face]].
142	* SceneryCensor: Done with Areola's crotch, although not with any other part of her body.
143	* SerenadeYourLover: In a parody of ''Film/TenThingsIHateAboutYou''. Jake realizes that singing "[[Music/{{Aerosmith}} Janie's Got a Gun]]" while at school was probably [[HilarityEnsues not the smartest thing to do]].
144	%%* SexAsRiteOfPassage
145	* ShakingTheRump: A portion of the parody of ''Film/BringItOn'' has the (white) cheerleaders doing this:
146	-->We're black, we know it, we shake our big booties and show it, [[HypocriticalHumor we ain't white, we ain't white, we definitely ain't white]]. Break it down [[NWordPrivileges niggas]]!
147	* ShapedLikeItself: A banner at the big game reads "Put the Cheerleader in Cheerleader!"
148	* ShellShockedVeteran: PlayedForLaughs (or course!) with Janey's dad, who was in [[UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar 'Nam]]. He sings about being TheAlcoholic since then for coping with it. He's later seen having an imaginary battle with Vietnamese Communists in his house.
149	* ShoutOut:
150	** Creator/JohnHughes High School and [[Creator/AnthonyMichaelHall Anthony Michael Dining Hall]].
151	** Marty's name being chanted is a blatant one to ''{{Film/Rudy}}''
152	** [[Film/FastTimesAtRidgemontHigh A cover of "Somebody's Baby"]] appears on the soundtrack.
153	** Jake pulls up to LAX and hears [[Film/{{Airplane}} announcements about which zone is for parking and which is for unloading]].
154	** During the [[Film/TheBreakfastClub detention scene in the library]], one of the subject area signs on the wall is for ''Film/WeirdScience''.
155	** Jake's flashback to Marty's death is a parody of ''Film/{{Rudy}}''.
156	* SilentWhisper: Austin whispers into Janey's ear, causing Jake to launch into a hysterical confession. Austin then explains to Jake that what he actually whispered into Janey's ear was [[EngineeredPublicConfession that Jake was about to launch into a hysterical confession]], thus reaffirming everything he just whispered into her ear.
157	* {{Slapstick}}: Janey is the brunt of a ''lot'' of comedic violence, and even Priscilla gets punched in the face by Jake (who also knocks out Austin and her [[Film/AmericanBeauty weird boyfriend with a video-camera]]), but poor Ricky gets the worst of it, being hit multiple times, even by a ''bus'' toward the end, with his last shot being getting beaten up.
158	* SlowClap: An extra exists [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KpoqynjV1g#t=1m25s whose sole purpose is to learn how to do this properly]].
159	-->'''Creator/MelissaJoanHart:''' Look, you can't just start a SlowClap at any old time. You gotta wait for the right moment.\
160	'''Guy:''' But... how do I know when it's the right moment?\
161	'''Melissa:''' Oh... you'll know.
162	** He finally spots the right moment after the RaceForYourLove sequence... [[spoiler: and gets beaten to the punch by [[ButtMonkey Ricky]], earning the latter a(nother) beating]].
163	* TheSongBeforeTheStorm: "Prom Tonight" is a parody of this.
164	* SpecificSituationBooks: Ricky (the UnluckyChildhoodFriend) reads a book called ''How to Get the Uniquely Rebellious Girl Who's In Love with The Popular Boy''.
165	* SpitTrailKiss: Between Jake's sister and an elderly woman pretending to be a teenager at the WildTeenParty. Probably one of the grossest ones ever recorded on film.
166	* SpontaneousChoreography: After Jake confesses to Janey about the bet, we're treated to an extended musical number with every main character in "Prom Tonight". The dance at the prom itself is the current page quote.
167	* StalkerShrine: Jesse is shown to have one of Janey in the extended version of "Prom Tonight".
168	* TheStinger: The albino guitarist appears again after the credits have rolled and sings about the fact that she is now completely blind. A guy is heard planning to steal her guitar.
169	* StockCharacter: This movie goes out of its way to include as many as possible, usually directly referencing the more famous examples from this genre. Lots of lampshading too.
170	* ToiletHumor:
171	** Catherine, in her very first scene, just has to tell Jake that guys she's with like to have anal sex, then she shits on their chests. He [[TooMuchInformation didn't ask to be told any of that]].
172	** The scene with the girl on the toilet naturally, who's comically loud while shitting and farting, then falls through the floor, with the contents spraying right on a teacher below her.
173	* TokenMinority: Hilariously and endlessly {{Lampshaded}}.
174	-->'''Malik:''' I am the token black guy. I'm just supposed to smile and stay out of the conversation and say things like: "Damn," "Shit," and "That is WACK!"''
175	** Also "I'm only in this song cause I'm a black guy".
176	** This is what happens when ''another'' TokenMinority [[http://youtu.be/SWhhPWyWCv0 shows up to the party]].
177	** At the start of his RaceForYourLove, Jake realizes that Malik is greatly under-appreciated as a character - [[HypocriticalHumor but has to cut short their conversation to get to the airport]].
178	* TooMuchInformation: Jake says this after Catherine tells him how the guys she sleeps with mostly want to do anal, then she [[ToiletHumor shits on their chests]].
179	* UnexplainedRecovery: Austin is carted out of the big game on a gurney with a broken leg, but then goes to prom the next night with no sign of it.
180	* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Areola being naked seems to go largely unnoticed. A sign in the principal's office says that the dress code is strictly enforced yet the principal doesn't have a problem with her being naked (and seems to see her as just another student), Janey seems a little weirded out without mentioning the nudity (but seems to have gotten used to it by the deleted scene where she's showing her to class, instead being confused by her accent changing), and another naked woman at a party complains that she wore the same outfit, but that's about it.
