Totally agree with you... It's really bad, and has a predictable fairy tale ending.

They had to edit the film name from 'Angus, Thongs and full frontal snogging'

There's no need to be sexist.

Plus, the lead girl has got a maa-haaa-sive nose. The storyline was crap, the ending was predictable and well, I just generally didn't like it. I also realised I was the only male in the 250-seat (full) screen.

I loved how the BBFC referenced it...

The language includes a non-aggressive use of 'bi'tch' in a song title ('Bi'tch in Uniform') that a boy says he wrote for a girl when he was 'pissed off' with her. There are also plenty of uses of 's'lag', 'sl'ut' and 'sla'pper' as terms of mild abuse for a girl that the main character and her friends dislike. This language is never used aggressively and is just a part of the film's teen-speak.
The sex references include discussion of thongs, 'bazoongas', whether or not touching your own breasts was 'lesbiany' and the relative merits of the sliding scale of 'snogging'. Alongside these verbal sex references are some brief visuals of a girl stripping down to her underwear in her own bedroom, watched by her jealous rival. BBFC guidelines at '12A' state that 'sex references may reflect what is likely to be familiar to most adolescents but should not go beyond what is suitable for them' and these sit well within those limits.


whether or not touching your own breasts was 'lesbiany'

Aha, classic.

It's made by the people who created Bend It Like Beckham or something.
And because of that, suddenly they're dubbing the main actress to be 'The next Keira Knightley'. It's a joke. She'd never be anywhere near as good as Keira Knightley.

Looks like a crap film, crap actress, a shame that the makers of BILB or whatever the link is made something that seems so bad.

the actress in this probably wont be any more films.

it has nothing to do with the fact that 'most women have bad taste in film', the fact that this is clearly aimed at teenage girls, well females in general, will mean they are the demographics

id totally warn you if being sexist was on the warnable offence list
please dont do it again :)

she's meant to have a huge nose (: it's in the book that she thinks her nose is big.

I havent seen this yet, but I'm going to see it next Saturday and have seen a few clips/trailers so this is what I'm basing my post on.
The film is based on the the first two books by Louise Rennison, "Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging (original name of film) and "It's OK, I'm Wearing Really Big Knickers" but alot of the things have been changed and that's annoyed me, it says that Robbie and Tom are twins, they're not. It's supposed to be a girls school that Georgia goes too, whilst the boys go to Foxwood. Jas does not have a flicky annoying fringe anywhere in the book. Dave the Laugh isnt introduced in the first book, Sven and DTL are hardly in it at all. Georgia is meant to be have a big nose and I think they casted her really well, she was exactly how I imagined her to be. And also, they got rid of Mabs, Ellen, Jools and made a new character called Namita so they werent all white people and from what I've seen, Namita is not at all like Ellen whom she is supposed to be based on, she is not like "Erm, yeah... Isn't like... erm..." etc. And they havent made Wet Lindsay slimy or wet looking in the slightest, she's actually very pretty in the film.
I bet the majority of people that go and see this will not have read all nine books like myself and many other people I know.

Yes, it is aimed at teenage girls, that's the audience of the books too. It's bound to be teenage girls liking the book.

Also, I find it rather rude how whoever said that women have bad taste in films, that is so sexist. That obviously means everything that men like is right and brilliant. 8-)

If you're a teenage girl who hasn't read the books, I suggest you do as I think they'll be much more funnier and better than the film.

Why would you even admit that.

I liked the books, they made me laugh. I want to see it. Looks a bit too immature.
The title should really be Full frontal snogging. D: they changd it

Misawa

They probably changed it because the original title is horrible. The new is pretty dire but its much more fitting to a film.
