The concept of a chick flick is pretty messed up from the start when you think about it. We know we're not the first people to point this out or anything, but we remember hating it when we were younger, not understanding why films had to be put between these barriers before people could start enjoying them. There are some "chick flicks" out there that are pretty amazing if you ask us and some people will never have seen them just because they were referred to as chick flicks when they first came out. This sort of stuff can be really poisonous if you're not careful!
All of this is a way for us to come up with an excuse for liking chick flicks, something that meant we wanted to put a quiz together, one that both men and women could try to see who was the real chick flick master. We've kept it to the 90s, purely because those are the films from our childhood. Honestly, it's nice to be able to write this down without feeling ashamed or pretend that these films are a guilty pleasure. We love these films and we don't care who knows it!
So, are you ready to see if you can beat your significant other when it comes to 90s chick flick trivia? Let's take a look at who knows what by getting started.
Who Plays Cher In Clueless?
For our money, Clueless is probably the best chick flick out there because it shows that there is duality in us all and that, no matter who we are or what other people are like, every single human being has the capacity to change who they if they want to. That is an important message and we're glad that it was put across in a film that a lot of young women will have seen. Hopefully, they took the message in!
Which Now Famous Actor Plays Cher's Eventual Love Interest?
We used to love it when we saw actors that we already knew as adults in films when they were younger. Now that we're older, we've been able to watch actors who were famous when we were young grow up into more important and higher paying roles. Sure, it can all go horribly wrong, but if you're lucky and you pay your cards right, you can end up as one of the most highly paid actors across the entire world.
What Is The Name Of Cher's Best Friend?
It's great that a film that could've so easily been entirely whitewashed, focusing as it does on a rich white neighborhood, the people making it still chose to make the main supporting character a black woman. However, it's a real shame that the actress that played her has since become a Conservative mouthpiece that muddies her reputation with an otherwise great movie. Seriously, go look up some of the stuff that this woman says about minorities and you will be surprised.
Which Character Does Paul Rudd Play In Clueless?
Paul Rudd is one of those people that we're hugely jealous of because he seems to have made a deal with the devil to never age whatsoever. Look at a picture of him from twenty years ago and we reckon you couldn't tell the difference between then and now. We have no idea how these people manage it but they're absolutely smashing it when it comes to keeping themselves young. Maybe it has something to do with having a lot of money?
What Affluent Area Does Cher Live In?
We don't know about you, but we're usually much more interested in films and narratives that take place in poorer areas as they tend to show real life, a life that is lived by most of the world's population. However, sometimes films set in areas like this can be good as well, they just tend not to be anywhere near as good when compared to the other type of film. Seriously, watch films about poor minorities instead because they're more interesting.
What Is The Name Of Brittany Murphy's Character In Clueless?
We had such a crush on this character when we were younger and we don't care who knows it because this woman was awesome. Our least favorite thing about the film is the fact that it's implied this poor girl needs to change when she's actually the best thing in it from the moment the film starts. We may still have a bit of a crush on her to this day by the sounds of things! What do you guys think?
What Did Kate Winslet Do With Leonardo DiCaprio To Break The Ice On The Set Of Titanic?
It's no secret that these two really hit it off when they met on the set of Titanic, to the point where the two of them continue to be friends to this day, which is no surprise considering this is what she did to break the ice! Honestly, there's nothing better than being a creative who meets one of those people that you know will support you and inspire you for the rest of your life, no matter what happens.
Who Directed Titanic?
We really don't like the fact that there is an entire industry based on people making films that are almost grossly expensive, films that are made to just rake in as much money as possible. There is definitely a place for spectacle in film but it has never hit us in the same way as something that is much more subtle. If your movie is subtle, it has to do a lot more to keep the attention of the audience.
How Much Did It Cost To Make Titanic?
See, this is what we're talking about. No matter what the answer is to this question, it is an insane amount of money to be throwing at a film and we've continued to up the budgets of these blockbusters ever since the release of Titanic. We can't believe that the artistic merit of these films is anywhere close to that of a film that tries something new or different for a lot less money. People just don't want to hear about it...
Which Actor Did The Studio Want To Play Jack?
There are a lot of stories in the film world about the creative push behind the project often being undercut by the people who are fronting the money or putting the film out there once it's completed. This is what happens when capitalism and art are forced together and you can see it in pretty much every creative medium that has been put out there for you to buy. We hate it and there is no way you could sway us on that.
How Many Weeks Did Titanic Stay At #1 In The US Box Office?
All of this being said, we do feel happy for the creative people who work on these sorts of projects as it must be such a rush and a thrill to have something like this happen to you. You put all of this work into something for all of the right reasons and your efforts are rewarded as audiences flock to see what you've created. There's something really warm about this which almost makes it worth all of the capitalist undertones that come with it.
What Were Most Of The Props Made Of To Protect The Stuntmen In Titanic?
It's crazy to think that there was once a time when nobody really cared about this sort of thing. As much as some people in the modern world like to complain about the concept of health and safety, there was once a time when we would throw people onto a movie set with various hazards and see what would happen. Take a look at the amount of times people died back in the day as well. It was a pretty brutal business!
What Illness Did Kate Winslet Contract While Filming Titanic?
Despite all of the health and safety regulations though, you can't stop some people from doing stupid things and sometimes, people are going to get ill. Believe it or not, Winslet refused to wear a wetsuit during her scenes in the water, which lead to her contracting an illness and almost quitting the feature until Cameron was able to convince her to stay on with the project. Just put the wetsuit on Kate! You would've saved yourself the hassle in the end.
Who Played Josie In Never Been Kissed?
Look, we're willing to admit that this one is a total guilty pleasure and we've got no right to argue that it's even close to being brilliant, but there is something about this film that just feels warm and fuzzy to us! It might just be nostalgia talking, but we think there's something hiding underneath all the writing and all the flash that still holds up to this day. Watch it for yourself and see what you think. You may just agree...
Which Actor Known For His Stoner Comedies Made His Film Debut In Never Been Kissed?
It's weird to think about where we've come in our careers and where we actually started out in the first place. When our mothers would tell us that we had no idea what we would one day become, we didn't realize how accurate they would be! No matter where you start in this world, there's no telling where a bit of luck and hard work will get you if you try your best and go for it with all your might.
What is The Name Of Drew Barrymore's Production Company That Put Out Never Been Kissed?
Honestly, when you take a look at the most successful and the most famous in this world, they're always putting their talents towards new things and never resting on the success they've already had, which is something that we should all bear in mind as we move forward in this world. If you can find something you're passionate in, try and find more things to add to that list as well. You might be surprised by how much you enjoy doing.
How Old Is Josie In Never Been Kissed?
One crazy thing about Hollywood that we can never see changing is that they're always casting people to be completely ridiculous ages for the age the actors really are. This gets truly insane when you see women who are way too young to be with the old men they're acting with. We're not saying these age gaps don't exist in real life or anything, but they happen way less frequently than they do in the movies. Seriously, now we've pointed it out you won't be able to ignore it.
What Newspaper Does Josie Work For?
Working for a newspaper is what a lot of writers dream of when they're younger or just starting to get into the industry, but sadly it just doesn't work out for most people, something that won't come as a surprise to a lot of people reading this. If you manage to get yourself on a newspaper team or writing a column for them freelance, make sure you hold onto that job because it's arguably one of the best jobs out there.
What Does Josie's Crush Teach At Her High School?
We think it's about time that movies got rid of this trope. Unless the entire film is about the complicated relationship between a teacher and their student, it should be in there. This is not one of those things that can just be thrown in towards the end, especially the student is much younger than the teacher. Not only is it bad writing, it can get pretty creepy as well. You know exactly what we're talking about here so don't pretend otherwise!
What Is The Name Of The High School In Which Josie Goes Undercover?
Is there anybody reading this that actually enjoyed their time at high school? We always get really freaked out when somebody in our life tells us they had a fun time at school because we absolutely hated it. There was some so horrible about it that we don't even enjoy talking about it to this day. It was just a bunch of people being told to act exactly the same while the rest of us were cast off as weirdos.
Who Did Heath Ledger Beat To Play Patrick In 10 Things I Hate About You?
One thing to think about next time you're watching a film is that we will never truly know how many people went for the role that you're currently watching. The person who gets it probably had to beat off so many different people to get there that it doesn't even bear thinking about. Try to imagine having to go up against that many people on a regular basis, just to continue working on the thing you're passionate about. Gives us panic attacks.
Which Shakespeare Play Is 10 Things I Hate About You Based On?
For some reason, Shakespeare seems to be a popular one when it comes to writing up the script for a romantic comedy as if there's no way of coming up with any new narratives. We've said before that we like this sort of borrowing and adaptation, but the amount that it happens is almost bordering on parody at this point. Maybe Hollywood needs to start thinking less about money and more about getting really good writers in to create something new.
Which Actor Played Cameron In 10 Things I Hate About You?
Do you think there truly are child actors who were able to properly decide what they wanted when they were that young or were they pretty much all forced into it by a selfish adult in their life? Honestly, we don't know what to think about this one, but it's pretty telling that if we said we wanted to be a lawyer at the age of six, we wouldn't be given training in it and sent out into the real world.
What Line Does Cameron Quote Directly From Taming Of The Shrew?
If you are going to copy and adapt, it's nice to see that these people make references and allusions to the work that came before it. That is really important if you ask us, even if most of the people watching are unlikely to get the reference you're making! As long as you're not wallowing in the past, a little nod to the camera like this can be really nice for members of the audience who get what is going on.
Which Jane Austen Novel Is Clueless Loosely Based On?
We're all about people taking a look at narratives from the past and turning them into modern adaptations. It can go bad but if it's done right, it can show a famous story to a generation of people who may not have seen it otherwise. We think this is important. Make sure you hire a good writer and you can make sure that this sort of thing never goes wrong if you ask us. Everyone start doing it some more!
