WELCOME BACK TO THE FINAL EPISODE OF YES ANOTHER TEEN MOVIE! This week we're diving into Renée Rapp's cleavage... oops, we mean Mean Girls The Movie The Musical that no one asked for. Thank you Tina Fey for giving us the perfect vehicle to end this podcast on a high, and avoid having to critique the timeless perfection of the original Mean Girls!! Featuring time-travelling Ms Norberry and Mr Duvall, 12-year-old Cady and Aaron and a cameo from Heather's no. 1 lady Lindsay Lohan, you just know tha...

Welcome back to our 69TH episode, lovely YATM listeners! This week/fortnight/month (we're still figuring out our cadence, okay?) we're back in your earholes with the film that defined a generation. Boomers had Rebel Without a Cause, Gen X had Say Anything, and ageing Millennials like Jemma and Heather had Juno, FORSHIZZ one of the best teen movies of all time. Once you get past the self-consciously wacky dialogue, there's an incredible soundtrack, toxic masculinity commentary, and Michael Cera i...

We're honestly doing the lord's work, watching all these movies so you don't have to. You're welcome.

I hear those sleighbells ringling, jing-jing-jingling too! And something else - what's that sound? It's the sound of a YATM CHRISTMAS SPECIAL coming over the airwaves, as fun and festive as a winter sleigh ride. Welcome one and all to the snowy world of Lindsay Lohan & Chord Overstreet, who play our romantic leads in Netflix's latest made-for-clickbait Christmas rom-com (and we're being generous with the com). There's physical comedy! There's snow! There's a failing local business! There's p...

A delicious cocktail of 'Strangers on a train' and a shitload of teen movies
Nov 01, 2022•57 min•Ep. 67
Everyone get into the YATM time machine! We're going all the way back to the 1950s this week to what might be the FIRST EVER teen movie, Nicholas Ray's 1955 classic Rebel Without a Cause. But was the film that launched a thousand pop culture references actually any good, or was it just a posthumous obsession with James Dean's own misspent youth that put this movie on the map? You're going to have to listen to find out.

We meet again, Zac Efron. Or are we meeting Matthew Perry? Err, pretty confusing stuff this is. And we're not the only ones who are confused (looking at you Leslie Mann and Michelle Trachtenberg...) Everyone, hop into that DeLorean and travel back with us to the year 2009 (or 1989? We told you this was confusing).

OK, so we took a little break! Jemma actually went into a 30-day coma after the trauma of watching Senior Year, and now she's awake she's still talking like it's May 2022. Rebel Wilson coming out is old news, Jemma! This of course mirrors the experience of our 'heroine' (and I use that word very, very lightly) Stephanie in Senior Year, who falls into a coma following a cheerleading accident and wakes up 20 years later still feelin' like a teen, but still with the hots for 37 year old men. There ...

Tall Girl 2: This Time I'm Taller. Tall Girl 2: PS I'm Still Tall. Tall Girl 2: 2 Tall 2 Function. Whatever you call it, this movie is a giant insult to the concept of cinema. and the world would be a better place if it had been consigned to the giant dumpster outside the back of Netflix HQ. No, I'm not going to elaborate... just listen to the episode if you care so much.

After watching three of these godawful movies we never want to hear about Hardin and Tessa again! Never we tell you! (Until the next one comes out...)

Welcome back to our 60th episode! If YATM was a person, we'd be close to collecting our pension by now. But don't worry, we all know that millennials will have to work forever, and we're no exception! We're still putting our noses to the grindstone for you, the lovely listeners, and slogging our way through the sequel to After - After We Collided. And boy, did this movie make us regret ever complaining about The Kissing Booth . In this film, we've got cruelty to homeless people, violence against...

A Walk to Remember? More like A Film to Forget!! Ha, ha, ha. If you like terrible jokes like that, you'll love our latest episode, in which we eviscerate this sentimental teen non-classic which was originally set in the 50s and, honestly, should have stayed there. Disclaimer: Jemma and Heather are not liable for any auditory issues that may arise from you blaring 'Only Hope' by Switchfoot 200 times on repeat after listening to this episode. It's the only good thing about this movie.

Have you always wondered what the movie is that birthed this podcast? Well, it's this one: a 2018 Netflix, synth-pop dream starring Shannon Purser and our main man Noah Centineo (in probably the only role we actually tolerate him).

It's the film you've all been waiting for! The gender-swapped remake of She's All That hit our Netflix screens last month, starring Tiktok star Addison Rae and sundry members of the original cast who were free that day. (Not Freddie Prinze Jr, though - we're still trying to figure out whether he's Padgett's dad who lives in Florida.) But don't worry, teen movies haven't got too modern in 2021 - the Catcher In the Rye-reading, beanie-wearing male lead in this film could give Dan Humphrey a run fo...

We're back!!! And we're kicking off senior year with a banger (the podcast episode that is. Definitely not this arse of a movie.) Will Elle get to do everything off that cursed bucket list? Will Lee finally stop being a whiny, spoiled bitch? Is Molly Ringwald actually gonna sell the beach house? Tune in and find out!

Summer! Summer! Summer! It's our last episode before SUMMER BREAK, and it's a corker... Kind of. Why did Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen have to be one of the most disappointing teen adaptations of the aughts while simultaneously being the most sartorially significant? As usual, we blame Disney. Along with Burberry outfits, we've got Megan Fox's first star turn, a MAJOR Hollywood dad award to present, and not one, not two, but THREE makeover scenes. Ft. those thigh-high lace-up Converse. Yo...

What's your damage, listeners?! In this episode we're dissecting the ultimate high school mean girl movie, the one that paved the way for Regina George & Cady Heron's frenemyship and dared to go where no teen movie has gone before. Prepare for croquet, pâté, coloured tights and just a light sprinkle of murder. More importantly, you're finally going to find out why mineral water is gay and why Heathers has haunted Jemma and Heather (Renton, not Chandler, Duke or McNamara) since we first recor...

This week we're travelling to Rome in the year 2003 to watch Lizzie McGuire skip her amazing school trip and hang out with Mr. 70's-vibe-sleazeball-extraordinaire Paolo instead, while getting ready to perform at the Colosseum. And all that at the ripe age of 13. We're here for it. "Sing to me, Paulo!"

Want to watch a film that functions as a perfect time capsule for the year 2006? Want to see Ashanti in a cheerleading outfit? Want to get the song Dirty Little Secret by All American Rejects stuck in your head on a continuous loop for the next fourteen days? Well, there's only ONE film out there for you... and John Tucker Must Die, it IS you. Other quintessentially 2006 topics covered in this episode include but are not limited to: Sophia Bush, outdated opinions on veganism, My Super Sweet Sixt...

In this episode we take a welcome break from watching movies about privileged teens in huge houses navigating the trauma of choosing between Ivy Leagues, and instead turn our attention to a movie that deals with some REAL SHIT. The Citizen Kane of '00s dance movies, everything about Save The Last Dance rules. Well... almost everything. Everything except Julia Stiles.

Welcome to our episode in which we talk about the movie "To all the Boys I've loved before part 3: Ps. I'm still very much into boys." Is our gal Laura-Jean still into boys? Or just into Peter Kavinsky? Or maybe into NYC? Listen and find out, peeps!

Vampires and werewolves and Kristen Stewart, oh my! We're back, and this week's episode is coming to you live from FORKS, WA. Just kidding, but when the pandemic's over we will be posting a Go Fund Me link to get us over there for a live broadcast on Stephanie Meyer Day, and all the mushroom ravioli we can eat. Don't get the significance of the mushroom ravioli? That's OK, neither did we. In fact, there's a lot that confused us about this film, such as: 'why is every single boy at this tiny fuck...

Happy 2021, guys, gals and non-binary pals! We're starting off the new year with - not quite a splash - more like a tepid ripple, with this absolute yawn-fest of a film that features Hilary Duff trying to catfish her mum using a picture of Mr Big - surely EVERY 2005 mum's biggest fantasy, right?! Cue Hilary learning to be vulnerable and Heather (Locklear, not our host) learning to be a halfway decent parent, via some lame slapstick, cringey Scrabble jokes and, of course, people pretending to be ...

There are so many movies out there called "Crossroads" but we're obviously talking about the 2002 classic starring none other than BRITNEY, BITCH, Zoe Saldana and Taryn Manning. This movie scored high in the bingo segment and in our hearts because it's truly a delightful watch and it has rekindled our love for Britney and her number one hit "I'm not a girl, not yet a woman" (Bonus: Heather and Jemma give a beautiful rendition of this classic pop tune)

The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants are back, and so are we! But how much has changed three years into the future? Lena's still shite at drawing, Tibby's still #edgy, Carmen's still downtrodden and Bridget's off somewhere out foreign again (you can tell by the music). Join us to cringe over some really bad Shakespeare puns (thanks, weedy English guy whose name I've already forgotten at the time of writing) and for some #realtalk about how high school boyfriends are best left in the past where...
