#87 (AFI):
Fast Times as Ridgemont High
Year: 1982
Directed by: Amy Heckerling
Written by: Cameron Crowe
Starring: Phoebe Cates, Sean Penn, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Judge Reinhold
Seanbaby: This seems like the kind of thing a robot would pick to try to trick us into thinking it wasn't a robot. I like the movie, but I was just at high school six years ago. The American Film Institute members haven't been to high school for about 70 years and 3 mummification ceremonies each.

#87 (IFLS):
Barcelona
Year:
Directed by: Whit Stillman
Written by: Whit Stillman
Starring: Taylor Nichols, Christopher Eigeman, Mira Sorvino
Seanbaby: Here's an excerpt from the Internet Movie Database's user review of Barcelona: "...despite being a comedy [Barcelona] does at least examine the serious issue of American perceptions in foreign countries." What? Does the Movie Database only accept film expertise from the insane? When did the perception foreigners have of us become a serious issue? They can perceive whatever they want about us, they're the ones that think our McDonalds is a delicacy and that our Starsky and Hutch is cutting edge modern action drama. They even like David Hasselhoff. See, foreigners not only love America, they love the crap we throw away.
