My mom has said to me multiple times that nobody should graduate film school without having seen Election. I don't know if I agree with her yet but this is an amazing movie.

left side of the brain: matthew broderick is a good actor and he has range. the character he plays here is nothing like any other character he has portrayed, and he plays it well. besides, an actor is more than the movie characters he plays, and one role shouldn't define him, especially with his amount of skill.

right side of the brain: look at that ferris bueller man go

I don’t have a list of my favorite movie characters. Why would I? But if I DID, Paul would be at the top.

The Tracy Flicks have won. We live in their world now. Though they will never be popular, or cool or well liked, they will never be defeated. Alexander Payne tried to warn us but it was too late.

the original parks and rec

my thoughts throughout this movie:

1. reese witherspoon plays unhinged, ambitious characters better than anyone else

2. i would vote for the himbo why lie

3. wait maybe i would vote for the himbo’s lesbian sister 

4. what do i have to do to become a part of the himbo and lesbian sister’s family bc i love them both so much

5. tammy being happy about getting sent to immaculate heart bc she’s going to be surrounded by hot girls, lady bird just couldn’t do it 

6. wait does this movie have the same ending as portrait of a lady on fire or am i going crazy

Dear God, thank you for all your blessings. You've given me so many things, like good health, nice parents, a nice truck, and what I'm told is a large penis.

First viewing in at least 10 years. Holds up really well. And I like that it's called ELECTION, not *THE* ELECTION, because it’s as much about the agonizing process of making choices in life as it is the results of a single student council president race.

women who work toward positions of power that were intended for men, and are still occupied mostly by men, are not annoying but ambitious and admirable, thank you for coming to my TED talk

Endlessly fascinating as political allegory, and one of the few truly great modern satires. But my thing with Alexander Payne is that he evokes his Midwestern milieu so perfectly. I always find myself sinking into things like haircuts and knick-knacks and the way living rooms and classrooms look. Details matter.

You either die a Ferris Bueller or live long enough to see yourself become Jim McAllister.

Bootiful KiNo

I may not know much, but I do know that right there is a himbo. Metzler siblings supremacy.

1999, truly a great year for film.

those voicemails haunt me

poor paul metzler - i would vote for u

Harika 1 okul seçimi. Reese Witherspoon, okulun tek öğrenci işleri başkanı olmak ister. Rakibi hiçbir şeyden anlamayan ama okulun en popüler çocuğu Chris Klein ve sevgilisini elinden aldığı intikam ateşiyle yanan üvey lezbiyen kız kardeş Jessica Campbell. Filmin içindeki olaylar o kadar iyi ki, dış ses olayına takılmıyoruz. Şok edici. Filmin sonunda, kazanan hakkıyla Tansu Çiller ve Jennifer Juniper. Ben kimsenin hakkını yemem. Hakkımı da yedirmem.

Matthew Broderick was very good at playing an unlikable character. Almost as if he committed vehicular manslaughter and got away with it

the editing made this movie

A curious, character-driven dramedy whose story I just couldn't get into, this film offers a somewhat nihilistic examination of how some life events can be paradoxically life-altering but also insignificant...an exercise in total apathy

In my mind, this is just a really depressing sequel to Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

more people need to be like Paul

8/10

Paul is such an awesome character.

Everyone in this movie does really good and it’s just a fun movie. Some of the jokes in this movie were hilarious.

Watch this movie be a sequel to Ferris Beuller. I can see the explanation now: Ferris breaks up with his girlfriend and does the ultimate prank which ends up being illegal. He runs away and changes his name and he kind of changes too. He gets a job as a teacher and now here we are.
