Are there any songs or short stories that discuss the issues this movie brings up, or any activities anyone can think of that we could do to spark conversation and keep things interesting? Obviously older man-younger girl relations issues will be discussed, but what else could we bring in- what could we ask the class to do, what games/quizzes/activities could we all do? Any recommendations about such a presentation would be appreciated very much. We have some ideas related to discussions mostly, but would love to hear any ideas anyone has. Thanks!

Interview with a Vampire is the first thing that comes to mind. Claudia and Louis' relationship where she never ages from her [7ish year old] form.

Hey! What happened to your plays?! I enjoyed reading your skits. \n\nAs to your actual question above..lol. She probably would although I didn't see the movie.

I have seen the movie. It's impossible to avoid bias in things like these. Clearly Al Gore was/is concerned about Global Warming, but  it's impossible to comment on what should/could/would have happened if things had been different in the election. \n\nI thought the movie was super informative and interesting. It definitely made me think about global warming. It's a really important subject and I think the movie does a good job of introducing the issue to people who might be less informed about it. Go check it out!

This film is crap! Sorry but dont waste your money!  My friend (in the photo) went to see it and the whole film is based on just two people, the girl is all mouth - she keeps saying she is gonna castrate the fella - and just keeps threatening, its like "just bloody do it ok"!\n\nIts a ok film for a boring night in, but not worth a trip to the pictures.

I love that movie!  It taught me some important lessons too.\n\nLesson was...life or friendship or love is more important than mere objects.  And that could go for concepts too---life is more important than tightly holding onto some concepts.

Funny you should bring that up. I just saw it a few hours ago. My personal views on the movie... Well, I though it was mostly funny. I just don't like that much cussing. I think it's kind of embarassing. Jack Black and Kyle Gass wrote almost all the songs in the movie. I thought the basic idea of the movie was interesting. And I didn't know Tim Robbins was going to have a cameo in it.

How about a DVD of his fav movie/sitcomm. Then there's choosing a really up-to-the-minute book (if yr cousin likes reading that is!) Or . . . I've gone blank - hope the above helped a bit!

Maybe before each event that would seem racist the students can write down what they think will happen and why.  For example, when the Mexican Locksmith is fixing the door, you can ask your class, would you let him fix it? why or why not? Would you trust him? Or you can stop the movie when the police chase down the film director and they can write down what they think will happen and why? What about in the beginning, when Sandra Bullock is walking and she gets closer to her husband, was she justified, why or why not? How did it make you feel.  After they write down your answer you show them what happens and see if what they expected to happen did actually happen.  Maybe you can just pick one specific event and have a discussion afterwards.

I saw this title on digital cable featured on On Demand. I wasn't sure if I wanted to watch it so late at night. But your feelings towards this movie has intrigued me enough to actually watch it this time! I have a book about gay rights and equality which I have yet to read. May even mention Paragraph 175...When I find out the name of the book I'll post here

Try to put the closed captioning on during that part of the movie.  If not, look at the end credits for it.  Sometimes the title of the song has nothing to do with the words, but you could try to listen to the songs on-line (like the samples before you buy) to confirm it.

Since nobody answered you yet, I thought I'd at least give you this info...\nHere's a link to a list of all the songs on the soundtrack, maybe you can figure out which song it is by the names listed, I've never seen the movie.\nhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0264323/soundtrack

I think there should be a separate rating for this movie.\nMebbe a rating for dead people? Coz anyone alive who watches this movie is gonna become a psycho. Lol\n\nPlease screen the movie for dead people:-P

Definitely "Status Quo."  \nIt portrays the reality of cliches in school, and pretty much how everyone just sticks to the status quo of their group.  The choreography for the cafeteria scene in the movie is pretty wicked too.

Sounds great but it's a lot different than the movies.\n\nYou will be together for at least 2 hours doing nothing but talking, you should prepare for that. And if he refuses don't judge him, maybe he's not ready for that yet.\n\nGood luck.

I completely feel you on this...I've seen that movie myself, and a few others.  There are so many questions, I don't understand how people can just ignore it...and in fact get mad at you for questioning it!  Isn't that the point of democracy, being allowed to examine what's going on and make an educated decision?  Don't let the mean remarks that you will inevitably get bring you down...you are a thinker, and that is to be commended!\n\nEDIT: Nikki, here is the link:  http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7218920724339766288&q=loose+change
