Guest Downhome Report post Posted May 28, 2003 From www.comingsoon.net if you are currious... Avril Lavigne's hit single "Sk8er Boi" is heading to the big screen with Paramount Pictures optioning the song and hiring David Zabel to adapt its words into a feature film to be produced by studio-based MTV Films and Alphaville. The song is about a teenage girl who rejects a skater boy with a crush on her because her friends didn't approve of him -- even though she secretly likes him. Years later, he becomes a famous rock star and she is left with regrets. The film keeps the Sk8er Boi title and will focus on the two teens from different backgrounds and the social constraints in which they find themselves. ...I give you the food, now digest this and spit it out as you will. Sincerely, ...Downhome... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Downhome Report post Posted May 28, 2003 I just knew, fucking KNEW, that someone would adapt the song for film. I prayed it wouldn't happen, but apparently to no avail. Well, at least I don't have to worry about any American Idol shit movies coming out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2003 The premise of this movie is just awful. So some bitch turns a guy down cause her friends are stuck up and the guy becomes famous and can get any girl he wants. So we're supposed to feel sorry for the bitch who turned him down?

Guest Hogan Made Wrestling Report post Posted May 28, 2003 This is a sad reflection on our society. Western music is among the most diverse and entertaining in the world, and hundreds of fabulous artists have created great works over the years through a careful interweaving of thoughtful, humorous, or inspiring lyrics and outstanding musicianship. And given all that decades of great music has to offer, what has been chosen worthy of adaption to film? "Sk8er Boi" by Avril Lavigne. Someone kill me now.

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted May 28, 2003 Damn...talk about people overreacting. This plot has been used in many movies. It's just one of the many cookie cutter plots for romance movies. This plot was used in many different ways in the 80s. So just because it's based on a song this time, it isn't a sign of the apocalypse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
