Wait, so the dude's mom is pulling him out of homeschooling and sending him to public school... because he's failing? Somehow?? How the heck do you flunk out of _homeschooling,_ it's literally personalized one-on-one education?? And the solution is to instead toss him into the broken-ass one-size-fits-all system of American public school where the kids who struggle with the material fall behind and require extra help/tutoring after hours _anyway._ Seems like a bit of a lateral move to me. They should've just said they were sending him to public school because he needs to learn some humility and remember how to be a normal kid, because that's clearly what the real problem is.

[@shawnfields2369]

Exactly what I was thinking, dude. How can you do so bad that you fail home schooling? That doesn't even make sense.

33:07 toe to the front door is an old trope. tying a string to the doorknob, anchored around a heavy structure, and tied to your toe means you could fall asleep in the same room as the front door waiting for someone to come home and the act of opening the door would theoretically pull your toe so hard you would immediately wake up and ask where and who they've been with, and also force the gentlemen who came home with your daughter to wish her goodnight instead of coming in. normally the trope in the 50s household is if your parents are concerned they'll stay awake until you come home from the date. so this is the lazier evolution of the outdated parental form of contraceptive. what doesn't help this scene is they don't follow up showing the device in context to show what it's for, which makes it look extremely confusing if you didn't already get the idea. the only canon thing this establishes is that the dad extremely concerned his daughter is having sex out of wedlock.

@@Your_Future_Overlord Oh, ok. Fair enough.But most early 90's movies, from what I hear, have a problem like that too, and most 80's movies. I mean, I say I've only heard them because i was born in 1993, so i don't know if most 80's movies may do that, but I do hear some 90s movies occasionally do that. But from some of the 80s movies I've seen on tv like; Ghostbusters, Back To The Future(1, 2, and 3), Ferris Bueller's Day Off, etc, I thought those were genuinely worthy of being called classic and beloved movies. But some 90's movies I saw do have a slight problem similar to that of the one Ian had watching this movie. Movies like the ones with Shaq, for example. But those were more of the "so bad, they're good", type of movie. Especially Kazaam, and not just, you know, because memes. I genuinely enjoy how charmingly bad it is, along with Steel, they're both what's known as a "Hilariocity". And i grew up, seeing both Steel and Kazaam on tv, as a kid, and genuinely enjoy both movies in the so bad, they're good way. And plus, Aaron Carter just can't act to save his life. Seriously, he always sounds like he'd rather be doing anything else, anywhere else. Either that, or he's genuinely trying to act, and failing horribly. He's like the early 2000's Justin Bieber, according to some commenters. Which I agree with. I was there when Carter was getting famous. Very, very annoying music, just like Beiber. But at least Beiber made one good song, the song him and Ed Sheeran did. What's Aaron Carter known for nowadays? Oh yeah, being racist, narcissistic, egotistical, and saying the n-word, and getting knocked out by Lamar Odom. Not a good career path, I'd say. He's also a liar, saying he was abused as a kid, which was a lie. As if we needed more reasons to dislike him. But luckily, Ian's review is funny as always, and I'm glad he's back. But I do agree, most early 2000's movies (like this one), do make most people out there watching it about to have their periods, even the male viewers, like myself. But this movie didn't make me about to have my period, it was just laughably bad. Sorry, this was a pretty long message, huh?
