#9, #8, #7, #6, #5, #3, "A Loaded Hand Gesture", "Unfiltered Honesty" and #1 are my favorite.

[@TheScarlettrouge]

In that scene from She’s The Man, Monique had a pretty savage one herself. She said it to Andrew (the guy sitting next to Duke) “Girls with asses like mine do not talk to boys with faces like yours.”

[@LinseyLovesHorror1986]

I still quote that at 35 😂

[@hermesdosanjos4765]

I love that one hahahaha

[@MsMojo]

ICONIC!

[@noemistephanie93]

Lmao that was hilarious 😂😂😂

[@PokhrajRoy.]

10:30 “Danny DeVito! I love your work!” is so OUT OF POCKET but also very funny 😂

[@andrewjones575]

He says it while in the girls' bathroom!

[@alyssadudley4468]

What about Elle Woods? How does getting into a whole law school, getting a spot in a prime internship, standing up for yourself against sexual harassment, and winning a whole case while maintaining client confidentiality after having your boyfriend leave you for not being "serious enough" not make the cut?

[@emilyprentice5581]

it technically wasn't a teen movie since Elle was in college.

[@chelseacanales8763]

“And when my eyes are closed I see what you truly are which is uugglyy. We’re done!” Monique got burned by both Viola and Sebastian

[@jjmartinez9489]

Saaaame

[@trinaq]

"You're a virgin who can't drive" will always be a shocking burn. It's even more hilarious when you realise that Brittany Murphy was actually both of these things when she filmed the scene! 😅

[@angelaholmes8888]

Yeah so true 😅

[@mariannasanfilippo6965]

Stan is more complex then that he has a small winer l.o.l. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 I love it that never gets old.

[@andrewjones575]

@@aislingrvr That doesn't mean it's true. Britney Spears said she was a virgin when she wasn't.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Jennifer Coolidge as Fiona Montgomery in ‘A Cinderella Story’ was such a brilliantly executed villain. And now she’s an Emmy Winner. No notes.

[@AntonioGG2-8420]

I love the Cinderella. The way Sam stands up for herself is very cathartic.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Hilary Duff deserved WAY MORE CREDIT for ‘A Cinderella Story’. The speech in the locker room (totally inappropriate to enter such a space but it’s a movie) was quite cool and hit Austin right in the FEELZ.

[@cams_cams]

i know Sam's speech from a heart beat

[@crystalniederriter8932]

Where’s legally blond Elle Woods famous line of getting into Harvard to clap back

[@mbrammy7]

Not a teen film

[@barrellracer]

💕What?!?!? Like it's hard💕

[@PokhrajRoy.]

13:42 I thought “There goes your social life!” deserved a place in the list.

[@ankitadubey9986]

I don't understand why being virgin is considered a bad thing!!

[@kitsunesan7972]

Being a virgin is not a bad thing no matter how old you are, but in the context of the movie being sexually active earned you street cred and the cherry on top "who can't drive" was a double burn cuz Cher just failed her driving test.

[@tangemclemore177]

It's not, but some ppl just promiscuous and can't control their hormones and wanna start early

[@106andie]

I knew that Tai would be #1 it really is way harsh, an underrated one is in Mean Girls where they’re buying prom dresses and the Regina can’t find one her size, the saleswoman says “Why don’t you go to Sears?” It’s the reactions for me 🤣

[@coco2.2]

it’s “you could try Sears” 😉 but yeah

[@florence.066]

"We only carry sizes 1, 3, and 5. You could try sears" 💀

[@PokhrajRoy.]

11:59 “OH I AM LIKE THE CRYPT KEEPER!”

[@andrewjones575]

[@florence.066]

@@andrewjones575 I think they meant how assertive and courageous she was, how she wasn't scared to stand up. She wasn't that cliché sweet girl, she was the skeptic "has a lot to say" girl.

Hilary Duff has 2 spots in this list as she so rightfully deserves. #SingToMePaolo

[@avrgwaterbottle]

that was her sister hayley duff.

[@Mama3-21]

Haylie was only the singing voice for Isabella, she wasn’t in the movie delivering lines.

[@audreynothepburn7663]

I got today, I miss the 90s and early/mid 2000s teen movies.

[@kennethferrari5232]

Nothing from Heathers? My favorite is from the end of the movie when Heather Duke tells Veronica you look like Hell, Veronica replied yeah I Just got Back.

[@andrewjones575]

Nothing from American Pie or Superbad either.

With the cherry on top being, "Heather, my love, there's a new sheriff in town!"- after taking the red scrunchie from her.

[@kennethferrari5232]

The whole of ‘Easy A’ is a Savage Comeback. Olive is a role model in how to give classy comebacks.

[@andrewjones575]

The plot is ridiculous - doing what most 17-year-olds do wouldn't cause a scandal.

[@Missmagazinebura]

How about when Mia tells Lana off before “coning” her?

[@jacobdrolet4262]

Amazing video ms mojo of savage moments in teen drama movies, fantastic job.

[@leonardolim8976]

I feel bad for austin in cinderella story. Sure shud he have stood up for sam during public humiliation? Absolutely. To defend him, it's not all his fault. He's also the victim of the humiliation and he's caught in the crossfire between humiliation, and the decision to choose to save Sam or letting his dad down. He's just as a victim as much as Sam is

[@MeyaRoseGirl]

It isn't just the pep rally. I totally feel for him there, too. It's all the times that his friends bullied her and he did nothing. It's the fact that he was so self-absorbed he couldn't figure out who she was. I mean, I can suspend the disbelief that he didn't recognize her with the mask. There have been social experiments that have proven that Superman would, in fact, be able to hide among the public as Clark Kent with just a pair of glasses. But once he decided to start looking for her, he should have been able to figure it out based on her interests, the things she said in their past emails, etc. And then after the pep rally, he should have sought her out, but he just avoided her.

[@leonardolim8976]

@@MeyaRoseGirl well yeah that too. He is at fault still but the worst offenders are Jennifer Coolidge and the 2 ugly stepsisters

[@thewildbruce5612]

@@leonardolim8976 I totally agree with you! Austin was as much of a victim as Sam was! It wasn't his fault at all! He just wanted to be loyal to his dad and not disappoint him. It's actually kind of sad, when Sam comes into the locker room and starts berating him. You can clearly see in Austin's eyes, that he's close to tears.

[@justineves3588]

Very very great list I like it a lot very great job mis mojo one of my absolute favorite list ever 💗

[@Missmagazinebura]

It’s funny because isabellas voice isn’t Hilary duff voice but her sister Haylie duff voice

[@Mama3-21]

Actually, her sister only sang for Isabella not delivered lines.

[@andrewjones575]

10:59 - He shouldn't even be in there!

I'm surprised that there's nothing from Heathers, American Pie or Superbad.

[@tonilovesfrogs7813]

[@safiaal-rawi4062]

What about princess diaries?

[@vivideblois]

You want to know something hilarious ? My dad would watch everything we would so he got subjected to our Camp Rock phase. And he adopted that hand gesture as a way to jokingly tell us to buzz off. He would put his hand in the W position but instead of stopping for the letters E and M he would roll his hand to land in the L position. None of us ever did it, only him, and he did it for years.

[@iamdragonetta]

I'm sorry that the Atomic Va-jay-jay Wedgie from Cobra Kai can't be included here. That was the most savage teen moment I've ever seen.

[@jasonlumpkin4732]

So the common thing in these teen movies is that the protagonist's rivals and so-called friends are are a bunch of arrogant bastards and pricks & they have to be just as cutthroat to come out on top. High school can be so cruel.
