Mean Girls: Difference between revisions

:The script was toned down after [[Lindsay Lohan]] was cast in the lead role, due to the fact that she was then considered a [[Contractual Purity|family-friendly teen actress]] (which became [[Hilarious in Hindsight]] several years later after her scrapes with the law). Even then, the film had to be edited further to receive a PG-13, a lot of [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|crap got past the radar]], and an astute observer can spot some lines that were dubbed over in order to tone the film down.

** One could argue [[Tropes Are Not Bad|this is for the better]], as it makes Mean Girls more accessible to the teen demographic that can relate to the characters, and also makes it stand out from the pack of movies in the genre.

* [[But I Digress]]: [[Lampshaded]] in the Spring Fling scene.
