Line 3: Head cheerleader Diane Weston ([[Marley Shelton]]) has just been knocked up by her boyfriend, the football team's star player Jack Bartlett ([[James Marsden]]). Unfortunately, both their parents have disowned them, and they need a place to live, and more money than they have. So Diane has [[Sarcasm Mode\|a brilliant plan]] to rob the supermarket's bank branch, with the help of the rest of the cheerleading squad. [[Better Than It Sounds]]. Also starts [[Marla Sokoloff]], [[Mena Suvari]], [[Melissa George]], and [[Alexandra Holden]]. ---- {{tropelist}} ~~==== This movie contains the following tropes: ====~~ * [[All Guys Want Cheerleaders]]: On almost a stalkery level. * [[A Simple Plan]]: Subverted; everything would've gone swimmingly if Lisa hadn't been there. Line 16: * [[Dawson Casting]]: Of varying degrees, but the most [[Egregious]] example is [[James Marsden]], who was old enough to be going to his tenth reunion. * [[Deconstructor Fleet]]: A lot of the [[Teen Comedy]] genre is taken apart. * [[Fell Off the Back of Aa Truck]]: The "free" TV and VCR Jack and Diane's landlord "gives" them. * [[Genius Ditz]]: Jack is ''really'' dim, but a great salesman. * [[Genre Savvy]]: Deliberately invoked. The squad watches heist movies to come up with a plan. Also averted, in that they don't find anything useful. * [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: This could be [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer\|Warren Meers]] [[Start of Darkness]]... Also, [[Deadwood\|W.B. Brown]] as the "[[Names to Run Away From Really Fast\|Terminator]]". * [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: [[Melissa George]]'s character becomes a scream queen in the [[Where Are They Now? Epilogue]], by starring in ''[[Scream (~~Film~~film)\|Scream]] 8''. While George wasn't in ''that'' movie, she has made a career of starring in horror movies, albeit more intelligent horror movies ([[Triangle\|or at least movies that try to be intelligent]]). And since ''Scream 4'' came out recently... ** ''Scream 4'' also starred [[Marley Shelton]]. * [[Hollywood Homely]]: Fern is actually kinda cute. But she shouldn't fill the tanks before practice... Line 28: * [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: The guy they get their guns from is called the "Terminator". * [[Poke the Poodle]]: The girls watch heist movies to get ideas, but Hannah lives in a devout Christian household, and can only watch G-rated movies, so she watches ''[[The Apple Dumpling Gang]]''. * [[Stalker ~~With~~with a Crush]]: Cleo seems awfully interested in [[Conan O 'Brien]]... * [[Spiritual Successor]]: To ''[[Drop-Dead Gorgeous]]''. Both were written by Lona Williams, have similar themes, humor, characters and a few actors (like [[Alexandra Holden]]). * [[Stepford Smiler]]: Diane. [[Marley Shelton]]'s big anime eyes help the effect. Line 37: [[Category:Films of the 2000s]] [[Category:Sugar and Spice]] [[Category:Film]]
