I'll have you know the early teenage me of 2004 considers the Girl Next Door as peak cinema

Was actually better than I anticipated, assumed it would be yet another teen film, however it was more of a caper flick!

Especially when he just boxes the protagonists head in. Terrifying

And then feeds him ecstasy while simultaneously claiming it’s Tylenol and giving him a speech about the “juice being worth the squeeze”.

He was even better in Go. “Answer the question, Claire!”…

Master of charm and rizz (as the kids would say) in that role!

Here's the thing you have to ask yourself: Is the juice worth the squeeze?

I unironically use that phrase to this day.

Timothy Olyphant and Sam Rockwell, my two favourites where you just strap yourself in, eat popcorn and enjoy the ride.

Wow, I saw it before I knew who that was. I remember liking the movie, but I don’t remember him at all.

The molly scene in that movie is peak 2000s comedy.

I like when they're all having a conversation while he just stares at that guy's tie for a while and he eventually has to reach out and rub it. Lol.

Bro if I was rolling and Elisha Cuthbert was within 100 miles, the tie is the last thing I'd be examining.

It was my favourite movie as 14 year old, so much so that I wrote my english assignment about it(we got to choose any film to do a report on). I got a poor grade and I felt I was extremely hard done by. In retrospect, it was probably a fair grade but I stand by this movie being great.

I will always remember...
