P is for Prom

Well A to Z-ers, it's the close of another week of the challenge and boy has it been a great one. I've made so many new blogging connections and found some great new A to Z themes to go back and catch up on tomorrow during the day off. What about you guys? 

For today's A to Z Movie Smackdown, I'm kickin' it back to one of my favorite nostalgic movie eras, otherwise known as the late 90's. These two films favorites both came out in 1999 and feature ill-conceived bets, dearly departed actors (rest in peace Heath Ledger and Paul Walker), and the glue that holds this category together, proms! So cast your VOTE for your favorite flashback prom flick.

P is for Prom:

 vs.

[Alternate 1999 Prom Pairing: Never Been Kissed vs. Drive Me Crazy]

  1. I've seen both movies, and one of the alternatives to boot, but can't remember for the life of me what happened in any of these films. So I'm afraid it is a no vote from me today. :(

  2. Definitely 10 Things I Hate About You! I watch it on a semi-regular basis - and at one stage I was able to recite the poem too. Yes, I am THAT sad, but very happy to be so :-)

  3. Oh, now this one is hard - I remember really enjoying both of these. Haven't seen them in years though. I think I will have to go for 10 Things I Hate About You because Julia Stiles is brilliant :)

  4. I think it has to be 10 Things I Hate About You, I enjoyed this movie and baby Heath Ledger :D I want to vote on the alternative grouping though, because I just adore Never Been Kissed, I cry myself happy every single time!

  5. 10 Things, I forgot Heath and that thick accent he had... hiding it.

  6. I never saw 10 Things, but I saw the second one and didn't really like it, so here's another one I can't vote on. Shucks!

  7. I can't decide! I love 10, she's, and never been! Okay, drew it is. She's just so cute as a nerd.

  10. Both are great but I have to vote for 10 Things. Love that movie.

  11. I think I've seen 10 things I hate about you, but I'm sure I've never seen She's All That. I'm not sure that qualifies me to vote, but I'm still going to.

    10 things I hate about you gets the vote this weekend.

  12. Never Been Kissed:) Drew Barrymore plays the perfect nerd!

  13. It's been years since I've seen the movie but I'll go with 10 Things I Hate About You. Love Julia Stiles!

  16. Believe it or not, I've seen none of those movies.

  17. Tough one. I'd say 10 Things I Hate About You. I remember not being that impressed with She's All That when I saw it.

  18. I've swung by your blog a few times but I can never vote because I haven't seen the movies!

    I love your theme idea though - lots of fun!

  19. 10 Things I Hate About You. It's a classic, even though college kids nowadays don't even know it exists... Someone asked me the other day who Heath Ledger was. I almost got a heart attack. :D

  20. Hellol Everyone,
    I love that movie 10 Things I Hate about You. Julia Stiles one of my favorite not so famous actors. My theme is Artists/Painters learning a little about their lives, influences. It's been interesting. It's good to have a day for blog hopping tool

  21. 10 Things! An absolutely fabulous modern translation of Taming of the Shrew and some great acting between Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger. I've been a big fan of this one from the beginning. Elle @ Erratic Project Junkie

  22. I LOVE that movie!! One of the only movies that made me cry at the end.

  23. I haven't seen either of the films, so can't vote. But a modern version of the Taming of the Shrew would get mine any day.
    Thank you for visiting and boosting my morale.
    Best wishes,

  24. "10 Things I Hate About You" without a doubt. My all-time favourite film from that era. I can quote nearly every line, and have listened to the soundtrack more times than I can count. Heath Ledger's smile still gives me goosebumps

  25. 10 Things I Hate About You. It has been one of my favorites since I first saw it.

  26. 10 things I hate about you was brilliant!
    I liked She's All That too but 10 things takes away the prize :)
