she doesnt even actually ATTEND the school for him. she enrolls for him, she went to that first class for him, but after that moment where he talks down to her despite making it in to Harvard, its just a movie about a woman applying herself to FULLY PASS LAW SCHOOL to spite a man who she realized didnt respect her as a person.
@damianporter942 4 ай бұрын
i have no doubts that she fully payed that harvard tuition planning to go to One (1) class and win him back, and when that didnt happen she straight up became a lawyer.

This is not a romcom. It's a career com. Her success isn't dependent on a man. It's based on her accomplishments!!!! This was SO SO SO important! Especially in 2001!!!!

I don't think Jennifer's character is meant to be dumb. She's shy, lacks confidence and had been spoken down on by her Verbally abusive ex. She showed the typical Abuse victim Characteristics.

She’s not stupid, she’s naive. She has the equipment and needs to read the manual, to perfect her bend and snap, but she tried. That’s smart

Saying "she has her book club and production company" lightly as a passing comment is funny because it is such a brilliant business move!!! She basically has an ongoing successful book-to-movie machine because she can see the books that perform the best in book club and gets first right to make it a film at her production company! Never ending lucrative cycle of media!!!

Cruel Intentions was not NEARLY iconic enough. Reese in Legally Blonde is still relevant to the culture over 20 years after the movies release.

@@kotaniyumiko I think we can all agree to disagree. The music from Cruel Intentions still lives on but yet I can’t say I remember a single track from Legally Blonde. Legally Blonde is a good movie for sure but it’s also another stereotype movie and there’s a lot of those so it can get lost a little bit easier

This is going to be controversial, I love a lot of the songs don't get me wrong, however, I think that the fact that Emmet is the reason she starts wanting to succeed in the musical makes the premise weaker than the original movie. In the original movie, she has help that is true, but her drive to succeed is within her and she is struggling but she is the ultimate decider of her own success, where as in the musical Emmet is the reason she starts to even really try in school. He is the reason she even begins to study in the musical. I think the movie is more inspirational for having the strength within and ownership of your own destiny. I still do think the musical has a fun spin and songs that are serious ear worms :)

some more fun facts about Legally Blonde! Delta Nu is based on Delta Gamma, and the scenes in the sorority house was filmed at the Delta Gamma house at UCLA. Even the Delta Nu crest is the Delta Gamma crest, but with Bruiser's head in the place of the Delta Gamma cream rose (can you tell that i rushed DG directly after Legally Blonde came out?)

never forget the fact that Elle got a 179 on her LSATs. That is ONE POINT OFF OF THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE SCORE YOU CAN GET. And we see her work her ass off. There's a scene where she gets a significantly lower mark on her initial practice test and she somehow jumps that after like... maybe a few weeks study? In a field she's never even thought about joining before this. Elle is a hidden genius.

One thing I like about this movie is the scene where they argue about the sperm donor, because it shows that not only is she wasting her time trying to get back with her ex, but it subtly warns her about her teacher. Her ex makes an argument that would help a stalker get off scot-free and the teacher agreed with it.
