Never Been Kissed

There is a discussion taking place at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Films#References_in_Popular_Culture_Project about such sections, to which you are all invited to contribute. The JPS 12:28, 15 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Columbine?

This movie may have been the inspiration for the Columbine High School Massacre, as it is not definite whether the initials "NBK" (used by the killers as a code for their mission) referred to Natural Born Killers (as it is often thought), or to this.

Really? Are we sure they weren't referring to the National Bank of Kuwait? Pumpkingrrl 07:07, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the fact that the movie WAS released less than 2 weeks before the incident at Columbine does make its possibility more likely than other variations of NBK. That being said, I do agree that it's unlikely, and if there's an official source for that logic (say, police or psychologist theory), it should definitely be referenced...

Age

Rob is Josie's younger brother, not older. It is said in the movie he is 23 years old, while she is 25.

Premise

The film was based on a real-life reporter's undercover exposé. I just found this out in my journalism class, as my teacher knows the woman that Drew Barrymore's character is based on, Shann Nix. I've added a citation. Yeshuamyking7 22:00, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A single sentence at the end of this section says the movie was a remake of the 1942 film The Major and the Minor. As I recall, that film was about a woman pretending to be a child to save train fare. Therefore, I have deleted the remake claim. Altgeld (talk) 00:06, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rating section.

ref Is there a particular reason why the movie's rating in one country deserves its own section? :-) 156.34.209.205 (talk) 02:40, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

non encylopedic language

some of the language in this article is colloquial rather than encyclopedic, e.g. in the character profile for Anita "no strings attached". Please make the article just a tiny bit more boring, then everybody will be happy. Otherwise it is likely to be ruthless hacked around by somebody "edited mercilessly".

Requested move

– I don't know which one is more primary: the Barrymore film or the Glee episode. Nevertheless, after publication of the Glee episode, either this film may no longer be a primary topic as it was before, or there are now two primary topics. — George Ho (talk) 18:32, 10 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
