Top 10 Mean Girls Movies Quotes From Other Movies
Ah, Mean Girls, perhaps one of the most quotable movies of our generation, and even though it was released waaay back in 2004, it seems we just can’t stop adding the odd “If you are from Africa, why are you white?” line in our every day conversations.
And that’s not all. How many times have you referred to Glen Coco in the past year? Who by the way is a character that has no lines and yet is one of the most popular characters in Mean Girls!
But there’s no point just listing all the quotes that we all know from the movie, so why not mix it up a little bit?
Here is the top ten quotes form movies that should have been in Mean Girls, featuring a range of different movies and really, ten just isn’t enough!
1. 10 Things I Hate About You (1999)
Ms. Perky: People perceive you as somewhat…
Kat Stratford: Tempestuous?
Ms. Perky: ‘Heinous bitch’ is the term used most often.
I wonder which character in Mean Girls could be most described as the above, well Regina George of course! However no one might have been ready to say this to her face, except for maybe Janis Ian.
Captain Dickson: Teenage the f*** up!
A lot of people could probably relate to the moment when Cady Heron walked into the High School Halloween party actually dressed in a Halloween costume, and not as a skanky version of well, anything. If only Captain Dickson from 21 Jump Street was there to set things straight.
Becca: You’re more beautiful than Cinderella! You smell like pine needles, and have a face like sunshine
When hearing this particular quote the first thing that comes to mind for me is the monologue by the girl who “doesn’t even go here!” I feel this would have been the perfect end to such a beautiful moment.
Jacob Palmer: You see the problem is, your head is like…like the proportions of a Styrofoam peanut
Cady Heron so desperately wanted to be a ‘plastic’, and it wasn’t just part of the act. This quote would have fit in nicely when the transformation for Cady began, and it would have most likely been Gretchen Weiners who told her, after all her dad was the inventor of toaster strudel…
Doug Billings: Either way, you gotta be super smart to count cards, buddy, okay?
Alan Garner: Oh, really?
Doug Billings: It’s not easy.
Alan Garner: Okay, well maybe we should tell that to Rain Man because he practically bankrupted a casino, and he was a ri-tard.
Stu Price: What?
Alan Garner: He was a ri-tard.
[pauses, figures out what Alan is saying and corrects him]
Doug Billings: Retard.
Possibly the only other character that could have gotten away with saying something like this is Karen Smith. Her one-liners throughout Mean Girls could definitely rival Allen’s.
Mugatu: Todd! Are you not aware that I get farty and bloated with a foamy latte?
How many times did we hear that Regina George really wanted to lose three pounds? I wouldn’t want to see how Regina would react when someone accidentally gave her a foamy latte instead of her fat-free cranberry juice cocktail.
Brennan: So much more room for activities!
How many of us wished we could swap our tiny bedrooms for our parents’ master bedroom with its own ensuite when we were younger? Well of course Regina did and I’m thinking Karen could have said something like this.
8. John Tucker Must Die (2006)
John Tucker: I’m anxious and bloated, my nipples hurt!
Still in Regina’s room and we remember when ‘The Plastics’ all stood in front of the floor length mirror and pointed out all of their flaws, when to the naked eye, they look perfect. Gretchen Weiner could have taken this one for sure.
Noah Levenstein: I have not had a night like that since the 70s.
Jim: Don’t need this.
Noah Levenstein: You’d be surprised what you can do with a well-placed thumb.
If there is anyone more inappropriate than Mrs. George, Regina’s mum, then it has to be Jim’s Dad in American Pie. His ability to make an awkward situation even more awkward is just world class.
10. Ted (2012)
Narrator: [voice over] So, where are John and Teddy today? Well, let me put it this way. No matter how big a splash you make in this world, whether you’re a Corey Feldman, Frankie Muniz, Justin Bieber or a talking Teddy Bear, eventually nobody gives a sh*t.
An appropriate quote to finish up on which is of course in relation to ‘The Plastics’, because in the end nobody cared about them and all of that time fussing over looks and only wearing pink on Wednesday’s was completely irrelevant to the bigger picture.
