Advertising budget

edit

Could we get some figures on the advertising budget in this article? I've never seen so many commercials. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.132.209.231 (talkcontribs) 03:48, 27 July 2006

Many years later but I've added an article from the LA Times that explains the film was heavily promoted on Myspace. -- 109.76.144.174 (talk) 15:16, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Similarties to Mean Girls

edit

This movie is very similar to Mean Girls. There should be a section pointing them out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.171.42.13 (talkcontribs) 00:01, 30 July 2006

No original research. --Emc² (contact me) 23:53, 18 September 2006 (UTC)Reply
Mean Girls came out in 2004 and John Tucker in 2006 so I can understand why someone might compare them but they are only superficially similar the underlying stories are quite different. FWIW it only barely passes the Bechdel Test and that seems almost accidental. Found a comment claiming to be from the writer where he says it was written before Mean Girls. -- 109.76.144.174 (talk) 15:16, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Rating?

edit

Information on MPAA and other ratings needs to be added. 66.58.219.109 23:52, 27 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

See WP:FILMRATING. Ratings are not normally included (with some rare exceptions). -- 109.76.144.174 (talk) 15:16, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Movie title

edit

Is the title of this movie a reference to that old song/Traffic album John Barleycorn Must Die? Probably a stretch, since this movie's target demographic wouldn't get the reference. Vorenus (talk) 18:56, 11 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

John Barleycorn Must Die, I doubt it, there doesn't seem to be any thematic link to the song. I don't think the film title is related to Romeo Must Die either (that film from 2000 is loose martial arts Shakespeare reinterpretation) or Surf Nazis Must Die or any other "PersonX Must Die" pattern, I think it's just a catchy title. Without sources such as the writer or director, this is all just speculation and there isn't anything useful we could include in the article. -- 109.76.144.174 (talk) 15:16, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Original Story

edit

This film is a remake from a 50/60's movies that I can't remember! Can any editor find it out?--Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 197.53.25.221 (talk) 20:44, 21 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Citation needed! There's no evidence this wasn't an original screenplay, even if the story itself of an arrogant man getting caught out by the women he has been playing might be somewhat derivative and unoriginal. -- 109.76.144.174 (talk) 15:16, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
