Graduation DVDs

My Friends and I are planning on having a marathon of Movie to watch (about 10 movies) to watch this weekend, with the theme "High School Graduation" since we are all graduating in June. The only things we have been able to think of to watch are "Buffy the Vampier slayer: Graduation Day" and "Can't Hardly Wait" anyone have any other suggestsion? Thanks!

The Graduate is an obvious choice, although slightly off-topic, since he's just finished college (not HS).

Say Anything is probably *the* classic HS grad movie of semi-recent vintage. American Graffiti is another one that deals with recent grads about to enter the next phase of life.

Good call on American Graffiti
Ghost World starts with graduation.
Grease leads up to graduation.
You watch Animal House at the end to give you an idea of what's to come

Anyone mention Can't Hardly Wait, yet?

And don't they graduate from college in "St. Elmo's Fire"?

Edited because I forgot to mention "Ghostworld", which even has a great Graduation Rap.

Dazed and Confused sorta fits in that it takes place on the last day of school in 1976.

The Girl Next Door - it's perfect for you. It's about graduating high school and it's much better than the mixed reviews it received (just pretend you never saw Risky Business). Obviously American Pie is similar as well.
