that line is still in the movie.

This makes sense.

Yeah, I tried liking this movie, but boy does it stink to high heaven. I never thought it had a high following either.

I like this film. Every time I hear Bittersweet symphony I think about the ending.

Did anyone see the Cruel Intentions TV Pilot that never made air? It leaked on the net a few years ago. SMG returned and the story was set up revolving the older son of Witherspoon and Philippe’s characters. They used a different actor to play Witherspoon’s character. I actually found it fun and it was a little risqué for network TV.

Didn't know about the TV Pilot but I do remember watching the direct to video sequel.

Welcome back to Manchester Prep. In 1999, audiences gaped (and gasped) as Hollywood’s teen royalty engaged in sexual debauchery and 1-percenter power games in Roger Kumble’s erotic, darkly comedic modern classic, which returns to theaters Friday in honor of its 20th anniversary.
Here, in an EW exclusive, the filmmakers and cast members revisit the original tale of gossip girls and pretty little liars.

I liked this film. I'm a fan of mean spirited dark comedies and this is certainly one of those.It was a smart adaptation in the sense that the original was all about one's reputation and how valuable that is. Moving the setting to High School at the Millennium was a clever concept because your reputation absolutely matters there and is as important as anything.
