Specifically, from Prussia. "The schools must fashion the person, and fashion him in such a way that he simply cannot will otherwise than what you wish him to will."

No matter how much you try to push this on the world, nobody's buying this heavily scripted escape from mtv. Not to mention that nobody gives a shit about American teenagers.

Interesting. And yet another reason why private high-schools are more fun.

I've graduated High School, Army and Marine Corps boot camps and there is nothing in common between the three, so the idea that they're is some sort of Prussian model is not accurate at all.

is him yelling at his guildies over vent while playing WOW. It is nice that hardcore MMO players get their day on the big screen. Whether this guy plays MMO doesn't matter, he embodies the hardcore MMO player.

"I've graduated High School, Army and Marine Corps boot camps..." and thus, you are the least likely individual on the planet to see the matrix that surrounds you. It's quite simple: Follow instructions, repeat what you've been told, and you will advance. Diverge from that program, and you will not. For more in-depth research, and the exact details of the system created to deliberately indoctrinate and dumb-down Americans, read "The Underground History of American Education" by John Taylor Gatto... or any of his excellent essays you can find through Google.

This documentary was shot near my hometown in the city of Warsaw, Indiana. I've been intrigued about it since I first heard about it. When I saw the trailer, I realized that one of the girls looked familiar. The "artsy" "punk" "scene" girl to be specific. Then I remembered several years ago in the summer of 2003, my friend Joe was dating her. Her name is Hannah Bailey. To make it even more interesting, I also heard rumors that she bit one of my friends dicks when giving him head a long time ago as well. Whether it is true or not, who knows. I think I'd be cautious putting anything near her mouth.

I saw the poster for this at the local cinemegaplex when I went to see Wall*E. They're marketing it as some kind of "modern" Breakfast Club.

to film makers that give you content but this movie sucks out loud. I can't believe how hard it's being pushed on this site. At least there isn't a shitty four legged Gort Totem in it.

Sounds like this clip is hitting a little to close to home for some of AICN's readers. Don't be afraid of the truth. That deadpan, "Napoleon Dynamite" style pretty much defined my high school experience. I think this will be the perfect approach to a doc on this subject.
Rent Kirby Dick's "Chain Camera" instead.
