Bring It On

With previews of Bring It On: In It to Win It all over tv, I got to thinking about how much I love the original Bring It On. Almost everyone that has seen it has a secret appreciation for this movie, regardless of age & gender. There is just something slightly addictive about it.

I was talking about this with Jamie last night. (Lee claims to have never seen Bring It On. I'm suspicious. He watches Grey's Anatomy for goodness sakes!) There is one scene in this otherwise classic that just makes our skin crawl.

Check out the video from You Tube in the post below.

It is the scene where Cliff has made a tape of a song he wrote for Torrence. She starts listening to it looking confused. Pretty soon she is bobbing her head. This head bob gets rather excessive and soon she is too-preppy-to-head-bang-head-banging. This is awkward enough. Then, out of nowhere she jumps up on her bed, grabs her pom poms and starts having a seizure. At least I WISH I could tell myself that is what happened, but really she is dancing. Now, how can a girl that is going to Nationals for cheerleading be this horribly awful of a dancer? I'm not sure. Everytime I watch this movie (pretty much whenever I see it on tv), I have to leave the room at this part. It is just way too traumatizing for me. In the meantime... I SAID BRRR. IT'S COLD IN HERE. MUST BE SOME TORROS IN THE ATMOSPHERE.
