🔒 Mean Girls 2024 vs 2004
Manage episode 398309460 series 2963662
We are SO excited to share our very first subscriber bonus episode with you! In this bonus series, we will be discussing Mary-Kate and Ashley adjacent, feminine-centric pop culture of the '00s. And we're starting with the film that defined the "Pink movie" genre for the past two decades: Mean Girls.
Becca and Lani saw Mean Girls 2024 together this month, and as we stood by the fountain outside the The Grove AMC in Los Angeles discussing what we liked and didn't like about the film, we realized that everything we were talking about was deeply relevant to our podcast. Not only because it's based on one of the biggest movies of 2004, the same year we're currently talking about in Mary-Kate and Ashley's timeline, but also because its literally re-examining and re-imagining girlhood in the early 00s through a modern day, feminist lens. That's our expertise, babe! So here we are.
It's impossible not to compare this film to the Lindsay Lohan classic film from 2004, so we discuss which changes worked, which ones didn't, and how the characters themselves have changed in this modern-day retelling. We also discuss the budget this film received, its marketing strategy, and how the Mean Girls Musical translated to film.
We're so excited to bring this first installment of our bonus series, and we hope you enjoy! Subscribe and listen wherever you get podcasts here.
