LOVE this. But Girls Just Want to Have Fun (which would be much higher if this list were according to the opinions of me) also highlights class issues!! Remember rich Natalie? Working class Jeff and his sister Shannen Doherty?
you're right! bc the dad who's beautiful silver hair that was ruined bc of the jello or whatever it was that was spilled on it was the boss of the dad of ms. doherty!
how could i omit?!
Update:
Now that I've seen it, I believe that Step Up 2 The Streets (1, 3, 4, 5) is basically tied with Dance Movie Number 8, Take the Lead.
Devs.
