Mean Girls (1/10) Movie CLIP - Meeting the Plastics (2004) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Cady (Lindsay Lohan) sits with "the Plastics" during lunch and gets invited to return for the rest of the week.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Tina Fey from Saturday Night Live wrote and appears in this comedy about the alternately funny and terrifying pecking order among teenage girls. Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan) is a 15-year-old girl who has spent most of her life in Africa, where she was home-schooled by her zoologist parents. When her family relocates to the United States, Cady finds herself attending a high school in suburban Illinois, where she gets a crash course in the various sub-strata of the student body: the jocks, the cheerleaders, the stoners, the "cool" kids, and so on. Much to her surprise, Cady finds herself embraced by a clique of rich and popular girls known to outsiders as "the Plastics," led by Regina George (Rachel McAdams), Gretchen Weiners (Lacey Chabert), and Karen Smith (Amanda Seyfried). While Cady is grateful for her new friends, it doesn't take long for her to realize how manipulative they can be, and she soon discovers she's violated an unwritten law when she goes out on a date with Aaron (Jonathan Bennett), who is charming, good looking...and Regina's former boyfriend. It isn't long before Regina and her pals are on the warpath, and Cady must face a level of vengeful behavior for which years in the jungle never prepared her. Joining Tina Fey in the supporting cast are fellow SNL players Amy Poehler, Ana Gasteyer, and Tim Meadows. The screenplay for Mean Girls was based in part on Queen Bees and Wannabes: Helping Your Daughter Survive Cliques, Gossip, Boyfriends and Other Realities of Adolescence, a book by professional youth counselor Rosalind Wiseman.

HIT US UP:

[davidb]

After re-watching this scene for the thousandth time, I'm just now realizing that it took Karen almost a full minute to process the fact that she was from Africa and to ask about it

[lMlAlCl]

She was sizing her up. She was seeing if she can control her and make her a minion of hers. People do this in real life. You gotta watch the signs.

[JH-qbnz]

This scene should be named "how to be a bully while being nice"

[scl]

What made movies like Mean Girls, Heathers, and the Breakfast Club so iconic is that everything was so subtle; because that's the way mean high school girls are. They pretend to be nice people who are down to earth when they're really just condescending and soaking themselves in more popularity.

[RegularInvader]

Looking back at this part makes me realize how creepy Regina's fake smiles were.

[tharden]

"so if your from africa, why are you white?"
"omigod karen you just cant ask people why are they white"
oh god xDDDD

[alyctus]

"So you agree? You think you're really pretty."

[brandeno]

This movie shows you how some bullies can psychologically bully you instead of physically

[snoopymochi]

I really wonder how Regina befriended Karen and Gretchen

[DaltonHBrown]

0:35 The way Cady says "Oh, my mom made it for me." as she holds the bracelet to her heart is so adorable.

[itsramon]

Rachel McAdams is one of my favorite actresses! She really knows how to perform well.

[pamjam]

Regina: "You're like really pretty."
Cady: "Thank you."
Regina: "So you agree?"
Cady: "what?"
Regina: "You think you're really pretty?"

Haha, Regina's such a bully. Poor Cady. LOL.

[jamesharness]

in this scene regina never ceases to smile or to look cady right in the eyes. she’s almost like a predator luring her victim into her grip. i love her to bits

[elifb.]

Rachel McAdams is like a barbie doll here and so pretty

[applefan]

“So if you’re from Africa, why are you white?”

Amanda Seyfried’s first line ever

[SuperWishaniggawoods]

Who would of known Amanda Seyfried was gonna become the actress she is today . I sure as hell didn't lol

[samt]

"Oh my god Karen, you can't just ask people why they’re white"

[All-zecl]

This scene perfectly captures what it feels like for a popular girl to talk to you, the conversation always feels so stiff and you never know how to respond and everything seems slightly ingenuine. Also, I noticed how Regina complimented Cadys bracelet but that's most likely a lie since later she does the same with the skirt on that one girl. Shows how Regina was manipulating Cady from the start.

[AeliaReadsBooks]

i still love this movie...so quotable...

[NJCUJan]

They're all great but Rachel owns this scene. It's a crime that she's not an even bigger star than she is.
