Avril's "Sk8r Boi" to become a movie
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/030528/80/e0ym0.html

I think they should make a movie out of Avril's cover of SoaD's "Chop Suey" next. That movie could be titled "Father! Why have you forsaken me?"

Come to think of it, this movie could be titled that, too.

The question is, will Avril try to act? Or is she too busy skating in the set and cussing to do something as straight laced as acting?

DD: some good laughts will probalby come out of this.

Is she still popular? I don't understand these youngsters with their modern rhythm-type music.

"...the song has become an anthem for teenagers..."
I'm no teenager, nor am I in tune with them, but this seems hard to believe.

Laughs, still. I'm counting an all you OT'ers to go and see it on the big screen.

There is video footage of me on the internet singing along to Sk8er Boi, luckily it's only a couple of seconds in the middle of a long video.

I'm a bit worried though. I mean the way that article is written it sounds like the film is from the perspective of the girl who doesn't go out with the Boi because of what her friends said. In the song Avril's character, the one who's going out with the Sk8er Boi once he gets famous doesn't even enter the picture until the third verse.
If they follow the standard hollywood teen movie rules it would mean that in the end the girl realises her mistake and the boy forgives her and they end up together. The way things turn out in the song there's no chance for redemption for the first girl. She's lost the Sk8er Boi for ever. I just hope the writers keep the stark reality of the situation from the song and don't candy coat the ending to make it more pallatable.

Sava. She's great.

I roll my eyes at you people, all hating her, just because she's successfull now. I guess she's not "hardcore" enough, now that she's actually selling records.

You didn't say all this when she was just doing small gigs.

Jealousy.

That certainly has nothing to do with such trifles as "not knowing about her".
