      I think the thing that aged poorly is mostly the scene of them having to "proove their sex" and the side charackters being shown to love it.
      A) because that‘s litterally illegal in public
      B) It feels transphobic to yell someone‘s sex out to everyone through a megaphone to try to "expose"
      C) them depicting a team capitain suddenly forgetting how to football/ soccer just because she‘s a she. Yes, she wouldn’t be the best of the male team, but that drastic drop in capability and knowledge would require amnesia or serious weight gain or something
      Other then that, I don‘t think it‘s that bad either. Let‘s just say it was a product of it’s time, and wasn’t the worst in this context.

    I like how these movies balanced (or at least tried to balance) the goofy/corny moments with actual humour, and sprinkling in enough character development to care about how their story ends. The early 2000s reeks of corniness but at least they owned it and didn't necessarily make it the focal point of the movie. The trope was just memorable.

    And I didn't remember that but it is really weird she suddenly needed that sort of soccer help. If it was learning the different style of play or play book that would make sense, different teams can have really different styles, formations, etc that could take a while to pick up and get comfortable in. But I'm guessing whoever wrote this doesn't really know anything about soccer so they just said "she was good at soccer but now she's trash."

    Yet another teen movie which is an update of a Shakespeare play, in this case, Twelfth Night.

    Your jokes were on point in this one! Especially loved the girlfriend having the curves of Junior Asparagus, girls going wild over tiny items they can hold in their hands, and your fears of producing athletic offspring who won't appreciate Persona 5. I Thought Olivia's challenges in the boys team was aknowledging that she would gave to up her game if she wanted to compete with them. Even if she was agile in her footwork, she wasn't on their level for endurance, speed, or push-up capacity.

      lol, women have a much higher level of endurance than men. It’s in the nature. If men were to try to survive while pregnant - they wouldn’t last a day.
      And by the way, you are a sexist. Women can and must compete with men in sport competitions, men are just scared they they’ll be handed their @sses to them.
