I miss the warmth of radiation burning my pale white skin. The smell of toxic chlorine and sun screen is lost on me. I can only wait for the sweet kiss of death now.
Am I the only who doesn't understand why Pheobe is mad at Griffin for keeping the affair secret. His dad is married to his mom. It is way more traumatic for him than for pheobe. No wonder it took him a week to tell her. Her mom had to break up with his dad, no big deal.. But his dad would have to divorce his mother & break up their family. And Pheobe's the angry one??! What?

Every teen girl in romcom movies: " im a single nerdy virgin who is having a midlife crisis at 18 and i dont even think im capable of love. Im just going to go to college to study art or music or film or something get a full time job maybe adopt a few cats and then die an unhappy bitter old hag.... Nvm I just got a total hot girl makeover and that super hot bad boy over there is looking at me im going to marry him! What?! He is an ass hole and cheated on me! Who would have seen that coming? Im going to hook up with his best friend oh wait im still in love with the bad boy! *makes out and the credits roll*
Nailed it! Oh and don't forget the makeover scene where the nerdy glasses girl transforms into a model! Never mind that she can't see anything. I hate this trope so much in movies as a glasses wearer.
I was angry because they didn't take in account the poor guy's feelings. Like, it's HIS DAD who is cheating, if it was any other guy who he saw cheating with the girls mom it would be reasonable that she was mad. I was really angry that Griffin was the only one apologizing. Yes, he should have told her, but have his feelings in mind. Besides, as he said, his father made that dumb decision.
... Maybe he experienced it before? It was never addressed and I have not watched the movie for reasons. What I meant, is that his father did it once or how many times before. Having affairs from his wife.
Yeah what I don’t get is why Phoebe’s mom is mad at Griffin. Makes absolutely no sense considering Phoebe’s mom was the one having the affair, not Griffin. Such a stupid plot line and super unrealistic, the woman should be apologizing to Griffin after all considering she nearly ruined his love life.
Same. I really disliked this girl, to out it mildly, at that scene, and was like really protective of the guy. HELLO!!!?!?!?! IT WAS HIS DAD!!!! IT'S REALLY AWKWARD! AND HURT HIM TOO!!! IT'S NOT LIKE HE HIMSELF WENT OUT WITH YOUR SISTER OR AN ENEMY OR SOMETHING, AFTER YOU TOLD HIM.

@@meggyspencer lol. Yes! No Imagination. I mean yes, leaving 13 years of School behind is scary for everyone. But going back to be so rightless? So dependent on other people, nooo.
I love how poor Griffin was the one who was hurt finding out his Dad was cheating on his Mum, and I can understand Phoebe's issue with his lie of omission but... where was her support and understanding for him? and how this impacted his family?
Because Phoebe was upset that he knew and didn't tell her so they could deal with it together, as a couple should. Especially considering that it involved one of her parents too. It wasn't so much how the news affected her, just that he disregarded the level of intimacy they seemed to have with one another.
Derek Thomas Lirio it’s okay to be upset about this but she didn’t have to make it all about her and be all “Griffin destroyed what little hope in humanity she has left .” Boohoo. Like what is that even all about? And she literally broke up with him after finding out. She didn’t even stop to think about what her partner is going through but instead was all self-centered.
Derek Thomas Lirio it was 5 days and he wasn’t sure of anything. 2, there barely in a relationship. Much less partners. 3, this will impact him way more then her.
YourCommonLoser i thought that was just me hahahah glad to see im not the only one. He looks like he could be in a frat boys movie and itd be more relatable. Hell, even a military movie 💀😂
I mean, maybe it's more of a reminder, considering he may or may not be in one of those positions where you REALLY wanna leave the other person, but something/someone is holding you back. Example: He could be feeling kinda negative about where his relationship is standing for whatever reason, so he reminds himself to tell his gf that it's over, probably because she's busy some place else. Or, or, he could be just like me and is very forgetful! I had to keep reminding myself to break up with my bf, mainly because I kept having second thoughts, and I didn't know how to do it, so it was basically hella delayed
My friend couldn't break up with his girlfriend Because his parents were so involved in the relationship that they wouldn't let him. He is still trying for 2 years already and I think this time he will have to settle on that. Edit: He has now gave up on the idea of break up, so I would say "don't get your parents involved in your relationship!".
It's funny how movies portray teens graduating high school as if they only got one chance to party and go wild. Kid wait until you go to college. The portrayal of what teens do during summer break is rather unrealistic sometimes 💁
What ur saying is sorta true same with Alex’s but this movie talks about hanging out with the people u go to school with ur friends one last time before u all go ur separate ways to different Colleges
Olivia Douglas lol I just stopped talking to so many people Bc I was ready to get out, and I constantly work while going to community college. As a kid I definitely envisioned graduating high school in a different way Bc of these movies😂 but really you just keep living life
Sebastion Strict trust me after sophomore year when u really established the right friend group nights out will feel like a movie if u go out with them that is
Why should she apologize if she didn’t even know he was married? And when she found out, she ended it (I’m assuming, I haven’t seen the movie lol). So apparently she did her part, the dad was the one who was cheating...
Julia di Creddo Oliveira because it’s not his fault??? and he just wanted to see what was happening and you should probably have the decency to apologize for dating someone’s dad
This is not real life ! OMW ! If I was Griffin I would have let her have it. Like sure she was lied to too.. But why is she mad at me for..🙄the entitlement. She's probably a karen.
august citrine why would you apologize for dating someone's dad ? What does that even mean? She had no idea he was married. And they were all mad at him for not telling phoebe that her mom and his dad were dating. They did overreact but why would she apologize lmao
Yeah, that's the problem with Riverdale. Whether people like or deplore Archie Comics as a whole or evem find it to be average, we all gotta admit that no matter what, Riverdale is a disgustingly unsatisfying TV series for obvious and subtle reasons. It's like the Archie Sonic series all over again.
There are Riverdale characters named Fred and _Hermione??_ (I don't keep up with the show lol) I'm sorry but that just reminds me of Fred Weasley and Hermione Granger, which um.......no. 😂
9:20 No offense girl but didn't he just find out that his dad was cheating on his mom? Like that seems way more earthshattering than what she's going through
Did I miss a scene? I think it’s bizarre how she reacted to him telling her about their parents when he has no idea what is going on. That’s nothing. “Yeah I saw my dad talking to your mom the other day..” “You ruined everything and I can’t trust anyone ever again!” What’s even happening
Griffin: Yeah my Dad has been cheating on my Mom with your Mom. Phoebe: OH MY GOD YOU'RE THE WORST, DON’T YOU KNOW YOU’VE RUINED EVERYTHING FOR ME! I HATE YOU!!!!!
“18 or 80? What teenager would talk like this??” Hey now, this “teenage” dialogue is 100% more believable than the stuff the riverdale writers have their teen characters saying 😂😂
Basic teen romcom plot Two people who barely know each other Start dating A “dramatic” argument Get back together Movie ends Edit: Thanks for the likes ❤️
@@TheLily97232 Every story needs conflict. Otherwise, it's a first generation self insert story aka a "mary sue" story. Your opinion is yours of course, but the template here isn't necessarily bland. What is the argument about? What circumstances brought these characters together? Depending on how the stories are executed, they could be wildly different.
Phoebe: Just when I saw starting to let my guard down... *Most of the way through the movie* Me: Didn't you do the Devil's Tango with him on like the second "date" or something? Wow, you are so guarded.
Well she wanted NYU, living in NYC and paying tuition even with basic scholarships can cost you about $50k upwards of hundreds of thousands overall throwing in living expenses. You need really good scholarships, affordable housing and hope your college in the university is one of the cheaper ones. My winter classes at NYU were devasting blows to my pockets but state college the rest of the year helped.
My question is how is it the "last summer" and you're APPLYING to university?! You mean you missed the cut off date and are trying to get in m NYU in like three months? WTF?!
*Alex* : It’s not really a bad movie, per-say. Like for what it is, it’s enjoyable enough. *Alex two seconds later* : My main problem is with the *_entire premise_*
Oml.HE FOUND OUT THAT HIS DAD WAS CHEATING ON HIS MOM!!!And the girl is like "the guy my mom was dating is married."Boo hoo his family is going to be destroyed and all your mom had to do is break up with him....HMMMMM 😡🤯
Noah Centineo needs to team up with KJ Apa. Like the Captain America Civil War, but it’s Awesomeness TV vs The CW. But, they’re contractually obligated to take off their shirts in every fight scene. IT’D BE EVERY TEEN GIRL’S DREAM
I thought it was so stupid that they did the "devils tango" right after eating tons of food! And also that she got on griffins lap and then acted like she was being casual when he looked at her weird 😂

Thinking about my high school experience now, ten years later, I remember that, although I wasn't the most unpopular kid in the school, I was stressed all the time thinking about what other people think about me. I dabbled in suicidal thoughts and managed to get out of that on my own, and so on. In conclusion, I would most definitely not do it all over again. And, as Alex said, life does keep getting better after graduation.
Wait you forgot phoebe's line after eating all the BBQ and Griffin tries to open a wet nap and she all of a sudden says "is that how you are with a condom" like really? You're full from eating and that's all you can think about? 😂🤦🏽♀️
No, Alex, teenagers really be like that sometimes. It's not often, but sometimes, we do talk like a 30 year old wondering if it's not too late to move to Alaska.
yeah.. but then we realized how silly and close-minded we were when we see the real world after graduating "if it's not too late to move to Alaska" is a perfect example of that kind of teen silly thoughts when you're adult you'd think "I'm glad I didn't proceed to moving to Alaska the world I'm having now is so much better!"

@@meggyspencer lol. Yes! No Imagination. I mean yes, leaving 13 years of School behind is scary for everyone. But going back to be so rightless? So dependent on other people, nooo.
I love how poor Griffin was the one who was hurt finding out his Dad was cheating on his Mum, and I can understand Phoebe's issue with his lie of omission but... where was her support and understanding for him? and how this impacted his family?
Because Phoebe was upset that he knew and didn't tell her so they could deal with it together, as a couple should. Especially considering that it involved one of her parents too. It wasn't so much how the news affected her, just that he disregarded the level of intimacy they seemed to have with one another.
Karsyn zzstu Beauchamp RIGHT
Derek Thomas Lirio it’s okay to be upset about this but she didn’t have to make it all about her and be all “Griffin destroyed what little hope in humanity she has left .” Boohoo. Like what is that even all about? And she literally broke up with him after finding out. She didn’t even stop to think about what her partner is going through but instead was all self-centered.
Derek Thomas Lirio it was 5 days and he wasn’t sure of anything. 2, there barely in a relationship. Much less partners. 3, this will impact him way more then her.

REMINDER: Break up with Erin
Oh yeah cause you would FORGET to break up with your gf. Good grief 🤦🏽♀️
I mean, maybe it's more of a reminder, considering he may or may not be in one of those positions where you REALLY wanna leave the other person, but something/someone is holding you back. Example: He could be feeling kinda negative about where his relationship is standing for whatever reason, so he reminds himself to tell his gf that it's over, probably because she's busy some place else. Or, or, he could be just like me and is very forgetful! I had to keep reminding myself to break up with my bf, mainly because I kept having second thoughts, and I didn't know how to do it, so it was basically hella delayed
I probably would😂

@@solarwings1132 I think you're giving the writers WAAAY too much credit lol it's just how 50+ year olds think teens are like
My friend couldn't break up with his girlfriend Because his parents were so involved in the relationship that they wouldn't let him.
He is still trying for 2 years already and I think this time he will have to settle on that.
Edit:
He has now gave up on the idea of break up, so I would say "don't get your parents involved in your relationship!".
I love how high school movies are nothing like high school 😂

High school musical was deeper about graduation
Wow, when you put it that way...
Good noodle - and that’s why it’s the supreme
It's funny how movies portray teens graduating high school as if they only got one chance to party and go wild. Kid wait until you go to college. The portrayal of what teens do during summer break is rather unrealistic sometimes 💁
Im in my first year😂. It's all a party until you write a test the morning after that huuuuge party😑
Olivia Douglas true
What ur saying is sorta true same with Alex’s but this movie talks about hanging out with the people u go to school with ur friends one last time before u all go ur separate ways to different Colleges
Olivia Douglas lol I just stopped talking to so many people Bc I was ready to get out, and I constantly work while going to community college. As a kid I definitely envisioned graduating high school in a different way Bc of these movies😂 but really you just keep living life

"VINES THAT TICKLE MY TATAS" dude I can't with you seriously 😂😂😂
why was phoebes mom so pissy when she was the one that should have been apologizing LMAO
I know! Like why was she mad at Griffin like Griffin was the cheater?
Why should she apologize if she didn’t even know he was married? And when she found out, she ended it (I’m assuming, I haven’t seen the movie lol). So apparently she did her part, the dad was the one who was cheating...
Julia di Creddo Oliveira because it’s not his fault??? and he just wanted to see what was happening and you should probably have the decency to apologize for dating someone’s dad
This is not real life ! OMW ! If I was Griffin I would have let her have it. Like sure she was lied to too.. But why is she mad at me for..🙄the entitlement. She's probably a karen.
august citrine why would you apologize for dating someone's dad ? What does that even mean? She had no idea he was married. And they were all mad at him for not telling phoebe that her mom and his dad were dating. They did overreact but why would she apologize lmao

Yeah, that's the problem with Riverdale. Whether people like or deplore Archie Comics as a whole or evem find it to be average, we all gotta admit that no matter what, Riverdale is a disgustingly unsatisfying TV series for obvious and subtle reasons. It's like the Archie Sonic series all over again.
Kieran Stark you probably watched the first episode and stopped.
These teen movies are written by 60 year olds. Maybe get an input from an actual teen every now and then
Honestly, maze runner seems more realistic
lol even 60 years old were once teens too XD
but yeah they need better writers
PREACH
Lmfao
Yeah maze runner was a dope movie. I’m gonna go rewatch it on Netflix lol
IF teenager wrote movies it will be a lot of more edgy than it should be.
"And they're all like happy...
Whatever that's like."
And that, that's relatable.
Sadly... Lol!
Just realized that -Archie’s- Griffin’s Dad dating his girlfriends mom is just like happened with Fred and Hermione in Riverdale

@@lorenalareyna5819 *relatable*
Maybe it's on loan from the A/V club?
Well she wanted NYU, living in NYC and paying tuition even with basic scholarships can cost you about $50k upwards of hundreds of thousands overall throwing in living expenses. You need really good scholarships, affordable housing and hope your college in the university is one of the cheaper ones. My winter classes at NYU were devasting blows to my pockets but state college the rest of the year helped.

Thinking about my high school experience now, ten years later, I remember that, although I wasn't the most unpopular kid in the school, I was stressed all the time thinking about what other people think about me. I dabbled in suicidal thoughts and managed to get out of that on my own, and so on.
In conclusion, I would most definitely not do it all over again. And, as Alex said, life does keep getting better after graduation.
Wait you forgot phoebe's line after eating all the BBQ and Griffin tries to open a wet nap and she all of a sudden says "is that how you are with a condom" like really? You're full from eating and that's all you can think about? 😂🤦🏽♀️

They couldn't keep out the 'i'M nOt LiKe OtHeR giIrS!!!' Uhh 😜😜😜😜
No, Alex, teenagers really be like that sometimes. It's not often, but sometimes, we do talk like a 30 year old wondering if it's not too late to move to Alaska.
Faith ya
Honestly I was like that as a teenager.
I only think like that because it's how I write most of my characters. But when it comes to putting my thoughts into words, I just can't.
yeah.. but then we realized how silly and close-minded we were when we see the real world after graduating
"if it's not too late to move to Alaska" is a perfect example of that kind of teen silly thoughts
when you're adult you'd think "I'm glad I didn't proceed to moving to Alaska the world I'm having now is so much better!"
some teens r emo teens who like to do "deep thinking" lol
