I Love You, Beth Cooper is a 2009 teen comedy directed by Chris Columbus and written by Larry Doyle from his own novel, in which high school geek Denis (Paul Rust) chooses his valedictorian speech to let the titular cheerleader (Hayden Panettiere) know his feelings. Even though she's gorgeous, popular and has a psycho army boyfriend. Later that day he and his best friend, having invited her and her friends around for a party, are surprised when they turn up. This isn't the only surprise fate has in store for Denis, since Beth isn't quite the girl he visualized... | |

Bully Turned Buddy | |
| I Love You, Beth Cooper / int_290fb089 | comment |
Bully Turned Buddy: Denis confesses his love for the popular cheerleader in his graduating speech, as well as insulting all the people he never liked — including the school bully, who Denis claims that he was probably neglected or sexually abused by his parents as a child, which is why the bully has rage issues. Luckily, when Denis is chased by Beth's angry boyfriend (another victim of Denis' speech) much later, the bully admits that Denis was right, apologizes for the stress and trouble he's caused everyone over the years, and doesn't hesitate to try and beat up the angry boyfriend while Denis and his friends try and escape. It is implied that they are on close terms after the events of the film. | |

Lovable Alpha Bitch: Beth is popular and initially only bothers to return Denis's interest out of amusement, but overall gets a positive portrayal. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| I Love You, Beth Cooper / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Denis's bully comes to his rescue when Kevin is about to pound Denis's face in...but a high-schooler, no matter how big he is, is no match for a coked-out Marine. If not for Beth smashing a humvee through Valli's house, Denis would've had the crap kicked out of him. | |

Toward the end, Beth's two girl friends try to prove Rich is gay by doing something that would turn on any straight boy: licking a phallic pastry. The scene is shot to turn on the male viewers, of course. | |
