Nerds Are Sexy: Heather was "very much in love" with Sandy Frink in high school, but her years-old feelings for him finally dissolve at the reunion when she sees how slick and well-groomed he's become. |

Cult Soundtrack |
| | Romy and Michele's High School Reunion / int_225527db |
comment |
Cult Soundtrack: Although the film takes place in 1997, the flashbacks and overall focus on reminiscing about high school scores it a soundtrack largely comprised of '80s pop classics. Deliberately invoked by Romy when she makes a mixtape of nostalgic songs to listen to on the drive to the reunion. |

Alpha Bitch |

comment |
Christie deserves a mention too. She carried on her spiteful Alpha Bitch ways 10 years beyond high school, retaining her Girl Posse who copy her every move, so she never grew out of her teenage bullying - but the reunion reveals her life is a pathetic shell of her past glories. She's an unfulfilled housewife with an unhappy marriage to an unfaithful sleazy loser whom she also might be cheating on, her only outlet in life is having baby after baby (which she pretends to be thrilled about), she never got the career she wanted...and to add insult to injury, all the people she tormented in high school are happy and fulfilled (if not quite as successful as Sandy) and the minion she used to boss around has a high flying career in fashion. |

comment |
Babies Make Everything Better: Averted. The characters who are happy and fulfilled are all bachelors and bachelorettes who focused on their careers. Christie, (what's left) of her clique and their husbands have devoted themselves to being parents, but they've achieved very little outside of that. Christie and Billy have marital problems and her friends secretly doubt themselves. |

Future Loser: Billy Christiansen takes the gold: going from popular hunky jock dating the popular girl in school, to a slobby failure who nails drywall for a living and whose wife is pregnant with (he suspects) another man's kid. And he still thinks he can bed Romy since she had a thing for him back in the day, even though the last time they saw each other he publicly humiliated her for a laugh. Christie deserves a mention too. She carried on her spiteful Alpha Bitch ways 10 years beyond high school, retaining her Girl Posse who copy her every move, so she never grew out of her teenage bullying - but the reunion reveals her life is a pathetic shell of her past glories. She's an unfulfilled housewife with an unhappy marriage to an unfaithful sleazy loser whom she also might be cheating on, her only outlet in life is having baby after baby (which she pretends to be thrilled about), she never got the career she wanted...and to add insult to injury, all the people she tormented in high school are happy and fulfilled (if not quite as successful as Sandy) and the minion she used to boss around has a high flying career in fashion. |

Inventor of the Mundane: Michele claims she invented Post-It Notes; (it's a lie to try to impress her old high school classmates). Sandy invents some kind of special rubber that's put on tennis shoes which makes him very successful, and Heather invents cigarette paper that burns twice as fast, which also makes her quite successful (with her buying a Jaguar as a hint to her success). |

Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Each member of the A Group has her own signature color, to the point of each of their cocktails matching their suits in Michele’s dream sequence. At the reunion itself, all of their dresses are in their signature color, but faded, to signify their fading relevance in the class. Lisa Luder on the other hand wears a pure white suit, signifying her fresh start as her own person. |

comment |
Popular Is Evil: All the cool kids Romy and Michele went to high school with were cruel to them, due to Romy being overweight and Michele having a back brace. Christie and her Girl Posse mocked and humiliated the girls, and Billy Christianson stood Romy up at prom, promising her a final dance and then running off with Christie. |

'80s Hair: Romy and Michele in particular were into experimental, Madonna-inspired 'dos (although one of the 'dos came from Madonna's 1990 Blond Ambition tour). Romy accidentally whips Michele multiple times with her three-foot-long bleached-blonde top-of-the-head ponytail while twirling at the prom. |

It’s implied that the rest of Christy's Girl Posse (apart from Lisa) are in similar situations. |

Years later, at the reunion, Lisa is a fashion editor and very much more confident about her own opinion. Also Michele’s dream where Sandy is a multi-millionaire and she starts to see something in him. |

Hypocritical Humor: A short chain of humorous hypocrisy occurs at prom: Michele encourages Romy to ask Billy to dance, reasoning that no one would turn down a dance at senior prom since it might be the last time any of them sees each other for years. Sandy then asks Michele to dance using this exact same appeal and she flatly refuses him... Then Heather offers to dance with Sandy and he rebuffs her. |

Happily Married: Christie and Billy. Except not; when Romy and Michele encounter Billy — now an overweight alcoholic — outside of the reunion, he reveals that the "successful real estate development career" that Christie had touted him as having consists of nothing more than laying drywall for Christie's father's construction company, and that he doubts that the baby that Christie's carrying is actually his. He then propositions Romy for sex; she tells him to go wait for her in his hotel room naked, which he does eagerly, but she instead leaves with Michele and Sandy in Sandy's helicopter, having gotten revenge for a similar prank Billy and Christie played on her in high school. |

Shout-Out: Since Mira Sorvino was dating Quentin Tarantino at the time the movie was made, production designer Mayne Berke decided to put in a Red Apple cigarette billboard and a Big Kahuna Burger bag as a reference. (It's not clear if this means this film is actually set in the same continuity as any of his films, though.) Sorvino also suggested the Starfleet insignia for her dress, as she's a lifelong Star Trek fan, and Romy was equally geeky. |

Avoid the Dreaded G Rating |
| | Romy and Michele's High School Reunion / int_dec54a8c |
comment |
Avoid the Dreaded G Rating: Averted. The light-hearted comedy has no sex, nudity, or violence but got slapped with an R rating because it had too many bad words. The filmmakers refused to change the dialogue and kept the rating. Lisa Kudrow criticized the MPAA for their decision while promoting the film, and when released in the UK some of the F-words were removed to get a 12 rating for the theatrical release. |

Applies to Heather Mooney as well: she goes from being an insecure, shaggy-haired Goth outcast with dowdy clothes to looking like, well, Janeane Garofalo in a sharp black dress. |

All Just a Dream: About a quarter of the movie. Romy and Michele meet up with Billy and Sandy at the high school reunion and get married to them, living happy lives, but still in a bitter dispute with each other; Michele impresses Christie with a brief technical rundown of how to make glue. |
