I wonder if the 32% who cited Fast Times at Ridgemont High as their favorite from this list are the same 32% who still think Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11 and that George W. Bush is a good, honest, Christian man.
Don't get me wrong; I can deconstruct the Jeff Spicoli Family Tree of Movie Stoners with the best of them, but as charmingly dour as Fast Times is, I don't know that I'd put it ahead of The Sting or Cool Hand Luke.
And where the hell is Say Anything on this list, anyway?
