"Teen movies" aren't even teen movies, as most teens would find them cringy

If this is the worst movie you’ve seen I’m worried for the future

Just had my wife listen to the dramatic reading portion. She gave me a confused look Thank you sir, for confusing my wife.

The fact that there are people out there who support relationships littered with red flags in literature/media makes me feel very worried about the human race...

“After is based on a Harry Styles Fanfic” Me, acting like I didn’t read it when I was 13: 👁👄👁

Girls growing up on these movies are gonna get messed up

I'm baffled by how many stupid versions of what is essentially "Beauty and the Beast" people can make.

*Boyfriend runs over girlfriend in jealous rage* “I’m coming out of my shell!!”

When will this trope die? In books from 50, 60, 70 years ago, a good girl needed an Angry Young Man to make her a woman. And Hero Beauregard Faulkner Fiennes Tiffin can't act at all.

The only person I absolutely respect and love is her high school boyfriend, he respected her boundaries, he wasn't too controlling, he was always nice to her but she left him for a "bad boy"

*Always thought Harden and Tessa looked related-*

To think that Todd who is in her 20's wrote this while Harry Styles was still a teenager!

His American voice is so good and needs to be in more vids

4:39 365 Days: hold my pierogi

Say no to drugs and bad teen romance movies (basically the same).

Wattpad has been recommending me this for months good thing I didn’t read it...this fanfic is TERRIBLE

I didnt watch these movies and Im grateful for my self-control, but the scene "TREVAAAA!" is burned into my memory forever.

Wattpad has so many abusive "romantic" stories, it's kind of scary ...

"You're a vigin? Ew, we have to change that" Every single teen movie

Let's give a moment of silence for poor Harry Styles who has this stain forever in his history.

Your American accent makes me want to die. Magnificent.

Spoiling a book is not a good dating technique, guys. If some guy walked up to me and spoiled the book I was reading, I would just be pissed.

Comparing Elizabeth and Darcy's relationship to Hardin and Tessa's is the most insulting way to justify his abuse I've ever heard.

Harry Styles actually had to block the girl who wrote this train wreck of a series because she apparently got so insane toward him, let that sink in.

In the book Hardin dared his friends, that he could get Tessa to sleep with him. When they do have s**, he takes the bed sheets (with her blood on them), puts them in his trunk and shows them to his friends.... And that is after he (supposedly) "falls in love" with her... Edit: Some people in the comments (and I remember that too) informed me that he even kept the condom with his sperm in it.

Why the hell is “Wattpad studios” even a thing?

Fun fact: the dude that plays Holden is the child Tom Riddle from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Sooooooooo who’s gonna tell him 365 days exists............?

Even his NAME is stupid: Hardon. HARD. ON. SURELY I’m not the only one who sees what the author was going for.

“Christian Beige” is the new name for this guy, it’s legitimately a better name than “Hardon”.

This is a Netflix film, adapted from a Wattpad story, about a bland, goodie two shoes girl who falls for a troubled, abusive, controlling bad boy... This is basically "The Kissing Booth, Part 2"!🙄🤦🏻‍♀️

imagine being pregnant for 9 months and your child is turn out to be like this girl

The part that offends me more is that this... Girl author person... Really went and made Harry Styles an abusive,toxic,"bAd BoY" thinking it was actually okay. You see this is why I dislike Fanfic that involves real people. They go and make them have these cliché horrendous personalities when they don't know how that could affect the person in question. In fact,Harry Styles has the author of this shit blocked on Twitter. And I personally don't give a fuck about Harry Style but man do I actually feel bad for him,if he blocked her,he knows about this shit.

Oversexualized teen movies creep me out.

I nearly pissed myself when I heard the American accent.

First it was Sierra Burgess is a Loser, Then it was Kissing Booth, Next it was Swiped, After that it was The Perfect Date, Beyond that it was Tall Girl, And finally we have After. Will the epidemic never end?

Wattpad is making movies now. We are truly in the end times

This one of the few times that the book is absolutely worse than the movie.

That would have been a slightly better book if it was a psychological thriller about a series abuser.

That moment when you realize that all the money invested in these shitty teen movies could’ve been used in making lots of good low-budget films.

it's funny how these actually misogynistic movies are presented as female fantasies

I literally hate how they make the perfectly normal, sweet loving caring original bf the villain and obstacle in the way of some abusive asshole. It's so wrong to teach ppl but also werid af. It's even more disappointing that this was written by a young women

“It’s my life, and you have to let me live it.” An appropriate mom response would be: “Then have fun funding YOUR college with YOUR money, because I’m not paying all this tuition so you can skip class and have a romantic getaway.”

I’ve unfortunately read the book series and it gets worse, the main character and her love interest keep going through a abusive (not well-written) cycle. The lover cheats, she gets mad and breaks up, they fuck, get back together.

Whoever writes these stories has never interacted with a teenager in their lives

Your American accent sounds like a teenage girl in a movie set in Texas about said teenage girl taming and riding a wild horse in a competition.

This is the creepiest role that kid has played. He also played a young Voldemort

Harry Stiles didn't deserve this! And can we talk how Tessa cheated on Noah and then Was suprised when he got mad? Like WTF

The actor has one of the worst british accents I’ve heard in a movie and he’s actually british. How is that even possible?

fun fact i heard somewhere that harry blocked anna todd on all social media

Are we going to talk about how they clearly haven't read Pride and Prejudice?

This is my classmate's favorite movie. Unironically. She wants a British guy to sneak into her house to "surprise" her.

I always thought of bad/punk boys as men who had an outward serious attitude, but were very kind and happy around their loved ones. A lot of Wattpad authors seem to confuse that with men that are angry, abusive stalkers that view women as property.

"Turn off emotions" Yeah sounds like psychopathy.

He has a "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" tattoo. Given his character, that feels like red flag number 1.

Based on my experience with Wattpad teen romcoms, women find the following qualities romantic: 1) emotionally manipulating your partner 2) lying to your partner 3) abandoning your friends 4) acting over-possessive 5) choking your partner 6) low-key sexual assault 7) bad boys There are a few I’m missing, but can’t wait to use these in the real world!

I’m going to say what is on everybody’s mind. The actor and the actress look like siblings. No one can deny it.

I hated this movie! It’s why Wattpad books should never have mainstream attention! The main character is bland and just a terrible person, so all you can feel for her is apathy at best and hatred at worst, the guy is also controlling borderline abusive but his dad isn’t nice so he’s excused apparently, all the other characters are only there to cause pointless conflict within the story and not to have actual personalities. Also this video is 23hrs old at the time of writing and I got the notification for it 5 mins ago... c’mon RU-vid... I pay for this stuff.

Apparently Anna Todd made this fanfic when she was 24 and lied to her readers that she was 16 or 18. Not only that, if you go back and do some simple math, she was lusting over a 19-year-old Harry Styles at the time. I’m not sure but I think she was married at the time and she had a lot of time in her hands which led to After being created 🤢😔.

Lmao at teen "romantic" movies that idolize abusive relationships. I don't think the women writing these stories have been in an abusive relationship because if they had been they wouldn't be romanticizing it lmao

One of my friends legitimately loves this movie, and told me that Harden and Tessa were meant for each other. I’m very concernedz

So coming to this conclusion, I've made a ranking list of the most abusive love interests in Netflix's teen romance movies: 1. Hardin from After 2. Noah from Kissing Booth 3. Sierra Hamburgers 4. Milk Boi from Tall Girl

His accent sounds so fake which is weird cause it's real

Y'all should stop writing negative comments on After I'm tired of liking them all

Some fanfiction should just stay as fanfiction and this is a prime example of that rule. Plus out of ALL things that are being written on Wattpad, the story with the most bland, boring and overused plot was chosen to have a movie adaptation? There are literally hundreds if not thousands stories that are more interesting and engaging than After

The teen movies AFTER this one gotta be really bad.

as a person who actually reads fanfics it's just baffling to me that the always choose the worst source material - i know it's because their popular but i still don't get WHY IF YOU WANT SOMETHING TO WORK WITH AT LEAST GO TO AO3 INSTEAD OF WATTPAD FOR FUCKS SAKE

That actor looks like a creepy mix between Hayden Christensen and the guy who played Edward in Twilight.

„We are all hardwired to desire. We can turn it on and we can turn it off“ Correct me if I´m wrong but… I´m pretty sure that „hardwired“ means that you can´t just turn something on and off.

Is this aimed at the same audience who thinks that Edward in Twilight's stalkerism is romantic?

harry's character is just a compilation of everything on r/imfourteenandthisisdeep

The problem with: "He's different around me", is the whole problem! The only reason he treats you well n o w is because he feels the need to impress you. Soon he will treat you like crap just like he does everyone else.

Can we take a moment to appreciate cj’s dedication to his fan base. He will literally put himself through the worst of cringy films for our entertainment. We are grateful that you spend time analysing these terrible films.

And next they'll make a movie based on a fanfiction about Markeplier and PewDiePie to finally get the PewdiePie-Markeplier porn.

Was I the only teen girl who was rather afraid of those weird obsessive, controlling bad boys? I feel so

These people who make “teen movies” are so out of touch, that even my teen sister who is as basic as it can get, finds them not even laughably bad. Are these people who make these movies even human beings? Aliens pretending to act human? That’s a real question no cap.

Thank you for the following bright spots in my day: > Your "American" accent > "Christian Beige" > Reminding me of your hilarious "Super Seducer" livestream

"i'll be alone at 40 because i love the bad boys" the movie.

“We’re all hard wired to desire, we can turn it on and we can turn it off” that’s not what hard wired means

I as an american can indeed say that everyone talks like that. Points for accuracy, well done.

"Christian Beige" I can't.... I can't stop laughing

imagine if this movie was well written and the end was about her breaking the romantic illusion and getting out of this abusive relation. She dug a hole and has to dig herself out. THAT would be a premise that could go a distance.

His name is literally hard on. You know it’s gonna be a good movie when you see that

There’s a lot of good original stories on Wattpad buried in the mountains of shit. But if you wanna read fanfics go to AO3.

doctor: “you have 17 minutes and 42 seconds left to live” me:

I was shocked to find out that harden (the male lead) is British why does he sound like he’s faking his own accent lmao

this reminded me that fifty shades of grey was started out as a twilight fanfiction... the trauma never ends

I remember there was a bit in this movie where Harden compares himself to Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights. And if THAT isn't the most OBVIOUS *Red Flag* yet in this movie. I dont know what is

This is the only channel that makes me literally laugh out loud. No need to apologize to all of America for the accent, just South Carolina.

This channel is like: British man tortures himself watching terrible movies, reviewing them and sometimes not even getting paid for it

The author was 23 yrs old when she wrote “After”. Bruh...

I think hollywood screenwriters have legitimately forgotten the difference between the "hunky bad boy" and the "complete douchebag who has no redeeming qualities who happens to be hot"

Fifty shades of grey but on a Subway Sandwich budget.

The worst part is that there’s a second movie coming out

The fact that the girl’s boyfriend is way better looking than b-tier Adrian Grey is god damn beautiful.

Anybody else really pissed at these kinda books/films where the girl I interest in literature and they ALWAYS mention Pride and Prejudice... Like. No. Leave P&P out of this. Don't belittle it by trying to analyse the characters in some cliché way. _Especially_ don't try to draw parallels with the main characters because ffs, if Darcy and Lizzy were anything as fucked up as Hardin and Tessa were, it wouldn't still be an absolute _classic_ 200 years later. Citing a real work of literature does not make your story any less shitty. Rant over.

Did anyone else just play videogames, hang out with friends , and enjoy the occasional school dance during their teenage years? It couldn't just be me right?

My only thoughts: "Wattpad has a film studio?!?"

I can't believe one of my friends WROTE A FANFICTION ABOUT A FANFICTION sshjhshs I hate it here
