Bandslam

Bandslam also known as High School Rock is a 2009 American musical and romantic comedy drama film produced by Summit Entertainment and Walden Media. Written by Josh A. Cagan and Todd Graff, it stars Aly Michalka, Vanessa Hudgens, Gaelan Connell, Lisa Kudrow, Scott Porter, Ryan Donowho, and Tim Jo. The story revolves around Will and Charlotte, who form an unlikely bond through their shared love of music. Assembling a like-minded crew of misfits, the friends form a rock group and perform in a battle of the bands competition called "Bandslam". Bandslam was shot in Austin, Texas, with additional scenes filmed in New York City. The film generated mostly positive reviews but it failed to chart in the top 10 when it was released on August 14, 2009 in the US, where it grossed only $2,250,000 on the weekend. In a brief cameo, this was David Bowie's final film appearance before his death in 2016.

Hi, I'm Charlotte. Nice to meet you.

I've known you since 5th grade.

Charlotte Banksasks:
...Hmm.

Will Burton:
So, how big is this whole bandslam thing around here?

Sa5m:
Texas high school football big.

Will Burton:
I think if you tried signaling, people would honk less.

Charlotte Banksasks:
They don't need to know my business.

Will Burton:
...It's not really a privacy issue.

Will Burton:
I think you're trying too hard to be like Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Bug:
That's crazy; I don't even like Flea.

Will Burton:
Yeah, what's your name?

Bug:
...Bug.

Sa5m:
Let's... start... shredding!

Will Burton:
School today was like Guantanamo with a lunch period.

Sa5m:
Emotion is... overrated.

Sa5m:
Well, if you were just part of Charlotte's experiment this whole time, then, what is reality? What if Charlotte and her experiment are really a part of someone else's larger experiment? I mean, what if we're being manipulated by some greater intelligence than our own? And if so, is there really such a thing as free will? Am I moving my hand or was it predetermined by a force I'm not even aware of? Charlotte times a trillion.f you were just part of Charlotte's experiment this whole time, then, what is reality?

See, this is why you don't have friends!
