29 Perfect Moments From She's All That That Can Never Be Replicated

A rumor that She's All That is being remade emerged on Wednesday, and whether you might be excited about the news or convinced it's a travesty, the fact remains that the original is pure gold. Freddie Prinze Jr. stars as the most popular kid in school who makes a bet with his friend (a young Paul Walker) that he can make the school dork (Rachael Leigh Cook) a prom queen. It's a simple and cruel premise, but the movie is a feel-good romance with plenty of memorable moments. It easily stands out as one of the best teen movies of 1999, and these GIFs are proof that no remake can capture the magic of the original.
