well I have not seen the movie, but it seems like the movie is controversial and dynamic considering all the attention it has pullled, on the topic of diversity we all must come to the realistic view that diversity plays a big part in the average american’s teen’s life no matter where you live because eventually you have to travel or go outside of the comfort zone of your hometown and diversity is practically universal in America, so on a positive note whether the movie addressess the topic of diversity is a shame because when you are telling a story of this nature it should be told this is a time and era that is to diverse not to acknowledge that fact.

This movie is about THESE 5 kids, THEIR high school experience, during THEIR senior year. Are you all telling me that a black jock in L.A. wont be able to relate to the white jock in warsaw indiana? Is it the fault of these kids that there isn’t much diversity in our little town? NO! and the only reason that race would be an issue is because people like most of you make it an issue. how about just letting these kids tell their story, just try and relate to them and you’ll fall in love with them! Each of them are amazing people. They deserve a chance. Maybe you should all see the film before you start making ignorant comments about one of the best upcoming movies this year. Ask anyone who’s seen it. We’ll tell you!

I think everyone is missing the point. The more we focus on the outward appearance (black-white, rich-poor, fat-thin) the longer it takes us to recognize the real lack of differences between all humans, no matter age, class, race, or religion. The differences only exist because we choose to focus on them, or in this case, the lack of more diverse skin tones. That only changes the message of the film for those who can’t or won’t see past it.

Mozz- You have nothing to apologize for. I am a white female in the state of Texas, early twenties. In my high school we had just about every ethnicity and race you can imagine. This country is constantly changing, and minority populations are getting bigger. It’s about time certain groups realized this. I’m sick of the “average American” always being the white kid.

You know what Eli, you are totally right now. It’s just that the title is sort of misleading. Had it been All-American Teens, because the term all-American paints such a picture of white america, or if it had been Small Town Teens, i would have thought about diversity, but by calling it American Teen, it just lookes like they ignored all other teen demographics. No big deal, you are right, it’s got its own demographic, i don’t find the poster or the description appealing. not my demographic… i’m letting it go.

In her own messy way, Dawn is right on, diversity be damned, this movie has a target audiences, white teens, which is not at all bad. So it’s not a movie I would want to watch, i’m not screaming un-diversified, I was the only minority in my college program and that was only a few years ago. Yes, it would have been interesting to have found a minority in an all white school and explored that side of being a teenager stranger in a strange land, but that was not the directors vision. Someone else will make that movie; let this movie appeal to who it’s going to appeal and that’s the end of that.
