In Sex Drive, Ian’s busy plotting to meet his internet crush Ms. Tasty across state lines, but his friends Lance and Felicia won’t be left behind. As they jump into the vintage Pontiac GTO, it leaves us wondering — how does this crew of adolescent misfits compare with our favorite teen BFF’s of all time? You be the judge.
10. Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure (1989)
Few bros can boast a friendship spanning past, present and future like Bill (Alex Winter) and Ted (Keanu Reeves). The half-baked high-schoolers use their time-travel phone booth to pick up famous faces from the past for a high school report, all the while ensuring that they stay together long enough to make music later worshipped by a future utopian society.

9. Weird Science (1985)
Gary (Anthony Michael Hall) and Wyatt (Ilan Mitchell-Smith) are two nerds who create their dream girl via computer. Their manmade creation (Kelly LeBrock) helps them face their fears and even get a pair of girls their own age. [PAGEBREAK]
8. Mean Girls (2004)
The title says it all; teenage girls can be so mean! Unfortunately for home schooler Cady Heron (Lindsay Lohan), she’s going to have to learn that the hard way when she joins a public high school. While the social misfits accept her straight away, she finds herself lunching with the bitchy Plastics. Fortunately, she eventually realizes who her true friends are. [PAGEBREAK]
7. Ferris Bueller’s’ Day Off (1986)
Nothing could be better than a day off with fun-loving Bueller (Matthew Broderick). Joy riding around town in a Ferrari with his best friend Cameron (Alan Ruck) and girlfriend Sloane (Mia Sara), he made the best of it with a stop at Wrigley Field, a high-class restaurant and a singing stint in a parade. [PAGEBREAK]
6. Napoleon Dynamite (2004)
Napoleon (Jon Heder) becomes fast friends with new kid Pedro (Efren Ramirez) as they struggle with life and love in rural Idaho. Whether it’s baking cakes or drawing pictures for the hot girls at school, they just can’t get it right. That’s OK, where they strike out with the popular crowd they make up tenfold with their friend Deb (Tina Majorino) and the rest of the kids. Vote for Pedro! [PAGEBREAK]
5. Grease (1978)
Grease is all about Danny (John Travolta) and Sandy (Olivia Newton-John), but the movie wouldn’t have a leg to stand on or a big musical number without the sassy Pink Ladies and T-Birds baddies. Leather jackets, slumber parties and pregnancy scares proved these teen gangs weren’t messing around. [PAGEBREAK]
4. Heathers (1989)
Before Cady Heron and the Plastics there was Veronica (Winona Ryder) and the Heathers. Rather than trying to fight the bitchy bullies, Veronica’s boyfriend (Christian Slater) comes up with another solution; killing them off one by one while making it look like suicide. This gives a whole new meaning to best friends ‘til the end! [PAGEBREAK]
3. Risky Business (1983)
Joel Goodson (Tom Cruise) makes Ferris Bueller look G-rated in this racy comedy about a high schooler who gets in over his head while his parents are on vacation. An innocent week of boozin’, smoking joints and ordering up high-class call girls quickly turns ugly when the prostitutes and pimps take advantage of Chicago’s North Shore preppies. [PAGEBREAK]
2. American Pie (1999)
Four seniors make a pact to get laid before the last day of school, and they all have their own way of trying to get the job done. Kevin (Thomas Ian Nicholas) hopes to seduce his girlfriend Vicky (Tara Reid), Paul (Eddie Kaye Thomas) starts spreading sexy rumors about himself, Oz (Chris Klein) tries to hit on nerdy choir girls and Jim (Jason Biggs) decides to go after the hot foreign-exchange student. Despite their triumphs and troubles, they remain friends to the end. [PAGEBREAK]
1. Superbad (2007)
There’s a reason the bro love in Superbad is so relatable, it’s based on real BFFs. Seth Rogen (who also plays a cop in the film) and his best friend Evan Goldberg, wrote the tale of two drunk high school kids trying to get laid — after experiencing that camaraderie first hand. Of course the real Seth and Evan are still friends — they just wrote Green Hornet together!
