Need movie/TV suggestion
We have an extra English period this week with the 9th-graders (so they are around 14-15 years old or so) and want to show a movie or TV show.
Constraints:
1) must be 45-50 minutes in length or less
2) must be in English
3) must be popular enough that we can rent it here in Japan and have subtitles
4) must be appropriate for teenagers
I'm kind of at a loss because I don't really know what TV shows are popular for kids these days. I suggested Hannah Montana but it turns out they showed some of it last year; apparently the girls loved it but the boys were kind of bored by it? (Which doesn't make sense to me... I would think they would all be just talking about how hot Miley Cyrus is.) I think if we don't come up with anything they'll show it again. Another suggestion was High School Musical but I think it's too long?
I wondered if something like the Simpsons would be okay except I think in Japan it gets dubbed instead of subbed. But seriously, what is popular with teenage kids to watch on TV these days?
