Top 10 Fictional Movie Schools


it’s a fact that the schools and movies
are nothing like the real thing but
growing up would have been a lot more
fun if they were oh god oh god
oh welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we’re counting down our picks for the
top ten fictional schools in movies for
this list we’ve chosen those memorable
fictional movie schools we actually
wanted to attend thanks to their great
teachers fun parties and just general
awesomeness now take out your number two
pencils the pop quiz
is about to start class number ten we
high school dazed and confused you’re
getting air from there man it’s no good
you see this it’s gotta be tithing I
have to put some gum around the base of
that it’s your typical Texas high school
football rules and upperclassmen hazed
the freshman after school today
you only get one look from each of us
still it’s a pretty cool place that even
20-somethings like the iconic Wooderson
want to hang around okay
that’s what I love about these high
school girls man I get older they stay
the same age this movie takes place on
the last day of school
and as you can expect the giant parties
and suit right
but it must have been around but without
the boundaries of school the characters
are able to socialize outside their
assigned groups and think about what
they really want in this coming-of-age
story yeah you know you right man I’m
just gonna you know get drunk maybe
I guess if anyone here can solve that
problem I’d see to it that none of you
ever have to open another math book
again for the rest of your lives
number nine Rushmore Academy Rushmore
Thanks
get it read I’m sorry did someone say my
name max Fischer isn’t your typical nerd
but then again Rushmore isn’t your
typical private school either
instead of being obsessed with his
grades max focuses solely on the
extracurricular activities his school
has to offer which is an extensive list
to say the least
I’m sorry I just came by to thank you
for wrecking my life this place of
higher learning is filled with quirky
characters like headmaster dr. Nelson
Guggenheim and Herman bloom the school’s
eccentric benefactor take dead aim on
the rich Ernest get them in the cross
hairs and take them down and the mood of
the Academy is perfected by Anderson’s
curated soundtrack Beethoven’s fifth
symphony you will realize what a work of
genius it really is number eight Vince
Lombardi high school rock and roll high
school
school can be a drag what are we doing
though just a minute laughter no not the
locker anything but the locker but not
if you have the Ramones come and take
over hi everybody
I’m Rick Randall and this is rock’n’roll
head school that’s exactly what happens
at Vince Lombardi high after numerous
principals tried to ban rock and roll
and burn rock records at school when the
students revolt things get interesting
as The Ramones blast their signature
punk tunes down the hallways
more schools were this lively we’re sure
attendance rates would be higher
right
share two minutes so okay
number seven Bronson Alcott high school
clueless but people came that like did
not RSVP so I was like totally buggin
only at a school in Beverly Hills could
you get out of gym class with the excuse
that you just had plastic surgery miss
Stoeger that machine is just a lawsuit
waiting to happen it’s the school for
the rich and fabulous that cher Horowitz
pretty much rules falling in love with
me and Bronson Alcott everyone knows
their place the stoners sit in the grass
and the Persian mafia hangs together
it’s also the only School where students
reference Hamlet and use Valley speak in
the same breath it’s just like Hamlet
said to thine own self be true
I remember Mel Gibson accurately they
didn’t say that
that Polonius guy did so I run to you
what happens are we so friends me number
six Shermer High School The Breakfast
Club Oh be honest
Andy if Brian came walking up to you in
the hall on Monday what would you do
you’d say hi to him and when he left you
cut them all up so your friends wouldn’t
think that you really liked him though
we never see school actually in session
during this movie it’s still pretty
clear that Shermer is the most realistic
school on our list I’m gonna math club a
lot of club and physics after a group of
five high school stereotypes the brain
we’re not supposed to study we just have
to sit there and do nothing the jock the
mom already ran me oh right the princess
can’t believe you can’t get mad at us
the criminal and the weirdo
end up in saturday detention
they realize they’re more than their
labels chick in a hoagie poke equities
this film defined what it was really
like to be in high school not the
Hollywood version
why do you shamelessly waste my time
like this Oh No number five Ridgemont
High School Fast Times at Ridgemont High
this movie tackles such teenage themes
as paying for your first car losing your
virginity and getting into college
otherwise known as the only things that
really matter in high school and as the
movie proves the rest of high school is
pretty much BS but going to a school
like Ridgemont makes it seem okay sorry
I’m late it’s just like this new
schedules totally confusing kind of
unbelievable that Spicoli would graduate
but if there were more teachers like mr.
hend it could happen Oh Oh mr. Han hello
Hospital Lee oh
good morning boys and girls and welcome
to what miss sure will be our greatest
year in right there number four Rydell
High School Greece
it’s pretty much the most all-american
school out there ladies and gentlemen
dingleberries on parade at Rydell
everyone lives out there Teen Dream
fantasy of sock hops school carnivals
and giant bonfires at the spirit rallies
besides being the 50s ideal Rydell has
the perfect division of the jocks and
the greasers what I don’t the two groups
immortalized in this tale of
star-crossed lovers sandy and Danny
oh and everyone breaks out in song and
knows the hand jive but that’s only
natural
at a school this spirited yeah I have
10,000 marbles please number three
Faber College Animal House
it’s the party school of party schools
where we often in a good word for you
great I heard eltis the worst house on
campus set in the 60s the film centers
on two freshmen joining the Delta Tau
Chi house and getting more than they
bargained for when it comes to
debauchery and hazing favor pretty much
set everyone standard for what it means
to have a great college experience with
all the booze frat parties and general
tomfoolery that combined to make
memorable friendships and nights you
won’t remember number two
Xavier school for gifted youngsters the
x-men franchise to the public we’re
merely a school for gifted youngsters
growing up everyone feels like a freak
at school but who’s normal in a school
where everyone is different professor
X’s Institute is pretty much the only
place a kid can go to learn algebra
alongside combat and controlling your
powers and with faculty as badass as
Wolverine and storm you’re never sure
exactly what you’ll be learning scream
as hot as you can you need the sound
waves to be supersonic captured at the
right angle and I should carry him the
school may be in constant danger but
it’s worth it I feel a great swell of
pity for the poor so who comes to that
school looking for trouble before the
bell rings on our number one pick here

lose big time because the world is run
by the man hey mr. Morgan is there any
chance we could get cat to take her my
doll before she comes to class some day
