Not Another Teen Movie (2001)

Not Another Teen Movie uses LGBTQ+ characters and themes predominantly for crude, stereotypical humor. Characters like Areola and Les are depicted as one-dimensional gags, reinforcing harmful stereotypes without dignity or complexity. The film's reliance on mockery and problematic portrayals results in a net negative impact on LGBTQ+ representation.

The film portrays Christian characters, such as Areola and Malik, as naive, prudish, or stereotypical, primarily for comedic effect. Their religious adherence is often the source of humor, without offering any counterbalancing nuance or positive portrayal of the faith, thus reinforcing negative stereotypes.
