6. Favourite quote
I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.

9. I think Ione Skye was perfect for that part
Diane Court was a very special girl. By giving it to someone who was relatively unknown, she really identified with that part instead of someone who was cast in a dozen other high profile high school movie flicks.

True fact - Kirk Cameron was almost cast as Lloyd Dobler.

10. Ew gross
I hate Kirk Cameron almost as much as I hate George W. Bush. What a squirrely little toad Kirk Cameron is.

11. Kirk Cameron?
In a movie by Cameron Crowe? That's almost as good as Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz, and Cameron Diaz in a movie by Cameron Crowe!

14. Kirk Cameron standing outside her window, going down on a banana
would have been equally memorable.
