Samantha... gay?


Did anyone else get a jealous vibe from Samantha? I think she's secretly in love with Taylor and that's why she was upset that she was giving so much attention to Scott and was channeling her feelings through "James".

Why didn't they make a movie about that, instead?

Nah I don't think so. Samantha didn't like Scott at all and was mad Taylor was going for him because she couldn't see what a jerk he was and Sam wanted her to be with someone better, so she created James to kind of show her that there are nice guys out there who are more into the stuff she is (Writing, art things) instead of just "dumb jocks" (Her words not mine!)

Then when Taylor angered Samantha, Samantha decided to use James as revenge. She knew Taylor was starting to like and trust him so it would be the ultimate betrayal to have him go against her.

Samantha was not gay. She was just a very poorly written character. I can't believe for one moment her motive in deliberately creating a fake account just because she didn't like Taylor going after Scott, considering she was her "best friend", and she got freaked out when Taylor attempted suicide and frantically contacted her mother. I think the film wanted to surprise the viewers by revealing her to be the one that caused the trouble but I simply don't believe Samantha would have such things.

The ending was also stupid. Samantha confessed and all was well again and they were again friends? Then Scott and that black girl (her other "best friend") who had avoided her like the plague when the internet bullying started suddenly turned friendly again and they joined her in condemning Lindsay and the whole class started clapping? Who wanted "friends" like these?

The whole movie was so stupid. I mean after one week of Lindsay going after Taylor BOTH of her best friends drop her???? Huh? And the last thing that Scott dude would have done after hearing TayTay puts out is break off the date with her!!!!
