» From Fast Times At Ridgemont High in the 80s and American Pie in the 90s to Superbad in the 2000s, films that blend raunchy comedy with teen coming-of-age themes have proven timeless.

» Those who've been following David Fincher's career for the last 30 years, would know that he's been consistently delivering really slick, stylish genre entertainment. Some may remember him from directing Madonna's music videos back in the early 90s, like Express Yourself and Vogue, or the hit biopic drama The Social Network (2010).
