2006 gave us a lot of memorable moments in pop culture. We were introduced to "High School Musical" and "Hannah Montana," and all you wanted was the pink Motorola RAZR. But one of the best things 2006 gave us was the movie "She’s the Man." When her school cuts her soccer team, Amanda Bynes’ character, Viola, dresses up as her twin brother Sebastian to join the soccer team at his school, Illyria. Viola falls in love with the team captain and her roommate, Duke, who’s in love with Olivia, who’s in love with Sebastian, who’s actually Viola. Love triangles, comedy, Channing Tatum, soccer – this movie has everything.
The modern day telling of Shakespeare’s "Twelfth Night" and one of the most quotable movies is turning ten, and here are 15 times that prove it’s still the greatest movie of our generation.
