As someone who started high school in 2010, I would find myself veritably neck-deep in references and quotes every time I went online. The sheer amount of gifs and reaction images that have been used from the talent show sequence alone is astounding — and you’d be hard pressed to find any American young adult today that doesn’t know at least one line from the film.
