This movie was in the regular rotation of movies watched by my friends and I at sleepovers (along with Ever After, 10 Things I Hate About You, Center Stage, Clueless, etc).
I wouldn't say the movie helped me get over any prejudices against "girly blonde" types, because a few of my close friends growing up where beautiful, blonde, and ridiculously intelligent, so I was kind of already there. However, I loved it because it was one of those "Yeah! Any girls can kick ass!" movies for me, at a time when I wish I would have been watching them more (if I could go back and change stuff about my life, it would be to go back and get high school!Jackie to watch Buffy, read Tamora Pierce, watch Ghibli movies, etc.).
