Romance rears its unconventional head
1st Clue: This film is probably divisive.
2nd Clue: I remember at the cinema when I was a kid, a teenager in front of me and my friends saw the poster for this film and said to their friend "Wicked, **** ****!" This movie isn't actually part of the \*** **** franchise, obviously*.
3rd Clue: I first saw this film as a child when it came on TV one night, which meant my mother watched it with me. That was a bit awkward in retrospect, but my mom has a cool streak so she didn't make me stop watching it.
4th Clue: At school, I once mentioned this movie to our cool male teacher (the relatively young guy, regarded as a badass because he's physically capable and also culturally aware so he's very down with the kids, every school has one of those). I asked if he'd seen it and said it's brilliant, isn't it? He laughed and said yeah. Even though I was a boy, I was regarded as the class smart kid and relatively mature so he wasn't surprised I liked that film, and he was a progressive guy so it made sense that he'd react positively to that fact.
5th Clue: This film has been rebooted before that fashionable, for every medium except comics and video gamers, as far as I know (and it wouldn't surprise me at all if there was a manga version at one point).
6th Clue: This film was itself an adaptation.
7th Clue: The number of Clues here is a Clue.
Bring the guesses.
Any new guesses to my two previous Unsolved EAFPBs will get a new clue:
