It's a god-damned muthafucking shame that movie doesn't get the respect it deserves!
I mean you got all these spoiled-brat richy bitch kids in American Pie all romantacized and shit. Not everyone lives in "middle"-class suburbia! Apart of American is suffering and overcoming. I just wish they would show more stuff like this, hell not even minorities! I know some white people that would agree with me!
Lou Diamond Phillips was all that kept me from falling asleep when we had to watch this in 7th grade math class... xD No offense to those who liked the movie, all I'm saying is I'm shallow and will watch a movie I don't like because LDP is hot.
Every school in America should have the students watch this movie. This was better than Stand By Me IMO and I'm from NJ. Edward James Olmos and Lou Diamond Phillips made the movie shine.
We watched this movie after taking the AP test...what a great movie :) I think it was this movie that's pretty much inspired me to want to keep doing math after I graduate.
@thejanitorssuccess thanks for sharing. (: all of youtube really needed to know that. how about i hire a private tutor for you? i'm sure everyone that reads your comment really cares about your struggles in school.
@LaTuaCantanteAmanda Hey man, that's a little harsh. Lots of people don't have access to or are placed in a situation that doesn't breed motivation for academic success. I would like to think that I care because it would be better for American society if he did study advanced concepts. The more informed the people are, the better right? Besides, I would also like to think taxpayer dollars are paying off. :P
@Theshark15z well I took algebra in 7th grade and I just finished my junior year of high school and my trig teacher was like disappointed in my algebra skills so I can imagine how it is going to be like in ap cal haha
Per haps this wont mean a lot to all of you, but i read a book about Pancho Villa, he was a men who could barely read and wright, and at the first month of his administration as governor of Chihuhua he founded 50 schools, he belived in that, he didnt go to school, he felt pain by seing poor kins in the street intead of a school, he prefer to page the salary of a Teacher then a General, when he started Canutillo(Hacienda) he seat next to the kids to take class, another face of him.
When you watch the movie when the kids are taking the final test the smart girl doesn't complete her test and says she has an appointment and needs to leave. Some people I talked to didn't see that when the guy next to her wanted to copy her paper it would of messed it up for the rest of the class and they all would of failed so she sacrificed her 5 points for the test and the guy that wanted to copy her still passed with a 3.
I am a 41 year old man who is in University of Manitoba finishing my second year going for a Criminology degree to re-apply with the City of Winnipeg...and I am scared, too.
i am entering a university this fall. i want to major in economics but i am scared because my math skills are low. i think i will go for poli sci instead. i wich jaime escalante was here! rip!
@dethica I am a 41 year old man who is in University of Manitoba finishing my second year going for a criminology degree to re-apply with the City of Winnipeg...and I am scared, too. "I know it won't be long/Comin' on real strong/I was born to win/Never given' in!" A song called "Give 'Em Hell" by a Canadian heavy metal band called Helix gives me inspiration. If you give up you will be giving up on your self. Good luck in university!!
This is in regards to the response you posted to my comment on this video 9 months ago. I have to say, your words struck me, and have been on my mind. I will be sending you a message shortly
@HaxxorsProduction "How do I reach these kids". Don't understand why Cartman had to repeat that 50,000 times in that unfunny episode, but then that line was never spoken in the movie they were spoofing.
calculus is not really hard...took all three of them so my chicano brothers shouldn't be afraid of calcoolus....now day im taking abstract algebra, but anyways this movie is an inspiration to all those people that want to succed in school....
This movie is actually totally inaccurate. The director dramatized the story heavily. Don't infer anything about the real world of education based on this movie.
We watched this today in math class and at first I was like Wow....boring ass movie that I can't even understand with only a bunch of mexicans and no black people( I'm black)....Then I ACTUALLY watched it since my friend wasnt there to distract me, and it was a GREAT movie even though I couldnt understand alot of what was being said since the t.v was so quiet, I got the ponit of it, Never give it people will try to hold you back but you have to keep it strong, He was a great teacher :3
You know, My whole class say this Movie in School today, and we all agreed that This man was possibly one of the most amazing Teachers in the world. I wish he was my math teacher so i can learn calcoolus
@joeystrange87 Edward James Olmos is the guy who played Jaime Escalante in the Movie Stand and Deliver. Jaime Escalante is the man who died recently of cancer.
Hey, that 2nd guy to the end is wearing a T-shirt that says "Plimsouls", which was a great band that played on the soundtrack for Valley Girl. The song A Million Miles Away is probably the greatest rock song of all time.
Thank you, Jaime. You continue to touch and motivate many lives even in death. Thank you too to Edwards J. Olmos for portraying you in a manner that only a professional at his level can.
I was terrible in math in high school. My math teacher was honest yet caring and told me that I could be good in math but would have to work really hard. She showed us this movie and I said, "If they can do it, I can to." I did! I took calculus in high school and became a pharmacist!
He was my teacher in my high school years back in the early 80's. An AWESOME human being that impacted my life in so many ways with his dedication and great sense of humor. LOVE YOU FOREVER, TEACHER ESCALANTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
