Did this movie kind of "kill off" the '90s teen movie boom?

You know, movies like Clueless, She's All That, Can't Hardly Wait, Never Been Kissed, 10 Things I Hate About You, Drive Me Crazy, Bring it On, etc. Not Another Teen Movie pretty much viciously made fun of the tropes associated with those particular movies up until that point.

"The teen movie genre swiftly dried up shortly after the release of this film, making its title even funnier."

Too funny. I think you may be right. What a high note to finish on though.

I think it ended with Mean Girls in 2004.
