You all are ultra conservative. A few teachers took students on a field trip to see Drumline, so I thought why not Akeelah?

My students mentioned the movie in class today and I understand the actors and actresses will be on Oprah tomorrow! Was once in a spelling bee but didn't make it to the finals

Same here but it was the 8th grade for me. I made it to the finals for the school but too bad so sad for me. I think I was 50th out of about 80 kids. It was fun though.  I cant wait to see this movie also. I love watching the the national spelling bee on espn. I'm so proud of all of the kids

I just read Keke Palmer's bio. Impressive young lady who turns 13 this year. We first saw her in Barbershop 2 -- she played Gina's niece (Queen Latifah) that sparked the verbal battle between Eddie (Cedric the Entertainer) and Gina.

I can't wait to take my son to see this. My BF wants to take me because this is my claim to fame. LA Unified Spelling Bee Champ Grades 6,7,8. Represented Southern Cal after winning 1st against Orange, San Diego, Riverside and San Bernardino Counties grades 6,7. By 8th grade I was too wrapped up in ballet to be going to State Championships, etc. My parents just couldn't find the time to take off and fly all over the state, and go to dance recitals, etc.
Fun (yet stressful) times. For some reason, I can't stand Scrabble, though.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It's a must see. I was on the edge of my seat at the end of the movie.
