I just bought a VHS copy at Wal-Mart for $6.49. This is still one of my top ten favorite movies of all time. Some thoughts. - Then I thought Ally Sheedy was the hottie, now I think it's Molly Ringwald
- Part of the origin of my username came from this film
- I think it has one of the best life like depictions of people smokin weed in film

Estevez was the bomb back then... I never could've gotten myself a jock back in jr. high/high schoool...and they usually were the better looking guys... ::sigh:: I know, I know...I'm being so superficial...but I don't give a damn...

Hey, hey, hey ,hey Ohhh... Won't you come see about me? I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby Tell me your troubles and doubts Giving me everything inside and out and Love's strange so real in the dark Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart When the light gets into your heart, baby
Don't You Forget About Me Don't Don't Don't Don't Don't You Forget About Me
Will you stand above me? Look my way, never love me Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling Down, down, down
Will you recognise me? Call my name or walk on by Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling Down, down, down, down
Hey, hey, hey, hey Ohhhh.....
Don't you try to pretend It's my feeling we'll win in the end I won't harm you or touch your defenses Vanity and security
Don't you forget about me I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby Going to take you apart I'll put us back together at heart, baby
Don't You Forget About Me Don't Don't Don't Don't Don't You Forget About Me
As you walk on by Will you call my name? As you walk on by Will you call my name? When you walk away
Or will you walk away? Will you walk on by? Come on - call my name Will you all my name?
I say : La la la...

This is on AMC most of the night! Quote:
Vernon: You're not fooling anyone, Bender. The next screw that falls out is going to be you. Bender: Eat my shorts. Vernon: What was that? Bender: Eat. My. Shorts. Vernon: You just bought yourself another Saturday. Bender: Ugh, I'm crushed. Vernon: You just bought one more right there. Bender: Well, I'm free the Saturday after that. Beyond that, I'm gonna have to check my calendar. Vernon: Good. Because its going to be filled. We'll keep going. Want another one? Say the word. Just say the word. Instead of going to prison you'll come here. Are you through? Bender: No. Vernon: I'm doing society a favor. Bender: So? Vernon: Thats another one right now. I've got you the rest of your natural born life if you don't watch your step! You want another one? Bender: Yes. Vernon: You got it! Right there, thats another one pal. Claire: Cut it out! Vernon: You through? Bender: Not even close, BUD. Vernon: Good. You got one more, right there. Bender: You really think I give a shit? Vernon: Another. You through? Bender: How many is that? Brian: Thats seven including when you asked Mr.Vernon here if Barry Manilow knew that he raided his closet. Vernon: Now its eight.You stay out of this. Brian: Excuse me, sir, its seven. Vernon: Shut up, Peewee. You're mine, Bender.For two months, I've gotcha. Bender: What can I say? I'm THRILLED.

Fight Club could kick the Breakfast Club's ass. And then they'd stick it to Ringwald.

I'd prefer to rail Ally Sheedy, then spank her with that pimento loaf they threw at the statue...

Definitely a great movie. They've been showing it on AMC a lot the past few weeks, though this weekend was a marathon of some sort(80's weekend). It was showing at the Inwood theatre as the midnight special three weeks ago, my friends and I went to see it. I hadn't gotten the chance to see it on the big screen before.
Coincidentally, the Futurama episode where Fry hides his lucky seven leaf clover in his album of The Breakfast Club soundtrack is on right now....
And I still love Ally Sheedy.

Ha, and they played "Don't You Forget About Me" by Simple Minds at the end of the episode. That song has been stuck in my head ever since I saw it in theatres...

Did kids really act like that in high school during the eighties? Or was it just theatrical dramatization?

My favorite episodes of both Family Guy and Futurama were homages to The Breakfast Club and both played "Don't You Forget About Me" at the end of the episodes.
And that's terrible.

They're stereotypes(and intentionally so), but yeah, I'd say Breakfast Club is about as accurate a depiction of high school as I've seen in American film.

Except for the fact that they all end up friends at the end. I think that's where they got the basis for Saved by the Bell...

Yeah, I was going to say that, but really, the film had to end that way to make the point it was trying to make.

Yeah, I agree. It was, in my mind, the only unrealistic element, but, in reality, it's what made the movie so good.

I think it would have been cool if Brian pulled out a spare flare gun and then killed everyone at the end...

I love the scene in Not another teen movie where it pays homage to this film!
If you're in trouble, he will save the day He's brave and he's fearless, come what may Without him, the mission would go astray He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer Without him, life would be much grimmer He's handsome, trim, and no one's slimmer He will never need a Zimmer He's Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer More reliable than a garden Strimmer He's never been mistaken for Yul Brynner. He's not bald and his head doesn't glimmer Master of the wit and the repartee His command of space directives is uncanny How come he's such a genius? Don't ask me Ask Arnold, Arnold, Arnold Rimmer

"Eenie meenie minie--" "Mo?" "Your mother was a--" "Ho?"
