EpcotLova Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 I bought the remastered DVD and I love it. Its such a great, funny movie. Its a quintessintal (sp) movie for the 80's. And I was just born when it was released. What do you guys think of the movie?
SharkTums Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 That was the movie we showed at my Sweet 16 Dinner and a movie party! Elissa "it's a classic!" Alvey
Movieguy Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 I've never seen Pretty in Pink or 16 Candles, I usually stay away from those types of movies, but I make a huge exception where The Breakfast club is concerned. It is, without a doubt, an all time classic of the 1980's. What I love the most is that it goes beyond the usual "Pretty White kids with problems" format (As MAD TV so elequently put it) and really examines high school culture in a way that had never been done before. Since then, of course, other films have tried to copy this examination in less than interesting ways, but Breakfast Club was one of the first, and the best I might add.
FlyingScooter Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 Loved Breakfast Club. So many good lines/great writing. I liked St. Elmo's Fire always as much.
Scaparri Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 It's classic! It just makes you want to bust out the Mighty Ducks . Ya gotta have love for Emilio . That movie is definately the epitome of the 80's though!
M_Force_4_ever Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 I love this movie and interestingly enough it was filmed right up the street from my house! :shock: I love the Family Guy parody of it... tony the tiger "it was a banner freaking year at the tiger house, old man gave me a carton of cigerettes said 'hey smoke up tony There Greeaatt!'" gotta love it.
Kroger8 Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 HAHAHA^ That was great, wow I had forgotten about that episode! But yea The Breakfast Club is the epitome of the 80s, what a great movie!
Twister II Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 If i have to come in here one more time Im cracking skulls!
Movieguy Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 I remember that episode! They even played that Simple Minds song ("Don't you (Forget about me)") at the end, with Peter raising his fist in the air at the football field a'la Judd Nelson.
M_Force_4_ever Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 ^yeah that was a great parody. but anyway yeah this was a great movie, http://imdb.com/title/tt0088847/trivia
chrguy606 Posted April 14, 2009 Posted April 14, 2009 I wish they would make more movies like this, honestly.
Carnage Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 I don't think I've ever watched this movie in one sitting start to finish. However I've seen the entire movie in pieces, as I can't even count how many times I've seen it on TV. I haven't seen it on TV in quite awhile, although in the late 90s it seemed to play once a month.
Brandy524 Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Funny thing, when I first bought the movie on DVD the cashier carded me. Seriously. She had to make sure I was 17 because of the language. It's funny to watch it when it comes on tv because of the way they bleep out everything. One of my all time favorites, though.
AllenA07 Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 I don't think I've ever watched this movie in one sitting start to finish. However I've seen the entire movie in pieces, as I can't even count how many times I've seen it on TV. I haven't seen it on TV in quite awhile, although in the late 90s it seemed to play once a month. I actually watched that movie a few months ago on Encore, so it has been on TV at least once in the past few months.
mcjaco Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Filmed at beautiful Maine East High School here in the Chicago suburbs. I swear, one of these days I'll do a John Hughes movie scene PTR.
Louise Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 One of my favourite films, and the only VHS tape I still have, as I never got round to buying the DVD when it was finally released a few years back. I love it, so many great moments and quotes. I still have the most enormous crush on (the original) Bender even now!!!
U2Rox Posted April 18, 2009 Posted April 18, 2009 I have three top movies of all time and this is one of them!! I can watch this film over and over again! Just Love It!!! I wanna be an Airforce Ranger........ I think I have to watch it again now, It's been a while!!
emily>piers Posted April 19, 2009 Posted April 19, 2009 I still have the most enormous crush on (the original) Bender even now!!! I am so glad it's not just me Lou! There's something about him and his aloofness. None of my friends can see it but he was hot. Such a badass!
Chrissie Posted April 20, 2009 Posted April 20, 2009 Apparently I look like Molly Ringwald! I just don't see it.... Has anyone seen Emilio Estevez these days? He's looking so old!! I still think of him as Gordon Bombay....
krouvi Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 It's a great movie and kind of a cult one. We used to watch it over and over again on VHS. However, best 80's youth movie in my opinion is Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
