      Yeah, I remember that clearly, too, in 1969. There’s a cut scene of him talking to them in the library that’s longer and he roasts each of them. I think it’s titled “The Breakfast Club - deleted scenes part 1” and I think there are two parts. I like that John Hughes used John Kapelos in Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, and The Breakfast Club. All memorable parts.

I was about 11 when this came out, and when my friend's sister had her basketball games, we would run around the school like they did in this film because some of the hallways had gates like the ones at this school.

    For me, Alison had the 3 best moments: Allowing herself to confide in Andy that her parents ignore her (and props to him, having the OPPOSITE problem, to be able to empathize how that would suck for her); the makeover moment where she asks Clair in genuine confusion 'Why are you being so nice to me??' with Clair's momentary bewilderment and then the ridiculously simple and honest answer: 'because you're letting me." And finally, her defensive glare at Brian when he sees her post-makeover - then when he smiles in approval and admiration she so quietly whispers 'Thank you' to him....accepting the silent compliment and also validating to him that his approval - as a guy, even as geeky as he is - means something to her as a young woman.

    Benders character is hilarious, brutally honest. He brought out the worst and the best of all the other characters. In an era of shalowness and social masks when someone doesn't respect those etiquettes and goes for the kill and twist the knives its awesome. Its painful but its like 20 year of therapy in 9 hours he delivers. He changed all of these persons lives because he finds the abses and cuts it open and we all know how much that relieves pressure even if it hurts alot at first. They are plenty of already well established actors in that movie but Judd Nelson outclasses them all in a spectacular fashion. This movie is a timeless masterpiece. Great reaction too.

We'd also make drinking games out of it, or each choose a character and act along (i was always Bender lol) this movie is SUCH a major part of my youth, it's really wild to watch it again with you!
    There are memes out there about how if this was set today, no one would have talked to each other, they'd all be on their phones😂 I'm glad i lived this era for many reasons, but thats a huge one!
    Another funny tidbit, a friend i made later in life, lived right behind this high school they fimed at. He claims during set breaks, Judd Nelson would come over and smoke and blow lines with him & his roommate 😂😂 Bender wasn't a big stretch for him, apparently lol

    The Breakfast Club is the perfect coming-of-age teen comedy drama film that never gets old because we all had problems on our lives, but try to figure out a way to deal with them.
    Also, an important thing to remember about John Hughes' films is to compare them to other teen films of the '80s. There were lots of them and they were all stupid comedies about sex and partying. John Hughes' films treated teen like actual real complex human beings, which that was new, amazing and always great soundtracks.

      ​@@From-North-Jersey.. That's not true. First of all, the partying and sex in Sixteen Candles is not the main story. It is Molly Ringwald's character, her first crush and her family forgetting her 16th birthday. Second, John Hughes has even more coming of age movies like "Some kind of Wonderful" and "Pretty in Pink". Then there's the classic 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off". He also did "Uncle Buck" and "Baby's Day Out". I was a teenager in the 80's and grew up watching his movies. There is no way I would describe them as just sex and partying, they had way more depth and meaning to them.

      @@brendag5263 Nobody saw some kind of wonderful or baby's day out to be honest. The first was a great movie. The party chaos is usually a part of the good hughes movies because he was basically a fratboy comedy writer.
      Hughes was the second most prolific writer at National Lampoon magazine when they were huge, he was co writer of Animal House and Caddy Shack with his coke buddie and the most prolific writer at national lampoon Doug Kenny(the man who did so much cocaine his behavior convinced chevy chase to check into rehab). The official policy on Kenny by his friends was he didn't commit suicide in Hawaii, he fell off the mountain accidentally before he found a good spot to jump from.
      "Vacation" was based on John Hughes family vacation in 1959, he just moved it to the 80's for budget costs. Why did Ringwalds parents forget her birthday? a huge party called "A wedding" over shadowed it. "I guess all those people who thought we had to get married feel pretty dumb now eh Padre?"

    I had the biggest crush on Ally Sheedy (the quirky goth girl) after this movie came out. She's also in Short Circuit which came out a year after this movie did. That would be a fun movie for you to react to. You'll love Johnny.

    Fun facts: Brian (Anthony Michael Hall) gets dropped off in the opening scene in a red 1984 Dodge Aries K sedan, with a vanity license plate reading 'EMC 2' (a reference to Einstein's equation). In the car are Hall's real-life mother (Mercedes Hall) and sister (Mary Christian). At the end, he's picked up in the same car, this time driven by the director of the movie, John Hughes.

    Pressure can be applied so many different ways, but it is still pressure. It doesn't matter whether you are talking about pneumatic, hydraulic, parental, peer, academic, etc., it all creates a force that presses against a thing or a person. It can be applied evenly across your whole life, or it can be aimed and directed at a singular event. It can guide you to make positive decisions and it can enrage you and lead to disastrous conclusions. The point is you don't have to know what is causing the pressure or stress in somebody's life to understand what it feels like. We all know pressure. Be compassionate and understanding to all. Great movie and great reaction!

I watched this as a teenager and watching it as a grown up makes you think about the things you thought were important then and what wound up being important later. Does your heart die when you get older? For some, yes. For others, we live with heartache, pain but still try everyday to see a light at the end of our path. We are a bit of every one of the characters plus the changes in our times. We are the products of our lives. ❤

      The makeover didn't bother me as much because it was more about the girl bonding moment between them.
      We knew Allison was ignored at home and basically had no friends so it allowed her to have a girly moment with Claire while getting some attention. It also allowed Claire to be nice to Allison and hang out with because she wanted to and wouldnt be judged for hanging with someone not in her status or social circle.

    Though I don't make excuses for his disrespect toward the students, as I get older, I found Vernon to be an intriguing character.
    In Vernon's conversation with Carl, he mentions that he has been a teacher for 22 years, and this movie takes place in 1984. So, Vernon started teaching in the 1960s. And he thinks it's the kids who have changed, putting all the weight on them. But really, Vernon is an example of an adult who blames the youth for being XYZ, while completely ignoring that it is _his_ generation who created the world that turned these kids into what they are.

    great reaction. so fun to watch somebody really go with all the things in this film. I was a senior in high school when this film came out, and it was a revelation for us at the time. there had been a lot of fun teenage comedies about getting laid and partying. and then there had been after school special about teen-age pregnancy, or my dad's an alcoholic, etc. but we hadn't seen a movie like this quite-a movie where the characters just talked to each other about what was going on from the good to the bad. again, it was incredible to experience this film as a teen-ager, when it was released. and it was a big hit! which was even cooler. thanks for going on the ride. and for being so real and truly empathetic to everybody. you really heard everybody's story, and saw why each person was where they were. more people should think and feel as you do, with such openness. thanks again.
