Same here. Sometimes I talk along with it. Same with Jules's dialogue with Ringo and the Ezekiel 25:17 reference. I can pretty much recite it. And that's taken decades of rewatching, I've always admired actor's ability to memorize lines. Especially stage actors.
You blew my mind with this video. I didnt know all this. I cant believe John Hughes wrote The Breakfast Club script in two days. That's incredible.... and inspiring.
My sister, brother and I quote Weird Science to this day. That movie is filled with fantastic quotes. The only negative thing I have to say about all the John Hughes tributes to his phenomenal movies is that my favorite is never, or if it is, I haven't come across it yet and would love for someone to let me know about it, is the movie 'She's Having a Baby'. That movie is so sweet, so smart, so funny, so full of fear and yet confidence. It truly of what marriage is all about. And the song Kate Bush wrote for the movie, "This Womans Work" is just a masterpiece. That tear falling from Kevin Bacon's face but landing as a drop of blood on the floor.......I don't know how John Hughes did the magic he did but I'm damn thankful he did. I miss the hell outta you, Mr. Hughes and I thank you for giving me, my children and now my oldest grandchild (and the others to follow as they get older) great movies. RIP and I can't wait to see what you have waiting for us in heaven.
AMH is easily one of the best actors of the Brat Pack. Beyond his work in the Hughes films, he was stellar as the antagonist in Scissorhands and he gave a great solo performance in Out of Bounds (1986). The character Daryl Cage was a true departure from anything he'd done prior.
God I miss the genius of John Hughes. Pretty in Pink remains one of my favourite movies and the band Molly Ringwald featured on her binder (The Rave Ups) also appeared in Pretty in Pink.
42:47 a friend and I were just talking about this last night. Had no idea that THE Danny Elfman was the front man of Oingo Boingo. I wasn't really a huge fan, but I loved Weird Science growing up and knew of them.
The Gedde Wantanabe character , I guess could theoretically be ‘offensive’; but , Gedde , to me, created a caricature. He’s Asian, unlike Mickey Rooney, who truly was offensive with his stupid false teeth. I mean, come on, the character’s name was Long Duck Dong. Why not animate it with the silly accent?
Welp! Just helped me get through a nice chunk of time at work going down memory lane. Born in 81' myself, W.S. is probably my favorite as its so wild, followed naturally by the B.C. But honestly how you gonna forget to include the Sixteen Candles scene in the first Harold&Kumar flick? Booo! Nah its cool 👍
Hughes creates teen movie masterpieces in the 80's. Then, in the 90's, follows that up with the goat of all Holiday season sequals: The Home Alone franchise.
I think the days of method actors acting is like a holes to their cast mates in order to get into character are over. Especially with the me too movement and zero tolerance for bullying and harassment. I also think there’s something inherently selfish in that approach. It’s very centered on one’s self, and not taking into consideration what other actors need to perform. So the take home was Judd was a real schmuck, at least during that movie.
Please delete if too insensitive, but what is going on with Molly's legs in the post credit screenshot talking about the banister given to the acters at the 24:00 mark?
The Breakfast Club was originally to be called "The Lunch Bunch"...They never had breakfast...but LUNCH! (My favorite, and best, teen coming of age movie of all time)
I like all of hughs films breakfast club and fast times at Ridgemont high are probably my favorites as for what happened on breakfast club these days any adult at school would get away with locking a kid in a closet or talking to him the way he did
Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, and Pretty In Pink were the first 3 true teen movies he did. I know he didn’t direct Pretty In Pink, but it’s still considered a John Hughes classic.
Sixteen Candles is hilarious! I grew up with it and people need to lighten up. These ultra PC times we live in are boring. “ look how woke I am, and don’t my farts smell so good” ? Just get over your pretentious self and learn how to enjoy a comedy from the eighties.
RIGHT ON!!! That's why these 80's movies are classics, and these pc , butthurt movies NEVER will be. You can't change the product of the times, it was what it was. Next they'll be offended because Long duck Dong used forks like chopsticks instead of real ones.😆😆
In Brazil, Weird Science got out as "Mulher Nota 1000". Hard to translate. Here quizzes are graded from 0 to 10 or 100, depending on the school, so a "1000-grade woman" is something like a "A++++ woman" for Americans.
I never understood the appeal of molly ringwald. I dont get whats so special about her in any of her 80s movies. Even her style isnt that 80s look I like to see in pop culture. Maybe it's a thing of that era that I just dont see. On the other hand, I like the other brat pack actresses and completely get their "80s vibe", for example in 'St Elmo's fire' .
Let me add, back in the 80's no one cared about politics or correctness. It was comedy, blondes got a bad rap, so did different Ethnic groups and smart people (nerds), jocks, cheerleaders... stop criticizing what was and move on already
John Hughes was the definitive King of 80's Teen Comedies. He influenced many contemporary filmmakers, and his stories and characters are timeless. ♥️
And they're still much funnier than anything coming out now
🙏
Weird Science is my absolute jam! Tied for my favorite movie with Commando
I can quote every line of the breakfast club word for word any time i watch it

@@D-Fens_1632 same! One of the best scenes ever!!
Ok, who cant?? Lol dumb

Weird Science is my favourite of the 3, but there is no way it would work if they tried to remake it today.
When it came to teen comedies in the 80s John Hughes was the man
John Hughes made the greatest teenage 80s movies ever. Love this movie.
Still waiting for John Hughes Revisited: Some Kind of Wonderful.
I miss the 80s.....that was a great era to grow up in
Me too
The Arrow dvd of Weird Science is truly the ultimate version
SEEK IT OUT
Please cover, "Some Kind of Wonderful.". It's Hughes's most underrated film.
Man I wish Hughes directed more
Do ypu have any fckn clue all rhe movies ge has done? Well it's more than these 3!!! So damn typical

The first Degrassi episode I saw was the episode “Take On Me,” which was based on The Breakfast Club. I was hooked from there

John was The Man! 😊👍👌😆 - Legend! 👊✊-
RIP John Hughes 😔✌🍁

These were the days when Robert Downey Jr. was passed around with producers and directors.
How badly we need a John Hughes for this generation. Hollywood hasn't had a fresh idea in 20 years.
They just don’t make movies like they use too the 80s and 90s were the best times for teen and kids movies
Great video ❤

The drive in scene filmed at Superdawg in Chicago was cut because apparently the owner was a bit of a dick😂

Agreed. I think the days of method acting are done.

Fast times is Cameron Crowe.
I went to high school with Gedde Watanabe. Only his name was Gary Watanabe then. 😊
Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, and Pretty In Pink were the first 3 true teen movies he did. I know he didn’t direct Pretty In Pink, but it’s still considered a John Hughes classic.
I met the whole Breakfast Club except for Emilio Estevez at Comic Con.

Molly wasn’t that unknown. Her first appearance was in Facts of Life in the first season.
Was that Kevin Costner in the Apple Lisa commercial?
He made more than just these 3, but hey you're video is cool
😎
I saw Samantha Baker's knickers ❤hot a.f.❤❤❤
Oh molly !
Wig? Why not dye blonde
Yes sir.
I had no idea Molly was such a stuck up. Without these films nobody woulda remembered you. Now you wanna be woke to denounce it
💯
❤❤❤❤
Some Kind of Wonderful was his best
that was not a pool she landed in !!
I never liked the broken glass scene in BC because I’m sure they eventually got in troubles for that.

The old folds are dead.... no big deal
😮 You must be a bag of fun to be around ?. Not 😢
