the only reason the movie seemed predictable to you is that so many modern films have borrowed from this movie's premise. it's so iconic that it has inspired so many films that you have probably seen, which is why you were able to predict what would happen. I bet that if you had watched this back when it first came out, you would have had a harder time guessing the ending.
Yep. You have to try with that perspective. I watched a clockwork orange and it was so hard to convince me it was a futuristic society, thought of in 1971...I’ll never understand that perspective, but have to try.
@@jaydude This jock, nerd, popular girl, burnout character setup has been used in movies and tv shows constantly!! Like any teen drama that was made after the 1950s had this setup or something very similar to it.
My mom told me that when she was in high school you were actually supposed to just sit there and do nothing in detention. Nowadays, in detention where I went to high school you can study or do homework and stuff in detention
I bet you'd love "Stand By Me".. it's a classic and one of the best movies from the 80s.. it's based off of a Stephen King novel, but it's not a horror film at all.. it's a coming of age film..
@@ericjanssen394 Just watched a really good reaction to it. I won't say who since I don't want to call out competition, but let me know if you want to know. You can search for first time watching reactions to it, I bet. I agree that it would be great to see Marco react to it.
The world deserves an Allison who doesnt feel like she needs to 'shock' people to be noticed. The world deserves a John who is able to grow over his rotten childhood.
As teenager of the 80s I can connect with this movie more than the young generation of today cause the world was completely different back then to now.We were way more free back then and most of us hung out outdoors,so to hold us up in a class room for 9hrs was like caging a wild animal,it was hell.
I really liked this movie in my teens, and still do. The only thing I hated was the make-over of the alto girl, I liked her more how she was and more beautiful.
I always saw the makeover as her letting Claire do one of the most intimate and friendly things she could for someone she cared for. Not just to look better for Andrew, he clearly liked her way before the makeover happened and cared more about properly seeing her face. It was super sweet.
I totally get what you mean, like she doesn't have to change to make her beautiful. But at the same time, I feel like maybe she was kind of "hiding" behind her aesthetic and Andrews attraction came from being able to actually see her face? I don't know. But for sure agree that I liked her better the way she was x
@@rags-t-richards Same. Claire gave her an opportunity to see herself in a different light. She wore black and raccoon eyeliner to not be seen. Claire took that away. It is not about taking away her aesthetic, it's about her not hiding behind it.
@@GullibleTarget I had a very different take on Alison. Yes, the jock liked her personality before the makeover but it was only after that he saw how beautiful she was. Basically Alison changed everything about herself in order to get the guy meanwhile the guy sacrificed absolutely nothing.
I met Anthony Michael Hall, the blond blond actor, at comic con. He starred in the TV show The Dead Zone, which is based on the Stephen King novel. He was also on the first National Lampoon Vacation movie.
The characters all sit around and realize they all have more in common than they think. Even when Carl the janitor sits with Mr. Vernon they relate a bit
"Say she looks beautiful!" He is walking on eggshells! He would love to call her beautiful but, she has never allowed anyone to say something nice because she sees it as an insult or being messed with. When she says:' is that good or bad', she does it in a flirty way. She sees the effect she has on him and she owns it. Isn't threatened by it. Signalling to him that she enjoys being 'seen'.
Marcos, you picked what I believe to be the quintessential movie that defined the teenager of the 80s. This is what many of us went through as teenagers in middle school and high school. Peer pressure and cliques had a big role to play in how us teens of the 80s defined ourselves and John Hughes brought those issues to the screen brilliantly with The Breakfast Club.
You made an important point that relating to these characters was key to whether the movie resonated. The 80s had very strictly defined cliques compared to today. There were jocks, nerds, headbangers, misfits, and the self described 'popular' people. There was a little interaction between these groups and for the most part you belonged to one of them. It's why this movie had such a huge impact with that generation. 80s high school social dynamics were exactly like this. We saw ourselves and we all knew these characters inside out.
Starring The Brat Pack. I always liked "Some Kind of Wonderful" more than "Pretty in Pink", same story only the genders are changed. It has Mary Stuart Masterson as the girl Eric Stoltz ignores as he tries to date rich girl Lea Thompson. Masterson is a great actress.
Some of these 80's movies haven't aged as well, particularly Sixteen Candles (racist and rapey) and St Elmo's Fire (although I still love that one and always will). My younger boyfriend watched it and told me that all of the characters are horrible people. I tried to defend them, but then I realized he was kind of right. I was obsessed with Rob Lowe in 7th and 8th grade when St. Elmo's Fire came out.
This is my ALL TIME favorite!!! You gotta do a reaction to "ST. ELMO'S FIRE" and the other BRAT PACK 80's movies........PRETTY IN PINK and THE OUTSIDERS!!
There was alot of 80s movies but they were all kind of goofy. It was the popular controling jocks vs the unpopular nerdy nerds woth thick glasses taped together with tape to make them even nerdier.
I love this movie. One of my all-time favorites! The idea that we can be friends with anyone, regardless of class or popularity, is a perfect moral lesson for anytime
I met the Nerd, Anthony Michael Hall, at comic con. I got his autograph on my copy of Breakfast Club. He did the Dead Zone TV show based on the Stephen King book. It is on Tubi and it is great.
IMHO this is the very best of John Hughes. I graduated in '86 and this was such a defining movie for the decade - it was the first time we felt like Hollywood "got" us.
Good for you loving fitness and starting a channel on it! I went and subscribed, you got my support dude. :) And your reaction to Breakfast Club was great, as usual. Lol when you bashed your head against your table, I literally laughed out loud.
I think he should take down the video and Edit out the comment. It’s extremely offensive and very homophobic. I know he didn’t mean it clearly he was lost for words however it is very inappropriate.
As a lesbian this moment made me chuckle. I'll be disappointed I'd he edits it out. Especially since it didn't seem like he was referring to her sexuality. Sometimes I accidentally use the wrong words for things too, humans do that on occasion.
Alison was my favorite character, I wonder if she gave John his switchblade back. A lot of people thought it was a cop-out for her to conform by getting a makeover so she could fit in. She still took the patch of Andrew's jacket at the end.
Marcos Movies: Where moves and family are "shit like that" Out of context kidding quote, lol. Glad you get to have channels with both of your passions.
As otherwise stated, please give Better Off Dead a chance. With John Cusack , Curtis Armstrong, Diane Franklin, it is a silly but honestly funny movie, almost reminiscent of the Airplane , vacation , blazing saddles humor. My hidden secret movie when I'm feeling down.
There's not a sequel. You should watch 16 candles or Pretty in Pink next with Molly Ringwald. One of them is really funny but I can't remember which one. Maybe both?
There actually weren't a lot of sequels back in the 1980s except for horror and action movies. A lot of the time they actually tried to come up with original ideas.
to all the people who grew up in the 80s lucky you, most people in my age are just boring, stuck in their phones, clout, and i dont fit in with my generation for some reason, i dont understand gen z humor or trends or clothing, i stick with simple old clothes and i guess im a weird person, its like ive been living under a rock and i try to fit in with my generation but i d o n t.
Yo man, that idea about a weekly schedule is great... when I was a kid, that’s how it was. I’m sure you remember thinking, “YES, tonight is... can’t wait to get home.” It’s nice to look forward to something... Great Idea. Go for it.
Keep working towards your goal man and good reaction one of my favorite 80s movies I was actually born the year this movie came out I've been in the bodybuilding now for about 10 years 6 feet tall 265 lb all-natural busting my ass off so trust me buddy you'll get there
I literally thought this was a typical saturday morning in an american high school. It was a million miles away from the school i went to in south london and i wanted it so bad
Hi John Marcos. This was a really great reaction for this film. I am glad you liked it... sadly there was not ever a sequel made to this film but I would have loved to have watched it if they had made one . I had a very vested life in fitness for most of my life ; I did get out of that life style for about 6yrs. and although I did start back up again in 2020... I have been struggling this year getting back into it . I will check out your fitness channel maybe it will help give me some motivation or at least cheer me up on bad days . Thanks for your channel's
I'm a 97 baby all ima say is 80s Movies are the Shit💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I always thought everything about the time was retro, edgy && overall Bad Ass 😩🙌🏾 if only I could've lived to be in that era or anything before 2000s
The Breakfast Club, a classic movie a really good movie but don't forget to watch Olivia de Havilland and James Caan in lady in a cage as I said before, you love it!😺
@@tonybluedanger9640 It recently got added to Hulu. I haven't seen it in years but I remember liking it. I added it to my list but I haven't gotten around to rewatching yet.
St. Elmo's Fire is the sequel...not. It is a spiritual sequel in that it has Emilio Esteves, Judd Nelson, and Ally Sheedy with a similar theme. It was released roughly four months after The Breakfast Club.
I love this movie, I had friends somewhat like them. My favorite John Huigh movies (followed by Weird Science),Woukd love to see your reaction to that,
I was in high school for all John Hughes movies releases . Iconic to my growing up and legendary movies . Hohn Hughes dies too young at 50 and only got to make a hand ful of movies . This came out in like 1985 . Please check out some kind of wonderful and fast times at ridgemont high from director Cameron Crowe
Hi Marco! I have been on your Patreon for awhile now and a few pols ago you had (invasion of the body snatchers) and something else that I forget. Well I voted for invasion of the body snatchers and I’m wondering if (Your still going to watch that sometime,) or (You decided not to do that one for some reason) or (You did a different one on that pole. Please tell me cuz I’m so confused??
Not sure if you reacted to it before, but a really good film would be "Fantastic Mr. Fox", which is based upon a Roald Dahl novel, and involves Meryl Streep, George Clooney, Bill Murray, and Owen Wilson! It's stop-motion, and incredibly detailed stop-motion, at that. Also, congratulations!
1. The woman and little girl dropping of Brian are Anthony Michael Hall's real mother and sister. 2. The late Paul Gleason also played Beeks in Trading Places. A great first time/share HINT HINT. 3. When getting loaded Anthony Michael Halls reaction with the sunglasses is similar to his performance in Weird Science. 4. The acting was outstanding. 5. I love Ally Sheedy. Personally I liked her better GOTH. 6. If you catch it Andrew's dad is scoping out Allison as he's picking up Andrew.
That's great, about your working out project. I was very fat as a kid and started working out when I was 18, and I lost 100 pounds of fat. I haven't stopped working out since and it's been YEARS. A tip: if you can't do the whole movement extension correctly for each rep (except the last one), your weights are too heavy and it's a waste of time (plus, you'll get hurt eventually and just have to stop for weeks).
one of my top movies of all times. Still like to watch this because that's my generation. There is the movie St. Elmo's Fire that has some of the same actors. They are all college age characters dealing with life and many consider it a follow up to this.
Here are some absolutely great teen comedies: License To Drive Better Off Dead Teen Wolf One Crazy Summer Fast Times at Ridgemont High Weird Science Real Genius Adventures in Babysitting Can't Buy Me Love Just One of the Guys Back To School Clueless Can't Hardly Wait Not a teen comedy, but a bad ass teen action movie: Toy Soldiers Awesome Teen Dramas: School Ties Dead Poets Society Swing Kids American Graffiti
I hate this movie let me tell you why. Also just FYI I suck at remembering names thats why I'm using their titles instead of names. The rich girl gets the bad boy but only after they admitted that they were just using each just to piss off their parents, the jock gets the freak only AFTER she changed everything about herself, and the nerd gets nothing. Not only does the nerd gets shafted in the romance department he is also made to write everyone else's papers. So we have at least 3 different types of relationships in this movie. 1: bad boy/rich girl. This relationship was founded on hate/revenge against the parents. 2: jock/freak. This relationship is an example of a "one sided relationship". The jock only saw her as beautiful when she was made up to look normal. Meanwhile the jock sacrificed nothing. 3: the nerd stands alone. The nerd is the only character whose life didn't change at all.
Totally enjoyed your reaction and review. I think if you took a film class, it'd give you a new perspective on film making and behind the scenes aspects that would enrich your reactions.
the only reason the movie seemed predictable to you is that so many modern films have borrowed from this movie's premise. it's so iconic that it has inspired so many films that you have probably seen, which is why you were able to predict what would happen.

Yep. You have to try with that perspective. I watched a clockwork orange and it was so hard to convince me it was a futuristic society, thought of in 1971...I’ll never understand that perspective, but have to try.
I thought the same watching it. Were the "stereotypes" so clearly defined before this movie came out? The jock, nerd, popular girl, burnout?
@@jaydude There were stereotypes prior, but this movie made them interact w/ each other on a deep level.
@@jaydude This jock, nerd, popular girl, burnout character setup has been used in movies and tv shows constantly!! Like any teen drama that was made after the 1950s had this setup or something very similar to it.
The reason this movie is ‘predictable’ is because it’s a staple movie that helped define a genre of movies
They never did a sequel, it wasn't needed. I dont think this film is boring at all, its a beautiful character study.
One of my all-time favorite coming-of-age movies. John Bender and Claire forever!
Every reviewer says "It was slow". The 80s were slow. They lasted 100 of today's years.
The 80s were a simpler time.
Everything needs to be fast, these days. Back in the day, my parents complained about the same thing when I was a kid.
We didn't have internet and cell phones and google, so to us time wasn't slow
Time was normal ❤
In the 80's we loved freeze frames so much that we even wrote songs about them.

yesss please react to this
Yesss! This movie makes me cry every time I watch it
@@dawggirl Yes, he shan not be named. Oops. I meant shall not. ;)
Allison is so precious. She deserves the world but the world doesn’t deserve her. Same with John. I relate to them the most.
The world deserves an Allison who doesnt feel like she needs to 'shock' people to be noticed. The world deserves a John who is able to grow over his rotten childhood.

“Brian gets no one? That’s messed up!”
No, man. Brian gets his essay. That’s the real love story here.🤣
The shy girl, Ally Sheedy, was in another 80's classic called Short Circuit, where she plays a woman who finds a child-like sentient robot.
Nr. 5 is Alive (if I translate the Danish title directly into English) but it's Short Circuit from 1986. 😊

Yeah, I always saw the makeover as a temporary thing that signified Alison letting down her walls and allowing someone like Claire into her life.
@@rags-t-richards Same. Claire gave her an opportunity to see herself in a different light. She wore black and raccoon eyeliner to not be seen. Claire took that away. It is not about taking away her aesthetic, it's about her not hiding behind it.

There is a delated scenes video part 2 where he calls her beautiful
I was a teen in the 80s. This is an accurate portrayal. We did not hang out with a diverse group of people. We had our little groups.
Marcos, you picked what I believe to be the quintessential movie that defined the teenager of the 80s. This is what many of us went through as teenagers in middle school and high school. Peer pressure and cliques had a big role to play in how us teens of the 80s defined ourselves and John Hughes brought those issues to the screen brilliantly with The Breakfast Club.
I remember it was jocks and nerds more present in 80s movies. The jocks and Benders were melted into jocks who bullied the nerds.
You made an important point that relating to these characters was key to whether the movie resonated. The 80s had very strictly defined cliques compared to today.

Less Than Zero, Pretty in Pink, St. Elmo’s Fire, Sixteen Candles and of course Fast Times At Ridgemont High....
Cant forget Dazed and Confused
Also weird science and real genius

Today there are many movies for teens but there weren't back in the 80s except for the John Huges films. This movie spoke to a generation.
There was alot of 80s movies but they were all kind of goofy. It was the popular controling jocks vs the unpopular nerdy nerds woth thick glasses taped together with tape to make them even nerdier.
Watch The Lost Boys
Fuck yes
This movie is high-key god damn amazing.
I love this movie. One of my all-time favorites! The idea that we can be friends with anyone, regardless of class or popularity, is a perfect moral lesson for anytime
Oh, there's a couch at the end of the bed! I'd always thought he was sitting on the floor all this time. :-)
Genuine John Hughes classic that only kids from the 70s and 80s can really connect with.
90's too
Have you seen "Ten Things I Hate About You"? Great teen comedy based on Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew".
Emilio Estevez is a great actor. He was in Young Guns and Young Guns 2 as Billy the Kid. He was in the The Mighty Ducks.
Repo Man & Loaded Weapon 1 too. ;-)
Emilio was also on The Outsiders with Patrick Swayze, Tom Cruise, Ralph Karate Kid Macchio, C Thomas Howell, and Diane Lane

Next 80’s teen comedy - “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure”
He already reacted to that
@@eleven-hopper then maybe the sequel
Review Dazed and Confused. That's my favorite. Also Rock n Roll High School. You'll never predict the ending of that one.
If this movie was made today it would be heavily criticized as racist for having all white people in it
I met the Nerd, Anthony Michael Hall, at comic con. I got his autograph on my copy of Breakfast Club. He did the Dead Zone TV show based on the Stephen King book. It is on Tubi and it is great.

If you're doing 80s, you have to watch "Better off Dead".
There is so many well executed forms of comedy in that movie.
Classic!

@@charliemac64 I’ll bet a Howard Cosell impersonation he might be tempted.
@@racafritz I'll bet $2 more that sez he doesn't know who Howard Cosell was. ;)
For future reference dont use the word d*ke since it is considered a slur for people who aren’t lesbians or wlw (women loving women) people
Thats what I thought he said and she wasn't even a lesbian maybe Bi. She was the Emo girl of the 80s.
I think he should take down the video and Edit out the comment. It’s extremely offensive and very homophobic. I know he didn’t mean it clearly he was lost for words however it is very inappropriate.

One of the most realistic aspects of this movie is how John is constantly abusing Claire and yet because he's "the bad boy," she still wants him.
Fun little fact. Your favorite character in this movie was used for Futurama's Bender character outline.

Allison is my favorite character
She is so gorgeous
I fell in love with her when I first saw this movie 😊❤❤
The Library was actually a retrofitted gymnasium
You had to set up the stereotypes before they could be deconstructed.
The wonderful thing about movies from the '80s, is they weren't written for Millennials or Zoomers, so their opinions are insignificant. 🤘🙂🤘
Anyway, this movie is great and loved by many generations.

WISHING YOU ALLLLLLL THE VERY BEST ON YOUR DREAMS in fitness ROCK ON
Hi Marco! I have been on your Patreon for awhile now and a few pols ago you had (invasion of the body snatchers) and something else that I forget. Well I voted for invasion of the body snatchers and I’m wondering if (Your still going to watch that sometime,) or (You decided not to do that one for some reason) or (You did a different one on that pole. Please tell me cuz I’m so confused??
Not sure if you reacted to it before, but a really good film would be "Fantastic Mr. Fox", which is based upon a Roald Dahl novel, and involves Meryl Streep, George Clooney, Bill Murray, and Owen Wilson! It's stop-motion, and incredibly detailed stop-motion, at that.
Also, congratulations!
Okay, y’all, they don’t start the movie until 5:34, just in case you’re interested. YIKES!!
1. The woman and little girl dropping of Brian are Anthony Michael Hall's real mother and sister.
2. The late Paul Gleason also played Beeks in Trading Places. A great first time/share HINT HINT.
3. When getting loaded Anthony Michael Halls reaction with the sunglasses is similar to his performance in Weird Science.
4. The acting was outstanding.
5. I love Ally Sheedy. Personally I liked her better GOTH.
6. If you catch it Andrew's dad is scoping out Allison as he's picking up Andrew.
He actually does say that she looks beautiful. But it's actually in a deleted scene in the movie.
That's great, about your working out project. I was very fat as a kid and started working out when I was 18, and I lost 100 pounds of fat. I haven't stopped working out since and it's been YEARS. A tip: if you can't do the whole movement extension correctly for each rep (except the last one), your weights are too heavy and it's a waste of time (plus, you'll get hurt eventually and just have to stop for weeks).
I think I most relate to Carl the janitor
My favorite Ally Sheedy movies are this movie, Short Circuit, and Fear where she plays a Psychic.
God, I have loved this movie ever since I was a kid!
one of my top movies of all times. Still like to watch this because that's my generation. There is the movie St. Elmo's Fire that has some of the same actors. They are all college age characters dealing with life and many consider it a follow up to this.

Love the breakfast club, my older sisters fave film :D
I hate this movie let me tell you why. Also just FYI I suck at remembering names thats why I'm using their titles instead of names.
The rich girl gets the bad boy but only after they admitted that they were just using each just to piss off their parents, the jock gets the freak only AFTER she changed everything about herself, and the nerd gets nothing. Not only does the nerd gets shafted in the romance department he is also made to write everyone else's papers.
So we have at least 3 different types of relationships in this movie.
1: bad boy/rich girl. This relationship was founded on hate/revenge against the parents.
2: jock/freak. This relationship is an example of a "one sided relationship". The jock only saw her as beautiful when she was made up to look normal. Meanwhile the jock sacrificed nothing.
3: the nerd stands alone. The nerd is the only character whose life didn't change at all.
Totally enjoyed your reaction and review. I think if you took a film class, it'd give you a new perspective on film making and behind the scenes aspects that would enrich your reactions.
