Plei - I just thought it was hilarious that these kids picked a movie that was almost 20 years old, sat rapt watching it, and made almost exactly THE SAME comments my friends and I made "back in the day". Personally, I'd have had more fun watching Sixteen Candles if we were going to have to pick a Molly Ringwald movie

That is funny.

I think our comments, back in the day, were closer to acute horror at the ruin of a vintage dress and the notion that to get a guy (which was required to be happy or some crap), you had to de-quirk yourself.

Which is what happens when you watch the movie with the quirky, vintage clothing collecting set. I watched it again a year or two ago to see if my reaction was any different, but nope. Still hated it.

However, I still like The Breakfast Club.

Anyone ever seen The Sender?

No, but I've seen Returner.

However, I still like The Breakfast Club.

A friend of mine sang Don't You Forget About Me at her secondary school graduation last year. The whole year had rehearsed a little air-punch thing for the end of it.

The Breakfast Club will never die.

Re: The Breakfast Club - I had such a crush on Allison (the quirky girl played by Ally Sheedy) and I was so pissed when they made her over at the end. And it's annoying how the movie tries to be more serious and important than what it is. But overall I still love it.

I believe I've somehow managed not to see any of the movies mentioned in the last several posts.

As a freshmen in high school I had to take, I think home ec, and at some point we had a guy come in and talk to us about cliques or self esteeem or something. All I can remember is he brought up The Breakfast Club and asked which character we identified with, I'd never seen it at that point so I didn't say anything.

The guy then went on to do some personality assesment based on our choices, and how we shouldn't pick Allison because she was anti social and had low self esteem and we didn't want to be Allison, now did we?

Later on after I watched it I liked Allison, she was my favorite character and I hated the remake ,but liked her and Emilio together and hoped that he didn't treat her bad on Monday.

I saw the Breakfast Club in the theater something like 25 times - my buddy worked at the theater, so we got in free. At least one time, it was the last showing, and we were the only ones in the theater, so the projectionist turned the sound up REAL LOUD, especially for the opening.

Unfortunately, yes.

Ok, Jessica. Let me ask you this: Was the moral of that story supposed to be "Always open your mail on time ?"

Just curious.

Aimee! Bwahahahaha!

I haven't seen the movie -- reading the book for book club left me with no desire whatsoever to see the movie.

Reign of Fire is pretty dumb, and there's not nearly enough dragon action, although the dragons look pretty damn cool.
