Aw...I still love that Duckie loved Otis.(as everyone ought to) I totally based a fanfic relationship on Andie and Duckie recently, too.
Easy Bake. Flop-a-palooza. Woosh. Pop. I don't skulk.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I think I'll go with Breakfast Club first, then 16 Candles, then Pretty in Pink, then Ferris Bueller.

Joe's favorite is She's Having a Baby.

Because books.
Aw, yay Joe! That's one of my favorites, too.
After that, I'd have to go with The Breakfast Club.

He said that he had that Kevin Bacon moment between them taking me into the OR for my emergency C-section and him joining me in there. Poor bub.

Aw, yeah.
There were some great moments in that movie, really true ones. Plus, bonus young!Alec Baldwin, and Elizabeth McGovern, who I've always liked.

Am I horrible for thinking of the irony if he passed out at Baskin-Robbins? I was just at TMZ...man, I feel dirty. Although those comments were all respectful...it's just *usually* nasty.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
The Chicago Tribune has a photo gallery of various "kids" from Hughes films--they say this about Michael Schoeffling (Jake):
Reporters have gone looking for him since [he retired from acting in 1991] with no luck -- GQ called him "the Salinger of male models/actors" in 2002. He is reportedly working as a carpenter making handcrafted furniture in northeastern Pennsylvania.

I may be too old to really appreciate John Hughes, but I am very big on the Ferris Bueller love. I'm afraid all the other high school movies make me very twitchy.

How did I not know he was an ASU alumnus? I mean, since I am too, albeit during his, like, Salinger period. But it still seems like Alumni Office FAIL that I found that out on a wiki...we have so little to be proud of.
