Took me a second to place that quote.

I love The Breakfast Club!

Does Barry Manilow know you raid his closet every morning?

Speaking of the Breakfast Club, it is being re-released on DVD on April 1st, but no commentaries - just "production notes" (whatever that means!).

I love The Breakfast Club. It's been years since I've seen it though. Let's see if I can quote any lines.

You mess with the bull, you get the horns.

Ugh. I can't wait until the DVD comes out. I might have to obtain it.

"Here's my impression of life at big Bri's house: Hey son, how was your day pal? Great Dad! How'd you like to go...fishing this weekend? Great Dad, but I've got homework to do. That's all right, you can do it...on the boat! Gee.... Isn't our son swell dear? Isn't life swell? Ohh, ohh, kkrrrsh"

Or something like that.

The "St. Elmo's Fire" DVD has a Making Of and a commentary track and more. Why couldn't they do the same for "Pretty In Pink" and "Breakfast Club"?

*sigh*

Sweet! I love St. Elmos Fire. It is my favorite of the Brat Pack. Pretty in Pink was on TV last night, and I am watching The Breakfast Club on TBS right now. I can't wait to get the DVDs.

I liked St. Elmo's Fire as a kid, but now I appreciate it SO much more because I understand that whole post-college what am I doing this isn't my life kind of thing.

Pretty in Pink is probably my least favorite Brat Pack movie of the ones that I like (if that makes any sense). I think it's mostly because I wanted her to end up with Duckie. I know, I know, that was the original ending and they changed it because the screening audiences wanted her with Blaine, but meh.

Weird Science, Sixteen Candles, and Breakfast Club are probably my all time favorites. April 1 - I'll be at Cost Co buying some DVDs!

All of those movies really spoke to me. I guess I always will be a child of '80s. It's not as cool as being a child of the 60s, but you gotta work with what you've got. John Hughes really had his finger on the pulse of that generation. Too bad that I can't remember his last movie. He really fell off of the map in the 90s.

I can list my favorite 80s teen movies:

The Breakfast Club
Sixteen Candles
Say Anything
Better Off Dead
Some Kind of Wonderful
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Pretty in Pink.

Ahh, the classics. I had the biggest crush on Molly Ringwald. I would have married her in a second. I still have a Sixteen Candles movie poster hanging in my bedroom. It is a nice conterwieght to my Pulp Fiction poster.

OK, if I don't get this line isn't perfectly remembered, please forgive me -- I have long refused to watch The Breakfast Club in its edited TV form:

Why are you here? (Judd Nelson, I think, to Ally Sheedy)

No reason. I had nothing better to do.

Uhh, is this a blast from the past glitch or something? The breakfast club DVD has been out for a long time. Heck, I've even seen it at Best Buy.

Nope, it's true - the Breakfast Club is being re-released on DVD. I believe it was originally released in 1998 without any bonus material. The new version has "production notes" but I have no idea what that really means. We'll find out on Tuesday!

Thank god for that! My VHS copy is ropey to say the least... I shall be ordering it asap.

Erm...

'Impossible, sir, it's in Johnson's underwear.'

In the other DVDs that I have, production notes are basically just short movie bios of the actors/directors. So, it'll have a list of some major movies that Judd Nelson et al. have been in....that's about it. No video, just a still "page" with this info on the screen.
