Did you ever go to any extreme lenghts to get day off school??? 🤔🤔🤔 And did you do anything that would beat Bueller's day off??? 😎😎😎

John Hughes knew how to write and make good movies

The 80's had some of the best movies!! Love this movie!! 😊

Classic. I was a senior in high school when this came out. I miss the 80’s movies 🍿

As a kid in the 80’s When we stayed home from school this was the perfect movie to watch early in the morning.

R.I.P. John... voice of a generation ❤️

this movie is an absolute classic

I am 66 years old this year, I saw this in the movie theaters when it came out in 1986, and it is STILL a great comedy which evokes laughs from me in a very special way!!

One of my favorite movies. The 80's had some of the best movies.😀

Funny thing is, John Hughes's films were given low ratings from all the critics back then while today, they're considered classics. 😂

Saw this movie as a double feature with "Back to School" starring Rodney Dangerfield. Loved how this movie put "Twist and Shout" back on the charts after 20 years. Thanks for posting!

Crazy Ruck was almost 30 playing a high schooler but fantastic casting throughout! I’m showing this 80s classic during part of my birthday party April 8!

Ferris's overall philosophy helped me along of not stressing over life. In Jr. High, I rode the school bus 25 miles to school in a country town. Once I arrived, I decided that I didn't want to be there. I walked off campus before the first bell. I ducked out in a nearby cemetery for an hour. Then walked into town where I spent the day. When school let out, I simply walked casually back on campus and got on the bus which rode me 25 miles back home. All just to see if I could do it.

He's a righteous dude! Loved this movie. I skipped a day or two in my high school days. I had a friend in the attendance office who checked me as "in" when I wasn't. 😉

Holy crap!! Ed Rooney was only 10 years old than Cameron in real life I’m mind blown 🤯

I wrote my own note , claiming I was sick . I was 18 , waited for my parents to go to work and got up , got dressed . picked up my best friend who went to a different high-school. we made the 3 hour trip to San Francisco, spend $100 in The Ghirardelli candy store , Hit pier 39 , then drove home .. we never got caught .. best day ever.

Music lover John Hughes made sure Ferris had the best stereo equipment... Carver amp and Audiosource EQ. Legendary quality.

I definitely could relate to Cameron's character...I was timid, shy, uptight ..I wouldn't have dared to ditch..lol..I wish I could go back and tell my younger self "hey..it's gonna be alright..its not the end of the world..relax ..it'll be okay..it'll pass".. " one of my favorite movies..I miss the 80's

I saw all of the John Hughes movies in the theater. I enjoyed going to movies then. Now I never go to a movie. And John Hughes films always had a nice message and you always left feeling good.

Kristy Swanson and Meredith Salenger were my teenage crushes! They both STILL look amazing. The years have been kind.

One of my favorite movies of the 80s. I skipped school once to go downtown Chicago to see a Richard Pryor film, called Silver Streak..

one of my all time fav movies - very first movie I bought on VHS back in the day :)

Fun fact, back in high school every time I was "sick" I put in my pirate VHS and watched Ferris. I saw this movie over 17 times...

One of the best comedies ever made! 😎

I think Mia is just as beautiful as ever. Was so in love with her. You no, the pool scene lol 😆

Best line: “I weep for the future.”

The backyard sequence returning home was a mastery in cinema. 🙌

Classic Movie!! In supporting roles appeared Louie Anderson as a balloon flower attendant may he RIP 🙏

3 of those girls still look very good. Kristy Swanson, Jennifer Grey & Sloane (forgot name). I remember seeing this movie in the theater with my girlfriend in 1986.

I completely enjoyed this movie.

The genius of John Hughes, I can’t understand why he didn’t make a franchise of the theme

My 2nd favorite 80s movie I ve watched sooo many times!!!!!!😍

I actually marched in that German parade. Was in September of 1986.

I had a similar experience in high school in 1988. My buddy said he had tickets to opening day to the Detroit Tigers so we skipped and I drove to Detroit from Lansing. We arrived we got parking paid $5 went to the stadium and he said he lied and we need to buy scalp ticket to get in. So we pooled our money we had left and he went to buy tickets from a scalper who I said looked like a homeless person and don't do it. He did it anyway and the guy took off with our money, I chased him 2 blocks till he ran down an ally in a burned out part of Detroit. So we went back to the car and got our money back for parking and hit the road. We got some food at a White Castle and drove home. We got back for 6th hour class and the vice principle was in the parking lot and asked me for my name for disciplinary action for being out of class. I gave him a name of a student that dropped out the year before. The next day I got called to the office for skipping the office lady asked what was my story this time? I said if I tell you the truth this time would you let me go she laughed and said sure you lie every time. So I told her the story of the Tigers opening day and she did not believe me. I went out to my car and got the bag from White Castle gave her the sales receipt from the day before and she let me go!!!! The moral of the story is tell the truth and don't lie.

Nostalgia; all the happy memories of the 80s!

In my senior year on a Monday morning myself and four others piled into my car and headed to Washington DC to a bar called the Golden Bull, back then the drinking age in DC was 18…..after a few hours of eating and drinking we headed home to Maryland….just as we got close to the Capitol Beltway one of the guys said let me out, I’m going to hitchhike to Florida to meet up with another student that ran away two weeks prior….I pulled over, and the craziness began, as one got out the others we’re debating to go too….I finally said, “how much money do we all have”….between the five of us we had close to 300.00 dollars I ,said “the hell with it, let’s drive “…and our adventure began….now I cannot get into all of the specifics as it’ll we could still be arrested 50 years later🤣 ……needless to say we had a ball and we’re gone for a week……we did get pulled over in southern Georgia and were advised that my father had issued an APB on us and we were promptly turned around and escorted out of the state…..every state gave us a State Police escort to make sure we went home…..the Maryland State Police thought the whole thing was hilarious, but made sure we arrived safely……the following week was kinda funny too…..the school principal was a great guy and just shook his head but did say I’m glad you guys are graduating…..when I went up to get my diploma it wasn’t in there, but there was a note that said “ you owe the library $13.45 “…..I had to pay it to get my diploma…..it’s 50 years later and a few of the Florida bunch have sadly passed away, but the rest of us that are left still laugh about our week of hooking school……we were mavericks and heroes.

This movie, one of my all time favourites until this day, is an anthem for all those who went to school in the 1980s. Oh boy was i happy back then - and didn´t even know it. Completely unaware of what life was about to throw at me as an adult. R.I.P. John Hughes and all the actors that have already passed away.❤

My favourite moment is when Alan Ruck is staring at the painting. Stayed with me for over 30 years. 2nd best film of the 80's for me.

Hard to believe these actors were so young. and so talented. At 18 I could barely tie my shoes.

This movie never gets old.

Mia is one of the few actresses who still look beautiful 35 years later !!! And Jennifer is just as hot as she was back then !

That was a good movie it's one of my favorites

When I was a senior in high school I would just leave campus if I wanted to leave school. The security lady wouldn't say anything to me when I left. I remember skipping school was easy as a senior because I had off periods and I could leave campus for lunch.

Classic 80's film !

Mia Sara is just…my true Hollywood crush. Great motion picture. Pray up and may God bless us all.

this was my favorite movie watch it all the time when It comes on tv

My boyfriend had Mondays off. My parents were divorced and every Monday I was absent. The school finally asked why I was absent so much. I told them my mother's cooking gave me stomach aches on Sunday night. So when they mailed notices about being gone so much. I signed my dad's name and he never knew I ditched.

I love your videos!

Nostalgia Hit, I grew up with 7 brothers one of my older brothers turn clock up and the bus came and went we lived 32 miles from school we all got to stay home it was a real adventure having 7 brothers only one brother was younger than myself the other 6 brothers was older than me none of them like school so between my brothers I miss lot of school days. Thanks for sharing video

Ferris got old. Still love him

I saw war games and it motivated me to get into computers. I guess it did more than that because someone at work saw war games and approached me and said "Gotcha!, I know who you model yourself after" and I turned beet read because I had forgotten I did that and I realized he was right. I made that character a part of me. kind of crazy.

I was just a kid when I first saw this movie, but I remember thinking of how beautiful Ferris's Mom was.

I don't think anyone would consider ditching school for an entire day just to watch a pregnant dog of mine at that time giving birth outrageous

I really watched that film for one reason . It was a good film too.

This was one of my favorite movies

I hid in a doghouse until my mom left for work. My dog almost gave me away but my mom left and me and dog went inside and chill for the rest of the day.

Let me add, some of the songs in this movie were perfect. Please, please, please (let me get what I want) and Beat City for example.

Myself and a coworker ditched work to see this movie. 😁

I never went as far as Ferris did but I did put a thermometer on a light bulb to make it look as if I had a fever and it actually worked. Every so many hours Mom would come and check my temperature so I had to keep the thermometer on the light bulb before she came to my bedroom and to this day, she doesn't know what I did.

My favorite movie of all time.....

I graduated high school just before, literally days before this movie came out. But earlier that year, mid spring, one day, my parents were away, decided to skip school and take Dad’s Corvette that I rarely got to drive out for a spin, a long one, called my girl that morning, told her I was going to pick her up from her house, we drove into the city, went to the park, somewhat similar to Ferris, but didn’t have to fake illness, didn’t have a principal chasing us, we ate lunch, not at a fancy restaurant, but at Wendy’s. After lunch we went to my place and did the bf/gf thing. Lots of fun, then I drove her back to her place, not in Dad’s car. The next school day, I told the school that something personal had come up, not a lie and they didn’t question me on it. The best part about that year was what I did on the last day, those who were around back then will remember audio cassette tapes, the day before I was at the office, I was allowed to be there because I was a part of students council, I replaced the anthem tape that was played every morning with a similar cassette with Alice Cooper’s School’s Out, the next morning everybody stood up for the anthem expecting to hear it instead it was Alice Cooper. It was hilarious. I didn’t hear anything from anyone. The following winter break, I was home from school, attended a hockey game that the school VP was there, I was out in the intermission having a smoke when came across the VP, asked him about the incident and told him it was me, he said that they somehow suspected that because they knew ‘ underneath that nice young man exterior, there was a mischievous side ‘, we both laughed, that was it.

Dang ! Time just keeps on keeping on…

Love your format and the quality of the pix and info. Subscribed.

And mia still looks good to this day

I was a bit of a stick in the mud as a student. I liked school mostly and was "Above average but not a rocket scientist". It was fun to see a suburban kid acting on street smarts. I only saw a few Hughes movies in the "Day", FBDO was one. And has been an unqualified fave since.

Alan Ruck was deserving of an Oscar nomination for this.

Cool 80's movie.

This movie is so fun.

Me and friends skipped school to go downtown to be in the parade crowd. What we thought would be a couple house was an all day event.

The leading ladies look almost better than in 86!

Damn…that Mia Sara was so hot, and still is. She was also amazing in Legend.

Love this movie

"So that's how it is in their family!"

One all time favourites!!

Oh man, Mia Sara…❤️

Damn near 30 years old playing a high school student

Jen Grey's career is almost 40 years long but has spanned 5 decades, 80s, 90s, 2000s, 2010s now into 2020s.

Loved the movie

"I'll bet you never smelled a real school bus before"

Call police. Yes. This will be a hoot!

true classic film

Mia was amazing…. Great, and legendary with Tom Cruise. She did quite the dance in her black dress there😍

I can't believe you didn't mention Small Wonder. It's the first thing I ever saw Edie McClurg in (didn't see Bueller til later), and will always remember her as Mrs Brindle.

She still looks great

In terms of Broderick’s more famous roles, how could we leave out “Glory”?

I thought a couple of the characters and people you brought in with the cast have also passed away...I believe the secretary as well as Mr. Rooney himself may have possibly passed away...I might be wrong...but...

Nice job thank you

This movie hit theatres the day my brother was born.

Mia stared in "legend" at the age of 15 along with tom cruise ..she should have been a huge star..not sure what happened !!.♥️🇺🇸

The Mandela Effect movie: my friends and I talked about this movie at school in the early 80’s, but then some time in the last 5 years its release date was moved forward in time to 1986.

Me & Ferris's Dad share the same birthday! June 21st babies. Lol

Damned, I never saw the film, but I'm in love with Kristy Swanson.

Met Jeffrey Jones at the LA Auto show in 2000. I was looking at Porsche's exhibits. We bumped into one another in one of the hall ways. First thought was "Mr. Rooney?"

Wanted to know how old the dog was at the time the movie was filmed

6:48 Florence Sparrow. That's a subtle joke on Florence Nightingale.

Saw the movie when it first came out. By then my high school days were over. However, when in HS i did as I pleased. Came and went as I pleased and was expelled several times. Seems whenever I had a "day off" I would run into my mother at the mall. That meant serious business; I had to carry all of her packages home. You'd be very surprised where I am now. Tom

Fun movie.

mia sara still looks beautiful

I once skipped school to take a metro bus to see Arnold Schwarzenegger doing a presidential fitness seminar when he was Bush seniors fitness guru.

I never really bunked off school, but I did pretend I’d hurt my wrist and wore an arm splint for 4 months so I didn’t have to do any homework.
