This movie is one of those archetypal 80's highschool stories that aged very well. We watched it so many times growing up.

@wheelmanstan 5 ай бұрын

he took teenagers seriously and reminded adults that being a teenager can be the toughest years of your life..and at the same time told teenagers that they should really stop taking it so seriously because it won't last he literally changed the future with these films because it really opened the eyes of how kids aren't just kids but their own person and each generation is doing the same rebellious disruptive angst thing the previous did but in their own way, so you just gotta accept it and embrace, empathize with it, listen to it, be patient with it even with the dancing and glass shattering these films work, he had a lot of comedy in his films, most 80's films and TV had comedy in them and I think that's why we love them, they always kept it light, even when it was violent and dramatic is still remained light, films today might be more realistic but they always seem to screw up and take themselves too seriously and put us back in the crappy real world which is what we were trying to escape by watching the film in the first place! haha @@user-im2ex9zw6j

I think it aged well. Sure the time period changed but from the perspective of a teenager watching this I’m sure they still deal with family issues, problems with grades or being involved in sports or clubs, and the different cliques and friend groups in school… all wrapped in the overall day to day life of being a teenager. Sure clothing styles change and technology plays a bigger role now a days, but the challenges of being a teenager are still there. I think this movie does a great job at breaking it all down simply enough that a current teen can sympathize with the characters as well as adults being able to recall what it was like.

Back in the day... one day these "cool kids" from school suddenly were interested in including my geek-boy self in their circle. I was suspicious about their motives; looking for the angle that sets me up as the butt of the joke. One of the girls told me that they had all seen this flick on HBO that weekend and it hit them. The flick inspired them to get to know people that they normally wouldn't associate with. So I was in. I caught the flick the following weekend and understood. We didn't become life-long friends or anything. But we did remain friends until the end of high school. And I learned a bit about people and socializing. Thanks John Hughes. You dented the universe. Have a warm gummy bear.

This movie was a huge film among kids my age when it came out. I was in high school and kids would tell teachers how good it was and that adults should see it. Sad thing is, for all our assertions that it was important, I don't think it made any of us better people. Not in the end, anyway. People remained in their little groups and cliques.

@orangeandblackattack 5 ай бұрын

Some of us had friends in every group. You can use manipulation for good things and I got the best outta every group. And I went to school in the Chicago area from 1981-1985. There were a few people that stayed in cliques, but when it cam to a party, everybody was invited. To show you how close we were, we had class reunion every year for 13 year starting with our 5th and 50-75% of us went. The stereotypes are accurate, but some of us realized, we all had more going on at home than people realized. I helped a cl;assmate get out of a sexual abusive situation that was so bad, I took a baseball bat to the father's head for it. Most satisfying 3 days in county I ever served. Fck him.

Correct. I know this sounds crazy, but I claim to have invented this phrase (and meaning) in 1972. My college room-mate and I spread it around our college. A friend spread it to another college. In 1975 I went to grad school at a big university in a different state, and I never heard it used. In 1978 I got a job. But in 1980 I took a 6 month leave to try teaching in a small college in this other state. And there, in a hallway, I heard a faculty member say they were going to “blow off” a faculty meeting. That made me smile. By the mid 80s, as seen here, the phase started popping up in films. By the late 90s I was hearing it on national news broadcasts. It’s been an enduring phrase in American culture.

"cope harder ..." comes from a generation that most of their interactions happen on-line, or through WhatsApp or other social media . This movie takes place before computers or social media. When kids had to entertain each other, and you sometimes had to talk to kids you hated, and if shit got real, fists went flying ... so you had to watch what you were saying . This is also why the theme song of this movie is so touching -- "don't you forget about me" connects directly to the line in the movie where they discuss adulthood and becoming like their parents, and "when you grow old, your heart dies ..." . Generation X understood what was up because they / we were taught by movies like this . This was a movie, but it was also education . It teaches about other kid's problems, it teaches about the pain of growing up, about how adults think, and it teaches what to really be afraid of ... -- forgetting who you are by the busy adulthood . This is an amazing cross-generational movie, that you'll have fun watching with your kids . 😊 Also, it was nice to see how this movie touched you, as per the longish discussion afterwards . 🎉 E . Or the letter E . Or something . Hey, you asked ! 🤪

@LA_HA 5 ай бұрын

This is something I noticed when I was first shown this movie as a teenager... That the kids weren't the only characters who were struggling/going through things in this movie. I'm one of these people who understood the movie, but it was different for me than my older Gen X family members and friends because I actually got along with my parents and my siblings. And I got along with different groups of people. Two sides of life's coin was presented: The kids who don't know themselves, other kids, or adults very well, and they're struggling with trying to fit in, be independent, and understand adults. It's all a young person's mindset and point of view, including the Peter Pan idea that adults grow up to be heartless pirates. However, the other side of the coin is the adult mentality and point of view of having to deal with a life they weren't expecting to live, the things they're struggling with, and having to try to figure out the kids they deal with as an educator and a janitor. The educator didn't expect working with kids to be so difficult and frustrating, and he doesn't understand them. The janitor understands the kids a lot more because of his ability to be fairly invisible to them. And don't forget that the beginning of the movie shows that Carl went to that school and was voted as someone who was going to do big things... and ended up as a janitor (aka, a "lowly blue collar worker", who make good money, btw). Neither adult is a heartless pirate. They're just people who are dealing with their lives as it is, and it's hard. Something the kids don't realize yet, but will when they become adults. Thank you for the really good reaction and discussion. I'll check out a couple more in the next few days

@88wildcat 3 ай бұрын

The thing about this movie is that the kids get a better understanding of their problems and themselves not by listening to some child psychologist or social services nitwit lecturing them but by talking and listening to people going through the same issues they are. They can see parts of themselves in each other and relate to them. All they needed was the opportunity to be in the same place and have no other options than to talk to each other. Of course this would never happen today because if you put these five people in the same situation today they would spend all nine hours on their cell phones texting the people in their cliques and wouldn't say a word to each other.

To me the holy trinity of 80s high school movies were Fast Times at Ridgemont High, The Breakfast Club, and Heathers. Each was a snapshot into one segment of the 80s. Fast Times is high school life (particularly southern California high school life) in the late 70s/early 80s. Yeah it was made in 1982 but the cultural bleedover from the late 70s into the early 80s was very seemless. There was very little difference between 1982 and 1978 or 1979 (Trust me I was in my early to mid teens throughout that entire time frame.) The Breakfast Club was high school life in the mid 80s which had significant changes in the styles of fashion and music (the two things that orbited a teenagers social structure the closest) from the 70s and very early 80s. (Preppies didn't exist in 1980. They were everywhere by 1985.) Heathers was very late 80s. You could possibly call it a preview to the grunge era of the early 90s. It was the teenage angst that was bubbling under the surface in The Breakfast Club erupting like Mount St. Helens be it in a satirical performance.

It wouldn't have been as good of a movie if it was made in any other decade than the 80s and I think by the time a sequel would have been made it would have been the wrong place or the wrong time. If your mind is a bit warped and twisted you can kind of see Heathers as Claire and Bender's relationship in an alternate reality though.

There are a lot of things that make this film very much a product and reflection of its specific time and place. Very Gen X. On the other hand, it has remained popular not only because of nostalgia among that specific group, but because these stories are universal- or if not completely universal, at least widely relatable- and each new crop of young people have seen themselves reflected in these stories. Relationships between peers, relationships between parents and children, relationships between one generation and the next, social pressures, home lives, etc. Of all of Hughes' teenager films, this is by far the one that has stood the test of time the best. (Ferris Bueller is a close second, in that regard- and my personal favorite. That one's a whole different vibe, though it does touch on some of the same themes of parents and kids, teachers, etc.)

Gotta love films where the characters have you wondering what happened to them after the film ends. I think it's a great film for teachers to watch because for a lot of kids the teachers are the only parents they got. Just a little encouragement or acknowledgement can go such a long way. Teachers have so much power, way more power than the power of helping a kid learn the curriculum. These are adults in the making. Students should watch it as well.

Michael Anthony Hall and Paul Gleason were also together in another favorite movie of mine along with Robert Downey Jr and Uma Thurman (one of her earliest roles). called Johnny Be Goode. It was kind of campy, but funny. It's another sports themed movie with a half decent message to it though about humility and integrity. Gleason plays another creep in that one too as Michael and Robert's high school football coach. Aside from the spazzy humor I loved the soundtrack.

Loved this reaction. I think it's pretty universally believed that Brian WAS going to try to kill himself with the flare gun. It was likely the easiest kind of gun he had access to.

When I see this movie, it transports my back to my high-school days in the 80s. The clicks that we had were identical to what these kids described. Most of the girls wanted to look like Madonna or Pat Benatar, while others wanted to look like Cindy Lauper. I was a nerd but not like the smart one. It so happened that I got glasses and braces the first month of my freshman year of school so that pretty much ended any thought of socializing with the girls. Being short and a red head didn't help. But the songs were great and the days at school were boring. I haven't seen any of my classmates since we graduated.

15:57 "What's that? Is that salt?" "It looks like sugar." 😄 Heh. It's a _Pixy Stix._ They were _very popular_ in the US, in 1985. It is _mostly_ sugar. It makes for a good, occasional treat, but it's _not_ part of a healthy diet. Basically, this is a scene that gives us insight into the kind of neglectful environment Allison lives in, that they don't take it upon themselves to make sure she has a _healthy_ lunch or equip her with knowledge of what a healthy diet _consists_ of.

Thank you both so much. I just finished watching 3 other YT Reactor Channels that did this same movie (and 2 others in recent months), and you 2 did the BEST, HANDS DOWN! Not just in your viewing of the movie and interjecting with occasional commentary, but also in your expressions (without speaking!) and your synopsis and other excellent closing comments. THANKS AGAIN!

So glad you watched 2 of best 80s this week, this and Field....liked the reactions! In this, between showing the two new couples, Brian, my name too...writing and liking what he wrote, they had to have her back in big room, John getting out of room and joining others before letting go...they all read the paper, all happy walking out, they all changed, that dancing got them free from being afraid of what others thought about each new friends! John dating her changed everything in life, could get a job to help dates, meeting her friends, he had to stay funny, but stop drugs. Having other couple, interducing her to his friends would change her too, and would want to press to her, not Dad anymore. And Brian and John, when smoking, would be good buddies. Why this is a legendary movie, all ones, teens to adults, forever would laugh, cry, angry, and feel in it. Next fact..Brian and Princess were dating then, met in movie 16 Candles, both younger, and very different. He's Anthony Michael Hall, one of best kids actor ever. First in Vacation, 1983, then Sixteen Candles, 1984, then this, 1985, and Weird Science same 1985. Then drama Out of Bounds, 1986, then Johnny Be Good, as a HS QB, his buddy in it, Robert Downey Jr, Iron Man himself! As adult, small in movies, but 2002-2007 was lead actor in series Dead Zone on Sci-Fi network. John, Allison, and Andrew are in their next 1985 movie together as college friends. Recommend all movies, sure all except Johnny Be Good will like, but hey, might like seeing him more like Andrew in it! You're both so pretty 😍

Such a classic. This is the movie that made me realize as a teenager that as a guy, you can say almost whatever you want to girls or women, but if she thinks you're hot and a bad boy, she's all over you. I went the gentleman route and got nowhere. Story of my life. There were guys when I went to high school in the late 90s and early 2000s who talked dirty around girls all the time in public and I'd hear those girls say they were "so hot." I heard "no offence" a lot. If I'd said half the things the "hot" guys said, I probably would have had the cops called on me or at least been suspended for harassment. Allison is my favourite character. I totally identified with her. Wanting to have friends but pushing them away at the same time.

A suggestion is to do a reaction to the movie Trading Places. The teacher is in that, and he plays a SOB. ☮️❤️😊 *EDIT* Sadly, Paul Gleson passed away some years ago. He was a real nice guy.

40:54 "Did they even say her name?" The "Basket Case's" name is Allison Reynolds. It's funny, though. I mean, she was played by Ally Sheedy who was born on June 13, 1962. So when this movie came out, she was 22. But if you type the title of this movie into Google, it brings up _her_ picture with the words "Mary Christian, Brian's sister," right under it. Mary Christian was born in '78. That means she turned _seven_ the year this movie came out. That's clearly the little girl in the car, in the beginning, when Brian gets dropped off. Google screwed up. 🤷‍♂

They actually did plan on making sequels were the characters meet each other each year after this movie, but it never happend because director John Hughes never wanted to work with Judd Nelson (Bender) again. Hughes didn't like how Nelson acted, especially being mean to Molly Ringwald (Claire), and he even considered firing Nelson. But Paul Gleason (Mr. Vernon) convinced Hughes not to do it because he said Nelson was just being or staying in character (in other words, method acting).

When the teacher is threatening the kid in the closet, the teacher doesn’t realize that the teacher is behaving exactly the same way the kid’s father behaves. Or in other words, because the teacher hasn’t taken the time to find out what the problem is, the teacher is thus trying to fix the problem by adding more of the exact same problem.

saddest part is how Bender actually physically flinches, like he's embracing himself to get hit, when vernon gets in his face and does the "fake out" punch to try instigate Bender to hit him first.. its clear by his face he's mentally shook.. but that flinch hurts my heart so much seeing the physical fear put in this child, reminding him of his father, as you said.
