Looper another weird thing was the parade. Don't think there's ever been a parade on a school day. Would be kind of pointless

The irony that the actor playing Rooney in this movie with kids pleaded no contest to a felony charge of soliciting a 14-year-old boy to pose for nude photographs.

Jeanie went to the same High School as Ferris, ... wouldn't she had recognized her Principal Mr.Rooney when he breaks into the house? In the movie she says(on phone) & acts like he is a total stranger.

I always wondered what happened to Cameron. He just seemed so depressed. I always wanted to see a sequel about his college and adult days. But, I wondered why they glossed over his depression? He clearly needed help.

How about when Mrs. Bueller is lamenting her day--during the drive home from the police station--she mentions how the commission she lost would've been enough to get Ferris a car... just before he darts across the road, forcing Jeannie to slam on brakes, thus distracting the audience from realizing there was one consequence to his actions: screwing himself out of getting a nice, new car.

It's clear like water that Ferris got the computer but wanted a car, so if his parents could afford that, an 8-grand keyboard wouldn't be a hassle.

The mum said she would get ferris a new car with the commission from the Vermont people property deal. Are they rich or not?

Yeah, back in the 80's you bet they were.

Yeah. The film is rich kid gets away with everything.

I like to think all their fancy toys are abandoned crap his dad just found in some of his buildings.

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!? NO WAY!!!

Revisionist history.

Wait what?!

Fart Wars

It's in a galaxy far far away.

Suspension of disbelief is for the 80s just as fact-checking is for the 2020s.

My thoughts exactly.

Yeah, I mean hell, like they let him on the parade float. It's good clean fun, so just enjoy it.

Nailed It! This just proves how pathetic modern commentators are. I think they work for Buzzfeed, or some other idiotic media outlet

I don't know, I don't think Ferris was expecting the valets to take the car on a joy ride and Cameron destroying his dad's car.

Best quote in this movie: “You killed the car!”

I always assumed Cameron died at the end - his dad killed him upon discovering the wrecked car.

true

Narrator is obviously a billionaire.

Yeah, them living in the north shore (especially Winnetka) is evidence enough of their wealth.

Yes. No evidence his parents are that well off. And, vintage Ferrari. Um... Wait what? The parents are clearly in a fairly high income bracket.

@@puppetsock That's Cameron's dad. Cameron is portrayed as the rich kid.

When millenials try to analyse the ‘80s 🙄

As a teen in the 2010's, he was the envy for me too

🤣🤣🤣IKR!

Even his own sister.

This is Ferris Bueller we're talking about, after all. He was probably given that synth keyboard by Depeche Mode!

Holy shit. Which 80's are you talking about??!

I remember the 80s, but um...oh, I guess "Jungle Book" wasn't too terrible

Hey now... 80s movies are what todays movie ATTEMPT to be. And they can't do it. Why do you think they are remaking them all And ruining them.

I remember the 80's, but apparently you don't. We LOVE to remember the good, original, and creative movies, but some of us (you) also LOVE to forget all the garbage we were bombarded with. Seriously, there was a ton of crap back then - just like now - and the crap was far worse than today's crap.

Thank goodness we are now in a time of peace and no longer being bombarded by Movies!

It was a pretty crap list. I thought they were going to pick up on ADULT culture references, naughty INTERESTING stuff... Nope, just a crappy list of minor errors.

Alistair Thorn p

@@trex2957 "Errors". They're only errors if the filmmakers intended on making it realistic. If not - if it was a satire of some type - then I'd expect they were intentional.

SAME!

Hahaha exactly!

And anyone who lives in Chicago knows that just travelling between those destinations would take an entire school day!

It's a fantasy folks, chill.

Ferris can control time it’s obvious lol the perfect timeline would have been to hit the art gallery around 10am after that mingle at the parade for a bit go to restaurant and be at game in time for first pitch leave game early enough to get back to back home before his parents got home I know it sounds wild but he could have planned everything based on his parents routine he knew his parents would check up on him At some point and had to be home to answer phone lol

Actually, if I was a drunk/dope smoking teenager again in the 80s on a skip day, I could probably get most of this done. Exchange then gallery, then a swim, have some lunch, see some parade and hit an afternoon double header. Traffic wasn’t that bad in the 80’s and I had a car. My girlfriend was better looking too. Off the top of my head I recall one day we skip class after 1st period, went drinking at a buddies house, the space shuttle blew up, we went to lunch, performed in an airband competition at high schooled, were threatened with school suspension for cross dressing during the air band thing, then crossed a border to go drinking in a bar. My buddy who was still wearing a Tina turner wig for some reason had sex with a stripper in my car. The rest of the afternoon and into the evening got considerably more out of hand.

Epic!

Paramarta, no, that was a huge sticking point with me and many others I think. That should scene should have been cut out or never happened actually. Rooney could have bought the dog a Gyro, Chicago hot dog or Deepdish Pizza. It would have fit SO much better

@@bobbyhullfan1077 😂🤣

Fair point, but the audience is informed that the dog is totally fine because we not only see it wake up, but also get its revenge by attacking Rooney at the very end. If they had just left the dog in the alley, that would be dark!

@@DarkHelmet1976 I must admit I was rather aghast when I saw the dog lying there apparently dead from getting hit by that flower pot, but relieved when it woke up and attacked Rooney. I wasn't worried about Rooney. 😁

I'm 50. If a friend of mind points these out to me, he/she would no longer be my friend

principal in the movie hit the sister's butt, shrugged off the dad (ferris) making out with the daughter (gf) thing and was convicted of child molestation later on. That guy also appeared in howard the duck as the bad guy. He had access to dozens of children while working and if this movie was so laissez faire about incest and principals touching students butts, its likely because the director and producers were pedos too. Hollywood has been trying to normalize this evil behavior for fifty years. At some point we, as a people, have to say NO MORE. No more statute of limitations, no more laws that make molestation a lesser crime than raping a full grown woman, no more judges giving only probation for abuse, NO MORE LETTING THOSE WHO STAND BY AND DO NOTHING GET AWAY WITH NO CHARGES!

P Stead :"there's nothing worth mentioning here" ... I politely disagree. I just very recently rewatched the movie, and while most things mentioned here escaped my attention, the "gifts and flowers" raised my eyebrows. Because that point is valid. Who brought that stuff into the house and decorated the hallway with it? I'm pretty sure I didn't notice that when I saw the movie as a teenager...but today? Yeah - it definitely stands out.

Never mind the fact that their house is a 7 bedroom, 5 bathroom, 4900 square foot house with a pool. It's worth 1.6 million today, and Cameron's house was designed a a famous architect. Obviously just based on the fact that he had a vintage Ferrari that was worth 6 figures back then also adds to teh fact that both families were very well off.

Yeah the house is in Longbeach.

D.M.Turner nailed it

also...the fact that he has all those things go further to the absurb point that he doesnt have a car

Point is, it was made to be funny, not to make perfect logical sense. People are so stupid these days.

And when Ferris picks her up from school Rooney was already on the steps with her waiting.. We have no idea how long they were waiting, only that they were waiting.

I guess my school was the only school to ever have late buses.. Our's was on Tuesday's and Thursday, there was a 6pm late bus for ppl who stayed after school for tutoring or whatever.

good point

PROTEST!

Remember Jeanie got a new car for her birthday. Ferris got a new computer. Back then a computer was expensive back in the 1980s, maybe about $1,200 A new car was about $7,000 in the 80s. So Ferris' parents could have had good jobs that paid very well. Ferris' mother was a realtor. A realtor can make over $100,000 a year working full time.

Yeah, its like the people that say theres no evidence that socialism has ever been tried before. Or the people that say theres no evidence that hating white people is racism.

They even mention his dad working at the stock exchange. Rofl!

And PUBLIC school?

Besides Ferris is that sort of kid that could charm a store owner into giving him what he wants for a fraction of the price

hey, just bcause theey richh doesn't mean my live ain't hard as other okay get it right an you will all an is be

dildonius so off brand cinema sins

🤣

🤣🤣🤣👍

Even some documentaries, considering that a) truth is often stranger than fiction, and b) many documentaries either stretch the truth or outright lie.

Agreed, that is why I don't watch any 'Everything wrong with .... movies, videos any more. I don't watch movies, any movies, and look to see what is wrong with them. Exception - I dislike, very much, movies based on otherwise great books where entire parts of the book are completely destroyed.

james madison Hey James, the #9 theme runs thruout the movie. 9 wardrobe changes, 9 absences, G.Howe's #9 Detroit jersey, etc.

Awesome catch.

Damn, man. I'm 50 and I can't remember how many times I've watched it and never realized it. Like JJ said, awesome catch.

That’s not irony.

Tree Corleone I know it's not irony, but that's what most people think irony is. So I wrote it like that for people to understand. But nice of you to notice. :-)

SoldierPayne ...yeah I know what you meant. I just felt like being that guy.

And as an adult you’re still using the word irony incorrectly.

07foxmulder I blame that to not have English as my native language. :-) Born and raised in Sweden.

A lot of scenes were filmed there but the Bueller family house is in Long Beach, CA. You would think Hughes could have found a house in Winnetka for that...

“Identity crisis” or she could just be a good faker like Ferris only she uses looks instead of charm lol

easy buddy

Like Heart and Souls with Robert Downey Jr!

It was a bus full of poor kids that probably were in detention that day and who live outside of the catchment area on the wrong side of the tracks.

lemsip I think it is probably a joke

@@erinoldcoot3381 That's a good RDJ movie. Also, Only You with Marissa Torme.

true

Thank you Simone.

she rarely spoke in the movie

She didn't have to speak

still

You can see her naked in Time Cop getting it on with Jean Claude Van Damme.

KesselRunner606 Mia was pretty, but I had a mad crush on Phoebe Cates! She was my 1st. Then came Jennifer Connelly & Megan Fox.

Yeah, adults don't watch FB.

+LINDA H Are you kidding, I love to watch it. Funny is good for you, and this is Laurel and Hardy funny, can't get funnier than that, and beside it is done without scatological humor. By the way, I'm 74 yrs young.

"Well I've got it right here in front of me. Wake up and smell the coffee. He's just LEADING you down the primrose path." lol

That's probably because he wasn't changing. He was photoshopping clothes.

@@trevjo He did have a top of the line (for the time) computer. Why not!

I've seen this film at least 200 times since 1986 lol

+shitfoo no.

ChowDownDetroit [Seoung Lee] THANK YOU. AMEN.

It's a movie that I can watch, then watch it the very next night and not get bored of it. Same with Terminator 2 and The Blues Brothers. Best films in my opinion.

Back when it came out on cable, I found it amusing for a couple of viewings. Beyond that, I didn't care to watch it anymore. "Better Off Dead"... that, I could watch over and over. "Two dollars!!!"

Now that's something only an adult would notice.

You're not alone. Jan 2024 and the like to dislike ratio is 2:1. That's pretty high. On average, it's more like 10:1.

Beuller's dad drives a top of the line (for the time) Audi 5000, so they apparently have a bit of coin.

jumbofordman and that Chrysler Town & Country LeBaron station wagon that Mrs. Bueller drove was quite an expensive midsize station wagon back in its day too. Yes it was a midsize despite being small by today’s standards.

jumbofordman And his friend's dad had a 1961 GT 250 Spyder, which one recently sold for £5.5 million, which I would expect is north of $10 million American. So we discount it say to half million. He friend has bucks. His mother was a real estate agent and his father was going to lunch at that swanky restaurant after all. Looper missed the boat on that "fact".

The idiots who make these videos have 3 brain cells among them, so it makes sense.

LoL Long Beach baby thats my town

ya but they woulda been in school too...

@@jonp2338 If you notice the gifts are seen when the parents get home. Likely the two younger kids would have been home around the time Jeanie got home.

nice 'get'

Eric "get"?

good catch...good observation.

Eric Oh! Thank ya. Although I didn't come up with it ^^

I don't remember his being sick nine times. Maybe it's because he wasn't really sick. Been too busy skipping school. LOL

Ferris was kinda dressed like a Frenchie.

You still don't understand his comment.

Troll.

That guy was later convicted of child molestation. Looper doesn't mention it because its too obvious or too dark for this vid. He also hit ferris' sister's butt. I think the look on her face says that was ad-libbed. But to insert the dad makeout scene in the movie tells me the writer and producer and or director are trying to turn incest in to something funny or normal. Thats hollywood for you.

It were different times...

his sister got the car that he wanted. which was cheaper than the synth and the computer. realistically they should've just gotten him a car instead.

oldfrend I quote, "I asked for a car; I got a computer. How's that for being born under a bad sign?"

His sister's car cost at least 8 grand. He got a computer and that sampler.

-The bus could also have been between Rooney chasing his being-towed-away car, and later, going back to Ferris's house. In between, he might have gotten a lift from the bus and then gotten a rental car to go back to Ferris' house to (almost) bust him.

Marty Klestadt hi

Or it simply happened earlier. After Rooney was chasing after his car and before he returned to the Bueller house.

Good try, but what school trip comes back after 6, unless they went to a Six Flags kinda trip, driving through the suburbs, kids with school books.......really.....this whole movie was a FANTASTIC FANTASY.......NO NEED TO EXPLAIN ANYTHING AT ALL

@@2riverageo I think it was based on a true story

"If I'm going to get busted, it's not going to be from a guy like that!"

They didn't stay for the entire game. They went to the parade passing through and stopped for Danke Schoen (2:33) and Twist and Shout (2:49) so that was under 6 minutes. As the Sausage King, he received quick service at lunch (easily under an hour). I think you just linger too long on KZfaq :)

There was plenty of time because the script said so.

Not to mention the Art Institute.

Yes but how did they have the argument after the phone call, make up, go to Cameron's house, pick up the Ferrari and then get to the school within 10 minutes?

MavenCree 10 minutes isn't usually taken literally. It's way of saying "I'll be there or see you really soon".

You need to understand "Chicago time". 10 minutes = a half hour or more. I found that out the hard way one time when I asked how long it took to get to the church for a wedding.

Exactly. I lived with in walking distance of every school I lived in except high school, and if the district hadn't decided to build a new school, instead of fixing the old one, it would have been. And yes, a LOT of walking to and from home that took maybe 10 minutes at most.

And it could have taken more than 10 minutes for them to inform the school nurse and have her go get Sloan out of the class and then meet up with Rooney and go outside. And they had a Ferrari.

This and Risky Business, are 2 of my favorite movies of this time frame, and both are set in Chicago.

I thought it was gloomy. Truth of the matter about that era was. That in the 80s there would of been absolutely no reason to take a day off from high school that's how great 80s high school was. So the movie began of balance with me. But I liked the scenes of Chicago. It's just in the nd. There would of been no reason to take a day off from high school 84-88.

ray bon I bet you're fun at parties 😂😂

sucklefucker hardwick NICE!!!! 👍👍👍😂😂😂

good show ol chap i think we crack the case my dear watson

Who takes kids to a field for a trip, Some sort of hippie farmer??? I think you got your words mixed up man.

Indeed we can.

Cameron gets nothing. His character was designed that way.

@@marccolten9801 Cameron gets IBS.

Yep. Exactly.

Not like that they don't. This wasn't some baseball or softball team coming back from a game. This was an assortment of different types of kids, male/female, nerds/trouble makers. Also they seem to be middle school aged. This was a screw up, but at least it was funny

Ohhh, good point!

Not rich, more like middle class.

@shitfoo Which means having a whole lot less stuff these days.

No, his movies are never from just one perspective-his talent lay in accurately depicting kids from poor homes, wealthy homes, nerds and popular kids, stoners and jocks, etc. He understood everyone, not just the rich kids, which is why his movies are still very watchable. Watch The Breakfast Club. Also, ignore Looper-this bit is complete bullshit.

+Brandon Wiesner have no idea what you're talking about dude. Dorothy b is right. some characters are poor, (Pretty in Pink) most are middle class. Although in Home Alone the family is pretty wealthy. Looper is complete shit.

Yup, because nothing screams "I am poor" like having a cell phone.....Lol

They clearly didn't even watch it, or even watch the scenes they describe. Especially for a video supposedly showing what adults catch that kids miss, it's amazing they missed this. The "singing telegram": I heard that you were feeling ill Headache, fever, and a chill I came to help restore your pluck Because I'm the nurse who likes to ... [door slams] Hmmm, what rhymes with "pluck"?

Yamin Thein Yeah, it's not as if expect comedies to be realistic.

Yamin Thei

Yep. The schools I taught at had this kind of setup as well. Especially on late sports afternoons.

give you good luck?

"Give quality health care at an affordable price." ...what?

"Stick things in orifices"

....file your taxes and check your monthly deductibles

Help you move to your new apartment.

Jon Gilbertson or they could've spent a limited time at each location. Like maybe 30 mins per place.

So they went to Chez Joseph just to lie to the waiter about being the Sausage King, and so Ferris could go to the restroom and give a speech about Camron and his dad's Ferrari. Then they had to leave right away before even their bread arrived. That would be exhausting. I would rather stay in school, if that was the case.

It doesn't take that long to get to Chicago from Winnetka unless you try it during rush hour.

I was thinking the same thing and esp after they wasted so much time in the early morning.

u obviously dont know what a "bit" is. the writer of the movie is "putting one on" ,its '80s comedy,still funnier than most stuff these days

I saw it at the theater in 86 when I was 13 and wondered how he managed to change clothes every few scenes. Time/space implausibilities exist in nearly every movie set over the course of a day so I tend to tune them out in general. The nice toys just reinforced that they had wealthy, yuppie parents who in the 1980's were being told to buy kids shit to makeup for leaving a generation home alone.

i call bullshit
