RIP John Hughes

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Aw man! :( :( :(

Breakfast club is a bit too preachy IMO (and the ending where they "pretty up" the weird girl sucks big-time), but Weird Science rocks. And Uncle Buck is awesome.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

Loved Sixteen Candles whilst though I have huge problems with the endings to Breakfast Club and Pretty In Pink they remain as fond memories to me. A sad lose to those of a certain age.

Not even when Judd Nelson throws his fist in the air to the sound of The Simple Minds.

Pretty in Pink was f**king painful though.... Worst role ever for Harry Dean Stanton.

It may have been Harry D Stantton worst role but he got the attention of a whole new generation of kids. I love the man, I'm glad he was in it. I didn't know him before. I didn´t know Ottis Redding come to think of it before Pretty in Pink. As for kelly le Brook :eek:
But this has to be my favorite scene of all his movies.

Duckie was supposed to get the girl at the end of PinP-it was all a bit last minute that the rich prick did indeed get the girl.


F*ck Hollywood, F*ck it up its collagen filled arse ;D

:eek: RIP mista Hughes.
I've seen some of his films (Weird Science! Ferris Bueller! Breakfast Club! Planes, Trains & Automobiles!) so many times in my younger days... the world just isn't the same without him.
