From the spank-bank time machine: Weird Science getting a reboot

If devoting more than 30 seconds of my life to any post is what's required, I'll gladly pass.

 

All BYH needed is eight.

 

It's way too low. SKOW, 16 Candles & Pretty in Pink were all the same movie, and Some Kind of Wonderful was the best of them. The Mary Stuart Masterson character was as good as anyone in his movies.

Lucas was great.

 

Isn't Sixteen Candles a comedy? If what you say is true, I'm going to greatly regret that $4.99 I dropped on Amazon. Some Kind of Wonderful and Pretty in Pink are unrepenting chick-flicks, not even romantic-comedies.

 

I meant in terms of plot line - all varying permutations of Archie-Betty-Veronica-Reggie. That's the way I remember it, but I'll admit it's been a while.

 

That bar scene is freaking hilarious. Anthony Michael Hall with the glasses and the fedora.

"Broke my heart in two..."

 

That's a pretty good list... I would have put Some Kind of Wonderful higher, but then again, I was actually alive when it came out.

Sixteen Candles would be somewhere in that top 3.

He has six "modern day classics" or whatever you want to call them with Ferris Bueller, Vacation, Home Alone, Breakfast Club, Planes, Trains and Automobiles and Sixteen Candles. Christmas Vacation is also quite good, but not even remotely close to being as good as the first one...

Uncle Buck is very underrated.

 

For the record, I was alive when Some Kind of Wonderful came out. I'm not that young.

 

After Vers sees Sixteen Candles, that will then replace Home Alone at 3. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is still one of the 10 funniest movies I have ever seen.

Oh, and Mizz...... Christmas Vacation > European Vacation

 

I don't think anyone doesn't agree with Vacation > Christmas Vacation > European Vacation.

 

There was a Home Alone 3?

 

When they turn Chet into a giant shit, I about lost all composure.
