    I think what I love most about The Breakfast Club is that it is a movie I grew up with, and my kids, who are 22, 21, 20, 16, and 13 all love it too.....a movie that NEVER gets old!

    Never gets old. I remember it used to always come on before the Karate Kid. Love both of them. I watch them every time they come on TV.

    Not a great fan of the teen movie/chick flicks I'm afraid.
    For me it was Aliens, The Shining, Blade Runner, Predator, The Thing.

    It seems like all anyone thinks of with regards to 80s movies, are the John Hughes genre!

    My faves:
    The Princess Bride
    Dead Poet's Society
    The Karate Kid
    Stand By Me

    Adventures in Babysitting was my favorite. My sis got me hooked on it even though I was just a little kid.
