Wow, I don't know how often I've watched Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller, but it must be over ten times each. Classic films, imo, and really a part of my childhood. Thanks John Hughes, and may you RIP....  :(

WTF! I've just seen this now, not had internet/telly access for 2 days. A lot of his films are featured in my DVD collection, pure classics :(
