THE BREAKFAST CLUB 2: MONDAY MORNING
Nineteen years after the original, and sixteen years after it would be in any way acceptable, John Hughes has decided to release The Breakfast Club 2. The sequel will take place the Monday directly after the life altering Saturday. Again Hughes will give audiences an unapologetic glimpse of what high school life is all about. That is, of course, if the nerdiest kid in school as well as the resident basket case are still relatively good looking. In what fucking high school is that true?
At any rate, almost the entire cast of the original has returned for the sequel. This is with the notible exception of Anthony Michael Hall who, for some reason, couldn't be dragged away from his role as John Smith in USA's The Dead Zone.
The movie begins as the first did, with everyone showing up for school. Where the first movie started out kind of slow, as far as teen angst is concerned, the sequel dives right in. The second scene in the movie consists of Judd Nelson getting into a heated arguement with Molly Ringwald. Some of the dialogue is as follows:
MOLLY: Where is it?
JUDD: Your virginity? Took that last night.
MOLLY: No asshole, the earring that I gave you.
JUDD: Are you kidding me, I pawned that fucking thing two days ago.
MOLLY: You pawned it?
JUDD: What the hell am I gonna do with a diamond earring?
MOLLY: God, I can't stand you.
JUDD: That's not what you were saying the other night. Well, except for the "God" part.
MOLLY: Drop dead.
JUDD: (shouting to his friends) Hey guys, there she goes. The girl whose cherry I popped!
JUDD'S FRIENDS: Yeah!!!!!!!
Most of the movie is like this. A similar scene happens a few minutes later when Emilio Estevez tells all his friends that, "Psycho chicks give the best head" and Ally Sheedy throws pixie stick dust into his eyes.
Molly and Ally plot revenge schemes against their respective boyfriends, but in the end all is forgiven, and the Breakfast Club once again rises above the traditional high school hierarchy.
Although they couldn't convince him to get involved with the project, Anthony Michael Hall's character does appear briefly. What can only be described as a body double walks past the camera muttering "fucking elephant", and then moments later you hear a flare gun go off.
Poor Brian.
MY WARDROBE
I was gonna talk about how all my clothes are awful and I've had most of them since high school. For those of you not good at math, that's at least two years, but most likely three or four. Then I was gonna talk about how I'm relying on my girlfriend to buy me new clothes and how much I appreciate it. And because I'm looking to my girlfriend to buy my clothes, and she's going to buy me nice looking clothes, I want to lose weight so that I look good in said clothes. It was going to semi-big thing, but now I just don't care enough.
I can sum it all up in one sentence: I want to look good for my girlfriend.
What can I say? She makes me want to be a better man.
THE CLERK CHICK
I work with this girl named Heather. She goes to my old high school. She knows my ex-girlfriend, and she's really the only person around here that I can talk about Renee with.
But here's the thing: I think she might like me.
Truth be told I can never tell. She could just be nice. Well, she is nice...but you know what I mean. If she does like me it's no big deal. I have a girlfriend that I'm crazy about, and she has a boyfriend that she's "in love with." To say nothing of the fact that she's 16.
I guess the thing is that it's weird working with someone who might like me. I didn't have that problem with my previous four fellow employees. Probably because all four of them were guys. But I'm just saying it's weird.
And I don't think I like it.
THE MATH CLUB, LATIN CLUB, AND PYS...PHYSICS CLUB
I've decided to start a club. Not a club as much as a group. An organization really.
It's going to be called: "Citizens Who Want To Make The World Realize That Kirsten Dunst Is Ugly"
It's a little wordy, I know, but I think it's a good cause. The girl is not attractive at all. Not even as the loveable Mary Jane Watson. No, not even then. Her mouth is all tiny and her teeth look sawed off, and I swear upon everything holy that she has a lazy eye. Plus there's something wrong with her face...apart from the lazy eye. She's just funny looking, in a general sort of way.
God knows I love Jake Gyllenhaal. He's the man. Nobody could have played a crazy kid who sees giant bunny rabbits better than him. I mean that. And in my humble opinion he could do a hell of a lot better than her.
She's just strange looking, and it's about time that everyone realize that. And I mean everyone.
