They live in Chicago, the winters can be absolutely brutal and he is poor and comes from a broken home (his dad puts cigars out on his arms and buys him cartons of cigarettes for christmas "SMOKE UP JOHNNY!" and he hints to the others that he spends most of his time living rough on the streets, so what he's wearing is pretty appropriate for his situation.
>>214300486 (OP) >Long sleeve undershirt >Flannel shirt >Denim jacket >Wool overcoat
I don't see what the big problem is, it makes sense considering a) he's poor and b) winters in Chicago are very cold

did teens really wear coats/suit jackets (I don't know what to call that big coat he's wearing) in the 80's outside of formal settings? I know there's a bunch of teens wearing coats like this in Uncle Buck and other movies I can't think of off the top of my head.

Nah, zoomer guys are more rebellious than any other currently living generation. They would totally vibe with Bender.

>nerd kid gets laughed at, rejected, does their homework and goes back to being a loser
>rich girl and poorfag clearly end up with a teenage pregnancy, a save-face marriage and an early divorce after a few years in a trailer
What's in this song is the only thing I know about this movie. Too bad about all the retarded faux-profound wannabe-inspirational shit at the end, otherwise it would be a good track.

We are not alone
You'll find out when your cover's blown
There'll be somebody there to break your fall
We are not alone
'Cause when you cut down to the bone
We're really not so different, after all, after all
Not alone

I watched it as a teen and I'm 31 now. It's one of those coming of age movies that comes and goes. I'm sure there are teens still watching it (but probably in YT clip form because fuck this gay timeline)

Funny thing is that he's wearing a $1000 overcoat. Either someone in wardrobe really wasn't thinking or they were thinking far too much and decided it was donated to Goodwill and that's where he bought it for $10 (in the 80s, you still could get really good deals at thrift stores).

Allison wanted to be Claire but was too scared of rejection so she hid behind layers, both physically and emotionally. Under those dark layers is a pretty pink feminine camisole. It's funny how many people get her character completely wrong because they project their own personality onto her.
>>214305221 >Either someone in wardrobe really wasn't thinking or they were thinking far too much
They were probably just thinking 'This looks like something a poor person would wear' despite the price tag, and it does.

According to Hughes, Brian becomes a billionaire with a hot trophy wife. He dies before 40 due to over working himself. Bender dies in prison. Claire becomes an upper middle class housewife. Forget what he said happens with Andy and Allison but seem to recall it was generally positive.

Was there a closet full of women's clothes in the school or did she go over to Claire's house to borrow something?
Or was that what she was wearing under her other clothes all along? Only one of the three makes sense.
>>214300854 >haha remember when the nerd in this movie tells them he tried to kill himself and they all laugh at him
This pissed me off >WAHH my dad pressures me to win sportsball! You don't understand I had to do borderline gay shit to another guy and tape his ass cheeks spread apart or whatever >OMG that's so le sad! You poor thing omg even Bender's cring :'( >Nerd says he wanted to kill himself for similar reasons but the pressure was to be academically successful >AAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA YOU FUCKING LOSER WHAT A FUCKING RETARD JUST DO IT! JUST KILL YOURSELF RIGHT NOW, YOU ABSOLUTE FAILURE AT LIFE BUT WRITE OUR ESSAYS FIRST

This. She's not supposed to be a goth or whatever at all and doesn't even act like one, listens to Prince, etc. I think it just came out like that because the original intention(actually something a crazy person would look like, smell, etc) would be a hard thing to sell for a character focused movie.
On 2 separate dates with the only 2 girls I dated in HS we watched breakfast club on my bed. One girl literally recited the closing monologue. I sure missed out on scoring with that one
>>214303613 >early 90's millennials speaking for another generation
Don't mistake hopelessness for rebellion. >>214304332
The movie still exists, anon. Teens can watch it today.
I think most of you were missing the point about the suicide thing. Firstly he tried killing himself with a flare which was the amusing part and secondly it's supposed to be a bonding thing where they make fun of it and include him in it which obviously falls flat these days
>>214307030
So wouldn't the proper assumption be that the inference anon was making would be that the teens who watched it when it was new? You don't have to be a pedantic ass.

He showed up on monday and shot up the entire school including the other characters from the movie. Hughes said it was the original ending but the studio forced him to change it.
