Woke up this morning with one thing on my mind – doing another round of painting on the house.
Then I started reading the news to find out John Hughes is dead!! What tha hell!? This guy wrote some of my favorite movies ever!
I know I was too young to “get” Breakfast Club/16 Candles the first time I saw it but with the fucked up school years I had, belive you me, I totally got it and it absolutely helped me survive it.
Ferris Bueller I still consider to be one of the funnies movies ever! When I first saw it I just rolled on the floor laughing so hard when they crashed the Ferrari it was unbelievable! Then we have the “National Lampoons”-movies that are rerun forever (see Christmas Vacation every year) and more.
(EDIT: I’d earlier made a reference to the Jackson “Thriller” video, but ofcourse that was John Landis, another 80’s icon!)
Really sad he’s no longer with us. Although his spirit lives on in his movies.
