For those who are not familiar with the term, "Brat Pack" represents the actors/actresses that appear in many John Hughes films together. Now, the question is, who is you favorite out of the group? Mine is, and always will be............*drum role please*..........ANTHONY MICHAEL HALL. Not only is he the funniest out of the group, he is the one that has appeared in my favorites: BREAKFAST CLUB, SIXTEEN CANDLES, WEIRD SCIENCE, NATIONAL LAMPOON'S VACATION (John Hughes wrote the script). He is also in EDWARD SCISSORHANDS and my favorite television series at the moment.....DEAD ZONE. He was also/and still holds the title of being the youngest member of SNL. Cool, huh? Now, who do you pick?

Judd Nelson. There's something about him that I love. I love those chain smoking, grungy bad boys.
This is M'Gurl.
have you seen a movie called CABIN BY THE LAKE starring Jud? It is one of those horrible, but gotta like movies. It is still horrible, though.
Ally Sheedy. At least based on The Breakfast Club because she was the one I identified with the most.
I had a final in my first semester of college and the only question was "Write an essay on which two characters you identify with most in The Breakfast Club and explain why."

I must admit to liking the Andrew McCarthy type - the slightly bruised, slightly cynical intellectual loner.
OMG. I will kill and torture for essay questions like that.
I did see Cabin By The Lake and it was so bad I asked Judd to reimburse me. He didn't like that so much.
It was the best college final ever made. I used Ally Sheedy and Anthony Michael Hall...even if my favorite line in the movie is "I wanna be an airforce ranger."
reimburse with what? He hasn't had a hit movie since Breakfast Club. To keep from being dehydrated, he drinks from the neighbors toilet.
My favorite qoute from BREAKFAST CLUB (and there are so many), is:
"This is a very nutritious lunch. Who did your mother marry, Mr. Rogers?"
"No, Mr. Johnson."
The only movie I really liked Andrew in, was WEEKEND AT BERNIES and WEEKEND AT BERNIES II.............also MANNEQUEIN (remember that movie?
Dont' get Matt_G started on Mannequin. He will quote it from first line to the very last.
awesome. My sister and I used to watch that movie almost everyday
Spider, pull up a seat and have a saucer of milk.
It's true, he hasn't ahd a hit in ages. He was doing a play a few months ago that got very good reviews but I don't think it got anywhere.
Milk? Dang it. I forgot I am lactose and tolerant.

My favorite line in Breakfast Club was "vodka."
"when do you drink vodka?"
Judd Nelson. Wasn't he in that one show with Brooke Shields?

I loved Ally Sheedy in TBC. Favorite line.. I think it would be
"Does Barry Manilow know you raid his closet?"
Andrew McCarthy.
Pretty in Pink. *sigh*
