OT: Best High School Movie

[Bigboote]

You can't go back again. This thread inspired me to revisit some films from the 80's. They haven't held up very well, at least in my opinion. Watched Breakfast Club, Better Off Dead and Ferris Bueller. Nostalgia does funny things to your mind.

Agree on Breakfast Club; haven't seen Ferris in a long time, but I've seen Better off Dead in the last few years (and I own it), and I still think it's a great movie. My other favorite 80's cult movie is (believe it or not) The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, which is dated but still wonderful.

I enjoyed Better Off Dead the most of the 3 I recently viewed. I own it as well. The 80s were just weird. I think some of the music from then has aged better than film (although some 80s music is among the worst ever recorded!).
