Subject: Favorite Brat Packer

Written By: eightiesfan on 09/16/04 at 8:20 am

Among the actors, I would pick Emilio Estevez because he's the cutest.  Among the actresses, Ally Sheedy is my favorite.  8)

My favorite line in The Breakfast Club is when Nelson's character Bender asks the teacher that eternal question: "Does Barry Manilow know you raid his wardrobe?"  ;D

Out of that list I chose Molly and Andrew, though you were missing Anthony Michael Hall.  :o

Vernon: "You'll get the answer to that next Saturday, Mr. Bender.  Don't mess with the bull, you'll get the horns!"

I also like the way Bender says:
"Not even close, BUD!!"

I like Molly Ringwald.  She's my favorite.  I liked her on Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club, Pretty In Pink, and For Keeps.

I voted Andrew McCarthy, with Molly a close second.

Andrew McCartly for me as well.  I really enjoyed his work, most especially in 'Mannequin', a movie I never get sick of 8)

Ditto.

I like his movies, even Weekend at Bernies II. Pretty and Pink, a bit sappy and way romantic, but damn good. Confession though: I never watch it anymore because McCarthy's too damn charming in the film; makes me feel kinda awkward.  ;D 

My favourite with him is Less than Zero. It's the only one I have in my own collection.

Have you seen New Waterford Girl? It's a Canadian film he was in. It's fairly new (1999). I haven't seen it, but I really want to. The question is, will it be at the next video club I try? (BTW, isn't is a b!tch to have to search so long and hard to find a film that was made in your own country, which should theoretically be widely available? That happens often, I'm afraid.)

That's a shot of McCarthy in the movie.

Mary Walsh (from the original 22 Minutes) is in it too.

Rob Lowe and Emilio Estevez.  Judd Nelson was a close third.


I can't now nor could I ever stand Molly Ringwald.  She always seemed too proud of herself. (Although I love Sixteen Candles, go figure)  And she is NOT Fran Goldsmith!  (I will never get over it)

  I never thought much of Andrew McCarthy's acting.  Hard to care about any of his characters...

  And that bug-eyed stare thing gets really annoying...

None of the Brat Pack is really all that incredible as an actor. Maybe one or two.
