Breakfast club remake/ Remakes in General.... Possibly John Hughes Remakes, Midnight Run

So here I am again, it's about 4:12 a.m. and I am writing a blog. What is different though is I kind of have a reason for writing this blog ( as if I am writing to stop some major catastrophe). So I decided to look up some covers of songs, like I do alot, because of course I am a big fan of cover songs, I don't they have intrest me seeing a song or a story from someone else point of view ( which is kind of hypocritical to the whole point of this blog). So of course I went to Yellowcard's performence of Don't You Forget About Me at the 2003 VMA's( one of the few good things to come fake award shows.) It is to me one of the best performences of any song ever, it mixes what is an amazing song with with clips that just seem to fit perfectly with how they are playing it. Every time I see it, I have to fight back tears knowing that we as a world will never see a Hughes film again. Breakfast Club is one of my favorite movies of all time, but I think putting it like that is putting it lightly. Breakfast Club is one of the few movies that I can say is more then a movie to me ( a really short list for me), it's a movie that just brings up so much amazing,painful, confusing, and changing memories for me. I honestly think that it's John Hughes Magnum Opus, though basiclay all of his films are classics ( his is honestly one of the few filmmakers or storytellers to ever get how young adults are) Breakfast Club is a film were everything just seems to align so perfectly. The cast is amazing, the dialouge is realistic to the point were even the 80s talk doesn't bother me,  music of course is amazing, there are very few things wrong with this movie. The movie to me just showed me an important message of life really, life sucks sometimes.  Through out high school no matter what problem I went through I knew that somebody was going to be there for me going through the same thing. It also taught me the age old lesson of not judging a book by it's cover, who gives a shit if someone is a geek and your a jock, people are people and to deny someone the same respect you ask for is a terrible thing. So to get to my point, I have come to a conclusion that Breakfast Club is one of the few movies that should never be remade. Now I'm some film snab saying that no film should ever be remade. I mean granted there are many films that probably shouldn't be remade, but I will give them a chance, I mean everybody was saying that remaking Dawn of the Dead was a terrible idea, but look what happened we got what I think is one of the best zombie movies ever made. The Thomas Crown Affair, Ocean's Eleven, The Fly, Scareface, The Thing all examples of why remakes work when done right. But to me John Hughe's films in general are just forbidden ground. I mean can you honestly see anyone else but Molly as Samantha Baker, or how about Shia as Bender ( scary thought, no offense Shia I seem to be one of the few people left who still likes you) or and I shutter thinking this Michael Cera as Brian Johnson. Hell I can't think of anyone else as Keith Nelson besides Eric Stoltz he was that character. I heard already ( take that as more of a rumor because these things float around all the time) that they were thinking about remaking Ferris Buller's Day Off. The fact that they would even think about touching that film makes me worry about Planes, Trains, and Automobiles  ( favorite Hughes film). But realisticly to me all of those besides maybe Ferris and Planes, all of those could be remade and I think that I would be fine with it. But Breakfast Club is unremakeable. Any attempt to remake it will fail, I'm not doubting any actor todays talents, but it would be like someone going back to remake Jaws or Monty Python and the Holy Grail. You have something that will be remembered by generations for being so great that in a way it surpassed it genre and should be on the list of greatest films ever made. To even try and remake would tarnish the romantizism of it a little bit. Really that's all I got to say about that. Oh and why has no one tried a Midnight Run remake, that is one thing I would love to write, there is a film that is pretty good amd the remake with some of the amazing actors we have today, WOW I am having goosebumps thinking about it, sorry for the little geek out.
See you later

Randomness: Titan A.E, Lit, Molly Ringwald, Rammstein, Heavy Metal music, Crappy Films,Nick Cage

So I have not written a blog for quiet sometime now, kind of mixture of being lazy and just being busy, I know oxymoron oh well. I kind of like this whole random thought format so I think I will stick to it for a while, and if you don't like thank you for reading my blog, I now know someone is reading my blog enough to not like a format, kind of a win if you think about it. So right now I am half way watching Under Seige 2: Dark Territory, Listening to Lit and writing a little bit on my stories. That brings up a question what ever happened to Lit ? I mean personally I always liked them, thought they were a good band who had at least a few hits like Over My Head ( on one of my favorite animated movies ever Titan A.E.), Miserable ( one of my favorite music videos ever, look it up), and My Own Worst Enemy( Just one of my favorite songs ever, have been considering listening to it and writing something).I mean at one time they were at least kind of big, they were part of that late ninties movement of poppy rock music that was not pop and wasen't alt rock, but really wasen't pop rock I dont really know to discribe it. Molly Ringwald might be 80s crush, like Ally Sheedy, Lea Thompson, Kelly LeBrock, and Phoebe Cates are all extemly beautiful ladies, but Molly was just I dont Know, she just had something that was like " Man she so hot, but she gets what us nerdy guys are going through, dont go for Jake Ryan Go for Jacob Pierce" kind of thing. Listening to Rammstein's  Dont die before I do( Translated Title), it could honestly be one of the most depressing songs in the world,  some people try to say that that Rammstein has no lyrical vaule, but that kind of seems like a load of crap. Why does Rammstein have no musical vaule ? Because they are a heavy band ? I hate the whole hippster hate against Heavy Metal music " It's not John Mayer so it's not good" " It's not the Dave Mattews band so why listen". I am sorry they try to do something more then depress the shit out of everyone, I mean granted I will always say that I love the depressing crap like no other, but that doesn't mean I think that the heavy stuff has any less of a meaning to their songs.  One thing I worry about is like lets say are civalization is destroyed and aliens or the remaining kids of the humans who survived come to earth and some how find out about love of crappy movies, that the will then base all there movies off of those because they think they are the way to do film.  Granted there are many things wrong with the situation I just said but hopefully you got what I meant. I am a man who loves to watch terrible movies. Not only do I love it, I can only do it with other people so then I am bringing down someone else in my terrible habit. I can not tell you why I love them so much, like after I watch a movie that amazes me like watching Ghost Dog and then watching Killer Clowns from Outerspace. It might be the fact that I love the chesseness, maybe it's the fact that someone could actually work on this and say " Yep the public should see this" ( Nick Cage ?). Also what the hell happened to Nick Cage ? I know it's really trendie to talk about Nick Cage and all, but this is a honest question coming from a Nick Cage fan. I know that he has had some trouble with money latley, but that does not excuse Drive Angry, Ghost Rider, Season of the Witch, Next, Knowing, and G-Force. The man was a above average actor I mean look at Adaptaion, The Rock, Con Air ( I know I like it cause it is kind of rediculious and also goes into my love of just crazy action films), The National Treasure Series ( what can I say I love history and I love the whole Indiana Jones think, thought Nick is extremely different then Indy I am just saying), Leaving Las Vegas, and of course Rasing Arizona. I am thinking of starting a compain of bring back sane Nick Cage, but I am kind of worried that he is long gone. Well Seya
