Very sad news. "The Breakfast Club" still remains one of my favorite 80s movies. Mine too. Bummer. | | | | "I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world because they'd never expect it." - Jack Handey |

| | Posted: | | | | Planes Trains and Automobiles...in my top 5 of all time. Now I'm sad. Curious to see a current (not a dead one of course) picture of him. Only ones circulating are from 1984. | | | My one wish for the DVD Profiler online database: Ban or remove the disc-level profiles of TV season sets. It completely screws up/inflates the CLT.
FACT: Imdb is WRONG 70% of the time! Misspelled cast, incomplete cast, wrong cast/crew roles. So for those who want DVD Profiler to be "as perfect as Imdb", good luck with that.
Stop adding UNIT crew! They're invalid credits. Stop it! |
