Breakfast Club is one of the all time greats. It transcends eras while still being the best piece that defines the 80s for so many. It along with 16 candles, Weird Science and Ferris Bueller help make John in my opinion a top 10 director of all time. Also his ability to transcend comedy especially in Planes, Trains and Automobiles and making it into an amazingly rich and emotional movie I think is incredible. His future comedies that he wrote and produced were good but never reached that depth. Maybe it was because he wasn't the director, that says a lot too.

Guy also wrote Home Alone and Lampoons Vacation, two of my childhood favorites. So yeah he's GOAT you filthy animals.

True. It says so much about the pains of adolescence from many different backgrounds.
