Marty played rock and roll guitar. Cooler and more of a chick magnet.

Ferris bueller was a high functioning, manipulative sociopath.

Oh, they were so mad that they were tryin' to kill erryone out there. If Marty didn't get to 88 mph, he'd have been as dead as Doc Brown was.

Irrelevant and unknowable. That would be after the events of the film... but yeah, probably so.

In fairness, after Marty changed history and turned Jennifer into Elisabeth Shue, it became a lot closer contest.

Sloane still wins, though.

Yeah, Elizabeth Shue was a massive upgrade.

Marty easily. He was cool and likeable. Ferris was a cocky, selfish little dipshit.

Ferris was technically cooler, but I prefer McFly.

If doc brown doesnt steal plutonium from terrorists who believe he is building a nuke fir them. Marty never has issues with them.

Ferris wouldnt have fought Biff who was a legit 6'3" 225+ in highschool. Who legit tried to kill him at least twice. Who should have been playing linebacker instead of worrying about Lorraine..in 1955 would have been an all american.

Oh, well, he's very popular, The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wasteoids, dweebies, dickheads — They all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude.

Nobody wanted to kill Ferris.


People wanting to kill you has nothing to do with if you're cool. If that was the case James bond must be a massive nerd.

Like a retard who doesnt really belong, but doesnt realise everyone is just being nice to them because its in poor taste to just be outright brutally honest.

pretty sure the crowd at the Parade Ferris sang for was bigger than the prom scene.

Any drunk chick at a party can sing. Marty put in the time as a real musician.

Ferris was all "look at me look at me" and made everything about his personal enjoyment, regardless of the cost to others. I hope Cameron's dad sued the piss out of him.

Plus, Michael J. Fox is a national treasure. MB is a squirrel boy.

First I was quoting "grace" from Ferris Bueller in case you didn't notice. With the Dabo dig, if only there was a "more sports" or SEC Rant Board were a fan could troll sports themed topics

Not a fricking chance. Not even remotely in the same ballpark.

Marty:

Played guitar
Skated and hitched rides from trucks
Gave Chuck Berry his sound that he'd been looking for.
Saved his parent's marriage and in doing so made them cool.
Then gets a cool 4X4.
Saved the life of his best friend.

Ferris:

Sucks at the instrument he has tried to play.
Doesn't own a car
Best friend basically hates him
Is a Cubs fan
Almost ends the life of his best friend by demolshing his car.
And is failing High School

But he had Mia Sara...so I guess it's a wash.
