The Breakfast Club (2/8) Movie CLIP - Social Clubs (1985) HD

[@icytadbull]

Despite Bender's rebellious image, he's very eloquent and well-read

[@2good4u99]

He's in detention most of the time so I guess apart from all shenanigans seen in the movie, he's got nothing else better to do but read. Weed, for some people, allows for enhanced creativity and opens new perspectives on things. Bender is also one of those many cases where the educational system just flat out does not work for him. I don't for a second think any person can deny learning new things and discovering new ideas, we are naturally curious creatures after all. It's more of the "means" and the "hows" of it being presented to us that serves as a bottleneck currently.

[@lisardo]

Also deep down, rather sensitive and hurt, and shut out by society. I can relate to feeling like that.

[@jondstewart]

Tropical Magic Bender was a totally working-class suburbanite. He tells Clara about what he doesn’t have, but at least lives in a house with a garage that can afford paint and his father can afford cigars and give him a carton of cigarettes for Christmas.

[@erk44]

A lot of people like him are actually really smart if you stop and listen to them. Homeless addicts drop outs you name it. They aren't stupid. But he sort of shot himself in the foot with the leper analogy. Why did he think the other kids were avoiding him. They saw him as diseased or less than. They wouldn't join his club and he wouldn't join theirs. Stalemate

[@youcancallmejimbob.2326]

Not a word of that is true.

[@gcHK47]

John Bender describes Facebook almost 20 years before the website is created:"So its sorta social. Demented and sad, but social, right?"

[@aimeeadesso4383]

+gcHK47 WOW WHO KNEW THAT! John Bender was my favorite in this and I loved it! This movie was ahead of its time! John Hughes was a man ahead of his time and Bender had a point about the school but now 25 yrs later school is now a battleground and we have cameras and COPS running the school b/c the teachers can't touch the kids and that goes their parents too! WHAT HAPPENED TO JUST GOING TO SCHOOL and being a kid? Also whats even more sick is that now Schools have graveyards b/c of bullies! The teachers still DONT CARE they only care about getting paid and when did female teachers start becoming models? Most the kids cars now are way expensive and better than teachers cars and the teachers drive in older cars because they don't make much and most teachers getting arrested now for trying to act like something they aren't and high school still hasn't changed in the last 25 yrs and now kids are killing themselves b/c Bullying and STILL NO BODY CARES it was sort of like that back then but bullying was so bad like it is today! Sad how the second generation doesn't given care and they have cell phones, computers, great cars, and its all showing off and making mommy daddy proud because they wanted to get into a great college and then screw it up in the end and they up in jail or worse out on the street! The only thing I can say about John Bender was the part in where he is talking about his dad and how his burnt cigars on his arm! HE WAS PISSED OFF and that would explain him acting out like he did!*** Even the parents are just as bad! I would never want to be teacher in HIGH SCHOOL! NOT TODAY ANYTHING YOU DO OR SAY EVERYONE TALKS OR THEY FLIM IT! The second generation is so messed up now I hate to think what is happening in the next 25 yrs!

Easy to say that, but it does give him something to do, and it does get him out of his abusive household. I would also think it gives him a bit of pleasure to channel his apathy into "sticking it" to authority figures like Vernon. That, and he wasn't as much of a rebel as he pretended to be - the point that I believe John Hughes was trying to make.

They filmed at a High School that has been closed down a few years earlier. The real library there was too small, so they special built the movie one in it's gymnasium. The same place was used for the interior parts of "Ferris Bueller's..." a couple of years later. The fiction schools for both are Shermer High School, so in John Hughes universe the characters of both movies (and Sixteen Candles too) all go to the same school.

NO DAD WHAT ABOUT YOU! This movie was way ahead of its time this should be shown in every high school across the state! High School has changed now kids who get bullied end up dead by suicide or on social media, the teachers now look like supermodels and you can get away with more things in high School, everyone has computers, cell phones, i pod, police walking the hallways and cameras watching everyone's move! I miss the old days when you could come and go as you wanted now forget it! Now High School has graveyards and also in every town every state there is that one kid that everyone knows about, that laughs at and bullies to the point where they shoot up the school to make a point that one kid boy or girl who sits in class my himself or herself.

You can see Bender was hurt when Andrew said if Bender disappeared it wouldn't make a difference. Possibly due to his abusive household where his father thinks little of him.

[@onetimeacct5197]

they are all locked into their own cells. that have their tradeoffs. bender is free because hes abused. Brian is easy to pick on and manipulate. the others have "succeeded" so he has to tread more intelligently to break them down because they can say sh** like nobody would notice if you dissappeared.

[@joshuavanzant962]

I love how when Claire is asked why Brian’s club is any different she just has this huge dumb look on her face. She has bought the stereotypes for so long that she doesn’t even know why she believes them

[@ΕυαγγελοςΑγγελος-ρ6ζ]

She Seems So Nice And Caring

[@cj8803]

I know how Bender tried to act tough. But when Andy sad that Bender "Didn't count" and if he disappeared it "wouldn't make any difference", it looked like his ego and feelings were hurt a little bit. Bender had the hardest life of them all besides that other introverted girl.

did anyone think of cherry valance when bender said cherry?

Bender was so handsome in this movie ☺️

bahhh the characters are so hot, i dunno why.

Judd Nelson in this scene shows you how talented he really is.

[@KenMasters.]

His talent p!ssed almost everybody off IRL, and led to John Hughes firing him and cancelling the sequel.

[@MrCervantesent]

It is. I mean look at him. He broke those people down, including the teacher without even trying. lol Bender's got a lot of potential and power.

This movie would have gone completely different if everyone would have just ignored Bender for real and not talked. Guess he was the only thing to keep them entertained.

[@thesean3194]

Bender makes this movie. He is the one individual that has NOTHING evidently going for him but yet is the most intelligent and forthcoming person in this group. Hughes loved an underdog.

[@carmen2073]

"Sweets ...u can ignore me if you tried " 😩😩😩😩😩😩

Its funny cause Bender dropped the most truth bombs, and they cant handle the truth. Bender made the movie.

I love Benders little smirk after both Andy and Claire snap at him.

"Come on, sporto. Work with me here. Did you slither the hot-beef injection?" -"Go to hell!" -"Enough!" Bender crossed da line! XD
