got to agree on the ferris bueller. wargames would be a second. now was he in 16 candles or was that the fake mathew brodrick (or was that the movie with both of them)?

Concur on War Games being his second best.

Not sure about 16 candles or Pretty in Pink?

[pwnst*r]

ferris then wargames

[BigSilly]

I've always had a soft spot for Cable Guy. Dunno why it gets the negative criticism. Of course, everyone loves Ferris, and I do too.

[lovinglinux]

Ferris Bueller's Day Off was definitely one of my favorite movies when I was a teenager, but today I would prefer something like The Producers.

I also must mention Ladyhawke.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986).


I watched that movie many... many times.

[speedwell68]

Personally never thought Ferris Buellers Day Off was that good, it wasn't a bad film, just not my cup of char. War Games has to be my fave. When you watch that film in todays world it seems much less far fetched than it did then, the concept was way ahead of it's time IMHO.

[doas777]

I see soooo much of the ferris bueler paradigm in my household. the boy is charming and social, pushes boundraries and usually gets away with it. the girl however is kinda disapproving of her brothers fame, and gets herself caught, when he gets away scott free.
I keep teasing that she will end up at the police station making out with charlie sheen.

I gotta admit I was more like her than the boy. I wish I had realized the message behind that movie when I was much younger.

[Sealbhach]

1.Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?
2. Cable Guy.
3. Glory.

The one with the chimps wasn't bad either, forget what it's called.

[Dougie187]

Noone is a fan of Godzilla? I guess that movie did kind of suck.

Wargames is my favorite. Probably Lion King next, and then Ferris.

[lisati]

Of the really small number I recall having actually seen, Ferris Bueller's day off & War Games (both of which I have on DVD) stick in my mind.

[kostkon]

Oh, this is a niiice thread!

I'll have to say:
1. WarGames
2. Project X
3. Ferris Bueller's Day Off
