It dosen't even have the same story. THIS is retarted.

Since there isn't even any existing financial backing for it, calling it a Breakfast Club remake sounds like a stunt to convince someone to give them money.

Anyone notice a recent commercial that seems to pay homage to the Breakfast Club? Maybe for JC Penny or another clothing store; I don't recall exactly.

[Slap-Happy]

yeah JC penny

Doesn't even sound like a remake at all; seems like they're just calling it one to generate publicity. I guess that's for the best, since the original is still relevant today and doesn't need a remake.

That movie was the zeitgeist of its time.
That is like trying to do a remake of "Stairway to Heaven".

So it's got a different title and a different plot. How exactly is it a remake of ANYTHING?

I have always fealt we should remake bad movies until they are something good before doing remakes of good movies. This would be a start, if it were a remake. Little early to tell though.

Damn, I thought the whiners that inhabit this area would be out in full force.

That's not a flattering picture of Molly Ringwald.
