Ok, everybody, take a deep breath and relax. You're gonna wanna sit down for this one. THE BREAKFAST CLUB, the John Hughes directed teen angst classic, is being remade. Don't shoot the messenger! The film, titled BUMPED, comes from veteran producer Bridget Johnson and will be under "McG protege" (seriously?) Anna Mastro from a script by Lizzy Weiss and will, of course, center on five twenty-somethings who would never associate with each other in real life who become stranded at Chicago's O'Hare Airport when they're all bumped from a flight. Expect a Molly Ringwald cameo, at the very least. Hell, if they can get an Ally Sheedy cameo then my hat's off to them. They plan to shoot independently then take it to studios once it's done. However, shooting won't start until after the looming SAG strike situation is resolved.
Extra Tidbit:
Molly Ringwald originally wanted to play Ally Sheedy's character.

Yeah, The Breakfast Club is very cheesy at certain times. But Simple Minds were the shit in 1985. Well, pretty much now also since music generally sucks more today than Ginger Lynn did back then.
If "Don't You (Forget About Me)" is not in this remake, may the director die in phthisis. Wait... I got a better idea. Cancel the movie. |

Well, it's official. Hollywood no longer has anyone in it with an original thought or any imagination. When can we start getting ORIGINAL ideas instead of retreads of everything that has ever been done?? Is Hollywood really that devoid of talent now a days??? |

Sounds more like a copy off the "BClub"`s concept than a remake. |

Fire the idiot who decided this was a good idea.
I thought Halloween was the worst remake idea ever. I now stand corrected. |

Doesn't sound like a "remake" to me, just sounds like an asshole attempt to capitalize on the popularity of one of best teen movies ever made.
Hollywood: That annoying asshole you went to school with who started copying things the cooler kids were doing and claiming that they were their own original inventions. Stop being so... so...
Blah. |

HOW IS THIS A REMAKE?
I'm agreeing with bigred - I don't understand how this is even being called a remake. It's twentysomethings, it's in an airport...
From what I've read, calling this a remake of The Breakfast Club is like calling the Breakfast Club a remake of 12 Angry Men. |

REMAKE?
How is this a remake of THE BREAKFAST CLUB? Unless the characters and the setting are the same, then this is just a new movie with a plot similarity, which happens all the time in Hollywood. You might as well call this a remake of BEFORE SUNRISE and THE TERMINAL while you're at it. |

GOOD CALL DEADSHOT
I agree that the Breakfast Club is a way overrated movie and except for a few stand-out moments, sucks in comparison to Hughes' other works. DaForce nailed it on the head with
