For ones who don't know The Brat pack was the name of a group of young actors and actresses in the 80's. They are Emilio Estevez,Anthony Michael Hall,Rob Lowe, Andrew McCarthy, Demi Moore, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, And Ally Sheedy.I guess I have a tie. I had the biggest crush on Andrew McCarthy but I saw more of Rob Lowe's work.

Well when you post a question you post a question......I think as an over all I'd have to say Emilio Estevez, but also like Andres McCarthy. Demi went over the top and Rob, he's just such a sweetie...Sorry, can't choose...the question is just too hard!

I was in love with Rob Lowe (He was hot back then!) but he wasn't the best actor of the gang. I think Judd Nelson probably was the best but I also like Andrew McCarthy.

Final answer...Rob Lowe was my favorite but I think Judd Nelson probably was the most talented of the group.

That was actually TOUGH for me to answer. lol.

Would you believe I was just thinking of starting a discussion on the Brat Pack with a slightly different take on it. I was already over thirty when these stars first became so popular but my daughter was crazy over some of them, especially Rob Lowe. I remember saying then he was a "cute kid" but some years later, after the brat pack had disbanded I came to appreciate him more. It's probably surprising to some people how well a few of these actors have done in later years. Picking a favorite isn't easy but I currently watch Anthony Michael Hall and Robe Lowe on their respective TV shows and think they've gotten so much better with age! Demi Moore is amazing, she looks the same now as she did when she was in About Last Night.

I haven't seen Anthony or Rob's new shows. When I started this post I was thinking of their work in the 80's.

Several of these actors and actresses have gone on to be very big stars. My favorite is Anthony Michael Hall, who is great on The Dead Zone that I have watched for many years. I have viewed Rob Lowe on Brothers and Sisters, but prefer to watch his brother act instead.

Woo. Rob Lowe's brother is an actor? What is his name?What is he in?

I think I would have to pick Molly Ringwald. My cousin used to have such a crush on Rob Lowe it was crazy.

I don't know who was my favorite. I pretty much liked them all. I have watched breakfast club so many times. i bought it on dvd also. and any time it is on tv i watch it. i think a few have done well. Rob Lowe and Demi Moore have kept steady. Anthony Michael hall made a comeback with the dead zone. I think Molly Ringwald was probably my favorite at the time. I liked 16 candles.

I was not into them so I can't give a response to this question. However you seem to have enjoyed them along with others so thumbs up to you my friend.

Rob Lowe, Molly Ringwald, Demi Moore and Ally Sheedy.
Not necessarily in that order.

I can't remember who Anthony Michael Hall is. The name is familiar but I can't place him. Was he the kid in Sixteen Candles??

I don't know who Andrew McCarthy is either.


myLot reputation of 97/100. sarahruthbeth22 (6976)   ranked 2 out of 6,831 in watching movies  10 months ago

Anthony was in Sixteen Candles and Breakfast Club.Andrew was the male lead in Pretty In Pink.

I really enjoyed Emilio Estevez. My husband and i are still always watching his old movies when he was a lot younger. I also like Molly Ringwald. The whole brat pack is legendary i think!

Well, I didn't care about him when he was a Brat Pack actor, but later on, I really began to appreciate Rob Lowe. I think he's very talented and has become less underrated lately. But, back in the 80's, to me the only Brat Pack movie I watched was The Breakfast Club, which he wasn't in.


myLot reputation of 97/100. sarahruthbeth22 (6976)   ranked 2 out of 6,831 in watching movies  10 months ago

If you liked The Breakfast Club, try St Elmo's Fire. Rob is in this one.I liked his work in About Last Night.
