I love the movie The Breakfast club and recently JC Penny started showing one of thier new commercials for back to school. In it they recreate scenes from the eighties John Hughes film "The Breakfast Club" but it's taken in the present. It's a really cool commercal. Here's the link for a video of it on my Multiply site:

It got me thinking how it would be cool to remake this movie, something like in this commercial perhaps. What do you all think of this commercial and do you think a remake of the movie is a cool idea or would you rather they not mess with a good thing?

I can't stand this commercial, MrsFairWells. It advertises to a target group that has no idea of the significance of the commercial because they weren't even alive when The Breakfast Club was made.

You would be surprised how many kids today know and have watched The Breakfast Club. Remember their parents grew up in that time and there are a lot out there who still watch the movie. I love this commercial and usually there's not many commercials these days that I will actually sit and watch...

I must say that the commercial surprised me.

And it is a cool commercial. I didn't mean to come off so harsh. I like the commercial, I was just surprised by who it targeted.

Yeah that commercial is pretty cool, but they will never be as good as the originals. I need to watch that movie again. It's been a long while since I've seen it. I miss the days when they still made good movies like that. Oh well...I guess I am just getting old...(sigh).

I agree, they will definitely never be as good as the original actors but this was pretty cool, non the less. They really don't make movies like they used to. I must be getting old too ;-P
