John Hughes: Dead at 59

[Skiman]

(Don't You) Forget About Me.....

We will never forget you Mr. Hughes.....sad day indeed. His movies were such a HUGE part of my jr high/high school years....with The Breakfast Club being my favorite. I had a lot of good laughs from those movies....Long Duck Dong....getting high and dancing in the library....good times, good times.

Ferris: [to the Cameron] "Cameron, how many miles did you say the car had?"
Ferris: [to the audience] "Here's where Cameron goes berserk."

Bethany: McHenry is pretty far from Jersey, might I ask what brings you guys to Illinois?
Jay: Some named John Hughes.
Bethany: "16 Candles" John Hughes?

You'll be missed John.

So sad

Not a Hughes movie I didnt like. He was a machine in the 80's

RIP!

Although I didn't get to grow up as a teen in the 80's, Hughes' films still have an impact on my life when I first got to watch them. Looking at his IMDB page, I had no idea that a good portion of his films are in my DVD collection!
R.I.P. Mr. Hughes.

Unbelievable story, sometimes just the little things help out others so much, this world really is about giving and not expecting anything back in return. That is the true gift!!!
