I just love this movie. I think for INTPs it's almost like a peek under the hood. The interplay between the various characters in many ways reminds me of the internal struggles we face. The various characters could almost represent the various functions we contain, both are primaries and our shadows. It just find it so poignant.

Anybody else?

Oh, and I love the theme song: YouTube- Don't You Forget About Me - Simple Minds (1985) / Music Video

Love it:) A college movie I actually can stand. Great 80s vibe in that movie!

Oh, and yeah, the movie presents the different college stereotypes in a great way.. and it ends up showing how similar they really are...in true hollywood fashion, hehe

I'd seen the movie twice, but didn't know it was called breakfast club, so when people would ask if I'd seen it, I'd say no and they'd be shocked.

Then I finally watched it with someone because they were like "YOU HAVE TO SEE IT" and was like, oh, I have seen this. This is breakfast club? Lol!

Random, but semi relevant story. haha.

I had always heard about this movie and I finally saw that it was on on the TV guide and figured "Oh, I guess I should finally watch this"

I wasn't exactly sure what it was going to be about before watching and so I tried to prepare myself for anything.

I remember I thought it was weird because at first I thought the whole movie was going to be about how they would escape, but it turned out to be way deeper than that.

putting that aside, it was a great movie and I can see why it is so acclaimed and also perhaps nostalgic

never really thought about it portraying INTPs functions, but then again I didn't know about the MBTI when I watched it and I've never thought about this movie that much ever since I discovered the MBTI, so yea, hmmmmm...

One last thing I can say about this movie is that........it certainly leaves you wondering....

I like how the characters grow from their forced association and break out of some of their preconceived notions both about themselves and their peers.

everyone who's ever watched this movie ever, when asked which character they relate to most, will say "the weird girl" (can't particularly remember her name at the moment, but yeah).

i love this movie a lot. i kinda feel like watching it again.

Behind you, kicking you in the ass
I remember seeing this movie in theaters :p

It was set in high school, not college just like most of Hughes' films. BC was the best of the lot. The 'wierd girl' went from best character to worst once she was "normalized".
