Ferris Bueller to have no more days off, ever (RA and Jackie both hate him)

I didn't like Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Ferris bugged me - too smug, I think. I know people love it, but to me it was no Breakfast Club.
I like Matthew Broderick, Sally. In fact, I like him alot. I've always thought he seemed like a stage actor more than a movie actor, though. He was brilliant in Brighton Beach Memoirs, Biloxi Blues, The Music Man, and also The Producers.
I'm not much on him as an actor, actually, but I don't hate the person, just the characters or roles that he chooses. In the same way that I don't really love John Cusack all that much, but I love his movies so much I just want to squeeeee!
For a minute, I thought you meant Earth Girls Are Easy, and I was going to say, that wasn't SJP, that was Gina Davis. Anyhow...That one had a surprisingly hunky Jeff Goldbloom in it.
By the way, RA's link leads to the Cyndi Lauper song, not the movie of Girls Just Want to Have Fun.Here's the movie link:

Sarah weighs in: Matthew Broderick is still cute and charming. Jeff Goldblum was indeed surprisingly hot in Earth Girls are Easy. I think it was the lighting. Sarah Jessica Parker was cute and charming when younger (Girls Just Want to Have Fun, LA Story) but now she is pointy and annoying. Sarah weighs out.
Ooo, good call Sarah. I had forgotten about LA Story. That was such a cute film. I miss the days when Steve Martin was funny.
I have gotten Brogerick & Cusak mixed up SINCE my Breakfast Club days. (And Breakfast Club beats all the other '80s teen angst movies to hell!)I find SJP's face interesting.
Glory! That's the movie I was trying to remember. All RA listed up there was Biloxi Blues and that didn't sound right.
Yes, he was great in that wasn't he?

Did Mindy mention John Cusack? I love him. Unfortunately, Zu hates him (except for Martian Child), so I rarely watch all the great movies he's been in -- The Grifters, High Fidelity, Grosse Point Blank -- even though I have them.
Re 28: I listed what, now? That was Heidi listing all his movies in post 13. Do I sound like I'm from the south? Do I drink sweet tea and play kick ball? Do I squee?No, I do not.
I have never, ever squeed. That I know of, anyway. Not that there's anything wrong with that behavior.
Hey! What is up w/these damn ads???? The ones on the side I could handle, but these are hijacking the whole window! WTF, GR???

Sweeter sent me this link with the addendum: "best headline of the day" and I agree.
