I mean what a guy, he could do just about anything and not get caught. Add to that a hot girlfriend and a best friend with a ferrari he really is some guy. I amazed he didnt go onto bigger things with the amazing show he put on at the parade.

He is great and it is a fantastic movie.It was on earlier on and it was as good as ever.

madrab · 03-01-2010 9:38am

And he killed 2 women in ireland...

krudler · 03-01-2010 1:31pm

Its one of those movies that the older you get the harder it is to like, when i was a teenager Ferris was cool, now hes an annoying little shyte who blackmails people into doing what he wants with no regard for the consequences, plus hes an asshole

I'll think you'll find that it is, in fact, Principal Rooney who is the asshole

Exar Khun · 03-01-2010 1:48pm

Annoying and just to reiterate he killed two women in Ireland.

PrettyBoy · 03-01-2010 3:39pm

Hadn't seen it in a good while but watched it last night. Enjoyable film, though very far fetched, but still very good in some parts.

The comments were just innapropriate, inconsiderate and pointless. We're having a light hearted discussion about Ferris Bueller, a fictional character played by Matthew Broderick, but you still feel compelled to bring up a tragedy that happened over 20 years ago. Why?

Matthew Broderick's finest moment of his career

The films and performances he went on to make etc were shocking

Watched a xmas film he did with danny de vito the other week called Decks The Halls - it was unbelievably bad and broderick was just wooden in it - awful awful stuff indeed.

Still he was brilliant in FB's and that cant be taken away from him.

DonkeyStyle \o/ · 03-01-2010 7:52pm

The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, dickheads. They all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude.

1st time i had seen it in a while, actully, it was the second time in total i had seen it, still brillant and glad i stayed up for it

the way him and his best mate plays the principle is a classic, laughed most of the way through it, even his sister comes round to his defence eventually

Glory is his best movie by far, and he was the voice of the older Simba in The Lion King, an 80s teen classic, the last great Disney movie and one of the best war movies ever is hardly a bad career, stuff like The Producers,Election, The Cable Guy (massively underrated) and Biloxi Blues are also worth noting

Damn right it is, one of my favourite movies, and its got one of the most beautiful posters ever, its got rocketpacks, gangsters, fbi agents, howard hughes, a 30s setting, Timothy Dalton and Nazis, whats not to like

Richard Dower · 03-01-2010 8:50pm

^ the Wiki page has alot of interesting info on the movie, Disney f*cked it up!....they only wanted the title, to sell bloody toys!

It's a great little retro movie, it's a kids flick but very enjoyable.

krudler · 03-01-2010 8:57pm

Its also everything that Sky Captain was trying too hard to be, and not a bit of cgi in sight

i think he was terribly miscast in this movie though although it turned out good despite the fact

L31mr0d · 03-01-2010 9:03pm

bow bow... chik... chik-a-chika ahhhhhh.. ohhh yeaaah!

If you've watched Ferris Buellers Day off you should definitely watch "Better off Dead" which came out before it. It's as good, if not better than FBDO.

It gets referenced in popular media almost as much as Ferris Bueller's day off yet it still surprises me how many people haven't seen it.

Guessing you haven't seen "Requiem for a Dream" then

Despite the fact he looks almost identical to the real Robert Gould Shaw, and is a distant relative of him? He was perfect for that role, a young upcoming army captain thrust into a command due to his parents contacts, its a great performance as well

Your problem is you. You want to spend a little more time dealing with yourself and less time complaining about others.

There's somebody you should talk to.
