R.I.P., John Hughes.

<< < (2/2)

Spenser:
It saddens me to say that he will never direct a teen comedy for the current generation.
I'm a huge fan and have recently moved to a chicago suburb, so his movies connect to me on that level basic level as well.

Muppet King:
Everybody forgets about Vacation, Christmas Vacation, Weird Science, and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

He definitely was one of the greats.

SilentJ:
I forgot about all of those, save for Weird Science, and had to IMDb it to believe you.  I think a lot of people probably only knew as much about him as I do; that is, don't know he was a writer, and only knew of his directing career.  He wrote for all of those, but didn't direct any National Lampoon movies.  He also wrote the entire Home Alone series, the Beethoven series, Miracle on 34th Street, Baby's Day Out, The Great Outdoors, and Dennis the Menace.

De_El:
This made me really sad. I watched Pretty in Pink tonight in honor of his passing.

knives:
The 80s are now dead, long live the 80s.
