Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, Weird Science Triple Dip? (1 Viewer)

[Aaron Silverman]

Thanks for the info!

Can't say that a missing random half of one line would prevent me from picking up a good special edition set. . .

 

[Matt M]

According to the website, they appear to be a repackaging of the existing discs.

Not to nitpick! As it's been a 100 years since I saw these, I may be wrong, but I have always remembered the line as being " Anything more than a handful, and you're risking a sprained THUMB" accompanied by AMH making a cupping gesture with his hands and wiggling his thumbs. In my youth, I'd used the line many times and it does make more sense this way!

 

[Chris Bergmann]

So the only new "extras" will be:

Brat Pack Collection CD
Collectible 3-Ring Binder Packaging

I guess the CD is a collection of the songs from the movies.

 

[Aaron_Brez]

Nope. It's "tongue". Seen the movie millions of times, and there's really no question.

 

[Paul Anthony]

I will purchase again if Hughes does a commentary for each film.

 

[Kelvin Lennon]

That's a shame. I enjoyed Hughes' commentary on Ferris Bueller, and I wish he would do then on some more of his films, especially The Breakfast Club, and Planes, Trains & Automobiles.

 

[Patrick.C]

The packaging is up at DVDanswers. I like the binder, but the art itself is craptastic. It also lists a music CD of "80's hits" but doesn't say if they're from the soundtracks or just random songs.

 

[Dave H]

I would be very surprised if this is true since they were just redone and look about as good as one could expect for their age/source, etc.

 

[Eric Emma]

I'm going preorder it for 27 bucks off Amazon.com because if I was to buy it now seperately it'd be like 47 dollars, it's a good deal for first time buyer but definately not worthy for people to double dip and certainly not triple dip.

 

[Matt Harrison]

About the weird science dialogue. It's thumb.

 

[Chris Parham]

I've always remembered the line as thumb but Aaron say's he's seen it a million times and that it is unquestionably tongue. I guess I'll have to buy it to check. My wife will understand.

 

[Nicholas Vargo]

Don't mean to resurrect this thread, but I thought you might find this interesting:

DVD Times - John Hughes High School Flashback Collection (R1) in August

The Breakfast Club has this


A true claasic

 

[Patrick.C]

That alone will make it worth the double dip (though I will probably wait until the Blu release). Too bad they couldn't get a few more members of the cast like Ringwald or Sheedy.

 

[Dave_P.]

Yep, this will be one of the rare commentaries I actually listen to.

 

[Andrew Radke]

Still no theatrical trailer for "Sixteen Candles" I see. Since "Breakfast Club" is my absolute favorite of the bunch, I'll definitely triple dip only to hear the commentary. I'll stick with my existing editions of the other two.

 

[Mark Edward Heuck]

I've seen both the long and the short trailer for SIXTEEN CANDLES, and they are riddled with music cues. I cannot say that I'm not upset at their omission from all the DVD releases of the movie, but I understand why.

 

[Bryan^H]

Great news. Breakfast Club commentary plus extras= Can't wait for these. Including my HD dvd of BC, this will be the 4th time I will buy it.

 

[Bryan^H]

Breakfast Club is the best. I'm just surprised that the ever elusive deleted scenes aren't included.....again! Apparently Hughes has over 40 minutes of extra scenes, two snippets of them can be found in the theatrical trailer. Oh well, still happy for the commentary.
