As for the whole "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" thing.
When it came out in '86 I was working full time while also carrying a full university class load. For one of my very few nights out that YEAR a friend took me to see FBDO. As portrayed in the movie Bueller's care-free "all about me" attitude, just made me sick. The disrespect he showed to his "friends" and family was, for me, not the least bit entertaining. In an era where I was up to my ears in responsibility and working my ass off for a better tomorrow the entire tone of this movie just sent me over the top. It's the last, hell it's the only, movie I ever walked out of.
Your mileage may vary, but I just wanted to explain my point of view on this movie..
