But R.I.P. if it's true.

Yeah seems so vague at this point. I'd really like to know if this true though...

D:

CNN seems to think he is dead... but CNN sucks cock so I still don't know what to believe

Hughes loss....I loved Uncle Buck.

Found out today his son runs the Hefty label. Wouldn't have thought this guy's kid was putting out Mondii and Solo Andata cds...

I guess that's Macaulay Culkin's career buried also, lol.

But yeah, sad loss. Always loved Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

The Breakfast Club is a classic. Legend.

What's with all the press saying he did all those movies? Dumb journalism not knowing the difference between writing, producing and directing...

p-glass there's no need to go hunting for dark clouds in a RIP thread, this one is on the house

Further to this, it's very obvious what kind of influence Hughes had. Whether writing, directing or producing he put a very distinct mark on those movies. So the crediting is appropriate

i can't believe no-one has

yet

yeah let's not fill this thread with hate, good point.

this saddens me. All these 80's icons. My youth is dieing

Wait, so he's dead?

as long as tiffany, molly ringwald and ally sheedy remain alive and fuckable (incl. MILFy), my 80s sweatpants boner shall remain strong and proud as a cyan/magenta short-sleeved hawaiian shirt.

hehe, sweatpants boner

My autumn wear

Sixteen CandlesThe Breakfast Club

Weird Science

Ferris Bueller's Day Off

The man defined a generation.

Weird Science was a fucking classic alright!

if someone dies and they haven't done anything good since 10 years is it still sad? i suppose we mourn old people and they don't do anything for the last 20 yeas of their lives. its odd mourning these people seeing as we don't know them.
