Rama’s SCREEN

Director McG’s friend and protege, Anna Mastro has signed on to direct what appears to be the modern version of the classic hit The Breakfast Club.
Remember that movie? It was only one of the most popular teen movies ever.. a proud product of the 80s, directed by the awesome John Hughes and it starred young Emilio Estevez (Before he became Billy the Kid in Young Guns), Anthony Michael Hall (who also starred in Sixteen Candles, and Weird Science), and the redhead Molly Ringwald whose last gigs include one of the episodes of TV series Medium.

Anna Mastro’s film project is called BUMPED. And according to Hollywoodreporter, here is what makes it similar to the film about different teenagers stuck in a detention.

“A comedy-drama revolving around five twentysomethings — including a corporate go-getter, a musician and a flirt — who normally wouldn’t be friends but who get to know one another when they’re bumped from a flight and wind up stranded at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport.”

So that’s why they call it a modern version of The Breakfast Club.
Instead of a classroom, they’re stuck at an airport…
Maybe Tom Hanks should make a cameo and reprise his role from The Terminal, that would be interesting.
Some movies just don’t need to be remade and I think this is one of those.
But what do you think?
Do we need a ‘modern day version’ of The Breakfast Club?
