I wanna die

Watch this video with these three songs in order: Goodnight Goodnight, Bandages, and You Owe Me An IOU all by Hot Hot Heat

[Jah044445]

I'm in high school, and I don't really have any "friends." I mean, I do, but I can't ever really tell them anything serious without them calling me a pussy.

John Hughes' movies provide me with the closure I was lacking, and reassure me that I am in fact a normal kid. It's also the romance in his movies that inspire me to do things like leaving a rose at a girl's doorstep. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like my peers today appreciate things like that either.

Anyway, thank you, and rest in peace.

[somegreens]

The Films of John Hughes represent a more entertaining and innocent time in american history.

[GrabbinSomeHAX]

weird science woman= so fucking hot

[wwebatmanmaniac]

@barringer82 I love you man. Thanks for this!

[themetalman3]

anyone who can make a steller tribute to David LYnch (who is way off the walls and freaky,) and then can come around and make an awesome heartfelt tribut to John Hughes....well....You're like a hero.

[XWiseXGuy]

well... I'll just say it

Ferris Bueller's a dick

[SuperBadgurl9]

best director ever john hughes R.I.P. always in my heart...

[juan21ification1]

does any body know the name of this movie,where a teen boy puts his pants in the microwave to dry for a little bit then takes off to shool where he then fights this bully

[barringer82]

@juan21ification1 3 o'clock high

[fowfan329]

Brilliant! As a huge John Hughes fan, I highly approve!

[darkprose]

With your videos, I give them a thumbs up and favorite almost immediately, because I know they are going to be excellent. And they are.

[TheMeganWitt]

what a great vid! fantastic job!

[bboots100]

John Hughes understood the middle class and suburban existence and depicted it in film as few directors ever had. Film tends to dismiss the working class as uninteresting, where Hughes knew that every aspect of the human struggle existed in their homes and could be shown with humour and heart.

[clintrock]

it must have taken a thousand years, or hours, but good job and great use of song and film.

[YOUrmypal68]

I am reading a book titled "You Couldn't Ignore Me If You Tried" which was a quote from The Breakfast Club by Judd Nelson - The Brat Pack, John Hughes and Their Impact On A Generation by Susannah Gora...it brings me back to my teen years in the '80s

[fuel]

Very Nice Montage.

[treadley]

excellent grouping of all these great movies! you must be a professional, eh?

[jemason3]

very well done. I have seen just about all of john hughes directed as well as written films and there is noone to compare to the way he touch the human spirt. I miss John Hughes and John Candy rip thanks for the laughter....

[virgofemme5]

John Hughes films are so amazing!! So glad I was an 80's baby. Excellent video!

[OurGangFan]

The music in the middle of the video would go great in a tribute to Dead Poets Society!

[threegone]

really glad for all the Uncle Buck appreciation.

[TheNEWfilmfanatic99]

They should have played this at the oscar tribute.

[Howedownit]

John Hughes made good as teenager movies rip

[1981Moonwalker]

He is the only director that's been able to captured the true feeling and sent it true the screen so that we the audience have feelt it to.

You will not be forgotten John Hughes

[tofutoph]

They did a nice tribute for him at the oscars. RIP John!

[TheWittyBanana]

I still can't believe he died! I was waiting for a comeback. He was a genius.

[eggman913]

Revisting - great job

[KAYLAatTHEdisco]

Man, he directed all the best movies.

RIP

[bridgmon007]

I agree!!!

[headintheclouds23]

Wonderful tribute to an amazing director! He was amazing.

[Danielreichel]

Great job, mr barringer.

what´s the name of the music in the beggining of the video? It´s the same when ferris run to his house, one of the greats scenes ever

tks

[jaxl2009]

RIP John Hughes. You were a genius.

[badturkali]

home alone would be tears for me this year

[HHGFHJGFHJGFJTYFJDGY]

Planes Trains and Automobiles is my favourite comedy film ever

[jennadyann]

great job compiling all of these greats together...seamless....He will be missed ever so much...very understanding and compassionate heart...we love ya John!

[LittlexLaurax]

what are all of these movies called? i only know Ferris Bueller's Day of and The Breakfast club, what are the rest?

[RocketSwan]

-Sixteen Candles

-Curly Sue

-She's Having a Baby

-Uncle Buck

-Weird Science

-Planes, Trains and Automobiles

[popdisastertour]

God, I wish Hughes had made one last teen film before he passed. He would have revived the entire genre from its mindlessness to something deep and real. The closest high school films to his since he stopped have been Mean Girls and Drillbit Taylor(+ he wrote the original story for Drillbit), and even those don't touch masterpieces like Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I'm 15 and have been loving his films since I watched them as a little kid (my big sister loves his movies). Amazing video, though.

[richardjames111]

Great, great video mate!!!! The man himself would be proud of it!! :)

[77bogart]

Nice. But where's Ducky? No PIP clips?

[barringer82]

see title

[77bogart]

ahhh fair enough. I stand corrected. Awesome vid

[nerdtalk326]

@77bogart Howard Deutch directed Pretty in Pink.

[77bogart]

@nerdtalk326 Thanks, but I stood corrected nearly a year ago. It was pointed out by barringer. Chow

[wildsmiley]

@77bogart yeah, Pretty In Pink wasn't directed by Hughes, and neither was Some Kind of Wonderful.

This video does feel oddly incomplete without 'em though. I mean, Pretty In Pink is my favorite John Hughes movie (he wrote and produced it).

[wildsmiley]

@77bogart Pretty in Pink is my favorite film of Hughes, but he didn't DIRECT it, Howard Deutch did.

[77bogart]

@wildsmiley I think someone corrected me on that with a post on here from several months back, but thanks.

[red2106]

Love it !!!

[ltlion64]

That was awesome great job!

[music4reality]

LEGEND

[fidomax]

kick ass you got there most important parts of hughes magic - fun, sentimentality and teenage rocknroll :P cheers dude that was really true to Hughes, and yeah i was still there at the end ;) just like when i was watching ferris first time around;)

[WilliamLonghini]

Great video. immediate add to my favorites.

[midnightpanthora]

Wow what a great complimation of John hugh's films. I loved this vid it was awesome.

[stretchyhulk]

Well done.

[Muirmaiden]

I still can't believe he's gone - what a phenomenal filmmaker! The man was a genius, may he RIP.

[vwlssknght]

Does anyone recall which Hughes' film featured the slow, instrumental music in the middle of this montage?

[Ynnadodgers]

It was featured in the museum scene of Ferris Bueller. The song is the instrumental version of 'Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want' by the Smiths.

[AndiNeverSlice]

Jesus, 8 minutes of this?

[DorfusChickenDunkin]

This is a wonderful montage, very well cut together and the songs were brilliant choices. As well as highlighting Hughes work it also reminded me how BRILLIANT John Candy was, even small glimpses remind me how wonderful the man was. You even managed to make 'She's Having a Baby' look interesting (Of all of Hughes contributions both in directing, writing etc it's my least favourite).

[golddragon1967]

Chka-chk-a. You touched our hearts and opened our minds. For the laughter, tears, hope and heart-ache you left the world perhaps a little better than you found it. Thank you John. RIP

[dorisfilms]

Fantastic cut!

[Facialcream13]

you forgot weird science and some kind of wonderful. were did footloose come from

[barringer82]

you're way way off -- on all counts.

[Midnightmuse55]

@Facialcream13 -- that's not footloose, that is "she's having a baby"; a semi autobiographical movie Hughes wrote and directed. Kevin Bacon starred in many movies in the 80's. Hughes did not direct "some kind of wonderful", he wrote the screen play. I counted several "weird science" scenes, including the iconic ending epilogue wink by Lisa.

[DorfusChickenDunkin]

If you've watched the video, Weird Science is featured, Some Kind of Wonderful was written but not directed by Hughes (the montage is of his directed movies) and Hughes and Footloose aren't connected.

[PamBerry89]

there was no footloose, kevin bacon was in she's having a baby.

[lallafralify]

@Facialcream13 Weird Science is in there. John Hughes wrote Some Kind of Wonderful, he didn't direct it. The scenes that have Kevin Bacon are from She's Having a Baby

[wildsmiley]

@Facialcream13 Weird Science was in there. Some Kind of Wonderful was written & produced by John, not directed. The clips in this video that have Kevin Bacon in them are from the film She's Having a Baby.

[ZacO8965]

Terrific Tribute. John Hughes you made some of cinema's most beloved films and you will always be praised and recognized as one of the greatest directors of all time. RIP

[silentstorm9]

Love the montage John Hughes was an amazing director.

[bonsaijen]

This is my childhood on screen here. The man could certainly do teenage angst. I think my biggest regret in life will not being able to date Ferris.

[DorfusChickenDunkin]

Just a day off like Ferris would have suited me!

[LogicHead]

These are his eight directorial movies. He was an even more prolific (and in my view, exceptional) writer also.

'Driving Me Crazy' with Ed O'Neill remains, to this day, the only movie which I can watch multiple times and be in stitches - sometimes for the whole movie but, if not, at different points.

Thanks also for the tribute.

All the best.

R.I.P.

[RetroGirl85]

god bless john hughes, he was my favorite director of all time, im so sad he is gone :(

[tehkao]

Kevin Bacon was in a John Hughes movie??

[TIAN392257]

He was in She's Having a Baby, made a cameo in Planes, Trains & Automobiles.

[fabiobit]

this is great... I am feeling kinda emotional here... I grew up watching these movies.... very very good tribute!

[peter455sd]

-Great vid,very tasteful.

[hswami74]

As a budding filmaker myself.. thank you John Hughes for introducing me to the art of making good movies... with a youthful and soulful vibe :-) R.I.P

[SkullAndDragon]

Man, I was really hoping for the She-bow bow song somewhere in there.

[KryptoniteCondom93]

the only filmmaker to truly understand his audience i make an honest connection to his movies and he helped make the person i am today, thank you for the memories John Hughes RIP

[Ostrogorsky]

I can honestly say that I am a better person because of Mr. Hughes movies. They don't make them like they used too. Good night Mr. Hughes and thank you for the memories.

[Cobainpunk74]

I'm so saddened he died. :(

RIP

[LlamaSensei]

I think I speak for a lot of us when I say that no one will ever understand me the way John Hughes did. Rest in peace, man. We won't forget about you.

(Sorry, don't mean to join the overly-sentimental cliche. This is a sick video.)

[80stimeagain]

John Hughes was a director of some great classic 80s movies. I grew up with his movies. But, he was also mostly the writer of some good movies i remember like : Mr. Mom, Some Kind of Wonderful and Home Alone just to name a few. He made a lot of films involving kids or teenagers when i was growing up.

Nice video tribute. :))

[thejobloshow]

I was tearing up. I always thought Hughes would make a comeback - guys like us who grew up on his work would make that happen... I will never forget.

[LlamaSensei]

I totally thought the same thing. It's devastating.

[redmr2na]

RIWDP (Rest In Well Deserved Peace) Mr. Hughes. You are and always will be one of the greats. You deserve a star on the Hollywood walk of fame, because without you, some of those stars wouldn't be there.

[chloeelizabethmarie]

You did such a great job in putting this all together, it was nice to watch it & remember great movies Thanks :)

[MoveOnDotOrgg]

Just okay - what about VACATION???!!  HOME ALONE?? MR MOM??? This vid is only so-so and far from complete.

[bjslaca]

Dude. DIRECTED by John Hughes. Emphasis on DIRECTED.

[MoveOnDotOrgg]

bjslaca: dude, mind your OWN business, emphasis on your OWN. This vid is full of holes. Better ones out there.

[chloeelizabethmarie]

Move On Dot Orgg, I got your reply to my comment. I still enjoyed this piece. I liked the movies that are in this montage even if those movies are missing from this tribute. It is well put together, I like how it flows. These movies put a smile on my face.

[Jeebus]

The vid is about the films he directed.

He didn't direct those you mentioned. He wrote them.

[jedimasterobi1]

R.I.P.

[YeOldePat]

Breakfast Club is excelent. Well, the others too, but this is my favorite.

[rehabpictures]

This is such a beautiful well selected montage to a wonderful filmmaker. A work of art in it's own right. Well done.

[byrdi68]

Wow this is great!!!

[ruthanabi]

great job editing!

[theStiggler]

Wow, he defined my generation. Thank you for putting this together. Really. Thank you. I guess this means we all have to become adults now :(.

[lavideomania]

Time to start teaching the next generation all of the amazing things we were given, that have somehow been lost these past few years.

On this high tech whirlwind we've been too content to let all the beauty in the world get too easily lost.

John Hughes helped make the '80s for me. There was a beauty and sensitivity to humanity that seems out of fashion these days. But for those of us who remember, it will always be a part of our soul.

[SatiricalTruth]

Brilliant video of the film creations of John Hughes. Great job. RIP

[o2theh]

John Hughes was one of my favorite directors of all time its so sad to see him go :(

[redmr2na]

A moment of silence please for one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. John Hughes like many of you have said defined a generation. He was not only a filmmaker, director, screenplay writer, but also a pop culture icon in his own right. Thank you John for making us live, Love, belong, and feel. All current filmmakers owe a little to John. His movies always had good storylines, fab music and values, and alway taught us something, unlike many of todays current movies.

[7villarreal]

why is everyone dieing?

[doomslayer133]

Because they just do

[cacisa2j]

This rocks!!

[TC5Muzik]

What a great montage from memorable moments from the body of work of John Hughes. His movies always had a finger on the pulse of an interesting rite of passage. Great characters, great stories and he leaves us with a wonderful body of work that everyone can continue to enjoy for many years to come. R.I.P. John Hughes and thank you for your vision....

[MoiDeCoentro]

His directed movies were so nice, wonder why he stopped directing...

[theofficefan234]

You must have worked your but off on this great job I'm favoriting this

[nedswebjunk]

Dude!

Even more amazing than the fact that this compilation was posted several months before Mr. Hughes' untimely death is the sheer, and obvious, love with which you created it!

Thanks for such a beautiful tribute to a man who truly understood the youthful heart, and never lost touch with his own....

[2bigboobs01]

oh my God this tribute made me cry- thanx for posting this. I may be 22 years old but as i was little his movies like home alone and christmas vaction was what I grew up with and loving, inspired me to write n'direct movies(alone w/his others- the breakfast club, just one of the guys, 16 candles,etc). he's is an icon-he made the 80's n 90's (his movies) its sad that now when i watch his movies it'll be emotional. He lives on. Thanx John 4 helpin me live w/ me through highschool.

[madams513]

Best Movies of our generation. RIP

[dave5tesb]

Great clips with the BEST soundtrack!!!

Ultimate John Hughes Tribute

Made me cry. Feel like my childhood is dying!

[XanderLogan]

No John Candy "my kids like me" speech or giant pancakes- for shame

Still want to watche them all now!

[dshemia19]

RIP !

[musicwitch2006]

I really enjoyed that. John would have too. R$

[osubux1]

What is that song in the middle of the clips... the real slow one where all the sad scenes are.

[aburrows21]

It sounds like an instrumental version of The Smiths, "Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want".

[jrock714]

The slow song is a cover of The Smiths's, "Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want". It was also played in "Pretty In Pink" when Ducky loses Andy and is currently in "500 Days of Summer".

[nyhcara]

R.I.P Goonieman.

[bigun89]

Rest in peace

[ladyrhiannon]

Wonderful tribute, excellent editing! Bravo!!!

[recoveringdj]

Good stuff, you really captured the essence of a great man

[PageMonster]

My adolescence officially died yesterday, at 41. Rest in Peace, John.

[IrelandCaptured]

feel the same .. we used to come into school quoting lines from his movies. I'd say teachers and high-schools hated him cause everyone came to class thinking they were Ferris or John Bender :)

RIP ..

[SoylentGreenISHUNGRY]

Rest in peace, Mr. Hughes.

[ChocolatePope17]

There goes the 80's...

[tvlover222]

RIP John, your a legend!

[Raevyn1972]

Simply brilliant. John Hughes defined a generation (MY generation) and this is the greatest tribute I've seen in a long time. Kudos to its creator :)

[coyebell]

[80musicfan]

Brillant work barringer82! Thanks for the memories!

[Mittens2201ca]

You'll never see it again... Hughes has died...

[teelittle369]

That was my whole point in coming to look for tributes Captain Obvious

[Mittens2201ca]

That was a really hurtful thing to say... :(

[ZABRISKIEPOINTER]

Paul this Tribute is going to go through the roof now, I sent it around and I am sure everyone else did, they would probably use this on tributes on the news sites

[suziestew]

great flick...

the best!!!

xxx

[prejusapatrick]

Brilliant!

[blondeheroine]

This is such a great tribute. The best I've found.

[SeijiMutoEX]

Trains Planes & Automobiles is my favorite and most funny Hughes film. Love Sixteen candles!

But one people should see is "Some Kind of Wonderful."

[Agentx72]

RIP John Hughes, and thanks for sharing this....

[Rhezoloution]

THANKS!

[Rhezoloution]

release the embedding dude!

[barringer82]

Wow, when did John Hughes die? I never heard of his death. I love his movies.

[MissAhWissAh]

RIP John Hughes. The world has lost a great talent. :-(

[baysidefriend]

Wow

[infrafan]

I wanted to live in Shermer, Illinois. John made the 80's more awesome. Thank you.

[U2Mz]

LOL...It's really Northbrook, IL

It was pretty darn boring so we made our fun.

[infrafan]

LOL. I know it doesn't exist, but then again, it does.

[MediaWire]

Great tribute video to John Hughes. And it's interesting it wasn't just made.  Hughes' best movie to me will be Uncle Buck and second is Ferris Bueller.

[RoboDouche]

It's official. Watching this just reduced me to tears.

[RoboDouche]

I will never forget you John. I love you.

[BigRedOfficeChair]

RIP

[verkenderkraftwerk2]

RIP John Hughes...I had to check this out right after I heard, Paul.

[pogmothein]

A huge piece of my youth has died along with John. May he rest in peace.

[tenn1983]

R.I.P. John i guess Molly Ringwald's career will die with you...oh wait nevermind

[ZABRISKIEPOINTER]

it'a shame that "Curly Sue" will be the last film he directed!

[mikeknight4u]

Awesome tribute man. Brings back fond memories. RIP John. Long live the 80's.

[thegrap1]

[chel325]

Kudos on the tribute. I loved all the films you featured and have watched them endless times since I was a teen. May John Hughes rest in peace.

[chibisabby]

Indeed, a great light has gone out.

[TheSkadoosh1]

A great tribute for a great director. He will forever and always be missed greatly.

[ewafish]

nice tribute...thanks. RIP John...

[Tacom4ster]

RIP John, also he never made any film in the 90s

NEVER MADE ANYTHING IN THE 90s

[chibisabby]

Curly Sue?
