In Part 2 of our discussion of The Breakfast Club, we reveal our final casting choices, talk about how the stereotypes and cliques could be refreshed for today’s world, ponder ‘Punishment by Jefferson Starship’, and what detention and/or in school suspension is like in today’s high schools. Finally, we wonder whether there has been another group of young actors and actresses quite like the Brat Pack in the 80’s, and reveal which of the Breakfast Club characters we were like as young’uns, and now.
