The cast of The Breakfast Club is back together — 40 years after that fateful detention day.

Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy, Judd Nelson, Anthony Michael Hall and Emilio Estevez reunited on April 12 during a panel at C2E2, a pop culture convention in Chicago, to reminisce with fans over John Hughes's 1985 coming-of-age film. The panel was moderated by Josh Horowitz.

"I feel very emotional and moved to have us all together," said Ringwald, who played the film's iconic high school "princess" Claire Standish.

Oh gawd, probably one of the worst movies of the 80's.

Have fun and flame away, its saturday.

Oh gawd, probably one of the worst movies of the 80's.

You obviously were not a teen in the '80's. Or...if you were, you were a dumb jock.

Meh. Mid. I could go the rest of my life and never see it again - glad they’re all still above ground, though

[Jane Long]

At least post the recent pic, Biff!

Lotta hair dye in this group...except for guy on the right ... Judd Nelson looks like a skinny Ted Cruz ...

That’s cold, mon frere

Sadly Molly Ringwald turned into a complete loser.

A family favorite, yet widely unknown, movie with Judd Nelson, Kevin Costner, et. al. is Fandango.

The soundtrack and scenes are fabulous.

Yer talkin’ a whole lotta “widely unknown” here-—

[Clutch Martin]

I watched half of it (maybe)... and I’m generation Jones with a thing for gingers....

She drank the lefty kool aid.

I've been wondering how Judd Nelson was doing. He made one very good movie, (from the hip) and basically fell off the planet after that.

[Larry Lucido]

I liked Anthony Michael Hall best in Vacation.

From the picture, time appears to have been kindest to Emilio Estevez.

[Secret Agent Man]

They were fun movies at the time. I can’t watch most of them anymore. We’re well beyond that era of filmmaking and stories of that type, now.

Ferris Buellers Day Off, Real Genius, those are about the only 2 I can get through now. And its a push.

[Larry Lucido]

I liked Emilio Estevez best in Loaded Weapon.

[Flavious_Maximus]

She talks about how she thinks the character Clair (that she portrayed) would have gone on to become a lesbian after divorcing numerous times.

Only a filthy skank liberal would think that.

Ringwald actually lived in France for a number of years. She should have stayed there. /spit

What? It was great. My school even implemented Saturday detention for a few Saturdays. 80’s were the best times of America’s history.

[katykelly]

Didn’t she become a “ protege “ of Warren Beatty ?

[Jeff Chandler]

Leave it to John Hughes to convince America’s deluded teens that his movies have some deeper meaning.

[Jet Jaguar]

Argeed with your statement.
