Despite Bender's rebellious image, he's very eloquent and well-read

Vinh Nguyen

5y↑236

He's in detention most of the time so I guess apart from all shenanigans seen in the movie, he's got nothing else better to do but read. Weed, for some people, allows for enhanced creativity and opens new perspectives on things. Bender is also one of those many cases where the educational system just flat out does not work for him. I don't for a second think any person can deny learning new things and discovering new ideas, we are naturally curious creatures after all. It's more of the "means" and the "hows" of it being presented to us that serves as a bottleneck currently.

Also deep down, rather sensitive and hurt, and shut out by society. I can relate to feeling like that.

Tropical Magic Bender was a totally working-class suburbanite. He tells Clara about what he doesn’t have, but at least lives in a house with a garage that can afford paint and his father can afford cigars and give him a carton of cigarettes for Christmas.

Easy to say that, but it does give him something to do, and it does get him out of his abusive household. I would also think it gives him a bit of pleasure to channel his apathy into "sticking it" to authority figures like Vernon. That, and he wasn't as much of a rebel as he pretended to be - the point that I believe John Hughes was trying to make.

There's something special about the way John Hughes wrote the teen dialogue in this film and the way the actors performed them. Its very authentic in the way the delivery and structure of dialogue is imperfect that makes it very natural. That's why the film is so relatable, timeless and such a classic.

John Bender describes Facebook almost 20 years before the website is created:"So its sorta social. Demented and sad, but social, right?"

Aimee Adesso

8y↑25

+gcHK47 WOW WHO KNEW THAT! John Bender was my favorite in this and I loved it! This movie was ahead of its time! John Hughes was a man ahead of his time and Bender had a point about the school but now 25 yrs later school is now a battleground and we have cameras and COPS running the school b/c the teachers can't touch the kids and that goes their parents too! WHAT HAPPENED TO JUST GOING TO SCHOOL and being a kid? Also whats even more sick is that now Schools have graveyards b/c of bullies! The teachers still DONT CARE they only care about getting paid and when did female teachers start becoming models? Most the kids cars now are way expensive and better than teachers cars and the teachers drive in older cars because they don't make much and most teachers getting arrested now for trying to act like something they aren't and high school still hasn't changed in the last 25 yrs and now kids are killing themselves b/c Bullying and STILL NO BODY CARES it was sort of like that back then but bullying was so bad like it is today!
Sad how the second generation doesn't given care and they have cell phones, computers, great cars, and its all showing off and making mommy daddy proud because they wanted to get into a great college and then screw it up in the end and they up in jail or worse out on the street! The only thing I can say about John Bender was the part in where he is talking about his dad and how his burnt cigars on his arm! HE WAS PISSED OFF and that would explain him acting out like he did!* Even the parents are just as bad! I would never want to be teacher in HIGH SCHOOL! NOT TODAY ANYTHING YOU DO OR SAY EVERYONE TALKS OR THEY FLIM IT! The second generation is so messed up now I hate to think what is happening in the next 25 yrs!

Bender is the kid in this movie who boldly holds up a mirror and forces the rest, like Claire for example, to recognize the often hypocritical and ironic aspects of their character. He is not only a rebel, but also a leader. He is, to me, without a doubt the most fearless character in this film.

I miss the 80s and 90s then in the early 1990s in 1993 they used CGI correctly for Jurassic Park to make the dinosaurs look REAL!** Just an example and 1990s had some good movies too! But the 1980s was a great time be a kid and everyone had privacy and nobody cared what you did! Now everything is all out in open!

Bender struck me as the most intelligent and mature kid in this movie --- he had very keen observations about other people and elocuted his feelings like an adult would --- once you get him away from his toxic family he would be a successful person in society

Dr Scalpers

I think he looked cause he knew Allison heard that, and she might feel like collateral damage from it- Andy making Benders invisibility some wholly negative thing. I've been in that same situation and felt that way so maybe I'm biased and seeing things too.

KaoticDude

You can see Bender was hurt when Andrew said if Bender disappeared it wouldn't make a difference. Possibly due to his abusive household where his father thinks little of him. Brian was my favorite character in this movie. I also think Bender made fun of Brian the most because I think he relates to Brian more than anyone else in detention.

onetime acct51

they are all locked into their own cells. that have their tradeoffs. bender is free because hes abused. Brian is easy to pick on and manipulate. the others have "succeeded" so he has to tread more intelligently to break them down because they can say sh** like nobody would notice if you dissappeared.

Man this movie is 30 yrs old already and its a classic too and this was high school back in the day and John Bender is the one I like and he actually had alot of points in this flick and I like the way he said I am cracking skulls, and he was angry at his dad and that explains why he pulled the fire alarm and he acted out b/c of his dad and how he told everyone how his father beat him! NO DAD WHAT ABOUT YOU! This movie was way ahead of its time this should be shown in every high school across the state! High School has changed now kids who get bullied end up dead by suicide or on social media, the teachers now look like supermodels and you can get away with more things in high School, everyone has computers, cell phones, i pod, police walking the hallways and cameras watching everyone's move! I miss the old days when you could come and go as you wanted now forget it! Now High School has graveyards and also in every town every state there is that one kid that everyone knows about, that laughs at and bullies to the point where they shoot up the school to make a point that one kid boy or girl who sits in class my himself or herself. Alone People should be nice to the weird kid in school! Knowning John Bender if he went to school now he would shoot up the entire high school just to make a point!

Bender was the one that burst everyone's bubble. He was a necessary evil. I by no means love or admire his character, but he was an important pivotal character. If he wasn't in the detention group or someone like him wasn't in the group, they would have just carried on being the same naive people. He was like this heavy dose of robitussin they all needed to freakin wake up. Because they all judged eachother and thought they were better than one another in some shape or form. Bender was like the devil of the group, but he was needed to push them forward i think.

If Al Pacino and Christian Bale had a baby, it would be Bender.
Anyone else agrees?

I personally feel that Emilio wasn't given the recognition which he truly deserved for his portrayal of "Andrew" in TBC ! Such an underrated actor.

The funny thing about the contrast between Claire and Brian is that you would think being smart would earn you more money, but given Claire's background it's all about social organization. You can even see it on their parents cars and how they dress.

I was watching this last night. and like good acting is meant to do, I wont lie it made me very emotional, that scene in particular where they are siting in a circle sorta and clark is saying what he done to get into detention, I have a strong attachment to the 80`s, and more so because I was`nt born until 88 so I never got to experience the 80`s as a kid sadly, but ya, these movies are special, if you also watch a 30+ year old movie then I`m sure you get me

Astronomical 1997

I’ve watched this movie MANY times, and I am only 22 now.

Hmmm. Fedora in the profile pic, you do seem like the sort of person who would say that.

Or the type of person who would lie on YouTube about saying it and about his fake friends’ fake reactions to him saying it.

@Patrick Fie lol because it was random and Brian was totally ignored while trying desperately to stay relevant

Brian: "Well, in physics ( club ) we talk about physics, properties of physics..."
Bender: "So it's sort of social. Demented and sad, but social, right?"

It was at this point I started liking Bender. 😄

Bender is a joke. This part is my favourite scene. And sometimes I wind my friends up with this scene when I’m drunk lol 😂

"Oh this should be stunning."

I have carried that line with me for years and still use it on occasion when I know someone's about to say something stupid.

"you might as well not even exist at this school." That's a shitty thing to say though.

Especially with Allison sitting there too, she heard that and you could probably say it applies to her too.

Abeede Ahmed

4y↑44

@Dr Scalpers it applies to Allison even more, because Bender has friends. Allison has no one, which is why she felt it even more, but she doesn't have Bender's attitude to retort so she stayed silent

Yes, and it actually got to Bender, too, you could see on his face that he was hurt by that remark.

Just because Bender isn't the most book smart doesn't mean he isn't the most intelligent.

Bucky Dornster

You can be intelligent and not know anything about anything.

AppleClassicGamer

Why is this movie so relatable? I swear I can relate a kid at my school to every main character in this movie!

Bucky Dornster

This is a really dark film. Everyone seems to think it turns out well, but not really when you look at the ending obliquely. It's a tragedy because not one character can change or has control-- self- or other.

Malin Hessedahl

Love this movie ❤

Markus Criticus It's actually about as perfect as a movie exploring adolescence can be. I like it more now in my twenties than I did as a teenager, and I fucking loved it as a teenager.

No, you grow up and get a little perspective.
Teenage angst is a little self absorbing.

Bender is best character in the history of ever. If you’ve ever wanted to see Kurt Cobain in high school. This is the closest thing you’ll get
