Election. If Bueller was there I would have a bit of internal conflict, but would likely vote for Election anyway, as it is pretty much perfect.

― chap, Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:28 (nineteen years ago)

the scene at the end where he throws his drink is pretty awesome

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:29 (nineteen years ago)

the worst movie on this list is easily the stepford wives, despite also having christopher walken and bette midler in it. that movie was fucking terrible. i basically blame nicole kidman's presence for making that movie so bad.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:29 (nineteen years ago)

i mean jon lovitz! glenn close!

― Laurel, Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:33 (nineteen years ago)

cable guy is a totally awesome movie, i should've left out election too. in fact i should've just made the choices cable guy, project x, and faerie tale theatre.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:33 (nineteen years ago)

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:34 (nineteen years ago)

I voted for Ladyhawke, just FYI

― Laurel, Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:34 (nineteen years ago)

He's fine in Election and also that one where he's Laura Linney's scummy boss.

Vastly preferable as pudgy middle-aged man in crisis than as uberconfident Reagan-era teenage snot.

― Dr Morbius, Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:35 (nineteen years ago)

in fact i'm just going to put it out there and say that the freshman is probably my second favorite movie with marlon brando in it.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:36 (nineteen years ago)

No Ferris no cred.

― Trayce, Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:36 (nineteen years ago)

― Laurel, Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:39 (nineteen years ago)

Ferris Bueller = GW Bush in Chicago

(schef, also WarGames)

wow wow ladyhonks is a funny funny word

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:46 (nineteen years ago)

Wargames is great, but not because of Broderick's stunning performance or anything. I voted Election.

― kenan, Thursday, 14 June 2007 14:53 (nineteen years ago)

yeah, hard to vote against WarGames, but I go with the Freshman

― gabbneb, Thursday, 14 June 2007 15:36 (nineteen years ago)

I swear I saw Inspector Gadget once and it was only actually like 27 minutes long.

― nickalicious, Thursday, 14 June 2007 15:37 (nineteen years ago)

I know this actually belongs in FRENCH STEWART Y/N but remember when they marketed the release date of the direct-to-DVD Inspector Gadget 2 as IG-2UESDAY?

― A B C, Thursday, 14 June 2007 15:44 (nineteen years ago)

think i hate this dude more than cusack

― strongohulkington, Thursday, 14 June 2007 15:45 (nineteen years ago)

this makes sense alongside the cusack-rudd debate
and the cable guy is underrated

― rrrobyn, Thursday, 14 June 2007 15:47 (nineteen years ago)

i understand cusack hate but broderick seems pretty harmless?

― A B C, Thursday, 14 June 2007 15:48 (nineteen years ago)

then again i guess he actually has killed a guy

― A B C, Thursday, 14 June 2007 15:48 (nineteen years ago)

yeah i dunno why he irks me

― strongohulkington, Thursday, 14 June 2007 15:49 (nineteen years ago)

I swear I saw Inspector Gadget once and it was only actually like 27 minutes long.
Are you sure it wasn't an episode of the cartoon?

― The Yellow Kid, Thursday, 14 June 2007 20:07 (nineteen years ago)

his IRL schtick seems to be the tense/stiff guy, but with none of the charming quirks to temper the awkwardness. I don't get this dude.

― wanko ergo sum, Thursday, 14 June 2007 20:12 (nineteen years ago)

he peaked in war games. out acted by an amiga for christsakes

― The Macallan 18 Year, Thursday, 14 June 2007 20:15 (nineteen years ago)

I exaggerated but wiki says Gadget = "Running time 78 minutes", which is pretty short.

― nickalicious, Thursday, 14 June 2007 20:17 (nineteen years ago)

and upstaged by a child molester in FBDO! xpost

― wanko ergo sum, Thursday, 14 June 2007 20:17 (nineteen years ago)

Car accident

On August 5, 1987, Broderick was in Northern Ireland, vacationing with Jennifer Grey, when he veered their rented BMW into the wrong lane on a country road in Enniskillen, County Fermanagh and smashed head-on into a car driven by Anna Gallagher, 28. She and her mother, Margaret Doherty, 63, were killed. Broderick received a broken leg,[17] while Grey received minor injuries.[18]

Broderick told authorities he had no recollection of the crash and did not know why he was in the wrong lane. "I don't remember the day. I don't remember even getting up in the morning. I don't remember making my bed. What I first remember is waking up in the hospital, with a very strange feeling going on in my leg," he said at the time.[19] Broderick was charged with causing death by dangerous driving and faced a prison term of up to five years. He was later convicted of the lesser charge of careless driving and fined $175. The victims' family called the case "a travesty of justice."[19]

Broderick agreed to meet with the family of the two women in the spring of 2003 so that the family could gain some sense of closure about the accident.[19]
