Let’s get in the Tardis, or the souped-up DeLorean, or the Austin Powers Love Bug (your choice) and travel back in time to 1984, a simpler time. A time when future hunks roamed the earth in embroyonic, geeky form, interviewing 13-year-old teddy bear collectors at International Teddy Bear Conventions.
Ladies and/or gentlemen, I give you: Keanu Reeves, Boy Reporter.

Well, apparently none of you felt strongly enough about avenging Duckie from Pretty in Pink, as the overwhelming majority chose to give their diamond stud earrings to Bender aka Judd Nelson. So, it seems like the producers were right when they had Andie pick Blaine over Duckie after all.
I’m going to move out of John Hughes territory (finally!) and start a brand new Faceoff with two men who were in their prime in the 80′s. And both of whom favored the five-o-clock shadow look.

Apparently, Posh and Cruz are exiting an LA area restaurant for brother Romeo’s 7th birthday party.
OK, now maybe the uber-rich have very different parties for 7 year olds, but in my world, unless there is something utterly fantastic, like a personal DJ, a quarter-scaled replica of the space shuttle, and custom sundae bar, no 7 year old is going to have fun at a restaurant.
Awww, it breaks my heart to say that James Spader’s Steff lost to Judd Nelson’s Bender as your favorite John Hughes bad boy. Which is small consolation for Judd, as he hasn’t done a whole lot since The Breakfast Club. That’s OK James, we’ll always have Secretary and Sex, Lies, and Videotape. Erm, excuse me for a second, I need to go fan myself off…
Okee-dokee, I’m back.
Because I am still in a nostalgic mood, or maybe just because I’m feeling particularly lazy today, I’m going to extend my John Hughes thing just one more time. Or most likely, because SusanG gave me the idea!
And I promise, this will be the last John Hughes themed CDF!

Since I am packing Mr. Dennis Quaid off to his frankly surprising spot in the Celebrity Dad Hall of Fame, I thought I would try something different today. I guess Rob Lowe was just too pretty for everyone, and though he put up a valiant fight, he lost by a fairly thin margin.
I’m sure all of you have by now heard of the death of director John Hughes, who made some of the best teen films ever to hit the screen. And really, I’m not just saying that because I am totally biased because they came out when I was a teenager.
So in honor of Mr. Hughes, I thought I would do a special double edition, with some of his most memorable characters from the movies The Breakfast Club and Pretty in Pink. The two that win this week will face off next week.
We’ll see if your soft spot is for the good guys or the bad boys. I have my theories, let’s see what happens.

And from Pretty in Pink we have:
