the guy who played the principal-Richard Vernon was Paul Xavier Gleason and died in 2006. The deleted scenes are pretty interesting:
Deleted scenes
John Hughes' first draft of the film was originally scripted out to be a 2-1/2 hour film. However, many of the scenes were cut out and the negatives destroyed. John Hughes had stated that he has the only complete copy of The Breakfast Club, albeit in a VHS copy.[2] Following his death in August 2009, however, the location of the VHS is unknown. This copy was shown by Hughes to a staff member of Premiere magazine for an article. Among the cut scenes from the movie (some filmed, some only written) are:[2]
The janitor Carl talks with Vernon about where the five kids will be in the future. According to Vernon, Bender will have killed himself, Claire will have had "two boob jobs and a face lift," Brian will have become very successful but die of a heart attack due to the stress of the high paying job. Allison will be a great poet but no one will care, and Andy will marry a gorgeous airline stewardess who will become fat after having kids.
In a dream, Allison imagines Andy as a gluttonous Viking, Bender as a prisoner, Claire as a bride, Brian as an astronaut and herself as a vampire. In an unfilmed alternative to this dream, all five kids imagine random things, including cars, naked women, Godzilla, beer and fighter planes, and these things end up filling the room until Vernon interrupts.
John Bender was not going to walk to school in the original script. He was going to be driven by his dad in a rusty tow truck, and have a brief fight with him before his dad drives off. Bender is also tossed a bagged lunch, his father saying "You are a waste of lunch-meat!"
After Bender demonstrates "Life at Big Bri's house" Brian stops Bender and corrects him with a much more pessimistic version of the skit. Claire then proceeds to act out her life before asking Bender to demonstrate his version. Bender's routine changes as well here. After Bender mimics his mom, he stops, commenting that "then they make me work to pay off the dentist for the teeth HE busts."
In the scene where Bender is inspecting Brian's lunch, there is a note in the lunch from his mom and John reads it.
The scene where Andy and Allison are walking to get the sodas is extended to a point where Allison pulls out a pack of cigarettes and smokes one.
After getting the sodas, Bender shakes his can violently and places it among the five to see who gets the rigged one. Allison ends up getting it, and when she opens the can, all the soda squirts directly into her mouth.
After Vernon asks who has to use the lavatory, the five go to the bathroom. Vernon gives the boys two minutes and the girls three minutes. Claire catches Allison in a stall eating a bag of chips, repulsing her. Bender mocks Brian for sitting down to urinate instead of using a urinal.
When Allison says, "I can write with my toes", she actually does so. This was filmed.
Several staff members were cut out of the script before filming. Dr. Lange, a social studies teacher who dresses oddly, Andre a sociopathic Film Studies teacher, Brian a neurotic PE Teacher, Ed the mute cafeteria worker who shouldn't be at the school on a Saturday and Robin, a gym teacher. Robin helps Vernon on a few workout machines until Vernon injures his back, and she eventually visits the students while they are in their circle in the library. Robin initially replaced many of Carl's scenes and Carl was originally set to be a minor character with only two scenes.
John and Claire's kissing scene in the closet was cut because Hughes felt that "screen kissing wears thin very quickly." Molly Ringwald described it as a "great kiss".

well the author of "Less than Zero" just wrote a sequel so maybe they'll make a movie about it, although I don't know if they can still afford Robert Downey, Jr.

god I smell a remake coming soon. THis movie has been getting a lot of talk over the past 5 years and you know what that leads to.

And I have to disagree with a part 2...the first is a cult classic...leave it alone

leave Weird Science ALONE

Leave Ferris Buelers Day Off ALONE.

Leave the Goonies ALONE

Leave the Karate kid ALONE.

it would be something expected.
until claires dad and mom decide together she cant date john.
and andys dad wont let him date because he needs to focus on wrestling.
LOL, or better yet that Vernon was reported on by carl (the janitor) for going thru the employee files and so he was suspended in the Part II and so carl was running the show and so lets just say that the library was a happening place that following saturday

And you expect people to pay $10 to see that crap? Hollywood has been producing bunch of crap movies lately but this movie'd have been beyond crap...

After reading all this, I am glad they edited out all that. Most of it sounded like an acid trip, they would have changed the vide of the movie or more like ruined it imho.

Sounds a little better than the original idea but to spice things up, the original actors should reprise their roles!
Kidding, the sequel imo should have the original actors but this time they are playing the parents and their kids are having breakfast together on a Saturday morning! Perhaps a few flashbacks from the original movie thrown in for good measure or for the audience who needs to use the restroom or get more popcorn...

Another way to screw up another classic as they did with the new Ghost Busters..
There is mention of a remake of the Goonies another movie to butcher. Seeing that kids don't play outside anymore this movie will suck & I'm sure the PC crowd will have a problem with a fat kid doing the truffle shuffle.
