Breakfast Club: The John Hughes Extended Edition, The

For me this view was fun, as i knew upfront that Qualitywise some extra Scenes will not be that good.
I wanted to see it anyway and my love for this Movie is unbroken.

I enjoyed watching this Edit but i have to be honest, it did not bring much new for me to the Table.
The Original release has this comedyfeel to it, that got lost a bit in this one.
Sure, if this was the attention all along it is fine and i highly appreciate the work,
but the jumpy back and fourth in some scenes made it harder to watch.

That said, some of the Scenes are brilliant and i would have loved them in the Movie for real.

The Extended is for real Fans of the Movie, i would say, a Must Watch afterall.
Therefore i am glad that Blueyoda took this task up.

The previous reviewers complain about the quality of the footage, so I won't make a big thing about it. The added footage is usually of poor quality. However, after the third or so "new" scene, I realized that I would be watching this as an academic piece rather than as a feature, because it's immediately obvious why most of the scenes were removed. Most of them are examples of the characters being much more caustic and unlikable. Sometimes they add an additional facet, but most of the time there are better examples elsewhere in the film. I agree with other reviewers that while it may make for a more "complete" version of the film, adding back in two or three seconds of grainy footage because a glance or gesture was removed makes the film more jumpy and harder to get into, but I don't mind the entire scenes of added footage. That was the point, after all.

And am I crazy or have I seen some of this footage before on TV?

Anyway, it very enjoyable. It won't replace the theatrical cut for me, but it does broaden my understanding of the process this movie in particular went through, so it's worth watching for sure.

Love your extended version, glad someone took the project on. Only issue I have with it is that it has been encoded using variable frame rate instead of constant which causes major issues with judder on streaming boxes and htpc etc. Have tried to fix it myself by transcoding it to constant but still having issues. Any chance of re-encoding it using constant instead.

A very well done edit!! Cheers!!
If only the extra footage had been printed :(
