Ferris was being a smart-a** but basically it means he doesn't believe in any ideology. He believes in himself.
You calling me un-patriotic because I don't like blatantly racist, sexist, and elitist films?! Now that's un-American!
I'm kidding of course
You're probably right about all of those. But, you know, childhood memories and stuff!
I can see that in retrospect, but during the movie itself, I was terrified. I was in my mid-twenties at the time, and for the first time since I was, oh, I dunno, EIGHT or so, I slept with the lights on that night.
Tyler Perry's (anything). Give it a rest, man.
Same goes for anything by 'James Patterson'.

Ferris Bueller....that's another one. Dumb and another waste of time.
From every clip I saw I had zero interest. Looked dumb. Finally decided maybe it's one of those movies you have to actually watch the whole thing or it doesn't make sense. So, I finally watched it and my only thought was....well there's two hours I'll never get back.
I've also never watched The Breakfast Club, and since they kind of go together in my mind....I'm gonna keep those two hours TYVM. Ditto St. Elmo's Fire.
What are your top 3 favorite movies?
Based on what you said above you should definitely steer clear of any John Hughes movie! (16 Candles, and a few others!)
Top three, I doubt any three always stay there.
Gone With the Wind would definitely be there. But I like almost all genres.
But the ones other people feel are iconic....I just don't get it.

I thought that it was a requirement that everyone had to see The Breakfast Club. I still have to watch whenever I catch it on.

That one has simply never appealed to me in any way, but I'm probably too old to identify with it.I thought that it was a requirement that everyone had to see The Breakfast Club.

Pfft... I'm 51 and love it
I liked Dumb & Dumber; almost anything Jerry Lewis; Identity Thief; Ted; Horrible Bosses, Night at the Museum; almost anything Robin Williams; back to the future; ghostbusters; big; bill & Ted.
I do actually like comedies.
But...was Ferris Bueller a comedy? Seriously....I was supposed to laugh.
I don't know but you made me laugh! Horrible Bosses! I thought it was mildly funny.. hubby fell asleep.
Have you seen "Knocked Up"? You might like that!
