Breakfast club

I know, I know. This is a stupid thread, but I couldn't find the answer anywhere so...

In the movie "The Breakfast Club" does the "criminal" have a first name? He seems to just be referred to as Bender throught the movie. I need to know for a school paper so any help would be great. thanks

John.

Where did you look? Todays newspaper?

I typed "The Breakfast Club Bender" into my favorite search engine, and the first result had the answer you silly rabbit. Admit it, you are an attention whore.

[spudmaster34]

Actually, I watched the movie and didn't see it...

you are an attention whore.

I might be one kind of whore, but attention isn't it.

His name is "John Bender", as others noted.

I do like that movie though.

 

[Indiana Mike]

Dad says , as he gives him a carton of smokes for Xmas

" smoke up johnny!"

 

[spudmaster34]

Ahh, I thought that "Johnny" in reference to the carton of cigarettes was just an expresion, because john is a generic male name. it makes more sense now

"You won't accept a guy's tongue in your mouth but you're gonna eat that?"

Bender to Claire as she's eating sushi for lunch. One of my favorite lines in the movie.

I did not know that he (the principal) had passed away earlier this year.

[Neb Maro]

That was such a great movie.
I thought it was hilarious when they all got high.
It was also pretty funny when Claire showed them her trick.

 

[Jeff Martinez]

His name is also mentioned when Mr. Vernon says,

"You think he's funny? You think this is cute? You think he's "bitchin," is that it? Let me tell you something. Look at him - he's a bum. You want to see something funny? You go visit John Bender in five years. You'll see how g**damned funny he is. "

Im almost ashamed to say, Ive seen The Breakfast Club well over 100 times. In high school I didnt have cable in my room, so I just had that movie in my vcr on an endless loop lol.

That movie was the shiznit back in the day. Me and another guy rewrote it as a screenplay for the high school one-act play. I used to know every stinkin' word in that movie.

Naked blonde walks into a bar with a poodle under one arm, and a two-foot salami under the other. The bartender says, I guess you won't be needing a drink. Naked lady says...

Does it drive anyone else insane that there is never a punchline? I so wish I knew what it was after all this time lol.
