Therefore, you all are rewarded with multiple posts.
So my "Where Are They Now?" Segment. This, I think, will be shorter than I originally envisioned and include only a bear minimum of information. If you want more...follow the links for yourself.
Emilio Estevez (05/12/62 - 22 at the time of TBC release): Will be reprising his role as Coach Gordon Bombay in "The Mighty Ducks 4: The Call of the Quack". Which looks like it could have even more potential sequels. Apparently this is one of his most famous roles ever.
Anthony Michael Hall (04/14/68 - 16 at the time of release): Currently on "The Dead Zone" which is actually a pretty good TV show. Another bit 'o' trivia - Anthony was the youngest cast member of SNL. But, he was only on for one season, because then he entered rehab. As Court would say, "Ah, poor Anthony." (Imagine it in a voice that is not at all sympathetic.)
Judd Nelson (11/28/59 - 26 at the time of release) After the mega hit of "Suddenly Susan", how can he go onto bigger and better things? Obviously he can't. Basically he has been in some, what I can only assume to be, stinker movies (big screen and TV). Next up: a TV movie about a Black Hole in St. Louis...ah, now that one sounds like a winner.
Molly Ringwald (02/18/68 - almost 17 at the time of release) She went to France for awhile and fell off the face of the Earth. Now she is doing some stage acting in NYC and London. As long as she remembers her career started on "The Facts of Life" she will be fine.
Ally Sheedy (06/13/62 - 22 at the time of release) Trivia: Who knew she wrote a book? When she was 12. She was Nice to Mice is about Queen Elizabeth I. More Trivia: She turned down the role of "Charlie" in "Top Gun". Ally really isn't up to anything major. She has a movie that came out at the Southwest Film Festival in March. It also stars Jason Behr, formerly of "Roswell". Dude, I kind of feel sorry for her. She was a member of The Brat Pack.. how the mighty have fallen.
Anyone else a little depressed by the state of these careers (and I use the term loosely)? The only one I am still holding out hope for I AMH, he seems to be doing alright. But they could all use a Tarantino makeover.

My work friend Annette is taking voice lessons in NYC from AMH's mommy! I know, OOOOOH!
Also, didn't Ally Sheedy successfully battle anorexia? Couldn't that be counted as having made something of her life? Also, two years after TBC, she made Maid To Order, which in my opinion is the kind of movie where you can just coast after making it...but that's just me...
