When I was a kid I thought Cameron was actually sick and wondered why he went out with Ferris...now that I'm an adult I'm realizing that looks like one helluva depressive episode
Same. I’m just now realizing the whole movie is about Cameron and his escape from that bed, that home, and that family. One of the greatest movies and greatest characters ever!
@@shutup5466 there’s a cool theory that ferris is actually just a figment of Cameron’s imagination, Cameron’s depression and anxiety causes him to use the character of ferris as a scapegoat to do all the things he truly wants to do
He was in the past; with exception of a letter to Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) at the very beginning of the third "Back to the Future" movie, Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) wasn't seen or heard from after "Back to The Future: Part II". In fact, if you watch the beginning of the third film, when Marty reads Doc Brown's letter, it clearly states that Doc Brown had gone back to 1985.
You know they’re close friends when they know each other too well. Ferris: “I betcha 20 bucks that he’s debating on whether he’ll go or not in his car.” *Meanwhile, with Cameron...* *Sniff...* Cameron: “He’ll keep calling me, he’ll keep calling me until I come, he’ll make me feel guilty...”
I love the background music changing from the happy Hawaii music to just gloomy as shit stay in bed all day music 0:30 - 1:20 . One of the best comedies ever made.
Cameron suffering with depression really needs a friend like Ferris. To help him enjoy life and not take everything so seriously. Life will beat you to the ground or bed if you let it.
Ferris never cared about Cameron. He only used him as a pawn in his psycho manupilative game. He even put him in the front of a pool when Cameron was catatonic instead taking him to doctor. I certainly don't have to mention the time that Ferris stole Cameron's father's car and hid Cameron in the trunk.
Cameron is definitely the most interesting character in the movie to me, and seeing him grow and learn to both enjoy life and stand up for himself is really satisfying
Sounds like you’re just high in introversion. You enjoy people and conversation but your energy for lack of a better term is drained the more people are around you. If you’re the type to be exhausted after even a short family gathering then you definitely are an introvert. Or I’m completely wrong
From IMDb: According to John Hughes, Cameron was based, in large part, on a friend of his in high school. "He was sort of a lost person. His family neglected him, so he took that as license to really pamper himself. When he was legitimately sick, he actually felt good, because it was difficult and tiring to have to invent diseases, but when he actually had something, he was relaxed."
I prefer the idea that this has happened before and Ferris and Cameron know each other so well, that Ferris knew almost exactly when Cameron was gonna say that since he’s pulled that off before. As for Cameron, he knows Ferris well enough that he knows how it’ll end. It’s like if Dante and Randall from Kevin Smith’s Clerks were in high school.
@@TimeTravelinc I believe that's the intended impression, and I also like it more than the theory. It's just a friendlier, more fun approach. There's nothing particularly "dark" about the theory, but I still don't love it.
Grace Stenberg No kidding; in the last couple of years, he's also been arrested and thrown in prison for failing to re-register as a sex offender in his home state of Florida for the afore-mentioned child porn possession charge.
"When Cameron was in Egypt's land, let my Cameron go." Also: "Pardon my French, but Cameron is so tight, that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in 2 weeks you'd have a diamond". ^_^
You gotta love how Ferris flat out lies to his father with a smile on his face, hangs up, and goes straight into talking about how Cameron has disappointed him.
Pardon my French, but Camereon is so tight, that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you have a diamond. lol best part, aside from the whole movie. XD
I was sick last sunday and I felt just like Cameron *I'm dying...* then my dad made some grilled chicken and then I was still like Cameron *ok, i'll go... I'll go...*
Mr. Bueller: You sound terrible Ferris: Oh really? Darn, I thought I was improving LOL I love the synth music in Cameron's bedroom. Last time I was sick I did the "when Cameron was in Egypt's land" thing. :D
I like the theories people came up with about Cameron’s character. There’s the one where Ferris is in his imagination or that Ferris basically prevents Cameron’s suicide by showing him the brighter side of things
This dialogue is simply amazing. The change in music throughout the conversation is perfect. Depressed music on camerons line, and tropical music on Ferris's.
"You're not dying, you just can't think of anything good to do." Fits so well for depression, like trying to shrug off weight that isn't really there at all.
I watched this in 86’ in the theater when it first came out. 😃 That car scene is so hilarious when he feels conflicted about going out, I remember laughing so hard in the theater that I cried.😂 That’s how I feel most days about life in general, since I was young. 😄
He does somewhat, only David Schwimmer put more enthusiasm into Melman; I don't know if Alan Ruck would have put any enthusiasm into his character. BTW, can we go over to the fun side now?
"You're not dying you just can't think of anything good to do". I literally had a friend tell me something like that when he wanted to go do something and I told him I couldn't because I had a migraine. "You don't have a migraine, you just don't have anything better to do!". We all need a friend like that! 😄
I've seen this movie a million times, but I only just noticed that Cameron knows Ferris is going to call, his finger ready to hit speaker before the phone even rings. Awww.
This shows why screenwriting should include motivation. Things should not just happen easily because the screenwriter wants them to. Events should have real-life complications like in this scene. In real life, when you want things to happen, it takes effort to make them happen. It would have been so easy to just have Cameron show up at Ferris's house with a throwaway line of why did you ask me to come over here? This scene is so much more realistic because in real life people have to argue before they can agree on things. And people need to come up with their own reasons to do things before they do them. A good screenplay needs to let us in on these motivations so we can relate to the characters.
I haven't watched this in years. I forgot how much my brother and I still quote from this clip - even yelling while revving the car up when we don't want to drive somewhere.
The last minute of this clip has got to be on The Top 10 Dunniest Scenes in Cinematic History. I can't watch it without crying from laughing so hard. To me, this scene alone is worth the price of admission.
I wanted to be Ferris Buller when I grew up. I became Cameron instead.

Ferris is just a part of Cameron’s psyche.

But you know: everyone said "save Ferris" when Cameron was the only one who was actually sick

EricEbac22 That's one of the funniest lines in the whole movie.
Easily one of the funniest bits of any movie, so weird and unexpected, yet fits perfectly.
Mine too
iss very hard to imagine that cameron was 30 when he made this movie
I thought his DOB was a typo when I looked up his IMDB page. He sure had me fooled!
I know, right? He looks so Young and, well, I will admit VERY godd looking...
xXAthenatheWiseXx
Oh, honey, there's no "admit" about it. He was a hard ten back in the day, still is!
he still looks like hes in his 40s lol and hes like 60 years old

Underrated line for sure
Cameron is definitely the most interesting character in the movie to me, and seeing him grow and learn to both enjoy life and stand up for himself is really satisfying
But..we don't know what happened to Cameron after he had his "little talk" with his father about the car. Haven't heard from him since.
When it comes to any types of social events, I am Cameron lol
I hear ya dude
Me too
That's me when I say IM going to go to a party
ok buddy
Sounds like you’re just high in introversion. You enjoy people and conversation but your energy for lack of a better term is drained the more people are around you. If you’re the type to be exhausted after even a short family gathering then you definitely are an introvert. Or I’m completely wrong
The movie never again addresses how Cameron was legitimately sick, yet he acts like he isn't. What a true hero
Fouxjin he wasn't actually sick. just depressed from his sucky parents so he THINKS he's sick when he really isnt
Fouxjin that makes more sense :)
Sick of his parents
Hypochondriac.

This movie is mostly about Cameron's coming of age. I love how this scene sets up his character and personality flaws.
I know right love how he had more character development than the main character
He knows Cameron says he is dying, he tells Cameron it's all in his head. Yup. I'm starting to believe the theory
Roseand Stem what’s the theory?
TheGaminGuy 913 That EVERYTHING that happened in the movie never actually occurred. It was all in Cameron's head.
I like the theory that this movie is a prequel to fight club.
I prefer the idea that this has happened before and Ferris and Cameron know each other so well, that Ferris knew almost exactly when Cameron was gonna say that since he’s pulled that off before.

Cameron is one of the craziest and funniest characters to ever grace the silver screen :)

Yes it is! I think the best 2 movies ever made are Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Back to the Future because not one person dislikes those movies.
Doesn't Cameron remind anyone of the giraffe from Madagascar? I think similar almost same voice when sick
+David Nunez YES definitely I've thought this forever
He does somewhat, only David Schwimmer put more enthusiasm into Melman; I don't know if Alan Ruck would have put any enthusiasm into his character. BTW, can we go over to the fun side now?

8 years later, Cameron leads the Enterprise on a rescue mission that results in the death of Captain Kirk. That’s far worse than wrecking the Ferrari.
