Duckie and Steff became my favorites


Primarily I loved Jon Cryer as Alan Harper in Two and a half Men but I have to say after seeing Pretty in Pink it's definitive that Duckie stands out as an alone star in the universe of Hollywood. I mean his humorous lines just cracked me up and his style the walking, the talking , the attitude indeed as Alan san in TAAHM some might say that he was the star of the show and indeed he was.

The alternate ending was good for Duckie getting another girl. Not for Andie she should've ended up alone but after all the gold digger got her gold .

Steff is also the only interesting one after Duckie and after Steff comes Iona but she had a small part. Steff owns up to his stuff. He admits he's a scum, goes right to her and tells her that he want her I don't know why she played the b in this one after all she wanted rich guys. Also after the fight with Duckie he says Nice huh ? and calmly this man is fearless he is an *beep* but owns up to everything he does even if it means despicable that's what makes it interesting.

Sincerely Duckie is a complete character and I was Duckie in middle and high school so I get him. 8/10 2 point of because of the ending that B should've ended up alone or die you know for all I cared.

Andie wasn't a gold digger. She just happened to fall for Blaine. I personally would pick Duckie over Blaine any day, but it's understandable that someone might not. She didn't feel for him in that way and that's ok because he ended up with a girl that did. She didn't like Blaine because of his money, she liked him for him.

Besides that I am in agreement with you. I've always loved Duckie and Steff. Steff's a dick but he owns it and he's pretty hot. Duckie is just awesome!

Golddigger? Go home jerome. You didn't watch the same movie the rest of us did. You sound like every other insecure loser complaining that women would date them if only they had more money or if they were alpha males. Get real. The reason why the Duckies of the world don't get the girl is because they are attention seeking, annoying, no-boundary-having brats who only befriend women because they think it'll turn into something more later.

Sheesh. Get some therapy. Check your narcissism and entitlement.
