Andrew McCarthy Tweeted the above picture and said, “Holy sh*t, my high school prom date just sent me this photo from the big night. Let’s see yours.” And all I could think is 6 years before Blane took Andie to the prom in Pretty In Pink, his real life prom date was also pretty in pink.
Well that and what is up with his hair? Seriously even as teenager he was so freaking cute. Seriously don’t you wish the boys you went to high school looked as good as he did?
Before Andrew McCarthy was working for a department store in Mannequin, he was working for Pepsi for Burger King. He looks as cute now as he did when he was 21 in that 1983 commercial.

Andrew McCarthy was promoting his book A Moveable Feast and the way he look really lit my St Elmo’s Fire! I don’t know why but recently he hasn’t looked as good as he did when he was in the brat pack movies, but in these picture he definitely has my Pretty in Pink happy! Yes I don’t know what that means either, but what it does mean is that the 47 year is looking so good I want to spend more than a Weekend at Bernie’s with him!!!
Talk about a remake that should be dead like the lead character in the movie and that film is Weekend at Bernie’s. Moviehole is reporting that Gladden Entertainment is redoing the Andrew McCarthy/Jonathan Silverman flick, but instead of at a beach they will do it at a ski lodge. Because we all know dead bodies smell better in the cold as compared to the hot summer sun. Seriously why? Weekend a Bernie’s is a cult classic that is fine the way it is and it doesn’t need to be put on ice with a crappy remake.
BTW Gladden Entertainment is also working on remaking another one of Andrew McCarthy’s film’s Mannequin. I don’t know what their obsession with him is, but why do we have to suffer for it. Actually it is kind of scary how obsessed they are with Andrew McCarthy movies, they better not f*ck with Pretty in Pink because there will be nothing pretty about that.
Here is some window dressing that I wish Hollywood would’ve walked on by, but sadly they didn’t because Moviehole is reporting that they are remaking Mannequin. The fun ’80s movie that starred Andrew McCarthy, Kim Cattrall, Estelle Getty, James Spader and Meshach Taylor is in the early stages of development by the newly relaunched Gladden Entertainment. Maybe instead of relaunching old movie, they should try coming up with new ideas? Because Hollywood is so sad these day they probably would cast hm Hollywood Montrose, after all they probably wouldn’t have to spend any money on wardrobe because that is the American Idol loser dresses anyways.
