I like this one better, but it's one of my favs from the '80s. SKOW is pretty good, too.

Just one of the guys gets my vote and would be in my Top 5 teen movies
SKOW was good but it felt like a poor mans Pretty In Pink. I know John Hughes was behind both but it had less heart and recycled idea. I also agree the ending wasn't great.

Both films are great but I prefer Some Kind of Wonderful.

I prefer Just one of the guys over SKOW

That's called 'taking it for granted'. I first watched The Breakfast Club when I was fifteen and it instantly became one of my favourite movies. Every time I watch it I wish I was an 80s kid.

There were a lot of movies back then in this class and they all have their place. Think I saw this one more though. Better off Dead was on a lot too. The Hughes movies were over rated. People now think they were important to us back then as kids but adults liked them better than we did.

Just wish I could find Some Kind of Wonderful on DVD

I can't choose. They both have their strong points.
Just One of the Guys has better humor. Mostly thanks to Buddy.
Some Kind of Wonderful has a better love story.
They're awesome movies and I love them both so much!

Tough one. They are two completely different movies but I have to go with Just one of the Guys. I grew up watching this movie and always get a kick out of it.

Just One of the Guys. Very underrated.
Funny film. No fluffy moments.

I enjoyed SKOW, but the ending seemed very forced. I don't think Keith really loved Watts; it seemed since Amanda didn't want him, he went to Watts. Plus, he bought the earrings initially for Amanda, so I felt sorry for Watts. Kind of like "sloppy seconds."

The biggest reason this movie is so funny is Billy Jacoby and his sarcastic sense of humor, the supporting cast works too, but in my opinion the star is Buddy and he should be a big start, but who knows why he's not.

This movie is so funny, I don't know how many times I've seen it now. It's Joyce Hyser who is the main reason, she is credible both as a gorgeous girl and a (good looking) boy, and she acts very well, so funny. Why did'nt she become a great movie star? A mystery to me.

Both are great movies, but JOOTG is a little better. LOVE Billy Jacoby and of course William Zabka playing the usual A******!! Yes, it's right up there with the rest of the great 80's flicks.

The actors in Just One Of The Guys are working actors as opposed to some of the actors in Some Kind Of Wonderful who are more akin to celebrities.

"nowhere to be found"? Haven't you seen Buddy in the new Curcuit City commercials

i liked both of the movies, but based on the fact that all the actors in "some kind of wonderful" are still making movies today, and the actors in "one of the guys" are no where to be found.i would say that "some kind.." is by far the better movie, and out of the 2 its the one that i own, and watch.

I actually like "Just One Of The Guys" better than the "Breakfast Club". Breakfast Club is of course a classic 80's teen movie, but the entire movie took place in one location and I don't know, it didn't have enough variety for me. I much prefer JOOTG, but I love "Some Kind of Wonderful" too. My faves in order are:
1)Just One Of The Guys
2)Some Kind Of Wonderful
3)The Breakfast Club
Viva La Adam!

The Breakfast Club beats them both.
