[@twbl218]

Born in 69. I went on a first date to see the breakfast club. The movie starts, My date mistakenly thought that simple minds was David Bowie. She whispered to me “Oh I hate David Bowie.” I was like “who hates Bowie? And this is simple minds not Bowie.” She argues with me, “this is Bowie” and I’m like “no it’s not! Who hates Bowie?” Then the quote from Bowie comes on the screen, from Changes. She leans in and says “see I told you it was Bowie!” Needless to say, we never saw each other again, and my mantra for future dating was based on whether or not they liked David Bowie.

[@HankBukowski]

Same. 😂

[@lindorini]

Yup!!

[@tylero8595]

76 here too. The 80s and 90s were the best. A few examples of movies I saw in the theatre: RAD Ghost Busters The Princess Bride 16 Candles Dirty Dancing Raiders Of the Lost Ark The Empire Strikes Back Return of The Jedi Die Hard Predator (on my 11th birthday) BAck to the Future Rain Man Who Framed Roger Rabbit RoboCop A Nightmare on Elm ST The Breakfast Club BIG Ferris Buellers Day Off Stand By Me Flight of the Navigator The Goonies The Explorers The Never Ending Story ( I live in Vancouver so it blew my mind when I saw shots of downtown) Space Camp Harry and the Hendersons Pee Wees Big Adventure Beetlejuice And I'm sure there are bunch of others I didnt list. My dad would drop us all off at the theatre and we would run around outside, playing tag. Goofing off. Then the doors would open to the theatre and we would go in. We would watch the movie and when it was done we would wait outside and do the same until we got picked up. If it was dark we would go to the ushers window and ask him to call our house. He would. And he would say your dad will be by in an hour or two. We didnt care. The longer he took, the better so we could play in the parking lot and trees around the theatre. Those were the days. I think my dad would go get high after he dropped us off. There were some movies we definitely should not have seen. The melting faces in Raiders of the lost Ark gave me nightmares for months after seeing that. I'm so happy my childhood was of that time. The memories are like movies in my mind. All 5 stars and 2 thumbs up.

I grew up in New York City during the Brat Pack era. I was just a couple of years younger than them, so they were the cool, it kids. So sad they took it that was, because we LOVED them! Rob knew when he said they could have filled stadiums back then. They could have. And Jon Cryer, "Duckie" you were so Brat Pack! And Alley Sheedy is dying that Andrew had a crush on her.

School programs getting cut, college prices going up, equipment from the 1970s. no ability to get student loans or full financial aid , class sizes ballooning. Ancient equioment and books. and suddenly sex was DEADLY, with no medicines. I was there and I wanted ro be in John Hughes films too! in reality the high school kids of the 90s had it better. One exeption was the end of the cold war, berlin wallcoming down. .... That was awesome! Songs "Right here right now" Jesus Jones, and "winds of change" by the Scorpions really captured that Mood.

I have always held a special spot in my heart for all of these actors and when I see any of them it always takes me back to that time, and yes, I do miss it. Though the Cold War was continuing while competing with Russia to have the most nukes, people seemed happier and carefree.

It might’ve been over exaggerated for you, but to someone else it was seminal in their being seen. That’s what’s great about these movies is not everybody had the same upbringing and privileged life and it gave diversity to voices that movies didn’t till the 80s showing us a different side of growing up.

[@Cletus_the_Elder]

Wow, 40 years ago. It went fast, but it does feel like an entirely different world. This was before grunge, before the rise of hip-hop in white markets. The soundtrack of that era was New Wave and recycled 50's music. There was disdain for all things 70's during the 80's. I don't know if it was a better time, but people who lived their youth in that era will definitely feel the nostalgia.

[@MoonOverYou]

The 1970s soundtrack was brilliant. Look at the Top 100 of each decade of the '70s. I grew up during the '60s and '70s. Our generation was highly educated and aware of social/political issues, which is incredible, considering how young we were.

[@ChrisPBacon3000]

Yes, New Wave/synthpop. Recycled 50's music? Like what? And BTW, 80's glam metal was massive. At least 50% or more of the market? Each pre-2000 era had it's pro's musically, but the peaks will always be 1932 start of Big Band Swing era, 1969 Woodstock, and 1981 MTV launch.

Emilio is the one that is the true 'get.' The reason for no Breakfast Club sequel, reunions, spinoffs, cartoon etc is him. He's been the hold out. His official narrative is that he just isn't into looking back, but forward. That always sounded like the politician answer from the least politician sounding guy. So I'm very curious the real reasons or beef that's been simmering all these decades. Rob looks like he's aged two days since those days. Insane. Emilio was kind of the triple threat kid prodigy amongst all them. He was writing and directing as well acting from the word Jump. He didn't really walk away. He just continued to focus on his projects he wrote and wanted to direct. And he's remained committed to that. He did a couple of movies with his pops Martin Sheen. Emilio had one legit street cred 80's classic: the neo-nour punk film Repo-Man.

I love all of these actors! They were all good looking and amazing! So many great films and many by John Hughes. Miss the 80's SOOOOO MUCH!

[@polish2x91]

Rob seems so genuinely sweet

[@audreyelmaleh9973]

I can’t wait for this. As a child of the 80s, I’m so excited.❤❤

[@aaronramirez6828]

My generation!!

[@guntertomsen6721]

Born in 64, saw the movies, joined the Navy, went to war. All their movies helped us through everything! Now my children love them.

Born in ‘70…. In HS my “Social Concerns” class watched Breakfast Club and it was amazing how all of us from different backgrounds and cultures bonded over it. The follow up discussions were so very touching. The height of it all was our schools star center on the basketball team who was attending Arizona on scholarship the next year, broke down crying revealing how his father has been abusing him. It was a shocker and eye opener to say the least… And I truly believe it was cause the movie made our feelings “feel normal”. True art!

My wife was 9 in 1985 She loves the Brat Pack I was 15 in 85 Sometimes you just have to say, I think you just had to be there😎

[@gabbyspringer8356]

Looking forward to this. Wishing on my leg warmers and acid washed jeans that it will not disappoint!

Fame, money, power and the lack of wisdom that usually accompanies youth is a helluva combination. Glad they survived. A lot didn’t. Back then, I think, a lot of us (especially the young and naïve like I was) assumed that their futures would be paved in gold. Definitely not the way the industry works. It’s nuanced, complicated, and not always predictable.

Being a 80s Chicago kid into film, - this was a special time to be a fan. Was amazed the suburban neighborhoods on the other side of town are producing 1/2 the gems in this doc - nailed that midwest vibe. Got inspired to be in film crews and met half these folks over years. I didn't like that contrived "Brat" label either. Don't like any labels. Simpleton way to cheapen and marginalize. Can't believe their era is only about 4-5 years of gems about '83-'88. While my least favorite genre, MCU & comics is over 15 years, and woke cinema is about 7 years strong of being achievement free. RIP movies.

[@Kinesiology411]

Brat Pack was just a reporter using the Rat pack as a toichstone, while throwing 80s shade, lol. Fellow Gen Xer here, green up in Chicago, spent 20 years working at Warner in development and production. Seems we have some shared history, lol.

[@itsallWeerd181]

I loved Demi from afar back in those days, it was a great era for film and music

[@fritzburbank935]

1971 was prime birthing time for 80s movies.

My whole childhood in one documentary ... and still in love with Ally Sheedy

Simple Minds 😊my favorite 80s music 😊I’m so lucky 🍀 I was an 80s kid 👧🏻born 1968 ❤graduated high school 1986 😊

[@MoonOverYou]

Born in the early '60s~I loved the music of the '70s, but college and the 1980s were the best times of my life. We played vinyl records, partied every chance we got, went to actual movie theatres, made friends without computers or iPhones, and we had the same hang-outs our parents did. Everything was real, tangible, and fun as hell. It made us forget about the dangers of politics: as the song goes, "All she wants to do is dance." And that's what we did. We danced. Does anyone dance anymore?

[@JeiElRai]

Dancing is huge. Club culture is global, both as a highly lucrative venture in clubs and festivals, and through underground events however people bring them together. Maybe the cultural place dancing holds has transformed so much that it's hard to keep up with, but it absolutely hasn't faded. In fact it reached new heights in both the 90s and 2010s

[@MoonOverYou]

@@JeiElRai It's perhaps my location~there isn't a lot of joy here anymore. In the '80s I was a member of an underground gay/lesbian group. Best and most fun friends I ever had. We had to keep our group secret, considering we lived in a very conservative, anti-gay environment. Sad to say, things haven't changed much here. 🙁

[@cierrablue]

Oh My God! Chills. I was a senior in high school when Breakfast Club came out. These guys were everything!!!!

[@Mothko]

Wow! So many great memories just flooded back. I loved all those movies. Can't wait to see this.

[@ginalynn4493]

I started jr high 1981, graduated 87 … these guys were my teenage yrs !!! Love them

[@MinalPatelRD]

They are all still adorable

[@user-gb8ii3gs3m]

A movie version from his book I guess, too bad John Huges, who essentially invented the Brat Pack, isn't around anymore. Notable absentee: in this trailer...Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson, AMH, boderline Robert Downey Jr., James Spader.

[@STse-ks5jg]

This is our generations "Big Chill", but thankfully a friend didn't have to die for them to get together! Thanks Bpack, the music and the movies are the best! (By the way listen to Rob Lowes autobiography, its amazing!)

[@s.patrick6136]

Looks great. Being a teenager starting in 81 was a great experience. Love the movies and culture.

[@ckuz2766]

I bought a VW Ghia in high school a year before Molly had one in Pretty in Pink… Ahead of my time LOL! Seriously love my gen x memories. This is going to be awesome! Thank you Andrew McCarthy ❤
