John Hughes helms this fun 80s flick. We've got a couple of nerds, Gary (Anthony Michael Hall) and Wyatt (Ilan Mitchell-Smith), attending Shermer High School, and they just want to become popular. We know the story. But, did you think Frankenstein would inspire these two to “hack the planet” with their computer and create what they think is the perfect woman, Lisa (Kelly LeBrock)? Well, they do! The plan was simple. They want to shower with a woman, hit the city for drinks and some nightlife, and then they want to party. These two will get exactly what they want, but they are going to be shown some lessons along the way. Do they learn them? Probably not! Wyatt's brother Chet (Bill Paxton) will try to enforce his own rules as well. RTS hangs out at the Kandy Bar and learns about the “family jewels.” La-Mar, Collin and Jeremy take on a Mad Max horde and make sure their party guests have a night to remember. When you are trying to recreate the “science” at home, make sure not to forget the doll. Also, make sure the water isn't running all day while combing your hair.

The Breakfast Club, directed by John Hughes, is a classic teen drama that takes place over the course of a single Saturday detention at Shermer High School. The film follows five students from vastly different social cliques. The five classes include the criminal, the princess, the jock, the nerd and the basket case. Being overseen by an angry Vice Principal, the 5 students start to learn they have more in common than they realize. This week, Rob, Dave and Kurt will dissect the movie and look at all of their favorite parts. They agree, mostly disagree, and probably say several inappropriate things. The film is celebrating its 40 year anniversary and is considered an 80's teen movie classic. The film is known for its iconic moments, including the students' heartfelt confessions, dance sequence, and the famous closing shot of Bender raising his fist in the air. The Breakfast Club captures the complexity of teenage identity and remains a defining film of the 1980s.   Pandora: https://pandora.app.link/iq8iShjXOLb   Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/totally-80s-and-90s-recall/id1662282694    Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/11dk5TUoLUk4euD1Te1EYG?si=b37496eb6e784408    Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1960c8f9-158d-43ac-89a6-d868ea1fe077/totally-80s-and-90s-recall    YouTube Podcasts: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH9lGakNgCDZUkkHMUu88uXYMJu_33Rab&si=xo0EEVJRSwS68mWZ   Contact Us: Website: https://totally80s90srecall.podbean.com/  Email: 80s90srecall@gmail.com LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/80s90srecall

Beyond being in the same class at Shermer High School in Shermer, Illinois, Claire Standish, Andrew Clark, John Bender, Brian Johnson and Allison Reynolds have little in common, and with the exception of Claire and Andrew, do not associate with each other in school. In the simplest and in their own terms, Claire is a princess, Andrew an athlete, John a criminal, Brian a brain, and Allison a basket case. But one other thing they do have in common is a nine-hour detention in the school library together on Saturday, March 24, 1984, under the direction of Richard Vernon, supervising from his office across the hall. Each is required to write a minimum one-thousand-word essay during that time about who they think they are. At the beginning of those nine hours, each, if they were indeed planning on writing that essay, would probably write something close to what the world sees of them, and what they have been brainwashed into believing of themselves. But based on their adventures during those nine hours, they may come to a different opinion of themselves and the other four. - IMDBThe Breakfast Club on IMDBThe Breakfast Club on WikipediaThe Breakfast Club on Rotten TomatoesCheck out our special co host this episode, Cindy, at her Instagram page & be sure to follow her on her Instagram here as well as her other social medias that you can find linked in her profile!If you are new to the podcast then please consider following us on the platform that you love, we can be found most anywhere that you listen to your favorite podcasts.

First was "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" in 2014, and The Breakfast Club was selected in 2016.  First time you saw the movie? Plot:The opening credits ends with a quote from David Bowie: "...and these children that you spit on, as they try to change their worlds, are immune to your consultations. They're quite aware of what they're going through..." A voice over complaining about Saturday school: Shermer High School, Saturday March 24th, 1984. Cars are dropping off the students. Claire complains she has to do saturday school, Brian promises it's the last time, Andrews father tells him he'll loose his scholarship , Allison is dropped off without word and Bender walks in. In the library, they all settle in. Principal Vernon addresses the students, telling them what he expects from their time. Bender starts harassing the other students... Telling Claire, 'you couldn't ignore me if you tried.' They discuss the difference between social clubs and academic clubs... Like math and physics club. They discuss the complexities of wrestling, and rolling on the ground with sweaty men... Sounds familiar. Bender sabotages the library door so that it'll close. Vernon aggressively questions them as to why the door is closed...and they all agree that it just closed. After trying to rig the door open, Bender and Vernon go back and forth, and he keeps adding saturdays. Claire pleads for him to stop. The group is shown wasting time, drawing, paper football, shaking dandruff out of their hair, Brian tucks a boner, and eventually they all fall asleep. Vernon wakes them up for a bathroom trip. Afterwords, Claire describes how her parents use her against each other. Bender continues to antagonize, but they eventually even share names. Bender takes particular interest in Claire, asking how far shes been with a guy. Andrew stops him, and it briefly turns physical and Bender threatens to kill him. A brief conversation with Carl the janitor, a whistle along, and it's lunch. S:-The car claire is dropped off in is John Hughes car-The mom and sister with Brian are Anthony Michael Halls real mom and sister-Anyone ever have saturday school/detention? Any good stories?-Vernon giving Bender 2 months of saturday school... why would he want to be there that many saturdays? Though, he doesn't have a wedding band on. Andrew and Allison go to get drinks, and she finally breaks her silence, saying she drinks vodka. Andrew complains then about being good and wrestling with sweaty dudes...Unlike Tucker. Bender continues to antagonize, eventually outing Brian as a virgin...Claire pulls out sushi for lunch, Andrew has an entire grocery bag full of food, Allison makes some weird, crunchy, sugar sandwich, and Bender goes through Brians lunch the ends with Bender doing an super sarcastic Leave it to Beaver, impression of life at Brians house. Andrew notices Brians reaction and asks about Benders home... Which then gets pretty real. Ending with Andrew questioning the authenticity of his actions, and then shown a cigar burn on his forearm. He storms off, and is reflective. Vernon goes to the lounge, and they all follow Bender to his locker, which no one can explain why... Which we soon find out is weed. As they head back, they are trying to avoid Vernon, and we get the awesome 80's musical montage. (Fire in the twilight) Ending up at a locked gate, stuffing his weed in Brians pants, Bender takes off making a bunch of noise, Vernon following, ending in the gym, giving everyone else time to get back. Vernon gives a very stark view of Benders future...they leave; but in a closet, Vernon threatens Bender, and provides Bender with some perspective, giving him a free shot, which he doesn't take, and he calls him a gutless turd. As Vernon takes a slam, Bender crawls through the ceiling and crashes back to the library, stating he forgot his pencil. As the others cover for Bender, he steals a look and nearly a face-full up Claires skirt. Taking his weed from Brian, the others follow him to the back of the library to smoke. S:-Judd Nelson played this character method and didn't break, even between scenes. John Hughes almost fired him bc of how he treated Molly Ringwald off camera; though she said she was aware and was ok with it.-So Bender can say whatever he wants about anyone else, but then when its about his interpretation of his own home, that's too far? Should we feel bad for him? He's been a shit head the whole time.-What do you think about Bender? Is his life like he says or what? What is he doing today?-First time smoking weed? Brian and Claire are obviously super stoned and being silly. Andrew comes out from hotboxing in a room, and aggressively dances around, ending with screaming and a glass breaking, with Allison watching intently. Carl catches Vernon going through the restricted files. Andrew and Brian chat, and Allison finally joins in, offering that she stole his wallet. Claire and Bender discuss not throwing things away. Allison dumps her purse on the couch, stating shes always "ready to jam" because her home life is unsatisfying. Andrew tries to connect with Allison, who he reads pretty well, and she opens up to him, about her family, asking, "What did they do to you...?" like its something that happens to everyone... Very stark. Vernon and Carl talk, and Carl pegs him precisely. They're sitting in a circle, they go back and forth sharing and asking questions. Allison says she's screwing her therapist, Claire is prodded into answering if shes a virgin.... which she is. This leads to a discussion about how they're bizarre, and Andrew tells why he's in Saturday school...Taping a kids 'buns' together. And he gets very emotional. It impacts them all very deeply. Brian shares how Andrews dads intensity is like his grades, and failing shop. They move on to hidden talents, and Claire puts on lipstick with her cleavage, which Bender mocks, and the others chastise him for going after her... and he shares the differences in their christmases... Smoke up Johnny! They lament, asking if they're going to be like their parents, and Allison states its unavoidable, that when you grow up, your heart dies. Brian asks if they'll still be friends on Monday, and Claire tells them the truth that they wont be friends... they go back and forth about how shitty that is, and Brian shares why hes in Saturday school... because he was going to kill himself with a flair gun. Which they all laugh at. Which then prompts Allison to share that she did nothing to be there, she had nothing better to do. Segue to 80's musical montage. (we are not alone) S:-Any of y'all ever consider running away?-Would you say your bizarre? How so?-Tell zapping the kid in 8th grade story-Originally the dance montage was supposed to ONLY be Molly Ringwald, but she didn't want to do it alone, which then kind of spawned the 80's/Mtv dance montages. Bender is crawling back through the ceiling, Claire convinces Brian that he should write the essay Vernon asked them to write. Claire then takes Allison for a make over. Claire goes into the closet with Bender, as Allison FINALLY gets Andys attention after watching him the WHOLE TIME. Claire kisses Bender, and he offers to be something her parents use against each other. Andy complements Allison, who she states Claire did it. They all walk out together, Andy and Allison kiss, Claire gives Bender one of her diamond earrings, which he made fun of her for earlier. They share a kiss, and she leaves. Bender puts the earring in, and a voice over is heard: (voice over), Bender is shown walking across a field, he throws a fist in the air, freeze frame, and credits roll. S:-Kissing in front of the parents... Is it just me that thinks thats weird? That shit is NOT happening with my daughter. She'll sneak around like God intended. Web: https://theguysreview.simplecast.com/EM: theguysreviewpod@gmail.comIG: @TheGuysReviewPodTW: @The_GuysReviewFB: https://facebook.com/TheGuysReviewPod/

Kids today. First it's pot, then it's telekinesis, and the next thing you know, an abused, introverted rage monster like Carrie White is rampaging all over Shermer High School. This is exactly why you stay away from that Mutant Growth Hormone, young people; try it once, and you could wind up covered in blood and setting towns on fire. Fortunately for Shermer High and it's stellar detention attendance record, a much more positive role model has stepped in to try and calm Carrie down, or failing that, maybe just blow up her head. Enter Matilda Wormwood, precocious child prodigy and fellow proponent of mind over matter. See? You don't need drugs, children. All you have to do is read lots of books and get really smart -- actually, wait, don't do that, either. Sit down and watch TV. Can Matilda stop Carrie's murderous telekinetic wrath? Can we actually kill a six-year-old girl on our show? Can Miles read Dan's mind? And most importantly, can Kit and Liz stop making jokes about menstruation for, like, two seconds?
