Retro Wednesdays are here in Raleigh, NC--that's right..a locally owned movie theater shows older movies each month (on Wednesdays) and this month's feature is

"Don't you forget about me, i'll the one dancing you know it baby..."

The Breakfast Club one of the better teen movies of the 1980's IMHO.

I'm so glad that it's being shown on the big screen...I wasn't old enough to see it when it came out and now i'm taking that opportunity.

That's one of those I keep telling myself I really need to watch...and then never do.

it's a very good movie...reminds me of today's youth where kids are so mean to ones who are considered "different"..you know what I mean?

Well you can always rent it :) But seeing it on the big screen is really cool too :) You never know though.

Awesome film. Terrific cast. Great score. Even though it's set in the early 1980's, it just doesn't feel dated (except for Molly Ringwald's wardrobe). Those "kids" still exist in high schools today.

Yes it is a very powerful movie...great cast, setting :) And you would think with them in detention all day you'd get bored watching it but you don't.

I love it when they're up in the ceiling :) hilarious stuff.

It's a cleverly written, timeless, classic. Love it.

That would be so cool to see that on the big screen again. I love that movie. I think I know the dialogue word for word.

Great movie. Funny how sushi seemed so exotic back then. Now you can find it next to the deli counter.

I love that movie though I've never seen it on the big screen. Classic 80's movie with the classic 80's cast.

I :heart: Judd Nelson. :)

I had such a crush on Judd Nelson after that movie. I loved him, huge nostrils and all.
