    This is an 80s kids movie. And 80s kids bands. Or more specifically, 80s teens stuff.

    I was born in the 80s, and I think I watched this movie once but it was definitely less a part of my cultural upbringing than OG power rangers and Ace of Base, lol.

      Came to say this. Breakfast Club released in 1985.

      I am a 53 year old gen X born in the 60’s. This film is of my generation’s culture, not someone born in the 90’s.

      Yeah. I was born in the 80s and only knowingly watched this like 5 years ago. If I saw it when it was relevant, I was too young to remember.

      like everyone else I came to say this is from the 80’s. I see a lot of this though. Bleed from one decade to another and in tv shows depicting the decades so of course folks not around think its accurate.
