  • Summary

  • Movie nerd, filmmaker, and anniversary celebrator Mark J. Parker brings a friend on each episode to discuss movies (and sometimes TV shows and music) that are hitting milestone anniversaries of release that month. Think 20th anniversary, 25th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th, 70th, 75th, you get it! They'll dive in together, discussing fun facts, memorable moments, and what makes these movies worth a rewind all these years later. Let's get nostalgic! The podcast logo was originally created by Greg Clements. The theme song is the instrumental version of "Dance This Out" by singer/songwriter Kyle Motsinger and producer Smoke and Mirrors.

    The Breakfast Club (40th anniversary)
    Feb 22 2025
    This episode is serving Brat (Pack)! Movie expert and longtime friend Jackie Renne returns to go back to high school with Mark and celebrate the 40th anniversary of the iconic "rite of passage" film The Breakfast Club from writer, director, and producer John Hughes. Detention never looked this fun or this dramatic! Mark and Jackie had study hall together 20 years ago, but never had detention together, although Jackie explains how she talked her way out of a Saturday like a pro! Plus, they talk about the movie's silly ending (girls, you can do better!) and imagine where the brain, athlete, basket case, princess, and criminal would end up if we ever got a sequel. Plus, fellow 1985 movie Witness gets some love!

They go on a little virtual stroll through mid-90s Vienna to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Richard Linklater's memorable romance Before Sunrise, which kickstarted a beautiful trilogy starring the dynamic duo Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy. "Don't forget: you are stardust!" Plus, Todor explains how he makes his great designs, and highly recommends traveling to another country solo.
