Demi and Rob easily the 2 of the group that became the biggest stars in Hollywood from the Brat Pack, and you'd think would've been the hardest to get to agree to do this low budget indy documentary.

But no Judd Nelson who isn't doing jack shit or hasn't been in anything of note since the 80's is the white whale that was unattainable lol, And Molly Ringwald who is basically a supporting character on tv shows now refused as if this was bringing up traumatic memories for her or something, even though she has done tons of reunions with the cast and talked about those days plenty.

They even got fucking Emilio Estevez who has famously refused to do interviews or ever talk about any of his movies from the Brat Pack era. If you was to ask who you would not expect to see in this the main 3 would be Emilio, Demi Moore and Rob Lowe, its kinda shocking they got all 3 of them and Judd Nelson was the mysterious white whale that called at the very end as surprise.

I'm watching this and thinking the same exact thing. I was just saying that out loud to my wife. What the hell is Molly and Judd doing that is so damn important. They've literally done nothing since the breakfast club and are key members of the brat pack. Why not come on and tell your story. I could see some of the other big stars like Cruise and Downey and Cusak not being gone this, but come on!!! And where the heck is Anthony Michael Hall?

Both Judd Nelson & Molly Ringwald wish to distance themselves from those films. Judd Nelson never made that call at the end. That was fake.

Then why have they been to cons and reunions discussing those films in recent years?

I finally got to watch this last night. I enjoyed it, but thought the same thing. They should have included all of the actors/actresses and had like a "round-table discussion" with all of them. Make it a relaxed atmosphere and see where the conversations go...I would have enjoyed that more than what we got.
