Episode description

The Back To The Blockbuster team takes it back to the class of 1998 by revisiting the late 90s teen classic, Can’t Hardly Wait, for its 25th anniversary. No anniversary from the late 90s is complete without our boy Mark J. Parker from the Release Date Rewind podcast and that’s why he’s joining the team on this trip back to the last great high school party for the class of 98. Written and directed by Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont, the film stars Ethan Embry, Charlie Korsmo, Lauren Ambrose, Peter Facinelli, Seth Green, Jennifer Love Hewiit, and a slew of other actors from the teen movie movement that appear in very fun cameo roles. The story takes place at a high school graduation party and consists of interconnecting stories that result in various angsty developments. This is a first time watch for Jackson so he’s approaching it from a very fresh perspective while Mark and Gaius look back on seeing the the film for the first time in 1998, its relevance at the time of its release, why it didn’t turn into a big hit in theaters but ultimately became a huge cult favorite that still endures today.
