At least two interesting things about June of 1986…

The first interesting thing, it was the month that the iconic school comedy Ferris Bueller’s Day Off had its theatrical release.  June 2025 is the first month after the Class of 2025 graduated from high school, a class of students that started kindergarten in 2012. 

The year before in 2011, some interesting coincidences happened on the 25^th anniversary of 1986…

• NASA’s final flights of all three of the remaining Space Shuttles in 2011…25 years after the Challenger disaster in 1986. 
• After a massive 9.0 magnitude earthquake, followed by a deadly and destructive tsunami, Japan suffered a level 5 nuclear power plant disaster in 2011…25 years after the Chernobyl level 5 nuclear power plant disaster in 1986. 
• The Oprah Winfrey Show ended in 2011, 25 years after it started in 1986. 
• In 2011, a 25 year-old fiancée second guessed her decision to get married to the founder of a magazine that had published a short story that turned into a movie from the 1950’s called The Fly.  In the 1986 remake, there is a nightmare birthing scene that may or may not have had an effect on her decision.  Or in other words, the 25 year-old fiancée called off their wedding in 2011, 25 years after the nightmare birthing scene from the 1986 remake The Fly.

So after these coincidences involving 1986 & its 25^th anniversary in 2011, a class of students started kindergarten the following year in 2012…then went all the way through grade school, then middle school, and then high school.

The 2^nd interesting thing about June of 1986…it was the month between the release dates of two different failed sequels that attacked God.  The sequel released just before June 1986 follows a movie that ends with a family checking into a motel room.  The sequel released just after June 1986 follows a 1960 classic with a plot development structured around a character checking into a motel room.  This points to the end of the other movie, an ending that could play a key role in improving our society.  A call to action.

So I guess June 2025 is as good of a time as any to heed this call to action.

So allow me to summarize what I’ve just stated…

June 1986…saw the theatrical release of an iconic school comedy.  An entire class of students that just graduated from high school had started kindergarten in 2012.  The year before, 2011 saw several compelling coincidences with the year 1986 from 25 years before.

June 1986…came between the release dates of two failed sequels that attacked God.  Sequels to two movies with critical scenes involving people checking into a motel room.  Critical to the plot of one movie, critical to society in the other movie.  A call to action that could seriously improve society.
