As a tribute to [classic 80s movies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightup-delorean-popcorn), Ian Glaubinger has decided to bring these iconic films back as a part of a [nutritious breakfast](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-cerealsly-delicious-series-by-salt-straw).

Ian Glaubinger has designed [cereal boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chex-x-peanuts-holiday-boxes) with images of old favorites that are sure to bring nostalgia back to the table. The movies he's depicted as cereals so far are Gremlins, Back to the Future, Ghostbusters and The Goonies. As much as I hate to remind everyone, these aren't real, so you won't be getting to eat Gizmo-shaped wheat treats anytime soon.

I'd love to see if Ian Glaubinger will add more to the mix. Ferris Bueller cereal, anyone? Most think of him as a righteous dude, after all.
