  8. Planes trains and automobiles!

  9. The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. It is the most 80s of all 80s movies and the fact it never produced a franchise makes us all lessor.

  10. Seems Like Old Times.

    Marvin Hamlish did the musical score.

  11. @Zebra Seasoning - :)

    It's such a beautiful movie to watch, and the performances are excellent. And I LOVE hearing Fernandez singing The Wally.

  12. How is Breakfast Club problematic? Good lord.

    Probably Sixteen Candles or Pretty in Pink. I loved them so much! I wanted to be a teen in the 80’s so bad 🥺 And you cant beat the term “oily bohunk”.

  14. Raising Arizona.
    I love the scene with the family selfie
    The sad a disappointed look that Cage gives the supermarket worker who has just tried to shoot him with a shotgun makes me laugh out loud every single time.

  23. I believe it was titles Marilyn Chambers' Private Fantasies Vol 1. The scene where she is in a cheerleader outfit, sans panties, on top of the soda shop counter, and a gentleman is digging maraschino cherries out of her anus was a cinematic masterpiece.

  31. Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins

    Now this movie should have spawned a franchise or at least a made for TV series. It would have been cheap to make and better than most 80s TV shows.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Too many to choose just one: Top Gun, When Harry Met Sally, ET, Rainman, Breakfast Club, I really could go on....

    I didn't go to movies in the 80s.

  36. Platoon is a masterpiece. Hollywood was rewriting the Vietnam war by giving money to people that were never in the war, like Sylvester Stallone. Oliver Stone was there, his knowledge of the actual facts of that war made all the difference in that movie.

    Too bad Oliver Stone ruined his own career w/ #metoo and kissing the backside of dictators like Putin.

  59. What happened to creativity in the movies? Is it just thinking the past was better and there are just as many good films today but I am just not seeing them? Or did the accountants take over and ruin everything? What modern movies will you stop and watch even though it is already half over when flicking through the channels?

    ReplyDelete
