When I was a kid it was : Bonnie and Clyde The Great Escape The Longest Day Planet of the Apes Goldfinger From Russia with Love Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid Psycho The Birds To Kill a Mockingbird Easy Rider The Good, The Bad and the Ugly The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance The Hustler and a bunch more
When I saw the title, Goonies was the first movie that popped into my head. I don't know how many times I watched it back then. I bet if I watched it now I would think its terrible. Some of the movies mentioned takes me back. Summer School was the first movie I saw in a theater. Caddyshack is still one of my all time favorites. I remember finally seeing the original (vs. the edited for television) when I was in high school. It was like seeing it for the first time again...but with boobs.
Every time Mike Willand calls me the Top Gun theme plays on my phone. Possibly the greatest 80's movie of all time.
Nah, Goonies holds up surprisingly well unlike most 80s movies. I'll add: Ghostbusters Big E.T. Raiders of the Lost Ark Return of the Jedi
a lot of great movies in the 80's... Die Hard, Raging Bull, Platoon, one of the greatest sci-fi films of all time BladeRunner, then toss in a couple of the greatest comedies of all time like Airplane!, The Naked Gun, Fish called Wanda, Planes, trains and automobiles.... a great time for cinema
What about awesome B movies like "I Come In Peace" and "Best of the Best" and of course "Best of the Best 2". Dolph! Eric Roberts rocks.
can i go one year back the "The Warriors"? how about labyrinth all the back to the futures officer and a gentleman american flyer bill and teds excellent adventure crossroads (steve vai and ry cooder? yes please) evil dead series day of the dead HELLRAISER.... just amazing the lost boys the outsiders poltergeist scarface spinaltap! young guns UHF little shop of horrors Who framed roger rabbit stand by me legand the last star fighter
Alien says I come in piece...Dolph drops "his" greatest line in movie history "and you go in pieces @$$hole".
I have to agree with everyone in the fact that the 80's appear to be the greatest movie decade of all time...Stand by me taught me how to cuss properly. So many great one already listed Rainman Platoon The Outsiders (cast full of future stars) Teen Wolf Revenge Of the Nerds Hoisers Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure Young Guns Bull Durham Ghostbusters Blood in Blood out
Hoosiers another classic. "Look, mister, there's... two kinds of dumb, uh... guy that gets naked and runs out in the snow and barks at the moon, and, uh, guy who does the same thing in my living room. First one don't matter, the second one you're kinda forced to deal with. "
Top gun is my all time favorite movie. In my next life I'm coming back as a FIGHTER PILOT. And the music wasn't bad either.
