Your favorite movie of the 80s?

W. T. F.!

W.T.F.! is right. Ziggy Stardust?!?! And it looks like, by the associated videos, a young Jennifer Connelly. I might just have to watch this now.

I've seen this list on FB several times in the last few days. How many of these films have you seen? I've seen 73.25 - I've never heard of Labyrinth before, and I've seen bits and pieces of the Ninja Turtle movie on cable over the years, but have never watched it for more than 5 minutes in a row.

What list? Your link refers back to your post.

Weird. CS is doing strange stuff for me today. I can't edit anything, and several posts seem to be missing whole paragraphs, when I look at them.

How have you seen 73.25? I've got 64, but I thought this was a list of 80s movies. There's a bunch of 90s in there.

Oh .25 is for Ninja Turtles?

The weekly 80s movie thread...didn't see this coming!

Can't pick one. Really like: Blade Runner, Terminator, Raging Bull, Amadeus, The Shining, Back to the Future, Raising Arizona, Blood Simple, Fast Times, Scarface, Spinal Tap, Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, Big Trouble in Little China, Ferris, Better Off Dead, The Goonies, Beetlejuice, A Christmas Story, Spaceballs, Pink Floyd: The Wall, Batman, The Naked Gun, etc.

And there's probably a whole bunch more I'm forgetting.

EDIT: On sheer number of views, Big Trouble in Little China, The Last Dragon, and Troop Beverly Hills would definitely lead the pack

Seriously?

Watched it like just a month ago. When it's the favorite movie of both your sisters growing up and now your wife, you tend to see it a few times.

It's been a staple in our house for the last month or so, too. My wife loves it and our daughter just started girl scouts.

You married one of your sisters? :yikes:

Don't judge.

Don't judge.

Exactly, because he did as well. I know he pays attention to the lessons at church.

IMO, no list of 1980s movies is compete without mentioning Risky Business. Watching A Christmas Story every holiday season is a family tradition.

Here is a better list, of the 50 most popular films released in the 80s from IMDB. I've seen 49/50, freaking David Bowie thwarts me AGAIN

Edit: It shows the next 50 on page 2. Of the top 100, I've seen 97. I've never seen Labryinth, My Neighbor Totoro, or Brazil
