the 80`s

[jamie909]

greatest ever 80`s movie on ch5 what would your number one be

[yummymum]

knobby u dirty dog, bet your one of them old men i see sneaking into them naughty shops!

[dot.hawkes]

probably Lethal Weapon 2, though loads to choose from, Ghostbusters would be second

[dot.hawkes]

Air America too,
Can't stand these so called film critics who were only born in 1999 making analytical statements about the films, really bugs me!!!!!!!!!!!

[badcompany]

at a time filled with fly away flared trousers,concord wings collared shirts knitted cardigans,big bouffont hairstyles and monsterous shoulder pads,it was not a time when anyone took anyone seriously so id say the film ''AIRPLANE'' with lesley nielson! pure comedy gold!

Too many 80's films to mention I'm afraid.
I really cannot pick a favourite one out.
All of the listed 80's films I have mentioned below are so good.
Empire Strikes Back (1980)
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
E.T. The Extra-Terrestia (1982)
Blade Runner (1982)
Return of the Jedi (1983)
Ghostbusters (1984)
The Terminator (1984)
Back to the Future (1985)
The Breakfast Club (1985)
Platoon (1986)
Aliens (1986)
Stand by Me (1987)
Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)
Die Hard (1989)
Out of all these I really do not know which to pick.
Hmmm,perhaps for a really feel good film it has to be

The Breakfast Club ( i think)

Spinal Tap, just ahead of Mad Max 2 and Radio Days. I'm not watching so I don't know if they're on the list.

[jamie909]

as a kid, i`d have to say ghostbusters ------- maybe gremlins------------but i think stand by me had the biggest effect on me

[dot.hawkes]

ooo yes Mad Max 2, saw mad Max when it came out and it was awesomly different

[jno]

didn't much like MM1, a bit nasty, but MM2 was just amazing.

[dot.hawkes]

has dirty dancing been on the list yet?

[imhotep]

Oooh yes,Mad Max 2.Brilliant film!!!!
Here's a cool clip from the chase bit of the film for your enjoyment..........

I don't know if you are still up and about jamie,but I thought you might like this song and film clips of the classic movie Stand By Me.
I loved this film as well.
I find the song by Ben E King very moving,and almost makes a tear in my eye sometimes.
Enjoy........
In fact,I might pick this film instead of The Breakfast Club comment earlier on.
