Best 1980's Movies

[Acim]

(psssst, Acim, you forgot the Road Warrior, man. Just trying to save you some embarrassment here)

As I said in OP, too many to list. Road Warrior didn't occur to me, but I would've left it off this first list. Only reason I put in "Clash of the Titans" is because I saw it the day of the poll. Then caught some of "Big" and said, 'hey, I should do a poll on RF." So far Clash has gotten 0 votes. Maybe "Road Warrior" could've gone there.

Amadeus did occur to me and was one of 5 near the end that I cut from list. I very much like that film.

It's good to see that I'm not the only one to have voted for the film I mentioned in OP as being in my top 5 of all time. Guesses for that are still welcomed.

 

[Magic Man]

Yes, but it's still one of the best movies of the 80's. It's that good.

I can't argue with that. It is in my top 10 of all time.

Say Anything is my favorite 80s movie.

I loved Labrynth with David Bowie.

I selected The Breakfast Club.

 

[The Sum of Awe]

I love too many you listed, I cannot vote.

 

[Kathryn]

Oh, you left off An Officer and a Gentleman! And Terms of Endearment. And Ordinary People. And Taps. And 9 to 5.

And Planes, Trains, and Automobiles!

 

[Revoltingest]

How could this be left off the list?

Not on the list but Ferris Bueller's Day Off & EThttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091042/

Stand By Me is one of my favourite movies but isn't on there.

Though Star Wars wins for me by a mile. When was younger used to be able to quote pretty much all of the films.

Oh man, I LOVE PeeWee's Big Adventure!

"And when they pulled the body from the burning rubble...it looked like....THIS!"

Shocked to see the inclusion of Clash of the Titans as a candidate.
