Favourite 80s films?????

[onebadbaby]

Beaches is on film 4 right now- love it! Remind me of other great films from the 80s I've forgotten!

Did anyone else prefer Ducky?!

No!

I totally dont now!!

Caz, yes I preferred Ducky! DC's can't believe it's the same person from two and a half men!

Nobody has mentioned:

Flight of the Navigator
The Boy Who Could Fly

Loved all the ones already mentioned too, was a mahousive fan of Michael J Fox! Also loved the Superman films, although they started in the 70s. I think 3 or 4 was in the 80s?

I'm currently 'resting' for 6 weeks after major abdominal surgery - you've all provided me with my film list to keep me occupied, thank you!!

Flight of the navigator was awesome!
My favourite film is The Princess Bride

Another vote for Princess Bride - an all time classic, endlessly quotable!

As well as all the fabulous John Hughes movie already mentioned, there's also -

Hotel New Hampshire &

The Sure Thing - John Cusak is amazing in it. And there's a VERY young Nicolette Sheridan (Desperate Housewives) in it too.

Best era for films, without a doubt x

Witness (went with a very strict Christian friend who declared Harrison should have slept with Amish lady
True Stories (went with very fat friend who said is was best film ever)

American Gigolo

Has anyone mentioned Flashdance?

Pretty in Pink (and yes I was thinking about this the other day - it was Ducky all the way for me!)

The Cotton Club

Batteries Not Included

The Untouchables

Cocoon

Uncle Buck

Was Top Gun the 80's. Love the volleyball scene.

Also love An Officer and a Gentleman. Can't beat a man in uniform
