I was just wondering how many classic 80's movies do you own. I've went ahead and given you my list.
1:One Crazy Summer 2:Porky's 3:The Lost Boys 4:The Last Starfighter 5:Sixteen Candles 6:She's Having A Baby 7:Little Monsters 8:The Breakfast Club 9:St.Elmo's Fire 10:Ski Patrol 11:Monster Squad 12:Walk Like A Man 13:Revenge Of The Nerds 14:Revenge Of The Nerds II 15:The Princess Bride
I'm pretty sure that's it for now.
-Thank You

Devolution here,
I'm pretty sure many of us have most of these movies, but what you should post are movies that you have that people might not be able to get. You have on your list "Walk like a man" a great movie, I believe with Howie Mandel. The rest of them are fairly commonplace, not that there is anything wrong with that, but most of us will list these without problem.
For instance I have, Hamburger the motion picture, Three O'Clock High, Rad, Meatballs 3, Morgan Stewarts Coming Home, Night Patrol, A Night in the life of Jimmy Reardon, White Water Summer
There are some more, but these are the types that you should be posting, it's cool that you have the other ones, but many of us are looking for the movies that people can't get.

OH my, I will really have to think on this one:
Sixteen Candles The Breakfast Club Secret Admirerer The Allnighter About Last Night... St. Elmo's Fire Clue Blind Date Fire with Fire Once Bitten Weird Science Adventures in Babysitting The Goonies Just One of the Guys Making Mr. Right Valley Girl Can't Buy Me Love Girls Just Want to Have Fun
These are the ones that I can think of right off.

The three I have that are either (a) not mentioned that much or (b) tough to find (especially here in the UK) are
Dreamscape
Electric Dreams
Streets Of Fire
Although there are also some great early 90s movies that would be on anybody's "honorary 80s" list:
Joe Vs The Volcano
The Pope Must Die
Delirious (starring John Candy)
Pump Up The Volume
All of these are worthy of a mention.
What's on my hit list? Clue (on it's way on DVD finally) and High Road To China, with Tom Selleck.

just off the top of my head, the only rare ones I can think of are The Mosquito Coast and Lady Jane(w/ Helena Bonham Carter and Cary Elwes).

The Wraith License to Drive(not legit DVD I know) Night Of The Comet(See above) Remo Williams I have couple others as well that I cant to think of right now.
Devo, you are indeed a true man. Im not sure too many people even know there was a Meatballs 3, let alone admit to owning it! Paul, Im jealous, Id like to add Dreamscape and Streets Of Fire to my collection. Just never think of them when Im looking for new ones. Posted by Riptide (Member # 457) on :
I try to find as many 80's movies as I can. These are ones that I would like to own.
Rad Monster Squad Student Bodies Screwballs Moving Violations Thunder Alley Fire on Fire Joy of Sex the Party Animal Hot Chili (OK, I just rented it, does that count?) Give me an F Spring Break Zapped Quarterback Princess

Devo, Clue finally got released over here November 3rd. As with loads of stuff you guys take for granted, over in the Old Country we've either got to wait for it to appear on TV (once in a blue moon) or wait, and suffer you guys telling us how you ran it again last night......

Devolution here,
Hey Paul, I don't know what to tell you. I have been over to the UK only once. I was a chaperone to a london trip with my school back in 2001. I was happy that I got my hands on some Madness CD's though, it's not easy to come by around here. But as for the movies, Clue, or otherwise, it stinks that we get some movies first. I mean I love the fact that I have had some of these movies for so long, but the fact is that I don't know why it takes so long for the movies to get released over there.
Movie Appreciation is an art form. I wonder if I can get my 2nd masters in 80's culture.

I guess with the internet these days and the chance to order from anywhere, there's no real reason for delaying the release of anything - dvd or cd. Some of the US sites I've looked at only ship to the US, so I haven't been able to get it till now.
Also, some music tends to be more centered on particular countries (Madness is a case in point). Still, if there's stuff you can't find and want that's on release over here, just let us know. I can try to source it for you (or at least provide a UK mailing address) so you can enjoy 80s British Music at it's best.
