Devolution here,

80's movies that you haven't seen yet that everyone has told you to see for the longest time.

I am guilty of a few of these.

I have never seen Fraternity Vacation, Tuff Turf, or Modern Girls. I also have never watched the Untouchables from beginning to end.

Some of these replies should be good.

We are DEVO

Of course I love love love "Back To The Future", but have yet to see part 2 or 3, though I own the box set. I've also never seen Electric Dreams or Modern Girls. I've noted before that I own approx 150 (80's) movies on DVD, so consider myself a huge fan of the 80's, however, I only saw "Fast Times At Ridegemont high" less than a month ago. Finally, my most evil crime...I've not seen Valley Girl yet; started watching it about a month ago as well and was only about 15 minutes into it when my son woke up from his nap early....my wife was working and I was pretty sure that my little fella wouldn't sit through Valley Girl....unless I continuously fed him jumbo freezies throughout the whole movie....which I considered for only one second...too much sugar and brain freezes, so I had to shut it of.

Devo, hard to believe no Tuff Turf, or Modern Girls.

I've never seen Mystic Pizza, Space Camp, Princess Academy, Tomboy, Pin, Last House on the Left, Echo Park, Teen Witch, Labyrinth, Flash Gordon and Dogs in Space.

You guys might want to sit down for this one - VALLEY GIRL.

I here all the talk about it and been meaning to see it, but haven't had the time. Please don't be too hard on me. [Wink]

Like not too cool 80'sRocked......like I won't get bummed out.

As a fan of 80's music, you need to give "Valley Girl" a shot fer shur. Don't let the title fool ya it's an awesome movie.

I take it there's all that kind of "bimbo/surfer" talk in it?

I am a huge fan of Cage, so I will eventually watch it. How do you say, fer shur?
 
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
 
Actually, the Val speak is not what you think it will be...they set the tone early and then it just evolves into a great movie. If you're a Nic Cage fan this movie is must.

I should be shot for all the Tom Cruise movies I HAVE watched!
 
Posted by 80'sRocked (Member # 6979) on :
 
I think Cruise is a great actor and I like most of his movies. It's just a shame he turned into a nut job.
 
Posted by NowhereGirl (Member # 465) on :
 
tom cruise is an awesome actor.. he has starred in a lot of movies people like.. (or used to like, it seems).

i've never seen 9 to 5. i tried but my local video store doesn't have it.

I know Jdoc...I knew I'd get hammered for admitting this. I just ordered it today though. When I watch it, I'll let you all know what I think of it.

BTW, like the new graemlins you got.

some of the stuff i've heard about howard the duck over the years may be it's not a case of you feel you should be shot for not watching it more of a case you feel you should be shot after watching it [Big Grin]

I´ve never seen any of the Police Academy movies...
 
Posted by the young warrior (Member # 9554) on :
 
Megaforce I'd say the first 4 I found to be fun especially the original but after that they seemed to loose there way badly,it didn't help the fact the main star steve guttenberg "Mahoney" jumped ship after part 4.

I like Howard The Duck !

There, i said it ! [Big Grin]
 
Posted by Pyro (Member # 7658) on :
 
Considering I have seen most of the well known 80's movies, the ones I haven't seen I don't feel too bad about.
