Ok, here goes: I am going to put up my top 10 80's movies of all time. Then I hope everyone who is a regular on here will do the same. I'll let it run for a month, then I'll tot up the results, and determine the 100 greatest ever!! It's a big job, but hey, it would be worth it to determine which movie's get the most votes and reach the top amongst the creme de la creme of 80's movie fans we have right here!! So hold on, put on your thinking caps and make no mistakes, cos here we go!!!
My Top Ten Of The 80's
10: The Terminator 9: Uncle Buck 8: Indiana Jones Raiders Of The Lost Ark 7: Ghostbusters 6: Empire Strikes Back 5: Back To The Future 4: The Goonies 3: The Burbs 2: Gremlins 1: Big Trouble In Little China
Remember, you must number them 10to1, so they can be ranked by positon!! Thanks!!

10. Hellraiser 9. The Last Emporer 8. Phantasm II 7. Razorback 6. The Shining 5. Labyrinth 4. Once Upon A Time In America 3. The Karate Kid, Part III 2. The Karate Kid, Part II 1. The Karate Kid

This was hard... 10-The Breakfast Club 9-Tootsie 8-An Officer and a Gentleman 7-Pee Wee's Big Adventure 6-Urban Cowboy 5-The Lost Boys 4-The Shining 3-Blade Runner 2-Little Darlings 1-Fast Times at Ridgemont High
My criteria: I tried to pick 1 from every genre and also the ones that I thought represented the 80's the most. I also factored in the 'repeat viewing' factor, meaning if I'm flipping through the channels and happen to find one of these on, I will watch it until it is over EVERY time.

Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on 26 November, 2008 07:16:
Jack hasn't seen "Valley Girl" if I understood correctly.
Actually, when we do these polls the majority of the votes for "Valley Girl" come from the US and Canada. Outside of that area most of the people are puzzled by its popularity and you'd be shocked by how many Europeans have never even seen it.
Posted by Mr. Jack Burton (Member # 4673) on 26 November, 2008 07:30:
Valley Girl is the one in the top 10 I haven't seen. I will buy it before Christmas for sure. It looks like a good watch.
Thanks to all you guys who voted and big thanks for all your kind praise. I slept like the dead last night!! My polling days are over!!! No wonder Bush won Florida!!! Posted by TKO (Member # 1471) on 26 November, 2008 07:46:
Nice job indeed.
The only real surprise to me is that Razorback made it into this top 100. It’s a nice surprise though, cause I really liked it myself. But I don’t remember this movie ever being discussed here.
