Ok, when I think about this topic as I listen to the you tube link of Van Stephenson's No Secret.....my first choice would have to be Secret Admirer. I also just recently watched The Allnighter again, absolutely love that one. I would also have to say Dazed and Confused, even though it is from 1993.

What movies do you like to watch again at the end of the school year???

Basically Jessie anything lightweight and feel good,something that would probably put me in a good mood after watching it.


Here's a few random ones of my shelf's that I'd probably give a go -

Well I too have to put a non 80's vote in for Dazed and Confused. That is the movie I always think of for an end of the school year, start of summer movie. Ok, back on track.

I vote for Fast Times and Can't Buy Me Love. I know they take place through the whole school year, but they end at the end of the year, so they seem fitting.

Fast Times, Dazed and Confused, any of those cheesy summer "Bikini" movies, like Malibu Bikini Shop.

Never heard of Gotcha before. Is it worth a watch
 
Posted by the young warrior (Member # 9554) on :
 
Yeah definitely Blake,I like it anyway,i think it's a lot of fun

It's directed by jeff kanew who made revenge of the nerds which is also good fun if you've never seen it and is filmed mostly in Berlin Germany which makes for bit of a different location.


https://youtu.be/wYWwOV0Q2nY - here's the trailer for it.

Will have to watch it. I can't believe I haven't heard of it I'm normally good at remembering 80s flicks this one must of passed me by

I second that on Gotcha, especially if you like Linda Fiorentino. The copy I have went kaput just the other day. Bummed me out. Hope to find another.
 
Posted by Bernie_Lomax (Member # 8571) on :
 
Gotcha is a really fun movie. Always liked it. Fiorentino is nice too [Big Grin]

What about High School U.S.A.?
 
Posted by Bernie_Lomax (Member # 8571) on :
 
I am pretty sure the blonde girl (Teresa Palmer) in Take Me Home tonight is from my home town of Adelaide, South Australia.
 
Posted by the young warrior (Member # 9554) on :
 
Yeah she is from Adelaide Bernie,very pretty and she was likeable in take me home tonight.

Don't think I've seen her in anything else though,it said on her profile she used to date her take me home tonight co star topher grace and then later on she also dated brit comedian russell brand.
 
Posted by Bernie_Lomax (Member # 8571) on :
 
She is certainly nice to look at and likeable as you say.

Russel Brand.....yeesh...she must have been desperate [Big Grin]

With all the schools out it really makes me want to watch some high school flicks.
Current cravings are
Just One of the Guys
Karate Kid

Anyone else?
 
Posted by Pyro (Member # 7658) on :
 
Just One Of The Guys would certainly be on my watch list. Just watched that one again recently in fact, and still enjoy it.
 
Posted by TerdNthePoolGGB (Member # 9818) on :
 
Its a good one Pyro but how bout Just one of the girls with Corey Haim. I haven't seen it in forever and I'm thinking it was pretty bad.
