Whoops! I saw that, but stupidly just checked out the first "Fortress" on Google and saw the Christopher Lambert movie. Now I see what she meant! Thanks. I wonder why that film stuck with me too

Sorry Jaylee. Quicksilver is great in my opinion. Probably because I was really into bike stunts as a kid, as well as skateboarding. That's why I can't really label a movie "bad". Sure there are films I hate, but they are probably other people's favorites.

I love Dirty Dancing. It's one of my all-time favorite movies. Ferris Bueller's Day off was one of my favs. too. I really liked Footloose and I haven't seen St.Elmo's Fire yet- but I want to. The Karate Kid was okay. I guess I probably would have not liked it if I hadn't of seen Ralph Machio for the first time in The Outsiders. I love that movie and i had never heard of Ralph Machio before that. My least favorite 80s movie is definately Labyrinth. Hated it with a passion. I ended up giving it away.

The Doll Maker, made for TV, starring Jane Fonda.
Also, A Cry For Help: The Tracey Thurman Story, made for TV, starring Nancy McKeon.
Because of these two films, I avoid trainyards at all costs, and cannot watch Facts Of Life reruns without remembering "Jo" getting the crap kicked out of her by her abusive onscreen ex-husband.

I agree with the people who didn't like Dirty Dancing, but I probably can't remember many of the 80's movies I DIDN'T like because I never watched them again. On the other hand, I watched the ones I DID like over and over again.
I remember not liking Def Con 4 that much. I wasn't crazy about Karate Kid 2 or 3. The Boy Who Could Fly bored the crap out of me. I didn't like Arthur but I liked the sequel.

I don't think i liked Labrynth that much because it just wasn't believable and the whole 'goblin' thing was just kinda weird.

I can't stand Vampre's Kiss w/Nicolas Cage. I watched it when it came out because I liked him and horror movies. It was like they couldn't decide if it was horror or comedy and they didn't do justice to each genre. As a vampire he was just a disgusting slob, I watched it recently just to see if it was half as bad, it was and then some.

I liked Labyrinth much more as a kid. I watched it again recently and it really didn't appeal to me like it used to.

I totally changed my mind on Blade Runner when I watched The Final Cut version the other year Posts: 4057 | From: uk | Registered: May 2007 | Site Updates: 0

Found Blade Runner to be boring..I think it was the original version. Should it be given a second chance Helen S?

I'd have to go with Sandler's Overboard; 90 minutes of torture with no actual story and no attempt to actually be funny.

I think you may be right Chris. Going Overboard was definitely horrible.

GHOSTBUSTERS was over rated as well as Breakfast Club (but I did find that Ally Sheedy was very mysterious looking in a totally Hot kinda way) TOP GUN was a chick flick to me and all it was good for was Home theatre salesmen to sell speakers by showing the same jet scenes over and over.
But. If you Don't like CADDYSHACK or POLICE ACADEMY then I'm sorry, We can't be friends...
