The Definitive 80's Movie Collection

I love movies, classics, romantic comedies, sci-fi, you name it! Here's a list of some of my favs from the 80's that you should check out.

The Princess Bride

This is one of my all time favs. It is as heartwarming as it is hysterical! A must watch.
0

Say Anything

John Cusack is outstanding in this, plus, great 80's soundtrack.
0

Ferris Bueller's Day Off

SAVE FERRIS!!! Nuf said, except I have wanted to find a parade that I could crash and lip sync an old toon ever since I saw this ;)
0

E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial - Anniversary Edition (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Copy + UltraViolet) by Universal Studios

E.T. was such a great movie, even with all of the Reese's product placements. Time to phone home!

Top Gun: 30th Anniversary Steelbook (Limited Edition) [Blu-ray]

Yea, it's a little corny, but if you haven't seen it or haven't seen it in a while, trust me, it will be 2 hours well spent.
0

Heathers

This is a pretty dark comedy but the cast and writing are outstanding.
0

Splash (20th Anniversary Edition)

Slash will make you smile, worth a watch.
0

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (Theatrical Version)

The 3rd of the original trilogy. Not as good as the first but better than Empire Strikes Back in my opinion.
0

Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventures (Raiders of the Lost Ark / Temple of Doom / Last Crusade / Kingdom of the Crystal...

Honestly, I could do without Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (which din't come out in the 80's anyway), but the other 2 are outstanding and it seemed easier to add the trilogy then. Also, Temple of Doom, while released in the 80's, was a waste of my time, don't bother with it.
0

The Breakfast Club

Just ... watch.
0

Back to the Future Trilogy [Blu-ray]

I STILL want my hoverboard :(
0

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan - Director's Cut

KHAN!!!!!!

Platoon Blu-ray

Features Charlie Sheen (before he went off the deep end) and an OUTSTANDING performance by WIllim Dafoe. A must see.
0

Who Framed Roger Rabbit: 25th Anniversary Edition (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo in Blu-ray Packaging)

I could watch this again and again.
0

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure

Bill & Ted are literally the definition of 80's culture.
0

Desperately Seeking Susan

Rosanna Arquette and Madon team up in a bazar tale of amnesia and mistaken identity, in 1980's New York.
0

Poltergeist

I'm including this because it is certainly worthy of being called one of the defining movies of the time but I will NEVER watch it again, I'm still a little freaked just thinking about it.
0

Flashdance

She's a welder by day and a dancer by night?? Sounds like Pittsburgh to me!
0

Bill Murray! Who ya gonna call!!
0

Risky Business (25th Anniversary Edition)

This Tom Cruise blockbuster show's you what legalized marijuana will do to your Porsche.

Steve Martin is great, plot is a modern adaptation of Cyrano De Bergerac.

0

Glory [Blu-ray]

0

Moonstruck (Deluxe Edition)

I'm not a fan of Cher but she is awesome in this movie as is Nicolas Cage. Olympia Dukakis has some incredible, scene stealing one liners as well.
0

The Big Chill (15th Anniversary Collector's Edition)

This is the 80's. All star cast with an amazing soundtrack and story line.
0

Caddyshack

After you watch this, you will randomly start laughing, quoting lines from the movie, think of learning how to play golf and speak like Bill Murray. The one thing you cannot do is consider, even for one moment, watching the sequel.
