80s movies... Teen Witch, Breakfast Club, 16 candles, Goonies, Weird Science, Ferris Buller's day off, Dirty Dancing, The never-ending story, Princess Bride, Twins. omg so many great movies.
Back to the Future, Footloose, Sixteen Candles, the Breakfast Club, Top Gun, Animal House, Revenge of the Nerds, Pretty in Pink, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, All the Right Moves, Howard the Duck, Stand By Me, Porky’s, Spaceballs, Real Genius, The Goonies, Trading Places, Batman, Better Off Dead, Say Anything, One Crazy Summer,
As a person born in 74, I kind of understand what Joe means. The first movie I definitely remember seeing in the theater was Return of the Jedi in 1983 when I was 8 years old.
Killer Klowns from Outer Space!!!!! Man it frightened me so much as a child. Need to have an entire episode dedicated to 80’s Horror! And not just the mainstream ones either but some of the niche ones like Killer Klowns.
Comedy Tom Hanks 'Bachelor Party'. "Let's have a bachelor party with chicks and guns and fire trucks and hookers and drugs and booze!" Obscure Eddie Murphy 'The Golden Child'. "I want the knife. Please." Underrated Buddy Cops 'Running Scared'. "Deceleration trauma. Cement poisoning." Fall of the Iron Curtain foreshadowing 'White Nights' 'Blade Runner' wins.
I’m surprised no one brought up Hellraiser, Critters, Ghoulies, Weird Science, Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, Revenge of the Nerds, and real niche Porky’s and Meatballs.
I'm with Jayse on this. Name my #1 singular top of the pile favorite 80s movie? Don't make me choose. Between Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Space Balls, Stand By Me, Breakfast Club, Back to the Future, Labyrinth, Lost Boys, Willow, Highlander, Neverending Story, The Last Unicorn, Footloose, The Karate Kid, Trains, Plains, and Automobiles, They Live, Police Academy....
I thoroughly empathize with Jayce, there is no way I would be able to narrow my list down to 3! The longer I think about it, the more movies get added on!
I posted something a week or so ago about the range of reactors you have at the moment and this is a prime example of my meaning. In a podcast about 80's movies you don't have a single GenX reactor, who actually llived through it at an age to really experience these movies. So my question is, what gives? I know we're sometimes refered to as the Forgotten Generation but you used to have quite a few older reactors. Either way, I really enjoyed the discussion and would like to recommend some films that weren't mentioned... Stripes, Ladyhawke, Blade Runner, Amadeus, Full Metal Jacket, The Blues Brothers, The Elephant Man, Repo Man, Brazil and Police Academy.
Eddie and the Cruisers!! The Land Before Time! Weekend At Bernie’s! Willow! Short Circuit! The Shining! The Brave Little Toaster! So many great movies!
My favorite movie of all time is The Outsiders! Then like Jayse my other picks would be Heathers, Some kind of Wonderful, Dream a little dream, Pretty in pink, but I also loved Cobra and Predator,Die Hard,The Burbs and The lost boys The 80’s were the best ever.
I was born in 71 and there are SO MANY movies that I could name here that didn't get mentioned and that have a special place in my heart... movies like Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The 'Burbs, Re-Animator, Summer School, The Money Pit, Bachelor Party, Planes Trains & Automobiles, Pretty in Pink, Weekend at Bernie's, The Gate, The Keep, Night of the Creeps, The Blob, Hellraiser, Legend, Lifeforce, Videodrome, House 1+2, Night of the Living Dead (Remake), The Last Starfighter, Buckaroo Banzai, Explorers, Escape from New York, The Fog and so many more.
Real Genius is a hilarious and funny movie. Tom Hanks was in his early 30’s in Big. Some of my favorite 80’s movies are Platoon, born on the 4th of July, the Outsiders, Solar Babies, Dead Poets Society, the lost boys, the goonies, weird science, ghostbusters, stand by me, and bill and Ted’s excellent adventure, Young Guns.
The guys nailed it on the first movies. Both are great choices. Ladies, I'm questioning your involvement in an 80s movie podcast not knowing those two. Especially not knowing Val Kilmer. 7:50
Ok Jayce makes so much sense to me now. That’s my dude. But everyone’s stock has gone way up. Beetlejuice is one of my all time favs, mannequin is peak 80’s, The Last Dragon?! Let’s Go!!
This was a fun episode Beba was SAVAGE in this one Sabrina was gorgeous and extra points for liking Horror Extra extra points for Beetlejuice Jayse and Joe were always cool Thanks for the laughs
Pumpkinhead, The Thing, Killer Klowns of Outer Space, Neverending Story, E.T., Labyrinth, Adventures of Babysitting, Mannequin, Heathers, etc. I could go on forever honestly with every genre. Best era by far
All of the Indiana Jones and anything by John Hughes! But also a super weird one, thought of this one after remembering Big Trouble in Little China…Howard the Duck 😂and also War Games!
I'm proud to say I've been to a drive-in movie theater! It was one the last times I visited my aunt and uncle when they lived in Bakersfield. I was about 12-years-old at the time. It was a double-feature of Escape from New York and Escape from L.A. We laid down in the back of my uncle's pick-up, and as a result, I eventually fell asleep. It's a fond memory I'll never forget.
*the twilight zone movie, flight of the navigator, willow, neverending story, alien nation, back to the future III are my favs off the top of my head, some of the best!*
Here is a suggestion for a topic... How about, how would you build out a triple feature? Not necessarily sticking with 80's movies, although that would be a difficulty setting. One rule to keep in mind, no trilogies or related movies in the mix. You can't put Beverly Hills Cop 1 and 2 in. For example... If you are doing a triple feature of spoof movies - 1)Airplane, 2) Top Secret (Val Kilmer's first movie) 3) Hot Shots Part Deux. Sword and Sorcery movies - 1) Sword and the Sorceror, 2) Beastmaster 3) Conan the Destroyer 80's Sci Fi - 1) Aliens 2) Terminator 2 3) The Abyss Try it with buddy cop movies, 80's coming of age movies, westerns, war movies, etc.
Strange Brew, Airplane!, Blues Brothers, Weird Science, Life of Brian, Meaning of Life, Glory, Lean on Me, Clue, Witness and Commando were not mentioned in this video
OMG! Real Genius! Fantastic movie! Hmmm it sounds like you guys need to do a reaction channel where you watch all of these movies together for those of you who haven't seen some of the movies you mentioned. :)
Joe and Jayce love you guys. You mention movies that were some of my favorites as I was growing up like Last Dragon and Val Kilmer in Real Genius. I have been taking care of kids for 29 years and every time I mention movies I love they look at me like I'm the weirdest person in the room. So thank you because many times I watch your videos and you mention certain movies and other stuff and the other members have no clue what you talking about I get it everytime
Flight of the Dragans, The Empire Strikes back, Aliens, Predator, Lethal Weapon, Beverly Hills Cop, The Golden Child, The Breakfast Club, Killer Clowns from Outerspace, Innerspace,Twins, and Do The Right Thing !
a 1980's movie that everyone forgets about and is on my top list is "The Man With the One Red Shoe" Tom Hanks, Carrie Fisher, Jim Belushi, Lori Singer to name just a few of the actors in this great comedy movie...and if that catches your attention you can then go to "Bachelor Party"...again with Tom Hanks in the lead
This may my favorite of their podcast thus far, and I liked pretty much all of them. But this one was right up my alley, and I'm much older than all of them, so I was always in the movie theaters and drive-ins in the 80's. I absolutely loved the 80's...movies, music, vibe, fashion. I loved the last dragon as well, saw it in theaters. I knew all the lines in that movie!! I also loved almost all of Molly Ringwald's movies, like: The breakfast club, 16 candles, Pretty in pink, and more! Also, The Lost boys, Weird Science, ET, Ghostbusters franchise, Beverly Hills cop franchise, St. Elmore's fire, About last night, movies were just better then.
Short circuit, Die Hard, Iron Eagle, E.T., Karate Kid I,II and III, Back to the Future 1 & 2, The Breakfast Club, The Goonies, Full Metal Jacket, Beverly Hills Cop, Rain Main, Indiana Jones, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Space Balls, Caddy Shack, Major League and I'm only touching the surface... The 80's were the very best of movie making.
As far as 80s soundtracks and scores, Batman had both. You had Danny Elfman doing the score, a major 80s icon singer/songwriter. And then they had Prince, one of the kings of pop/rock.I owned both back in the day and saw it twice in theaters. I saw the movie on a Thursday night opening preview, waited in line to get tickets, and then showed up nearly two hours before the movie started to wait in line to get in. Best movie ever. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DIDN'T TALK ABOUT BATMAN!!
This was FABulous. My favourite movies from the 80's are generally music/dance movies - Dirty Dancing, Footloose, Flashdance, Grease 2 (IMHO better than 1), Fame ... 80's movies are generally my favourite overall so many classics.
This has got to be one of my favorite episodes ever!! I am an 84 baby and this was just such a walk down memory lane. So fun to watch, Sabrina you killed it 🙌 and Jayce I’m still getting used to your short hair 😂😂
John Hughes movies did not get enough attention on this episode. Also Legend, Blues Brothers, Revenge of the Nerds, Terminator, Rain Man, and Spaceballs are a must watch
Ghostbusters trivia: the camp that Dan Ackroyd mentioned in Ghostbusters regarding the staypuft marshmallow man actually exists, it is a girls camp outside of Kingston Ontario near where Dan lives. Dan is from Kingston Ontario. I only learned this bit of trivia when I went to a training camp at Camp Oconto. When I was at Queens University Dan used to hang around at a bar popular with students called the Trash.
What i learned from this video? Sabrina is a huge horror fan. Also - she may knows a lot about 80's music, but very little about 80's movies. Though we should consider the fact she was born in the late 90's.
"Real Genius" was great! I saw it in the theatre around my 10th birthday. I introduced it to my (now) wife years ago. It still gets quoted around the house. "Return to Oz" was another in the theatre experience for me. Loved it. Not the weirdest Oz movie I've seen.
the first movie I ever went to see in theaters by myself was Willow, I was 8. The movie I rented over and over the most was Gremlins, and I went as Beetlejuice twice as a Halloween costume, and I wrote a letter to Michael Keeton when I was 10.
Love that All dogs go to Heaven was mentioned and am so happy to see so many others that live The Lost Boys!!! I have a movie poster signed by all the cast members and it is one of my greatest treasures!
My Favs are Robocop Legend ( Tom Cruise ) The Thing Big Trouble in Little China The Adventures of Baron Munchausen Time Bandits Transformers The Movie The Last Starfighter Batman Better Off Dead Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure This is just a small list that sticks out to me.
Buckaroo Banzai Rocky Risky Business Cocktail Footloose. Any film with a Tangerine Dream soundtrack, GTA and Stranger Things bringing back the 80s icons.
I loved that he mentioned Real Genius. I have that movie on DVD and I remember decades ago when it was on digital cable and I still lived with my parents and it was on, I liked it and still think it’s hilarious. I love that Jayce mentioned Flight of the Navigator. 😊
Born in 1964, but also a Generation Xer and my top 5 all time favorite 80's movies are: Stand By Me, The Goonies, The Lost Boys, The Monster Squad and Willow. In 1978 I went to a drive in in South Carolina and saw GREASE. I believe that is the only time I went to a drive in movie. I was known as THE SOUNDTRACK GIRL for a long time at my jobs and the kids I took care of, because I still have epic soundtracks on CD to this day. Some were imported from different countries from Ebay and they include The Neverending Story II-The Next Chapter from Germany and Bugsy Malone from England. LOL.
Joe and Jayce got the best choices. The Last Dragon and Real Genius are gold. Add Big Trouble in Little China and you got a perfect trio.
Real genius is so awesome I can't even...
Love real genius
SHO NUFF!! LOL ❤❤❤❤
The girl with the green eyes!!!
I want 90s movies now !!! And 00s later !!!!
80s movies... Teen Witch, Breakfast Club, 16 candles, Goonies, Weird Science, Ferris Buller's day off, Dirty Dancing, The never-ending story, Princess Bride, Twins. omg so many great movies.
Back to the Future, Footloose, Sixteen Candles, the Breakfast Club, Top Gun, Animal House, Revenge of the Nerds, Pretty in Pink, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, All the Right Moves, Howard the Duck, Stand By Me, Porky’s, Spaceballs, Real Genius, The Goonies, Trading Places, Batman, Better Off Dead, Say Anything, One Crazy Summer,
As a person born in 74, I kind of understand what Joe means. The first movie I definitely remember seeing in the theater was Return of the Jedi in 1983 when I was 8 years old.
My first movie in theater at 10 years old!! :)
I can’t believe nobody mentioned Willow especially when talking about Kilmer. One of my 80’s favs…so so funny
Yeah, for real. Jayse did mention Willow in his quick fire list near the end, however.
I miss video stores, man. So much nostalgia walking up and down the aisles looking at all the covers.
Killer Klowns from Outer Space!!!!! Man it frightened me so much as a child. Need to have an entire episode dedicated to 80’s Horror! And not just the mainstream ones either but some of the niche ones like Killer Klowns.
Joe knows what’s up!!! The last crusade is hands down the best Indy movie
Comedy Tom Hanks 'Bachelor Party'. "Let's have a bachelor party with chicks and guns and fire trucks and hookers and drugs and booze!"
Obscure Eddie Murphy 'The Golden Child'. "I want the knife. Please."
Underrated Buddy Cops 'Running Scared'. "Deceleration trauma. Cement poisoning."
Fall of the Iron Curtain foreshadowing 'White Nights'
'Blade Runner' wins.
I’m surprised no one brought up Hellraiser, Critters, Ghoulies, Weird Science, Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, Revenge of the Nerds, and real niche Porky’s and Meatballs.
I'm with Jayse on this. Name my #1 singular top of the pile favorite 80s movie? Don't make me choose. Between Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Space Balls, Stand By Me, Breakfast Club, Back to the Future, Labyrinth, Lost Boys, Willow, Highlander, Neverending Story, The Last Unicorn, Footloose, The Karate Kid, Trains, Plains, and Automobiles, They Live, Police Academy....
Real Genius is one of the movies that SHAPED my sense of humor. Watching it is... a moral imperative.
Val Kilmer in Real Genius is great. Great pick Joe.
I thoroughly empathize with Jayce, there is no way I would be able to narrow my list down to 3!
The longer I think about it, the more movies get added on!
Jayse and Beba asking about Newsies! 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you! Just keep hounding Kevin about it, guys! Maybe one day....
I posted something a week or so ago about the range of reactors you have at the moment and this is a prime example of my meaning. In a podcast about 80's movies you don't have a single GenX reactor, who actually llived through it at an age to really experience these movies. So my question is, what gives?

Eddie and the Cruisers!! The Land Before Time! Weekend At Bernie’s! Willow! Short Circuit! The Shining! The Brave Little Toaster! So many great movies!
Eddie and the Cruisers was so good, great pick 👍🏻😊
St Elmo's Fire; Some Kind of Wonderful; Escape from New York; The Outsiders; Dead Poet's Society; Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Princess Bride, Labyrinth, Willow in the 1986-1988, family movies
Princess Bride, Labyrinth, Dirty Dancing, War Games!!!
I'm gonna go niche. Howard the Duck, Trancers, Big Trouble in Little China
Batman, Weird Science, Back to School, Weekend at Bernie's, Ferris Beuller's day off, Purple Rain and The little Mermaid!
It is INCONCEIVABLE to me that “The Princess Bride” was only mentioned in passing…. Thank You Jayse! It is my very favorite movie of all time ❤
My favorite movie of all time is The Outsiders! Then like Jayse my other picks would be Heathers, Some kind of Wonderful, Dream a little dream, Pretty in pink, but I also loved Cobra and Predator,Die Hard,The Burbs and The lost boys The 80’s were the best ever.

Back to The Future franchise is my all time favorite movies so it's Back to The Future the first one
Right even tho the third one came out in 1990 it was filmed after the second one!
For me, it's the second
Tom Hanks was actually 31 years old when he made BIG. He had that "young look" throughout the start of his career.
Real Genius is a hilarious and funny movie. Tom Hanks was in his early 30’s in Big. Some of my favorite 80’s movies are Platoon, born on the 4th of July, the Outsiders, Solar Babies, Dead Poets Society, the lost boys, the goonies, weird science, ghostbusters, stand by me, and bill and Ted’s excellent adventure, Young Guns.

This was a fun episode
Beba was SAVAGE in this one
Sabrina was gorgeous and extra points for liking Horror
Extra extra points for Beetlejuice
Jayse and Joe were always cool
Thanks for the laughs
Never ending story, krull, Willow, The Monster Squad, The lost Boys, Goonies,
Weird Science
For Beverly Hills Cop:Axel F, Joe was thinking of Judge Reinhold
Pumpkinhead, The Thing, Killer Klowns of Outer Space, Neverending Story, E.T., Labyrinth, Adventures of Babysitting, Mannequin, Heathers, etc. I could go on forever honestly with every genre. Best era by far
Empire Strikes Back, Batman, The Natural...too many to name, but I always get nostalgic when The Goonies are on.
I love how much Jayse was an overachiever with making such a long list! Honestly, I would done the same thing!
Karate Kid, Goonies, Krull, Over The Top, Ghost Busters, Back to The Future
Do this for the 70's and 90's. There are so many good and wild movies worth talking about.
Soundtrack movies...Top Gun, Footloose, The Breakfast Club, Dirty Dancing, Beverly Hills Cop
Real Genius is one of my all-time favorite movies! Another one is the classic Ladyhawke.
All of the Indiana Jones and anything by John Hughes! But also a super weird one, thought of this one after remembering Big Trouble in Little China…Howard the Duck 😂and also War Games!
I love 80's thrasher movies. Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger, Leatherface, etc.
Freddy is my love lol
I'm proud to say I've been to a drive-in movie theater! It was one the last times I visited my aunt and uncle when they lived in Bakersfield. I was about 12-years-old at the time. It was a double-feature of Escape from New York and Escape from L.A. We laid down in the back of my uncle's pick-up, and as a result, I eventually fell asleep. It's a fond memory I'll never forget.
Princess Bride! The Neverending Story! The Boy Who Could Fly! Honey I Shrunk the Kids!
Gremlins needed more love shown on the podcast than it was. It was one of the main reasons we have the movie rating PG-13.
Jayse has peak taste in movies. They all shied away from epic war movies but, Born on the Fourth of July and Full Metal Jacket deserve a shout out.
*the twilight zone movie, flight of the navigator, willow, neverending story, alien nation, back to the future III are my favs off the top of my head, some of the best!*

“What a bunch of Hosers, eh?!?” 😂
OMG! Real Genius! Fantastic movie! Hmmm it sounds like you guys need to do a reaction channel where you watch all of these movies together for those of you who haven't seen some of the movies you mentioned. :)
Hoosiers, The Karate Kid and The Last Starfighter which is severely underrated are my 3 favourite 80's Movies. 😊❤️
nobody talked about The Last Unicorn, and I feel like not a lot of people do, and that's a crime
Yeah that would have been one of mine. Lol
E.T. released in theaters June 11, 1982.
7:13 ngl this makes so much sense on how cultured jayce is 😭😭
Joe and Jayce love you guys. You mention movies that were some of my favorites as I was growing up like Last Dragon and Val Kilmer in Real Genius. I have been taking care of kids for 29 years and every time I mention movies I love they look at me like I'm the weirdest person in the room.

Flight of the Dragans, The Empire Strikes back, Aliens, Predator, Lethal Weapon, Beverly Hills Cop, The Golden Child, The Breakfast Club, Killer Clowns from Outerspace, Innerspace,Twins, and Do The Right Thing
!
My 80s best 5 1.E.T
2. Footloose
3. Beverly Hills Cop
4.Goonies
5.Gremlins
"Is Sigourney Weaver also Geena Davis?" Why does that make so much sense in an insane way?
a 1980's movie that everyone forgets about and is on my top list is "The Man With the One Red Shoe" Tom Hanks, Carrie Fisher, Jim Belushi, Lori Singer to name just a few of the actors in this great comedy movie...and if that catches your attention you can then go to "Bachelor Party"...again with Tom Hanks in the lead
Top Secret! - UHF - Cloak and Dagger

America Ninja, The Golden Child, The Karate Kid, No Retreat No Surrender
The Golden Child 👏👏👏
Short circuit, Die Hard, Iron Eagle, E.T., Karate Kid I,II and III, Back to the Future 1 & 2, The Breakfast Club, The Goonies, Full Metal Jacket, Beverly Hills Cop, Rain Main, Indiana Jones, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Space Balls, Caddy Shack, Major League and I'm only touching the surface... The 80's were the very best of movie making.
iron eagle, karate kid 1 and 3 ,space balls, major league.......all trash.
@@philipocallaghan takes trash to know trash I guess...
Val Kilmer's first movie was also a comedy, Top Secret! (1984)
As far as 80s soundtracks and scores, Batman had both. You had Danny Elfman doing the score, a major 80s icon singer/songwriter. And then they had Prince, one of the kings of pop/rock.I owned both back in the day and saw it twice in theaters.

This was FABulous. My favourite movies from the 80's are generally music/dance movies - Dirty Dancing, Footloose, Flashdance, Grease 2 (IMHO better than 1), Fame ... 80's movies are generally my favourite overall so many classics.
This has got to be one of my favorite episodes ever!! I am an 84 baby and this was just such a walk down memory lane. So fun to watch, Sabrina you killed it 🙌 and Jayce I’m still getting used to your short hair 😂😂
12:55 OK Joe is not lying about the double VCR 😂. My family did it too growing up 👀
John Hughes movies did not get enough attention on this episode. Also Legend, Blues Brothers, Revenge of the Nerds, Terminator, Rain Man, and Spaceballs are a must watch
Legend and Rain Man are the ONLY 2 Tom Cruise movies I like. Legend is one of my all time favourites!
I love Return to Oz! So glad it was mentioned it's so underrated
Ghostbusters trivia: the camp that Dan Ackroyd mentioned in Ghostbusters regarding the staypuft marshmallow man actually exists, it is a girls camp outside of Kingston Ontario near where Dan lives. Dan is from Kingston Ontario. I only learned this bit of trivia when I went to a training camp at Camp Oconto. When I was at Queens University Dan used to hang around at a bar popular with students called the Trash.
Splash, Dead Poets Society, Legend, Weird Science, Revenge of the Nerds Weekend at Bernies.
I am with you Jow Real Genius is a pretty darn good movie! "Kent have you been playing with yourself?"
What i learned from this video?
Sabrina is a huge horror fan. Also - she may knows a lot about 80's music, but very little about 80's movies. Though we should consider the fact she was born in the late 90's.
"Real Genius" was great! I saw it in the theatre around my 10th birthday. I introduced it to my (now) wife years ago. It still gets quoted around the house.
"Return to Oz" was another in the theatre experience for me. Loved it. Not the weirdest Oz movie I've seen.
Ah, Jayse, fellow '83 baby! Now I'm just wondering which month!
The last Crusade was about finding the holy Grail. The Kalima is the Temple of Doom where they rip hearts out.
the first movie I ever went to see in theaters by myself was Willow, I was 8. The movie I rented over and over the most was Gremlins, and I went as Beetlejuice twice as a Halloween costume, and I wrote a letter to Michael Keeton when I was 10.
Joe and Jayse should put together the ultimate list of cheesy guy flicks
With the hat and Vader mask, Joe looked like Aniken grew up building and driving Nascar instead of pod racers.
I can’t believe no one mentioned ET or The Karate Kid at all.
Love that All dogs go to Heaven was mentioned and am so happy to see so many others that live The Lost Boys!!!
I have a movie poster signed by all the cast members and it is one of my greatest treasures!
The Last Dragon was the life then finding Treasure...Goonie for life!
The Princess Bride is one of my favs.
I enjoyed this topic, and this episode has made me a fan. 😊🎉
Thank you Joe for your take on Michael Keaton! That man is a genius and I love his work sooo much. Batman is by far the best 80’s movie 🥰😍
Followed closely with Mr. Mom 😂
My Favs are
Robocop
Legend ( Tom Cruise )
The Thing
Big Trouble in Little China
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen
Time Bandits
Transformers The Movie
The Last Starfighter
Batman
Better Off Dead
Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure
This is just a small list that sticks out to me.
Buckaroo Banzai Rocky Risky Business Cocktail Footloose. Any film with a Tangerine Dream soundtrack, GTA and Stranger Things bringing back the 80s icons.
Excalibur, The Empire Strikes Back, Footloose, Can't Buy Me Love are my 80s favorites...
The Last Starfighter is my niche pick
I can't believe there was no mention of Short Circuit or Short Circuit 2
Omg, just made it to the end and 100% agree with Sabrina about Psycho II. It’s so good!!!!
My dad used do the taping movies on blank tapes. I remember my dad taping Purple Rain and Thumbelina on one tape😂
😅talk about different genres
THE best ReactCast so far.
Heathers is one of my 80s peak
1) Christine
2) Taps
3) Trading Places
I loved that he mentioned Real Genius.
I have that movie on DVD and I remember decades ago when it was on digital cable and I still lived with my parents and it was on, I liked it and still think it’s hilarious.
I love that Jayce mentioned Flight of the Navigator. 😊
Real Genius was awesome but I have to go along with you Jayse. The Last Dragon ... Sho Nuff! 6:39 Sorry brother but the line is, "Who is the master"
Born in 1964, but also a Generation Xer and my top 5 all time favorite 80's movies are: Stand By Me,
The Goonies, The Lost Boys, The Monster Squad and Willow. In 1978 I went to a drive in in South Carolina
and saw GREASE. I believe that is the only time I went to a drive in movie.
I was known as THE SOUNDTRACK GIRL for a long time at my jobs and the kids I took care of, because
I still have epic soundtracks on CD to this day. Some were imported from different countries from Ebay and
they include The Neverending Story II-The Next Chapter from Germany and Bugsy Malone from England. LOL.
Willow? You are strange. And never heared about Monster Squad.
I, like Joe, got Spaceballs so quick! I flippin' love _anything_ that breaks the fourth wall! I can't tell you how many times I watched it growing up!
My favorite 80s movie is "The Princess Bride", but if I was going more deep cut I was going to say "The Last Dragon" the Jayse choose it.
