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.
Princess Bride, Labyrinth, Willow in the 1986-1988, family 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!! :)
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.
I miss video stores, man. So much nostalgia walking up and down the aisles looking at all the covers.
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.
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.
Jayse and Beba asking about Newsies! 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you! Just keep hounding Kevin about it, guys! Maybe one day....
St Elmo's Fire; Some Kind of Wonderful; Escape from New York; The Outsiders; Dead Poet's Society; Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Real Genius is one of my all-time favorite movies! Another one is the classic Ladyhawke.
Real Genius is one of the movies that SHAPED my sense of humor. Watching it is... a moral imperative.
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'm gonna go niche. Howard the Duck, Trancers, Big Trouble in Little China
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 👍🏻😊
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.
Val Kilmer in Real Genius is great. Great pick Joe.
Joe knows what’s up!!! The last crusade is hands down the best Indy movie
Princess Bride, Labyrinth, Dirty Dancing, War Games!!!
Top Secret! - UHF - Cloak and Dagger
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
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
Do this for the 70's and 90's. There are so many good and wild movies worth talking about.
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....
Hoosiers, The Karate Kid and The Last Starfighter which is severely underrated are my 3 favourite 80's Movies. 😊❤️
I love Return to Oz! So glad it was mentioned it's so underrated
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.
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 can’t believe no one mentioned ET or The Karate Kid at all.
Soundtrack movies...Top Gun, Footloose, The Breakfast Club, Dirty Dancing, Beverly Hills Cop
7:13 ngl this makes so much sense on how cultured jayce is 😭😭
Tom Hanks was actually 31 years old when he made BIG. He had that "young look" throughout the start of his career.
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.
The Princess Bride is one of my favs.
E.T. released in theaters June 11, 1982.
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
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!!
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
“What a bunch of Hosers, eh?!?” 😂
Val Kilmer's first movie was also a comedy, Top Secret! (1984)
Never ending story, krull, Willow, The Monster Squad, The lost Boys, Goonies,
Weird Science
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

Empire Strikes Back, Batman, The Natural...too many to name, but I always get nostalgic when The Goonies are on.
Heathers is one of my 80s peak
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

The Golden Child 👏👏👏
I love 80's thrasher movies. Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger, Leatherface, etc.
Freddy is my love lol
I love how much Jayse was an overachiever with making such a long list! Honestly, I would done the same thing!
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. :)
How the heck you going to have these people talk about 80s movie's , when they we're barely were alive in the 80s??? Why didn't you get gen xers???
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.
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.
Joe and Jayse should put together the ultimate list of cheesy guy flicks
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
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 😂😂
The Outsiders?! Amazing book and movie, except I usually don't watch the end when it's on. Way too sad.
Karate Kid, Goonies, Krull, Over The Top, Ghost Busters, Back to The Future
THE best ReactCast so far.
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.
I am so so sad not one person mentioned Clue.
“So much… it it… the it… flame flames, flames on the side of… my face… breathing… breath” 😂
The Beastmaster
I was surprised nobody mentioned Weird Science.
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.
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.
My 80s best 5 1.E.T
2. Footloose
3. Beverly Hills Cop
4.Goonies
5.Gremlins
Best sick movie as a kid was The Princess Bride!!
Always a great movie.
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.
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.
"Is Sigourney Weaver also Geena Davis?" Why does that make so much sense in an insane way?
Big Trouble in Little China, Tremors, Hudson Hawk, Long Kiss Goodnight
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.
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. 😊
Princess Bride! The Neverending Story! The Boy Who Could Fly! Honey I Shrunk the Kids!
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"
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 drive in from the movie The Outsiders was where I always went to when I was a kid. Saw Jurassic Park there.
"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.
For me: “The Thing” and “Aliens”
The Last Dragon was the life then finding Treasure...Goonie for life!
I am with you Jow Real Genius is a pretty darn good movie! "Kent have you been playing with yourself?"
Sabrina does not disappointment me with being a horror fan. In that regard, I feel I would get along well with her. Very solid list!
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!
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 ❤
The Princess Bride is just not the greatest movie of the 80's but it's the greatest movie of all time. I quote that movie way too much and yet, I don't have enough prompts in the day to quote it more.
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...
Batman 89. Die Hard, Beverly Hills Cop, Raiders of the lost ark. Back to the future
Im Joe & Jayce right now lol 3-12 yrs of ages , I cant choose 1 i have Goonies , Neverending Story & Lost Boys ,Wierd Science & Real Genius
Monster squad for the iconic line “Wolfman’s got nards!”
I always like Jayce but now I love him for picking The Last Dragon!
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
Batman, Weird Science, Back to School, Weekend at Bernie's, Ferris Beuller's day off, Purple Rain and The little Mermaid!
I was a teen (a young one) in the 80tys.late 80tys early 90tys.
I would have had a long list like jayce too. Also I'm with you Jayce the last dragon is a great movie
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
!
The Neverending Story, Flight of the Navigator, Legend, The Wizard
I’m so old, I watched Last Dragon at the drive-in.
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!
