Trust me it was better back then... that's one reason why the country is so divided...one side remembers what America is all about (the 80's) and the other side wants to turn it into the dark ages. The 80's rocked!
I was lucky enough to of grown up during the 80's/early 90's. TV, music, movies etc did seem better back then despite not having anywhere near the kinda media/tech we have today. Society as a whole seemed to be allot more happier. I can't be sure if my love for the 80's has meaning or is more to do with nostalgia though. It's hard to make a call when you're that age.
I dont think 80's kids realize how good they had it. They hade amazing music that played on the radios. Stuff like Cyndi Lauper, Michael Jackson, Aerosmith, and Journey Not his annoying Katy Perry, Rihanna, and Kesha crap that plays 100 times a day. And the movies were amazing. So many classics, that I never get tired of watching like Goonies, The Breakfast Club, and Back to the Future. Now, we only get 1 or 2 amazing movies a year.

Dario Argento's Inferno, the Big Red One, the Hidden, Full Metal Jacket, the Osterman Weekend, Blow Out, Demons, Lucas, Can't Buy Me Love, etc. Still, all in all, a good list.
Good job on this list! If I picked my top 3 fav's, they would be 1.Fatal Attraction 2.The Breakfast Club 3.Stand By Me...Also its hard to remember all the best ones, but I thought St. Elmos's Fire was really good also. It was somewhat of a spin-off from The Breakfast Club. Also"Arthur" with Dudley Moore & Liza Minnelli was pretty good movie ('81).
I'm glad I grew up in the 80's, movies were so epic back then. You can tell since they remake just about every 80's movie these days, mainly movies that can't be topped. One movie that also should be in that list "Critters" that was such a nice movie. Btw what is the song of the vid?
Dream A Little Dream 1989 Dear Dark 1987 The Princess Bride 1987 The Neverending Story 1984 Evil Dead 2 1987 The Last Starfighter 1984 The Beastmaster 1982 Big Trouble in Little China 1986 Predator 1987 Some Kind of Wonderful 1987 Better off Dead 1985
1. Raging Bull 2. Full Metal Jacket 3. Radio Days 4. Ghostbusters 5. Beetlejuice 6. The Breakfast Club 7. Die Hard 8. Caddyshack 9. The Terminator 10. Ferris Bueller's Day Off
whats the name of the movie where this highschool girl started dressing like a boy and she/he became very popular with the girls at school and ended up falling for this dude in the end?...i use to love that one
The great thing about 80's movies is they didn't need any fancy plots, or plot devices (car chases, explosions). They were just about real people and real life. The experiences could very well have been our own during some period of our childhood. I've been Ferris Bueller, and countless others before. You just can't do that with movies now. Nobody would want to watch a 2 hour movie about a kid playing Call of Duty on XBox Live.
wow this is a really good list your very diverse i like it lol hmmm maybe u might wanna add the color purple & yea gandhi is a good movie & full metal jacket was pretty popualr also ... angel heart with robert deniro & working girl
Some missings, but good job. :) Big Trouble in Little China (1986) Frantic (1988) Once Upon a Time in America (1984) Nuovo Cinema Paradiso (1988) Amadeus (1984) The Elephant Man (1980) Zelig (1983) After Hours (1985) Blow Out (1981) Paris, Texas (1984) They Live (1988)
I'm gonna thumbs up this even though you left out some of the best movies, because it's a good list nonetheless. The foremost being Conan The Barbarian. That is not just some subjective pick either. That movie is considered to have one of the best movie sound tracks ever made to this day.
ohh & empire of the sun & the secret of my success...moonstruck...the witches of eastwick...who framed roger rabbit...dead poets society & maybe twins buht overall i love ur list 5 stars
Yeah, I think you picked up on the point I was eluding to... back then we actually went out and had real experiences like that. If we were to write autobiography's of our childhoods, it'd be pretty interesting. Maybe even movie worthy. Sadly, most kids stories today wouldn't consist of much more than Halo & Twitter feeds. Mixed emotions. I envy them for still being young, but pity them for not really living, like we did.
Haha yep,Mr. ''you gotta to be fucking kidding me?'' himself,David Clennon.Did you also notice David Rasche,best known as 80's cult sitcom hero sledgehammer?He always ends up giving the best performance in anything he does.Wonderful actor.
''because your obsessed with kubrick'' As opposed to being obsessed with me,and you're own inflated self-importance?You're ego is so bruised,you stalk me on youtube.That deserves an industrial strength lol ''that's you talking in your sleep lol'' joyandian:(while sleeping 3 days ago) ''Mr.KUBRICKIAN didn't embarrass me on youtube...no..no he didn't...no''
does anyone know what the name of the movie that came out in the early-mid 80s about teams racing to a destination (similar to amazing race). all the teams had on different color sweaters. there was this real nerdy guy with glasses. ive seen him in other movies cant think of his name.
Hi guys, I remember from my childhood a film about a airliner crash. As I remember a woman survived and she was trying to stay alive in forest aroud the airliner debris. do you remember such film ? It is shown in TV in 1987-88 as I remember. I dont know why I am hangup with that film, but it had been affected me. I would want to watch it now again.
A hundred?Whew...gimme some time,but here the top 5 films i love and watch endlessly. 1.full metal jacket(1987) 2.cutter's way(1981) 3.the shining(1980) 4.the thing(1982) 5.where the buffalo roam(1980)(Would be a perfect comedy,if they deleted that horribly unconvincing acid trip scene on the plane)
No Steven Segal? (Above The Law) I thought that was a landmark action movie. Here are a few favs of mine that I would add to your already awsome list: Less Than Zero, Live and Die in L.A., No Man's Land, Good Morning Vietam, Gates of Hell, Full Metal Jacket. I have several others I like, but I don't consider them worthy of your list.
I want to know if anyone can tell me, what is the name of the animated movie from the 80's that included music from earth,wind and fire and heavy metal groups ?
Good collection of films but there are a lot missing from your list here are a few examples that i know. xtro, bmx bandits, adventures of buckaroo banzai, zone troopers, deep star six, leviathan, my science project, misfits of science, c.h.u.d, the vindicator, the wraith, silent rage, strykker, any of the hallowe'en films, hell comes to frogtown, they live, one crazy summer, the beast within, the big bet, my first turn on, any of the ernest films
Shouldn't an effective war film leave you cold?There is humanity in full metal jacket,but it's extremely subtle.Look at cowboy as he watches hartman belittle pyle,or joker's face after the blanket party beating.And how does kubrick's technique get in the way of the film?What people forget about full metal jacket,is at it's heart,a dark comedy,but more bitter and antagonistic.Kubrick follows each dramatic scene,with either humor or irony,or both.He re-invented the satire,it speaks for itself
I would have hoped "The Last Star Fighter" and "Flash Gordon" could have been in here, but other than that, everything else is accounted for. Oh, and "Revenge of the Nerds." that would have been a good choice too. But I know you had to choose Raiders over that.
I agree with alot of your list but you missed :The Great Outdoors and: Harry and the Hendersons those are great ones and you forgot to put Back to the future 2 on there too. you can't put three because that one was released in the 90's
Who Framed Roger Rabbit from 1988 was good too. I don't know if you like Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, I liked that too, and don't forget Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

I was lucky enough to of grown up during the 80's/early 90's. TV, music, movies etc did seem better back then despite not having anywhere near the kinda media/tech we have today. Society as a whole seemed to be allot more happier.
I can't be sure if my love for the 80's has meaning or is more to do with nostalgia though. It's hard to make a call when you're that age.

And the movies were amazing.
So many classics, that I never get tired of watching like Goonies, The Breakfast Club, and Back to the Future.

The great thing about 80's movies is they didn't need any fancy plots, or plot devices (car chases, explosions). They were just about real people and real life. The experiences could very well have been our own during some period of our childhood. I've been Ferris Bueller, and countless others before.
You just can't do that with movies now. Nobody would want to watch a 2 hour movie about a kid playing Call of Duty on XBox Live.

Mixed emotions. I envy them for still being young, but pity them for not really living, like we did.
Agreed, and Something Wicked this way comes...
No Explorers and Outsiders? But the Goonies, ET, Stand by me, three o'clock high and legend of Billie jean are my favs
the goonies 1985, my favorit year of the 80´s
Why was 1985 your favorite year of the 80s?
BACK TO FUTURE!!!
I believe Mad Max 2 and Fright Night fit it too.
The Outsiders?

Haha yep,Mr. ''you gotta to be fucking kidding me?'' himself,David Clennon.Did you also notice David Rasche,best known as 80's cult sitcom hero sledgehammer?He always ends up giving the best performance in anything he does.Wonderful actor.
my personal favourite is the shining
''because your obsessed with kubrick''
As opposed to being obsessed with me,and you're own inflated self-importance?You're ego is so bruised,you stalk me on youtube.That deserves an industrial strength lol
''that's you talking in your sleep lol''
joyandian:(while sleeping 3 days ago) ''Mr.KUBRICKIAN didn't embarrass me on youtube...no..no he didn't...no''
does anyone know what the name of the movie that came out in the early-mid 80s about teams racing to a destination (similar to amazing race). all the teams had on different color sweaters. there was this real nerdy guy with glasses. ive seen him in other movies cant think of his name.
Where's Robocop?
Who needs Robo Cop when we have The Terminator.
The Terminator and RoboCop are both great. RoboCop possibly even better than The Terminator.
Hi guys, I remember from my childhood a film about a airliner crash. As I remember a woman survived and she was trying to stay alive in forest aroud the airliner debris. do you remember such film ? It is shown in TV in 1987-88 as I remember. I dont know why I am hangup with that film, but it had been affected me. I would want to watch it now again.
Good list. Not sure, but escape from New York?
King Kong? 1980
There was no King Kong in 1980. 1976 I believe.
There are zero jean claude van damme movies. Bloodsport? Kick Boxer? Cyborg? Pick one.
Hahaha. Do his movies even crack the top 200?
I totally agree with the list! And Blade Runner is a true masterpiece!
what about willow,ledgend,it,bernies on vacation,
Wish my generation had these awesome movies. LOST BOYS HECK YEAH!! COREY FELDMAN! :D

Airplane
Airplane 2
Awesome video but you're missing one, The Outsiders!!!!!! (btw i know this is top 100 but outsiders could have made it in) still, great video :)

and put the mini-series North and South in there
I love stand by me!!!!
You skipped Robocop...and put in cocktail....
@Gaming Git That's the problem. RoboCop and at least 50 '80s movies are better than Cocktail.
Where is Halloween 2, 3 & 4
Beetlejuice!
Beetle juice was there
wheres harry and the hendersons
...watchin this shows, how life fly's by :/
.sucks gettin old!
they call me bruce and they still call me bruce was another grate 80s
My left foot and full metal jacket should be there otherwise great video
No Steven Segal? (Above The Law) I thought that was a landmark action movie.
Here are a few favs of mine that I would add to your already awsome list:
Less Than Zero, Live and Die in L.A., No Man's Land, Good Morning Vietam,
Gates of Hell, Full Metal Jacket. I have several others I like, but I don't consider them worthy of your list.
I want to know if anyone can tell me, what is the name of the animated movie from the 80's that included music from earth,wind and fire and heavy metal groups ?
Heavy metal
Short Circuit 1&2 - 'Jonny 5 is bleeding' ah man there is so many - they dont make them like they used to 😔
+shortyian awsome choice
Good collection of films but there are a lot missing from your list here are a few examples that i know.
xtro, bmx bandits, adventures of buckaroo banzai, zone troopers, deep star six, leviathan, my science project, misfits of science, c.h.u.d, the vindicator, the wraith, silent rage, strykker, any of the hallowe'en films, hell comes to frogtown, they live, one crazy summer, the beast within, the big bet, my first turn on, any of the ernest films
the escape artist (1982)
should be on this list
Weekend at Bernie's
what about the outsiders (1983)
Shouldn't an effective war film leave you cold?There is humanity in full metal jacket,but it's extremely subtle.Look at cowboy as he watches hartman belittle pyle,or joker's face after the blanket party beating.And how does kubrick's technique get in the way of the film?What people forget about full metal jacket,is at it's heart,a dark comedy,but more bitter and antagonistic.Kubrick follows each dramatic scene,with either humor or irony,or both.He re-invented the satire,it speaks for itself
St Elmo's Fire, Dead Poet's Society, Mississippi Burning, Born On The Fourth Of July
Where was mannequin?!?!?! Unless i missed it?
+shortyian grate film
I would have hoped "The Last Star Fighter" and "Flash Gordon" could have been in here, but other than that, everything else is accounted for.
Oh, and "Revenge of the Nerds." that would have been a good choice too. But I know you had to choose Raiders over that.
Nailed it!
Is dead to me an 80's movie? If so that one needs to be there too.
thanx gives me some inspiration what to watch :D
The wraith
Major leauge
Revenge of the nerds,
Solar babies,
The heavenly kid
Just one of the guys,
Better off dead
Im sure I can think of some more.
I agree with alot of your list but you missed :The Great Outdoors
and: Harry and the Hendersons
those are great ones and you forgot to put Back to the future 2 on there too. you can't put three because that one was released in the 90's
Good list, but what about The Outsiders?
Who Framed Roger Rabbit from 1988 was good too. I don't know if you like Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, I liked that too, and don't forget Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
I love this song
