I will definitely see that. The best movie of the 80’s however was Caddyshack.

Personal preference i guess. Its hard to find a movie in the 80s thats still not watchable the whole way thru even now days. I dont normally go see movies anymore, but this will be on my top to see this year.

The Lost Boys, Caddyshack, Short Circuit, and the Goonies are all great flicks! I’ll add the original Vacation as one of the best 80s movies too.

The fact that Corey Feldman looks pretty much like he did 21 years ago is halarious. Corey Hiam is back too reprising his role. Dude looks like hes 60 from drug use.

That was my favorite for a long time too. Its hard to pinpoint one movie thats the best of that era. Too many goodies to list.
