Subject: What movies capture the '80s the best?
Written By: yelimsexa on 09/29/09 at 10:52 am
A spin-off from a similar topic on the '90s board, which movies capture the early '80s (1980-83), mid '80s (1984-86), and late '80s (1987-89) the best?
For early '80s, I'd say Fame (1980), Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982), and Valley Girl (1982). Post-disco and new wave styles emerging.
For mid-'80s, I'd say The Breakfast Club (1984), Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (1985), and any other Brat Pack film released in that time.
Late '80s I'm not quite sure on.

Desperately Seeking Susan even! ;)
80s movies are quite easy... any John Hughes movie.

Nightmares (1983) - the "Bishop of Battle" story starring Emilio Estevez
Ninja III - The Domination (1984) - the main character is an aerobics instructor who wears a headband, spandex tights, and legwarmers!
Hardbodies (1984) - a perfect time capsule of 1983-'84, with an appearance by all-girl hairband Vixen!
