All About 80s Movies

*MikeandRaph87* · 07-05-2014, 05:40 PM

The 1980s decade stands out in film history. Quite a few of my favorites came out during this decade and seems to be when Blockbusters were developed and the decade much of what we see today can trace influence from. It had two original trilogy Star Wars films. two Back To The Future films,two Rocky films, the era of shoot'em up action films, the rise of the horror genre and its endless sequels,teen comedies and much more influenced from the culture of the time and the last leg of the Cold War. Here are the results of a poll of 100 films of the 1980s decade which one can take like a grain of salt but gives you all a good sample of what was released during the decade. So which are your favorites films of the 80s'?
