You know what Jack Burton always says, Slackers?
This week I give my top movies for each year of the 80's - but are my favorites from childhood still the same in adulthood? 1984 was the most difficult year to whittle down, because it was chock full of so many classics, most of which still hold up today.
Sure, sensibilities have changed - as has technology - but a great story will always shine through. For example, one excellent movie that I once dismissed as "just a chick flick" is now one of my all time favorites.
There are huge action stars like Harrison Ford, Bruce Willis, and Mel Gibson represented here - but so are some future action leads, like Keanu Reeves & Christian Slater at an earlier stage of their careers.
Vampires! Time Travel! Space Battles! Video Games! It's all here - because the 80's were glorious!
