Moviebuff: The 80's.

Bladerunner, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Back to the Future, The Empire Strikes Back, ET, Wrath of Khan, Ghostbusters, The Untouchables, Big,Die Hard, A Fish Called Wanda, Airplane!, The Naked Gun, Witness, The Terminator, Brazil and many more

Other decades might have had technically better movies but the 80's win on pure entertainment value.


I agree! And I would also name Aliens (1986), The Meaning of Life (1983), and just on the edges of the 80s are two of my favorites, Life of Brian (1979) and Thelma and Louise (1991)

Kattsrose: It depends on what you want to watch but like the romance and dramas from the 40s. The 50s had some great musicals and comedies.


I agree with you! handshake And they meant something... E.g. The Wizard of Oz, Gone with the Wind.... They are symbols, not just movies.

While I think the 80's produced the best music, for movies it's the above eras for me.

BlainX: The soundtrack may be okay, but I hope you don't tolerate that scene?

Each to themselves I guess?


well the scene is a key to the rest of the movie. it speaks of the culture of that area of the country.

That is odd man, I never scene any of those recomended movies you suggested,
But Thelma and Louise ???
As my Grand father would of said, My God Man you need to grow up and be a man.

I would of said Bunny and Clyde or the Dirty Dozen or anything manly...

Secondly,
I am from the Applachian area and that movie does not represent that area, time, or legacy.
If I have a gun in the country, I'll be damn if your going to approach me.

The Hollywood Version did not represent the Appalachian territory, those buck tooths up on the ridges, depicting what that movie suggested, Are Dead Men/Man. Not rogue gooners that hang up there for lengthy periods of time.
That's all I'm saying about that.

Unless you are a very religious person, The Meaning of Life, and Life of Brian, (both Monty Python's), should make you laugh your pants off. Strongly recommended!

Aliens, (the second in the series of 4), is one of the best science fiction movies ever (IMHO).
