Awesome 80's/90's Films!

Anybody wish they made films like 'Big Trouble In Little China', 'Tango and Cash', 'The Lost Boys' 'Beverly Hills Cop' 'Teminator 2' these days? I never get bored of them, any other 80's/90's ones you guys have seen that you love/recommend?

I havent seen the films you mentioned, but I just LOVE Police Academy. All of them. Of course, the first ones are a bit better, but the last ones are good too. i guess thats my favourite movies from 80s/90s. I love movies from that time in general, so I think I might like this thread.

I also like films of that eras a lot. But I suck at commanding my memory, so there are few that come to my mind now. And these are Rock Star, Detroit Rock City, This is Spinal Tap, American Werewolf in London, Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula, Falling Down, The Boondock Saints, Fight Club and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

The Lost Boys also remembers me of another vampire movie called Vampires: Los Muertos with Jon Bon Jovi. It was quite some time after watching that, that I realized he is a rock singer.

Oh Trick or Treat are great. That kinda horror movie about the dead rockstar to contacts a fan from the other side. I normally hate horror movies because I get so scared, but I love that one.
Smokey and the Bandit are great too, maybe a bit to early (I think the first one came out in 79 or something). I have a kinda weird taste in movies. I doesnt really make sense. xD

Wayne's World and Wayne's World 2...Excellent!

There was also Scarface.

Aw Dracula!! *-* And Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Police Academy! Amazing!!!
I really like Tim Burton, so of those years I love Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, Nightmare Before Christmas..
Then, I was 9 yo when I saw Dumb and Dumber.. and I still love it..so silly!
Angel heart, 9 weeks and half, Shining, It, The Silence of the lambs..

Police Academy and Waynes World films are amazing! You should definitely checkout Big Trouble In Little China and Beverly Hills Cop! Cobra, Kickboxer and Best of the Best for some 80's cut-off denim! The Lethal Weapon films are also great action and really funny! Cannonball Run if you like Smokey and the Bandit! Think I've seen the bon jovi one aswell! Point Break with a bit of Ratt on the soundtrack!

Yeah, those Tim Burton movies were great! But what about his Batman movies? And he also made that Frankenweenie shortfilm, that he remade as a blockbuster recently, back then.

Jim Henson made Labyrinth and Dark Crystal, as well as some The Muppets movies in that timespan.

And three The Addams Family movies popped up in the '90s, as well as two new seasons for the tv-show.

The Baron., I think I saw them all with my dad when I was a child

Yesss Batman of '89 with Jack Nicholson as Joker... I saw it on Saturday night, it was on tv! I have to go and see Frankenweenie, in Italy is out now at the cinema..

Cannonball Run, is that the car race wirth all the weird cars and people? I think i saw some of it once, but hadnt time to watch all or something. Need to watch it again, thanks for reminding me


And that person who mentioned the Muppet Show, thumbs up for you I love the muppet show, got the two first seasons on dvd.
And of course Waynes World. Love them. I actually dressed up as them on my birhtday party, together with my boyfriend xD We looked awesome xD

Batman of '89 was amazing! Labrinth is classic! Anyone seen 'The Monster Squad?

The Baron wrote: Yeah thats the one, great film! Think it's early 80's! Bill and Ted awesome as well!

Yeha I saw the first Bill and Ted-movie (there is more, right) as a school-thingy. It was a history project xD It definately made me want to see the rest of them


Edit: Uuuh where did the post i quoted go? hahaha

Sorry my bad! submitted the quote and deleted it by accident! Yeah the 2nd film is good, great soundtrack!

"The Monster squad".. the title reminds me something.. maybe I have to check!

What about the Neverending Story?

Did anybody see Cheech & Chong movies?

Nope, but I'll search for it

Dude, 20 years of film and I'm a movie lover. I don't feel like putting the time and effort into writing down all the great movies from those two decades

American History X, Boys Don't Cry, Good Will Hunting, The Cider House Rules,
