I'm in nostalgia mood. So I need to watch some of those.

What I don't want to watch because I saw them multiple times:

Escape from New York
Lethal Weapon
Romancing the Stone
Indiana Jones

any genre, I just want to watch this particular period (and stuff made in this particular period).

Watch Coming to America. It's great.

Willow is greatly underappreciated.

FnordChan · Jan 3, 2013

Before you watch a single film, ask yourself an important question: Has this movie been produced by The Cannon Group? If not, then the movie you are watching simply is not 80s enough. Here are some highlights:

Enter The Ninja
Invasion U.S.A.
Death Wish III
The Delta Force
Cobra
Over The Top
Lifeforce
Invaders From Mars
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
Missing in Action
Missing in Action 2: The Beginning
And, of course, Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
