OMG! I wish I was still in the 80's. It was the best! Some of my favorite movies were:

Pretty In Pink
Breakfast Club
Karate Kid
Outsiders

I just loved Ralph Macchio back then. LOL!

Also, remember jellie shoes and jellie bracelets, members only jackets, leg warmers, half shirts, ripped jeans, tons of bracelets on your arms, those belts that layed crooked on your waist, swatch watches. I'll have to think of some more things!

I remember when my friends and I were all into Break dancing. Well, this one time in shop class I dared my one girlfriend to do the "worm" on one of the shop tables while the teacher was out in the hall (remember how ya would slink yourself across the floor?). Of course he came in while she was in the middle of it and she got into trouble. The rest of us could not stop laughing! We still laugh about it to this day. And of course she still blames me for getting her into trouble. LOL!

OH What a decade!!! That is when I can say I had the best time of my life.

My one all time favorite ingenious movie was Back to the future. I thought the plot was

so imaginative and well thought out that I never stopped laughing.. Remember Calvin...(his

underwear).It was so great . George Mcfly lying in bed seeing an alien playing an Eddie

VanHalen guitar solo. And the music .ZZTOP Duran Duran Madonna and so on and and so .. I

was always dancing.....

Well, I really hate to date myself, but I don't really remember too many movies of the 80s...I think my favorite movie of the 80s during the 80s was the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon and movies :)...but that would have been very late 80s, maybe even 90. My favorite 80s movies now are the Molly Ringwald movies; they're great! :)
