    I don't really watch many 1980's movies but I do like E.T, who knows I might have watched movies and don't realized they are from the 80'sw cause I have watched lots of old DVD's and seen older movies on Netflix.

    I like The Breakfast Club, Stand by Me, E.T and like another person said I might have seen some movies that I did not even know when they were made I don't normally check for when a movie was made. lol

    I also like the slashers but they all seem to have nudity and stuff.

    I don't think I have seen any 80's movie besides Raiders of the Lost Ark, I might have but I am not sure. I have not seen this D.A.R.Y.L or Neverending Story everyone is talking about.

    I love "Mischief" (1985) it is so funny and Doug McKeon is so cute, I watch this movie so many times and lol each time.

    I think you all should check it out here is a description from IMDB.

    [In 1956, the shy Jonathan's luck with girls changes when he wins the rebellious Gene as a friend in his last year of high school. Gene is adored by many girls and manages to teach Jonathan a few lessons. Gene himself would rather just be with one girl: his girlfriend Bunny. However, since his father is poor, her parents don't accept him.]

    Cool movies from 80's I like are War Games, Flight of the Navigator, Explorers and a real fav from the end of the 80's 1989's The Wizard. The wizard is a very cool movie and about gaming so course, I love it.

    Serious if you need a movie to watch check it out.
