Some Kind of Wonderful? And I think you have the hair colors reversed.

Just One of the Guys

There we go.

[PrestigeWorldwide]

If we're focusing on stuff not on blu-ray, I'd add RAD, No Retreat No Surrender (the U.S. cut) and My Science Project to that list.

For RAD I keep forgetting to look for a high quality 1080i/p download so I could make my own custom interim Blu-ray, without menus, until it gets officially released. I've been doing that for many movies not on Blu-ray since I'd rather have them encoded and structured similar to a Blu-ray on disc, again sans menus, instead of on my Movies/TV Shows/etc. HDD in my computer.
Cause 720p just doesn't cut it for my fan discs. If the filesize is small enough I just make an AVCHD if it's around 3GB~7GB. Works for certain cuts of movies not found anywhere on the planet on Blu-ray or HD DVD.

All of these above I would buy as well. I'm kind of surprised Twilight Time hasn't gotten Just One Of The Guys since it has become a cult classic and they had a 30th anniversary cast reunion screening earlier this year. Joyce Hyser is a Facebook friend and she hasn't aged a bit, she's a cool person too.

Wow, it seems like forever since I saw 3 O'clock High. I'd probably pick that one up if released.

I'd probably buy all of these. Some of them are with Universal, which could be licensed by Shout Factory.

I'd love My Science Project to come out. This is the 30th anniversary this year too and nothing

[Matt C.]

For my BD Wish List of 80's nostalgia, I'll go for these:

The Watcher In the Woods
Hot Dog
Splash
Streets of Fire
Pretty In Pink
The Golden Child
Beverly Hills Cop 2
Can't Buy Me Love
North Shore
Some Kind of Wonderful
Stakeout
The Secret of My Success
Colors
Lean On Me
Loverboy
The Abyss

I'm going to cheat and add these three from 1990 in too, since they feel "80's-ish" to me!

Pump Up the Volume
Sideout
Young Guns 2

Not priorities on my Wish List, but sure, I'd be happy to nab these guilty 80's pleasures on Blu as well...

It's actually available in Germany, but it shares a single disc with THREE whole other movies:



Apparently, one user tested it and says it's playable in the US:

but is it region-free?

Amazon US doesn't carry it though they carry a lot of imports, but when I've seen it pop up on ebay, it's always explicitly stated that it's region-locked in the description, so I've never bothered

[Brundle]

I know Better Off Dead has a BD, but I don't think Once Crazy Summer does. That would be a great 80s double feature. Ski Patrol would be another good one.

[luv2shop]

Would really love to see.....

Heaven Help Us (1985)
Mischief (1985)
Heavenly Kid (1985)
My Bodyguard (1980)
Little Darlings (1980)
Class (1983)
Six Pack (1982)
Immediate Family (1982)
