Default Suggest 80s movies with 80s stuff on it!!

Hi, I keep on watching movies with 80s stuff, like when I was a kid, and I love it, seen stuff I used to get, food, toys, clothing, the way of living, etc-

So I was wondering if you could suggest some titles, like the ones Ill post below, that show stuff like that:

Some that come to mind now:

Luke
The goonies.
Big
Super 8 (even though its modern its pretty faitfull)
Princes bride (the storytelling part of it)
The lost boys
Stand by me
Gremlins


THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Gus

Night Of The Creeps (1986) has some great 80's stuff in it. Oh, and The Blob (1988) has some too.

Check out the 'stars' of the 80's and go source films they were in. Like Back to the Future has been suggested (and rightly so), check out M J Fox other titles around that time for ultimate 80s.. Secret of My Success, Bright Lights Big City.

Also 80's was a good decade for James Spader, Rob Lowe, Robert Downey Jr, Judd Nelson and 'The Brat Pack'..see St. Elmo's Fire, Less Than Zero etc.

Check out Crocodile Dundee

Awesome topic! I too had a craving for 80s movies when I started building my Blu-ray collection. As a kid growing up in the early 90s I loved 80s movies! Even back in the early 90s the 80s seemed so much different than the time I was living. While there are a bunch of good films from the 80s I believe what you're seeking are movies that defined what the 80s were all about and from my understanding these films should fill your desire:

Black Rain
Rocky IV
Over the Top (Loved this one as a kid).
The Lost Boys (Other than the vampire part this seemed to defy what it was like in the 80s)
Robocop (Seemed to address the crime and violence of the 80s in the United States).
The Terminator
This is Spinal Tap
E.T.

Here is a list of some other films made in the 80s that may not be exactly what you're looking for in your topic but they may still interest you:

Aliens
Blade Runner
Conan the Barbarian
Escape from New York
Full Metal Jacket
Gandhi
Highlander
The Name of the Rose
Predator
Rambo: First Blood Part II
Rambo III
Ran
The Thing
The Living Daylights (James Bond 007)
Licence to Kill (James Bond 007)
