Besides Raiders, Aliens, andTerminator, they're all the definition of average action movies. It's like you were trying to prove my point
The 80s was not all high school kid movies.

Show us a list of movies from your generation that is worth a .
btw, I've got no problem saying the past 11 years in movies has been for the most part
and E.T. is an overrated kids movie
Platoon, Once Upon a Time in America, Blade Runner.
Since you were talking about all genres, add in a few like Raging Bull, Ran, Das Boot, etc
But once you get past all those, then you do have a point.

the 80s wasn't my favorite decade... for anything. There were some classic movies from then though.
Body Heat was great.
edit: looks like mouse's lists include pornos.
I couldn't remember if CaddyShack and Airplane came out in the late 70s or early 80s. Add those to my list.
EDIT: Forgot about Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Damn.
faces of Death Alone trumps all other non 80s genre.
I am not here to say 80s movies rule all movies. I am saying you can't come in here and bad mouth a decade before you after the fact. The earlier decades in movies didn't have laptops and bad ass 3D software like they do today.
I wouldn't allow anyone from the 80s to bad mouth the 60s. It's like Barry Bonds saying he can kick Babe Ruth's ass. Only an idiot would try to compare one generation to the next and not know how to be fair in his or her's opinions. I am sure Mike Tyson can kick Jack Dempsey's ass and Eddie Van Halen can kick Buddy Holly's ass in a guitar solo.
It's like when young kids say 70s Music and classic rock sucks when the artist of the 90s and today say it was bands like Aero Smith and Judas priest and others who inspired them.
If you can't comprehend any of this then your mental capability is weak and frankly there is really no need to address this issue any further.

Bruce Campbell All over my face

Did any one use curse words, or insult anyone?
Don't mistake being educated with getting someone's goat.
Man I wish I lived in the 80's.
hey cubansucks
how do you like the fact that i creampied your mother and she VOLUNTEERED to drink that out of a cup?
you worthless piece of e-
I liked the Beach. Trainspotting is in my top ten of all time. I also liked Shallow Grave. He did a great job with that one.
I didn't really care for Slumdog. Mira Nair's Salaam Bombay! is the best movie about India I have ever seen.
Nobody nominating the new Star Wars?
No Country for Old Men
I've only seen ' the Beach' once and not sure it was start to finish but yah quality enough to leave imprint in my memory
Don't know about overall best movie, but "Superbad" is the best comedy of all-time, imho.
American Pie did it first
Fair point. I just find Superbad more witty, funny and relatable. Also, Michael Cera and Jonah Hill >>>> anything American Pie has to offer in terms of acting.
So damn mean spirited & "he" wins. I can't do it.
The only problem I have is when he is exiled to the forest. It gets a little silly there after playing it straight all along the line.I've only seen ' the Beach' once and not sure it was start to finish but yah quality enough to leave imprint in my memory
That le belongs to Office Space tbh.
