I think it should be the 90's you ask\n\nthe 80's gave us entertainment.\n\noh it had its flaws but not many.\n\nSome of the lowest box office hits were the best.. \n\nHoward the Duck sucked... funny but sucked.\n\nnow how can anyone put down Weekend at Bernie's? part 2 sucked.... but a man who can play himself dead is good.\n\nGrease 2.. now that sucked.\n\nPolice Academy's ruled and cant wait for Final Assignment (in the works). \n\ngee i cant think of many bad ones.. they all were good in some way or another.

BURGER TIME!!!  I was a child of the 80's too!  It was Intellevision..I loved Dungeons and Dragons with that system.  I loved Missing Persons, Yaz, The Cure, The Cult, Sisters of Mercy, Duran Duran.  Big hair, Neon colored lipstick.  "Do they know it's Christmas"  All of the John Hughes movies...All of it!

Oh gosh! Where do I start!  The very last movie we went to see was "Ice Age 2 The Melt Down" We all loved it! Sid and the squirrel crack me up! Other movies would be......\n\n1. Snow White......This one takes me back to my childhood! This was my favorite Disney "Cartoon" type movie when I was a kid. I was just awed by the Diamond Mine scene. It was so pretty!\n\n2. Cinderella.........What little girl(and older woman) doesn't want to be a princess? So beautiful and so magical.\n\n3. Mary Poppins..........Another one of my favorite movies and I sing the Lullaby song to the children. LOL, well I guess it is actually an Un-Lullaby song. "Stay Awake"  I always wanted to be able to jump into those chalk pictures!\n\n4. Wizard of Oz..........True Magic! Beautiful music. When it goes from black and white to color it is so magical! \n\n5. Aladdin...........We loved this movie and we own the soundtrack. I love the Genie!\n\n6. Little Mermaid.......I love Mermaids and Sebastian is GREAT! We own the soundtrack for this one too.\n\n7. Lilo & Stitch.........Great movie and fantastic music! \n\n8. Ice Age............Loved it!\n\n9. The Lion King..........Funny and beautiful, I still cry when the Simba's Father dies! We own the soundtrack.\n\n \n\n\nThe list goes on and on! We own so many Disney movies and soundtracks. I think Disney is great at creating movies that both the young and young at heart will love.\n\nWe are going to see "The Wild" today..........It looks great and we are really looking forward to seeing the movie.\n\n\n@--->---

I grew up in the 80's so it's hard to pick just one.  The Smurfs, Transformers, G-Force, Herculoids, Go-Bots, Thundercats and Voltron.  The 80's was definitly the beginning of the cartoon boom.

1980s Science Fiction\n\nThe 1980s continued the trend of more emphasis on Earth-based, "future life" science fiction movies. The only significant exceptions to this trend were the "Star Trek" series (1980 onwards), "Flash Gordon" (1980), "Outland" (1981), "Dune" (1984), and "The Last Starfighter" (1984). A new trend in this decade was an increasing amount of reliance on "action-adventure" plots with a coincidental "science fiction" setting. Among the more prominent of these were "Outland" (1981), "Blade Runner" (1982), "The Terminator" (1984), and "The Abyss" (1989). I'll have more to say on this topic in the 1990s directory. Again I was unable to cut my list down to only ten, so, I present my "Top 15" science fiction movies of the 1980s.\n\nMovie Clip\n\nFinal Countdown\n(1980 - 104 min) ****\n\nPlot: A modern-day aircraft carrier is time-warped to the night before the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and is given the opportunity to stop the attack before it happens.

Try going to a thrift store for some older music and games. If you're not sure what games came out in the 80's, check out Milton Bradley's website (hasbro.com/games)\nAlso check out the local library--more modern ones have CD's (even movies).  The library will probably have some older cookbooks too.\nThe local video rental store would also be a good place to go for movies--if you are not sure what to get, ask the salespersons--often there is a movie-geek there that would love the challenge. \nI suggest Back to the Future, Weird Science, and The Breakfast Club, to name a few.  If you go to amazon.com you can find a listing (Listmania!)of the most popular movies of the 1980's.\nGood luck.

Answering your q's in reverse order, i actually have seen all of them, from Wings(1927) to Crash(2K6).  As a second generation movie geek, Dad was instrumental in teaching me the history of film(Pop owns about 11K, no, i'm not kidding, 11,000 movies.  He's been collecting since the first VCR came out in '76, and prerecorded movies were first released in '77.  To put this in perspective, your local Blockbuster carries about 14K titles.)  My personal opinion?  Godfather 2('74).  Most of the time, tho, the best picture is not the one that wins('97...was Titanic better than L.A. Confidential?  Ummmmn, no.)  What are ya gonna do?  That's Hollywood....
