Great Old Movies!! - Kenji - 06-21-2008
Libby Wrote:Old for ME, there is a generation gap.I like 80s movies a lot, actually. Example of big generation gap: I hated Tron, because the stoy line wasn't the best, and the special effects were so obvious and old fashioned.
Yeah, I like 80s movies,too.
But you hate TRON..? Well, I went to a theatre see it, and the stoy line wasn't the best, but that computer graphic animation was cool at the '80s. Though now I can say it's old fashioned...
My favorite '80s movies
Back To The Future trilogy
The Last Starfighter
Lifeforce
Krull
Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back
Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan
Footloose
Street of Fire
Young Guns
E.T.
Bladerunner
Raiders of the Lost Ark
etc, etc...

I just saw The Maltese Falcon for the first time today! I loved the part where Bogart slaps the guy in the face three or four times!
