Commando, it's just so funny.
Looks like we're not going down after all, so nevermind.

Predator would have to be my favorite.

Robocop, Aliens and Terminator are second.
I can't think of anything to put here right now.

Was The Terminator 2 made in the 80's or early 90's? I don't remember. And I'm too lazy to find out.

Die Hard, Rambo (all of them), Predator, the Indiana Jones films, the James Bond films of the decade, Beverly Hills Cop movies

That's a pretty good list Daft has up there. I like the addition of Die Hard as well.

Ghostbusters, Masters of the Universe (He-Man), and how could we forget Star Wars episodes V and VI?

Considering the awful fashion, terrible (for the most part) music and general faddy-ness of the 80s, it produced some ****ing brilliant films and cartoons.

Transformers the movie needs a nod, and I'll dunk in my vote for all of the above too, particularly the underrated Ghostbusters.
2006-04-16, 5:12 AM #29
Most mentioned above were great, though I don't remember Commando. :(

Ghostbusters was awesome, save for the damn giant marshmallow man.

When speaking about the 80's all that needs to be said is "Die Hard"

And the India Jones movies, if those were in the 80's
