Inner Space a movie that is definitly not worth your time to watch.....its just, hmm, I dont know, its not bad, but its not good either
Abyss can you keep a secret...Ive never seen this
Crossroads (with Ralph Macchio not the one with Britney Spears) ok, is this the one where he's teamed up with that old black blues singer? If so, Ive seen like 20 minutes of it ....
Starman:???
The Thing:???
The Karate Kid a classic 80s movie, but its nothing incredably special...it did though give me a bunch of material for jokes....especially when someone hurts themselves and I try to do that put heat on it thing
Cocktail good movie.....
Bladerunner a classic! a must see
Big its a good movie, but its one that I will probably never watch again because once is enough
Mask this aint the Jim Carrey one, this must be the Cher one.....if so, then its awful
Predator can you keep another secret? Ive never seen this one either
Mystic Pizza can you keep another secret, Ive never seen this one either
Purple Rain laughable...but great music
The Fog:???
The Fly well, its a classic....like Friday the 13th classic

That's funny, I would say just the opposite. Loved the 80's movie with Cher...hated the 90's movie with Jim Carrey!

My ratings for these movies:
Inner Space 2.75 It had its moments
Abyss 5 Loved this movie
Crossroads 3.5
Starman 3.5
The Thing 4.5 Great movie
The Karate Kid 3.5 The sequels were not the best but this one was good
Cocktail 3.75
Bladerunner 5 Fantastic movie
Big 3.5 Came out at the time where there were so many with basically the same storyline. This one was probably the best.
Mask 4
Predator 3.75
Mystic Pizza 3.75
Purple Rain 3
The Fog 3.75
The Fly 4.5 Nothing like Friday the 13th in my opinion

The Karate Kid
It was certainly an 80s film; 'Wax on, wax off . . .' - 3
Cocktail
Not my cup of tea. Though I never really thought much of Tom Cruise - 2
Big
Nice film from Tom Hanks. I agree with Billy on this, only watch it once - 3
Predator
Good straightforward movie, have a watch of it Billy, you might be pleasantly surprised - 4
The Fly
David Cronenberg has always been bizarre but The Fly took it to new levels in the 80s - especially the end scenes - 3
What? No 'Wierd Science'?
