I know its not Television but I thought your 80's expertise could help on the matter. Okay....we did a video of this in our youtube video channel in the link below, so feel free to watch it and comment. We just could not decide on a top 10 80's movies list so we decided to let our subscribers choose between movies. Here is the list. If you had to pick one for each slot, which movies would you choose?

10. Karate Kid or Bloodsport

9. Nightmare on Elm St. or Friday the 13th or Evil Dead

8. Lethal Weapon or Die Hard

7. Terminator or Robocop

6. The Breakfast Club or Footloose

5. Rocky IV or Rambo: First Blood

4. Goonies or Lost Boys

3. Batman or Beetlejuice

2. Return Of the Jedi/Empire Strikes Back or Indiana Jones The Last Crusade/ Temple of Doom

1. Ghostbusters 1 and 2 or Back to the Future 1 and 2

Let us know! For the video on the subject check the link below. Thanks

10. Karate Kid (the human story stands the test of time and holds up to repeat viewings)
9. Nightmare on Elm St. (far more original than the others)
8. Lethal Weapon (close one)
7. Terminator (more suspenseful and stands the test of time more)
6. The Breakfast Club (the human story thing again...Footloose had a silly premise IMO)
5. Rambo: First Blood (another close one...both sucked)
4. Goonies (another close one, but Goonies are good enough for me...yeah, I went there)
3. Beetlejuice (test of time again)
2. Return Of the Jedi/Empire Strikes Back (close again)
1. Back to the Future 1 and 2 (because Ghostbusters 2 sucked big time)
Please do not attack me for my opinions...we're all entitled to them.
