Kid's favorite 80s movies!

whatever I say 80s movies is there one particular one that you would call your

favorite and still stands the test of time.

That is so hard for me.

6 0 1 9 9 5 1 1 7 if you want to let us know your favorite 80s movie.

I found this list of the 12 that really stand stand up.

Okay, even in 2026.

This is no particular order just randomly.

I don't know how they even compiled this.

But ET the extra to rest real.

Oh, I guess I didn't remember that.

I thought that was a 90s movie.

Dave texted the breakfast club and that is also on the list.

Then the shining Star Wars Episode 5.

Was that the first one?

Was Episode 5 the first one?

No, Episode 4 would have been the first one.

Which I think did come out in the 70s.

I think that whole gimmick with the messed up out of order movies for Star Wars.

I think that turned me off to like all science fiction movies.

Back to the future on the list.

Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

Top Gun, Rain Man, Dirty Dancing, Dead Poets Society.

And my favorite 80s movie of all time, The Goonies.

Oh wow.

Have you ever seen The Goonies?

That's one I haven't seen.

I can't believe you haven't seen The Goonies is so good.

It's another one of those movies that definitely couldn't be made today.

Yeah, it was made in 1985.

So how about you, 601-995-1017?

Hannah says, I would die if I could never watch the Princess bride again.

Also, back to the future.

An honorable mention to the labyrinth.

Oh wow.

So I grew up like my parents loved 80s movies.

And there were a ton that we watched a bunch.

And so there were a few on that list that it's like, yes, I love them.

But I feel like one set weren't on that list

that I love so much.

We're big.

I love that movie.

And I also love Groundhog Day.

Christopher said the gif of The Truffle Shuffle,

which was a dance move from the 80s.

Oh.

That's hilarious.

Rachel says, weird signs.

Oh yeah, that was quirky and fun.

You know, it's weird because it seems like 80s movies were so good.

How could 80s movies be so good,

but 80s music sucks so bad?

Well, I mean, I think you know, we could put only so much energy

into a certain thing at a time all went into the movies.

601-995-1017.

It's mini-man check-in time.

So in honor of these iconic 80s movies that still hold up,

stand the test of time, I wonder if kids today have any knowledge.
