I guess I missed rule #3... Sorry....

Lol, well it was more than 3 but (slightly) less than 100.

To be honest, I probably couldn't have limited myself to 3. There are so, so many 80's movies that I love.

 

[Majorrich]

Tbh, I’ve seen a goodly number of these.

 

[NurseDave]

I especially like your #1.

Thread killer.

To be fair...I didn't say you had to limit yourself to three...just three per post.

Next time I will read a little more carefully before I hit the reply button. I was just too excited about the topic, I guess.

 

[CVargo]

Geez you all are old. I guess that's what I get for being born in 89

I'm concerned that you might be serious.


Have you seen this?

 

[Bad Badger]

Three Amigos

(I personally think its one of the funniest movies ever made... but I know many will disagree).

 

[TobyC]

CVargo must have me gumped, or just doesn't like me.

How about Flashpoint, with Kris Kristofferson?

 

[beginish]

Three Amigos

(I personally think its one of the funniest movies ever made... but I know many will disagree).

I love that movie.

 

[Bad Badger]

ok, here's another awesome movie that I love to watch and is super cheezy... and lots of people hate:

"Round House" with Patrick Swayze
