People arguing over someone else's Favorite Movies list is a strange thing. I never bother making lists anymore but my most watched movies, and the Blu Ray discs on the shelf that I bought to replace DVDs shows what my favorites are. Almost all of my favorites are from the 1980s, late 1970s, and early 1990s.
@Stormtrooper535 ай бұрын
You definitely got some of my favorites. I love that you included The Burbs, totally under-rated movie.
@trejayrathore94805 ай бұрын
Great video, I have a lot of overlap with your list The Burbs; The Breakfast Club; Commando; The Lost Boys etc I haven't seen these films but I will be watching them shortly: Gleaming the Cube Krush Groove Valley Girl Thrashin Fast times at Ridgemont high Can't buy me love I personally would add: Pretty in Pink Real Genius Pump up the Volume Three OClock High Thanks for the video!

I love that this is YOUR list; and unapologetically so. But you fooled me on #1. I kept thinking the next John Hughes movie was going to be "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". Of course, having seen your Filming Locations for "Vacation", I guess I should have seen that coming.
@Rao_Rolland5 ай бұрын
Your list is like a combination of my mom's favorite movies, my wife's favorite movies and my favorite movies. The only ones on the list that I've never heard of was the skate boarding movies. I'm gonna check them out. I did learn about Wild Life from this channel and I love that movie.....You know at some point you're gonna have to do favorite albums. * fingers crossed *
@BreakTime101015 ай бұрын

Love your list. As a person around the same age, many of my favorites are not on your list. It's totally fine. People have their preferred taste. Boys N the Hood, The Breakfast Club, Back to the Future, I've seen. The rest were not on my radar back then. At least I have never watched the movie all the way through. My list would include: The Empire Strikes Back Superman 2 Lethal Weapon Die Hard Beverly Hills Cop Star Trek 2 Back to the Future Batman Ghostbusters Breakin Mannequin The Karate Kid There are so many more. Glad to hear your opinion. Maybe I'll need to finally watch some of your choices in full to have a better appreciation for them. Keep your list coming. Thanks!

It all depends on the type of taste of each person and I think that those of us who were born in the mid or late 70's and were able to live the wonderful 80's enjoyed the best time in the world and I am sure that our dream would be to travel to the past! something that those who had their childhood in the 90's do not think the same and I would say that in my childhood I adored and still adore adventure movies and for me the N1 would be The Goonies where those types of movies left you dreaming and thinking about the movie you just saw! I love the 80's, I love this channel and I love your content!!
@vicenzor36255 ай бұрын
Being a child in the 80s was a lot different than being an adult. Not so great. The brink of nuclear destruction in 1981 and close a few more times that decade. AIDS epidemic hit and at first people didn't know it was only a blood/sex transmission. Everyone was scared shitless they'd catch it or their kids would catch it and get a death sentence. Then comes inflation, the crack epidemic, etc. You were shielded as a kid so oblivious to what was happening. That's why you remember it as the "greatest decade".

Ya, you are correct, your fav movies. I do agree with your list. I just have not seen them in so long I would not know what one to have first or last. If I could get myself to sit back and watch them all, again, I would. I have not seen any of those films in more than a decade. They do grab you attention and keep that attention. I do not have a problem with you list because all those movies are great. Also, I have not seen Valley Girl since the 80's when my uncle recommended us to watch it. I do not recall it but I do remember it to be funny. And the Def Jam movie, it does ring a bell but nothing is coming back on that movie. No, I do enjoy your list. Lots I could say about all those movies, but I have not seen them in so long, I should take the time to watch some of them. Thanks, as usual for reminding me of old gems of movies. These are classics, and should have more advertising to younger audiences so these films are not forgotten and many more.
