The best film of the 80s...

[Tallulah]

I was a sucker for films like Ferris Beuler's Day Off, The Breakfast Club, St Elmo's Fire etc...

I was always thinking about running away to America just so that I could attend high school over there [:I]

I was also a fan of films like Brewsters Millions, The Tall Guy and War Games - always the ones with happy endings and no killing - owt for a happy life!

TURN THOSE FROWNS RIGHT SIDE ROUND!

I was thinking Ghostbusters even before reading the main message. That was buy far my fave film of the 80s. I went to watch it for my birthday with 4 mates.

The Library Ghost REALLY scared my mate, so much so that he covered his face up and screamed like a small girl. At the time he was VERY traumatised, but apparently his rehabilitation went well, and he's returned to be a fully functioning member of the community.

So Ghostbusters gets my vote.

And Gremlins. [:I]

That which does not kill us, only makes us stranger.

Without a doubt the best film of the 1980s was Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Definitely. Without a shadow of a doubt. Or was it Ghostbusters? Actually, the Burbs was pretty good too...

So what WAS the best film of the 80s?
