But yeah the hair and music.... oh god the hair and music was awful.

THIS is what I'm talking about. Plus, Ghost Busters, Top Gun, the first three Indiana Jones movies, Star Wars Empire Strikes back and Return of the Jedi, Risky Business, Beetlejuice, Die Hard, Raising Arizona, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, BIG, Beverly Hills Cop, Caddy Shack... and those are just ones I could name off the top of my head.

Sure, most of them are just action or comedies, but 80s was like the king for movies of that nature. 80s was honestly the best decade for movies that I've been on this planet for.

Kubrick's best work: The Shining and Full Metal Jacket. Both products of the 80s.

Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2. Awesome.
