What they should of talked about in I Love The 80's.


I know several movies that they didn't talk about in the I Love The 80's series.

The Evil Dead
The Secret Of NIMH
The Black Cauldron
Return To Oz
An American Tail
The Land Before Time
Troop Beverly Hills
Batman
All Dogs Go To Heaven

Anyone know anything else they should of talked about?

The Lost Boys :D?
well the Two Coreys were already talked about

Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight?

reply

I don't remember, but did they ever mention Xanadu in any of the 3 installments?

They really didn't talk about that many horror movies other than An American Werewolf In London, A Nightmare On Elm Street and Friday The 13th. Yeah, The Lost Boys would've been cool. Who CARES if they already discussed the two Coreys? I mean, they talked about Predator TWO FREAKIN TIMES. Maybe Hellraiser, Return of the Living Dead, C.H.U.D or basically the major explosion of the slasher market with all the knockoffs. Maybe also Critters or Ghoulies.

As for non-horror movies, what about Uncle Buck and The Great Outdoors? Or Cloak & Dagger and Mac & Me?

For television shows and cartoons, howabout Kids Incorporated, Kidd Video, M.A.S.K, Inhumanoids, or Bionic Six?

And considering that they've done Disneyland Paris on the "I Love the 90s" series, they should do Tokyo Disneyland (which opened in 1983).

For movies, they should also do "She's Gotta Have It", "Breakin'", "Labyrinth", "The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas" and "The Great Muppet Caper".

For products, one thing they could do is Lazer Tag.

here's how they could do the new '80s show (which I'll call I Love the '80s 4 Ever). I'll use different colors to separate everything. Red will be used for movies, green for anything television or video game related, blue for anything music related, orange for fads/products and purple for world events.

Here is a sample episode for I Love the '80s 4 Ever: 1985.

Ghoulies
Kids Incorporated
"We Built This City" by Starship
Titanic wreckage found and filmed
The Equalizer
The Witness
M.U.S.C.L.E.
The Return of the Living Dead
Moonlighting
"The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis and the News
Mikhail Gorbachev
Super Mario Bros.
Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley marry
The Jewel of the Nile
Greenpeace's Rainbow Warrior
Compact discs
The Gummi Bears/The Wuzzles
The Color Purple
McDLT
"You Give Good Love" by Whitney Houston
Return To Oz

What do you think of that idea for an episode?
