I did like Matthew Broderick in War Games

Whats funny is to watch an 80s movie now with a computer in it lol

They are all black screens with green text...nothing else.

Haha remember how generic Whoopi Goldburgs computer was texting Jack in ' Jumpin Jack Flash?'

Wow tech moves fast

Can't believe I hadn't gotten this one yet.

Sheesh, I'm slipping in my old age.

I was never particularly fond of this song but I had a high school boyfriend who absolutely loved it:

The only winning move is not to play.
How about a nice game of chess?

Would you like to play a game?


Ah, the era of John Hughes films. Hope this isn't horrid, but truly the most amazing screen kiss.... sigh... I identified with Watts (the girl) so much. SO MUCH.

I see your mention of chess and counter with this:

I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine!

Not much between despair and ecstasy...

Be careful while watching The Fixx brother, cause ya know, 1 thing leads to another!
I hear you Brother, and that's why I'm going stag. I had to say goodbye to the potential "Mrs. Utah" because she basically ruined the Def Leppard concert this past Saturday and that ain't happening with The Fixx. Hence, why I'm on the Singles Forum now. :) Oh how I love the 80's!

I had no idea there was so much love for the 80's here! I love the 80's and was fortunate enough to grow up during that time. I used to think that I only loved it because that's when I grew up, but now I see that it's not just me. That there really was something special about that decade..

It was also the decade when I started drumming...

Mia, may I ask, how did you come to like things of the 80's anyway?

I'm really curious because I can admit that I was NEVER interested in the things from, let's say, the 60's or 70's, which were the previous generations before me...

However, my Grandpa's favorite era was the 1940's and so I really like some of the fashions, cars (he grew up watching the transition from horse-drawn buggies to "horseless carriages" for the first time), and music from that era.

Thank you for this thread. It's really made me smile. :)
I think I fell in love with the 80s movie and 80s love songs. Some of my best friends from church grew up in the 80s and we would sit down and watch endless 80s movies.

You're very welcome seoulsearch. I'm happy to hear everyone's 80s likes/dislikes and experiences.

Walking down memory lane. :)

80s seem to be a happy period in time.

Cool music. Thanks for sharing! :)

Sadly todays music can be quite repetitive.. and blatantly insulting.

I don't know if that's true..... Or if it is? They aren't playing their typical instruments, because as a guitarist, I could fake playing a bass better than that.
