5-Points 3,405 Posted May 25, 2022 You all have mentioned movies that were on my list that I didn't take. I'll add: Used Cars Dr Detroit Hot Dog: The Movie - (pure cheese but it was funny as a kid) The Sure Thing Uncle Buck Overall I'm pretty happy with my picks. I wanted Airplane! in the first round for sure. And I knew I wanted Fast Times early. I think my horror category is good. Sci-Fi is 50/50. I'm happy with my comedies. I waited too long on mystery and had to scramble on that one. Credit to all you guys for drafting what and when you did. You all had me constantly adjusting my strategy. I tried to zig when you guys were zagging but I never could count on what I wanted next to be there when my turn came. Had a blast! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You took a lot of other picks I wanted as well like On Golden Pond & Poltergeist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Bro but took Outsiders and think Tommy took Rumble Fish , Both good movies from the same author SE. Hinton. I took That Was Then.. This Is Now as a wildcard cause it was supposed to be a sequel to those movies. Also was a very good movie too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herbivore 1,118 Posted May 29, 2022 My Write Up I love my squad. The best movies in the 80s were comedies & action. I am loaded in both. All other categories are pretty top loaded. I do love my Horror picks. I think the category drops off steeply after the first 8 or so. In retrospect, I don't think I would do anything different. I did debate but went Highlander over Hoosiers, and really thought Body Double would last longer. Those are the 2 that got away. Drama I think is especially weak in the 80s, so I went with personal favorites. I imagine that most have seen every movie I picked, but if you have not, check out Three O'clock High. It is hilarious and unique. Don't Fock this up Mitchell! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
