Alright everyone!
Here we are in Eighties! Funny haircuts, lots of fun, right in the Reagan era. Who's ready to make a list?
I need a list of your Top 25 movies from this decade! Any film that received its initial non-festival theatrical release between the dates of January 1, 1980 and December 31, 1989 will be eligible. If you aren't sure if something qualifies, please ask below and I or someone who knows better can respond.
A tentative deadline, I thought, could be mid-January, right after the holidays. Does January 17, 2021 work for everyone?
Of course, post as many FYCs as you want. I need them too!
Ready, steady, GO!

Awesome! .......... Dekalog counts? Good question! I would say that it doesn't count as a whole, to me it makes more sense to vote for single films of the Dekalog. What do you and the others think? |

 Major FYC to what'll be my #1 Jean de Florette/Manon of the Spring - also think we should consider them as one movie, as it was a single production. |

Don’t think this will be ignored but adding an FYC for my likely #1.  |

Literally just starting to work through the '80s, so I'll wait until closer to the deadline to send you a proper list (if you don't mind reminding me wilcinema !) As for now, though, I'll drop some FYCs: Die Hard (1988, dir. John McTiernan) The Naked Gun (1988, dir. Jerry Zucker) When Harry Met Sally... (1989, dir. Rob Reiner) Videodrome (1983, dir. David Cronenberg) Do the Right Thing (1989, dir. Spike Lee) Clue (1985, dir. Jonathan Lynn) The Evil Dead/Evil Dead II (1981/1987, dir. Sam Raimi) The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover (1989, dir. Peter Greenaway) Witness (1985, dir. Peter Weir) |

In addition to the ones I posted yesterday : Landscape in The Mist, L'Argent, In The White City, The Sacrifice - a couple more to add........the 80s are clearly where non-US films dominate for me at least.......   |

Major FYC to what'll be my #1 Jean de Florette/Manon of the Spring - also think we should consider them as one movie, as it was a single production. They were a single production but separate releases which I believe is the ultimate decisive factor in this case. I consider them two separate films, like I do the LOTR movies also. |
