Movie Theme of the Week!

I'm a little confused. Was Judd Nelson an 80's action star?

JEAN-CLAUDE VAN DAMME!!!

Neither Judd Nelson nor Charlie Sheen are 80's action stars.

Well, although it's not the kind of typical, silly 80's action movie you'd expect from Arnold or Sly or someone else, Charlie Sheen was in Platoon.

Charlie Sheen was in Red Dawn, I just chose him in Ferris Bueler's Day Off because I enjoyed that movie a bit more.

All this is true and, I can't say I'm fussed either way. So long as the poster who chose the theme doesn't object, it shouldn't matter to anyone else. However, being in a couple of action films isn't the same as being an Action Star, IMO.

Had it been 90's action stars, then Sheen would've been a good choice.

Woops... I didn't see the word 'action'.

Erm... ok...

Ahh Steven Seagal, I had to google that, don't think I've ever seen the movie, not really a big Seagal fan myself but that's just my opinion.

If you can stomach him, it's one of his better films.

I'll check it out when I get a chance, I've got a long list of movies to watch before I can get around to that.

Yeah, in Nico, he actually tries to act and show emotion, whereas soon after he got to comfortable playing the deadly badass.

Nice choice, Tyler!

yeah i'd say Chuck qualifies

When I think of an action 80s movie, one of the first thing that comes to mind is Top Gun 1986 so I'm going with Tom Cruise. I know most of his earlier movies are more drama or comedy, but now that he's a big action star (well, many of his movies) I found he still works!!

The Outsiders 1983


YAY, we have a new addition to the list.
