MOFO 80's Teen Movie Hall of Fame

Hope you have a good night sleep MG.

I'm always down for Weird Science! I have the laser disc and was meaning to pump it thru some beefy surround sound soon. Now's my chance.

I just seen one of the girls from Weird Science (not Kelly LeBrock), in something but I can't remember in what. I think she was in one of the noms for the B movie HoF?

Night of the Creeps...she was the blonde sorority girl. Suzanne Snyder..she's still smoking hot, too.

I used to say that to girls when I had coke.

Take care of yourself. Go to the doctor, find out what's wrong, and get well soon.

Don't worry about us or this HoF. We'll muddle through without you for a while.

@Larry, Great choice.

I have the DVD of Weird Science, but I've never watched it. Hubby keeps telling me it's a fun movie, but I just haven't made time for it yet. Now I have a good reason to watch it.

Please see a doctor, and take a good care of yourself. Take care.

Love,
Mr Minio.

Look, I'm not judging you - after all, I'm posting here myself, but maybe, just maybe, if you spent less time here and more time watching films, maybe, and I stress, maybe your taste would be of some value. Just a thought, ya know.

I watched Say Anything and Can't Buy Me Love yesterday, and I started watching Better Off Dead, but that's when I just couldn't keep my eyes open anymore, so I'll have to watch it again tomorrow.

I haven't had a chance to get my thoughts together about these movies yet, but I just wanted to mention something that I noticed. Even though they're kind of similar teen movies, there's a big difference in the way they portray reality.

Say Anything is a much more realistic movie than the other two movies. The characters are almost depressed through much of the movie.

However, Can't Buy Me Love has some parts that feel realistic, but there's an unrealistic side to the movie in the way that he's able to buy his way into the world of the "cool kids".

In contrast, Better Off Dead feels like much more of a fantasy movie than reality. The story itself is realistic, in that his girlfriend broke up with him and he doesn't want to live without her, but he seems to have hallucinations throughout the movie.

I'm not saying that any of these are better or worse than any other. I just thought it was an interesting side of these movies.

Finally getting started on this and watching Teen Wolf before my subscription expires. Review in a bit

I was disappointed...

Fingers crossed my dear, and hope you feel better! DO take care of yourself!!

"I wanna butter your muffin," is STILL a running joke in our house. In fact, just yesterday.

and yeah, GREAT Nom @Larry! Even considered this one and was hoping someone would nominate it.

Haha. NICE!

Thanks guys. So...do we start watching the movies now or wait til they're pitted against each other or something. I'm a noob.

yYou can watch the movies in your leisure, just b4 the deadline..check very 1st page for all that info..what you do is, watch a film, write somethign about it when you can, and once everyone watches the films and writes/discusses, they send in a numbered list from 1-whatever..ranking their fave as #1 and their least as #whatever..but..the lowest number.

From there a tally is done up and a winner is announced..but as an honorary member I'm not sure how the end result works into all of that.

For the time being, just relax, join the film watching and discuss...to me, this isn't so much a competition as it is a cool way to be in a movie club.

The movies are pitted against each other, like in a movie tournament.

Think of yourself as being on the Music or Sports Hall of Fame council to indoctrinate a worthy candidate into the Hall of Fame. That's what all of us are doing.

Check this out, it will explain link

Oh man, I got confused for a min thinking I had to answer because of our B movie II HoF lol..speaking of shich, I still have some films to watch there....I need to FOCUS!!!!

That's cause you work so many hours, that half of you is still on the job I was reading the shoutbox, you're like Rush's Working Man for sure. Yikes, I hope your works hour get better someday.

Oh crap!!!! I mistyped! The movies are NOT pitted against each other.
