Some deep cuts here. Mischief is quite the hidden gem. It has a great cast and it has a more intricate/emotional plot than most if not all teen sex comedies.
A Nightmare on Elm Street, my favorite movie, is one of the biggest reasons why I'm an insomniac. I started staying up late as a very small child. When my parents were together, I'd sneak out of bed and lie in my doorway, which was directly across from their open doorway, propped up on my elbows watching the late night sitcom reruns they'd have on, which included Sanford and Son. I'd jam out to that intro theme. Anyhow, I was attempting to avoid the terrible Freddy Krueger nightmares that I had growing up. The Nightmare movies were huge back then. We went to video stores a lot, and I don't think there was a single one that didn't have at least one Freddy poster or standee up. I also saw bits of the movies at friends' houses. Freddy's Dead was the first horror movie I ever finally mustered up the courage to watch from beginning to end. My mom had rented it and caught me up watching it in the middle of the night on a school night, so I had to stop it in the first 20-30 minutes. I rushed home from school the next day and watched it from beginning to end before she got home and I loved it. Despite that one not being too great to most people, it has a special place in my heart for being my first ever horror movie and I think it's a good first horror movie if a kid does happen to watch one who has otherwise been too scared of them. It's cartoony and silly enough to not be too scary, Freddy gets killed at the end, and the soundtrack is awesome.
Great List! Some I haven’t seen but added to the list. Completely forgot about bull Durham I may have had that on my list. Love that copy of the lost boys!
Thanks man! Bill Durham is a classic. And The Lost Boys was an exclusive collectors edition from Zavvi. They messed up everyone’s shipping on those badly.
WOW! your list was amazing love that you had Youngblood and Tuff Turf in your list and your number 1 is why I became a van damme fan love Bloodsport so much, I almost put these in my list I had them in my list but re did my list a number of times this list was so hard to do but so fun.
Awesome list, Bob. The Blob is one of the best remakes of that genre. I desperately need to re-watch both Porky’s movies. I’ve only seen the beginning of Mischief. 😂😂. RDJ gives an amazing performance in Zero. Yeah…I want Bloodsport too…just not at those prices. 😂😂😂. Great list. 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for watching Johnny! Glad to hear you feel the same way about some of these movies on my list. Definitely get around to a rewatch for Porky’s soon.
I marked out when you said Cobra. Over the Top is awesome, too. Both Cannon movies. I've yet to see Lock Up. They actually sold an Over the Top toy that this kid I knew had when I was growing up. It was a plastic electronic arm wrestling table top. It had a hand grip on each side and the "pinning blocks" or whatever on each side where you try to touch your opponent's hand and it would make a bell sound or something letting you know you won/lost. Rocky 3 was my favorite 80s Stallone movie because it's what I had for the longest time, just a recorded VHS copy from the video store, and it had a significant tracking problem before Rocky and Clubber fight for the first time where Apollo is on commentary.
So much I want to say. I loved this video. There's not a movie on your list that I think is garbage, although there's a handful I haven't yet seen. I need to see Mischief for sure. Bull Durham is very good, but it probably doesn't make my Top 10 baseball movies, but I'm blown away by how many baseball movies are good. I don't believe I've seen one that I hated and I've seen probably easily over 100 of them.
I saw Robocop, one of my Top 3, way too young and thought it was real. I thought the commercials and news stories in the movie were real, as I first saw it on home video, but thought it was on the TV. I actually cried when Robocop was being shot by the police, lol.
Hey Bob Love your list . I was 7 years old in 1980 so my list is going to be different . Being a kid back then Luca and Spielberg were the only filmmakers we knew by name. Oh and of course John Carpenter who always put his name above the film title and who thanks to Halloween gave nightmares for a few years. But here goes 1-Empire Strikes Back 2-Return of the Jedi 3-Raiders of the Lost Ark 4-Last Crusade 5-Back to the Future 6- E T 7-Star Trek 2 8-Temple of Doom 9-Fright Night 10-Aliens 11-The shining 12-Ghostbusters 13-Do The Right Thing 14-Stand By Me 15-The Untouchables 16-Cinema Paradiso ( I highly recommend it to film lovers ) the kid in the movie reminded me of myself and siblings going to the theaters and the magic of cinema on us and the whole audience) 17-Field of Dreams 18-parenthood 19- the karate Kid 20-Day Of The Dead 21-The Color Purple 22- First Blood 23-Lethal Weapon 24-Who Framed Roger Rabbit 25-Die Hard Loved seeing Flashdance on your list . Back then my father owned a shop near Times Square so I hanged out there a lot and there was more than a dozen theaters near by and I would love passing them and seeing the lobby cards and posters and trailers that always played outside the theaters and seeing long lines. Some movies would have long lines all day for more than a month.
No Robocop, Ghostbusters, or Nightmare on Elm Street? Well, those are my 3 favorite films of all-time. I really struggle to make definitive lists like this because so much depends on my mood on any given day/hour. I'd struggle like hell to make a Top 10, let alone a Top 25. Ghostbusters is my first memory in life. My literal earliest memory is me as a very small child pushing my family's Ghostbusters VHS tape into the VCR and playing it.
I liked Ghostbusters enough. But it’s not really my type of movie I would normally watch. And I waited way to long in life to check it out. I didn’t see it as a kid. But I didn’t mind it. A Nightmare On Elm Street could easily be close to my top 25.
Here's a few that are amazing 80's movies. Legend of Billie Jean Outsiders Boy's Next Door One Dark Night White Dog Secret Admirer St Elmo's Fire Rad Thrashin Johnny Be Good Monster Squad.
I think The Blob 4k isn't the 80's remake but the original 50's version, though. I'm not sure if I saw the 80's one myself. I was in my teens back then, so I probably did but I know I didn't own it.
I'm kind of surprised you don't have the 'Roadhouse' 4K from VS. Like you, 'Porky's' is in my top 25 and while 'Tuff Turf' isn't in my 25, I have another James Spader in it ('Sex, Lies & Videotape'), but I have 'Tuff...' and it is a good one. Of course, I think all of us have 'Back to the Future' in our Top 25. But I don't know why I forgot 'Bull Durham' when drafting my list. I still have the DVD, but the Criterion Collection BluRay is on the list for their next sale...
I have the 4K of Road House from Vinegar Syndrome. I just decided to show off a different copy. Lol. Hopefully you’re able to grab Bull Durham during the next Criterion sale.
Youngblood!! Who didn’t have a crush on Cynthia Gibb? I’ve been wanting to give that a rewatch to see if it was still good. And some good and unusual picks too. Digging all that Stallone love.
Great list . I have watched and own and love every title you showed. I wish I had bloodsport on a better format. Only have the dvd. Mischief is so good and underrated . Have it on dvd on a double feature with license to drive. Took me years to find for a good price. Any of these that didn't make my list could have. Since I said before we have alot of the same taste. Still trying to get marie to watch scarface. But the run time always stops her from watching. Marie and I made a video of ours. If you didn't see. If you need something to put you to sleep can put on. Haha
I’ll definitely have to check out your video. I did see that you put one up I just haven’t gotten around to it yet. I’m curious to see what’s on your list now.
I like The Terminator better than T2 despite having seen T2 first back when it first came out on home video. When I saw T2, I only knew Arnold to be a good guy in things, so I totally didn't get it when watching T2 when Arnold pulled the shotgun out of the roses box (Guns N Roses nod) that Arnold had been the bad guy in the first movie. At that point, I hadn't even seen Arnold in many movies. I had seen parts of Predator, parts of Twins, and Kindergarten Cop, and he was all over TV. Anyhow, I didn't really get the significance of that scene until seeing The Terminator, in which I was shocked and confused as to why/how Arnold was the bad guy. The first movie is more of a sci-fi Slasher with regular humans up against an unstoppable machine from the future and that just worked for me more than T2.
@@bobsblurays your wrong list. Easy to tell it’s not even your list. Your just trying to be different for the sake of being different. Not because you even like the movies on the list. So funny when people think they are rebels and counter culture when it comes to stuff like this 😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡

The greatest decade ever!!!! Music TV and movies!!!! I would have a hard time picking my top 25.
I totally agree with you.
Some deep cuts here. Mischief is quite the hidden gem. It has a great cast and it has a more intricate/emotional plot than most if not all teen sex comedies.
I completely agree. I’m glad you’re also a fan.
It was nice discovering 80s movies this month and re-watching ones I haven't seen in over a decade.
Heck yeah! The 80’s had so many great movies.
Who the hell is talking smack about The Karate Kid!? Movie Noobs! Great list Bob! A lot of my favorites fused with ones I've never seen.
Thanks Ken! So many gems in the 80’s. Hard to make a list of only 25.
A great list! I love many of these movies as well.
Thank you!

I have relatable stories like that. The first horror movie you watch always holds a special place in your heart.
Great selections Bob! I could have easily done a Top 50 because there are so many good ones.
Thanks Tony! It was definitely a challenge narrowing the list down to 25.
You're absolutely right noone puts baby in the corner 😊 great 25 Bob! Tuff Turf hands down top 5 for me!!! Ive watched it a million times!
Thanks Tiffany! I love to hear that Tuff Turf is a favorite of yours.
I missed the 80’s one but did a 70’s one.
Nice to see some love for Cobra. Pretty Stallone heavy list. 👍
Bloodsport 🔥
Awesone list!
I always love me some Stallone!
Great List! Some I haven’t seen but added to the list. Completely forgot about bull Durham I may have had that on my list. Love that copy of the lost boys!

The Rocky franchise is one of the best franchises ever made. I love Rocky III as well. I love basically everything that Stallone has done.
Great list Bob, nice to see some different titles that wont be on anyone else’s list. 🤟🏼
Thanks a lot! Hopefully you have a new recommendation or two.
The thing 🙏🏽🙏🏽✊🏽✊🏽

Thanks a lot. I honestly love 90% of the sports movies I watch. Like you said it’s a very few that I don’t like.
I saw Robocop, one of my Top 3, way too young and thought it was real. I thought the commercials and news stories in the movie were real, as I first saw it on home video, but thought it was on the TV. I actually cried when Robocop was being shot by the police, lol.
RoboCop is another great one that could’ve made my list.

Loved seeing Flashdance on your list . Back then my father owned a shop near Times Square so I hanged out there a lot and there was more than a dozen theaters near by and I would love passing them and seeing the lobby cards and posters and trailers that always played outside the theaters and seeing long lines. Some movies would have long lines all day for more than a month.
Forgot The Thing it would definitely be on my list
Thanks for sharing your list. You have some great titles on that list. I totally forgot to add The Untouchables to mine but it would’ve made it.

Here's a few that are amazing 80's movies. Legend of Billie Jean Outsiders Boy's Next Door One Dark Night White Dog Secret Admirer St Elmo's Fire Rad Thrashin Johnny Be Good Monster Squad.
Secret Admirer is really good. I enjoy that one a lot. I still need to see One Dark Night. I own it so hopefully I’ll get around to it soon.
Is it bad that I knew a lot of these movies , I love the blob did you see there getting a 4K!!! 🥹🥊🥰 awesome list bob
I think The Blob 4k isn't the 80's remake but the original 50's version, though. I'm not sure if I saw the 80's one myself. I was in my teens back then, so I probably did but I know I didn't own it.
The Blob from the 80’s is the one getting the 4K from Scream Factory.
@@bobsblurays thanks for the info. The poster art Ken showed Sun night looked like the original to me. Either way it looked cool.

No Star Wars, Indiana Jones or Ghostbusters means this list is invalid. Also Blade Runner. Shameful and embarrassing
