on those 80's movies (last board) how many were seen in the 80's

Posted by Lafarrow (aka lafarrow) Oct 5 '22, 11:54

seen all multiple times by the 2020's

if you said seen in a theater then not all, if you said only in theaters, or how many on VHS or Beta or HBO or Cinemax or other pay network the number changes

I bet most completed the list on TV at some point

In theater: ET, Die Hard, Bill & Ted. Others in 80s via HBO/rental. 90s: Raging Bull, Broadcast News, Outisiders, Heathers, Stand by Me, Mystic Pizza -- nm - Max Oct 5, 12:22
