1980's, movie and song

I used to love watching movies with my family and of course, my brothers. This full length movie was a dear favorite.

Let me know if you like it, have seen it or whatever... it is something to kick back and chill with..I might even take a snooze and listen to it as I must have seen three time's or so in my life.

Here is a friendly buddy song that makes one feel calm at home, what not... probably not for driving with though as it has relaxing effect,

Hers to a siesta🍕🍕🍕🍟🍟🍟

Ahhh the 80's , great decade for both music and film.
When I think of the 80's I think....


And the jukebox in the local pub playing....


Fine times.

I grew up on a steady diet of Ernest and Peewee Herman...





...I think that's big part of whats wrong with me.

Can't pick a song. Too many. One of the best movies of all time is the Princess Bride though. EVERYONE likes that one.

Sorry I don't really remember much of the 80s. Except that I was a post toasty.

Valley Girl with Nick Cage and Deborah Foreman - still my favorite from 1983. I was in HS and we all were dressing like "Valley Girls."

Best sound track too, with the Plimsouls -"Million Miles Away" and "I Melt With You" - Modern English.

Great Times. Great Memories.

Karate Kid was the first movie we owned after my parents got a VCR. My siblings and I watched it probably 100+ times. We could recite the entire movies dialog word for word. I was so pumped up after my first viewing, I was karate kicking things for months.

Enjoy this classic snippet from my childhood.

And I'd be remiss not to include this one:

You do not have to answer each post... just a touch base every now and then.

I love 80's era U2 and REM. Such great music. The Cure, Joy Division/New Order, The Alarm, Television, Sonic Youth... just some great stuff. And the movies were gooď too.

a reply to: TEOTWAWKIAIFF thanks, in'm feeling okay... and not the only one recalling the eighties..don't want grow up and into the future, sometimes reminiscing with friends is grand.
Lots of great stuff out of that era... even some fashion was okay.
