I used to be a Red Dawn man.  But lately I'm warming up to American Ninja.  "HE POSSESS GREAT SKIRL!"

LOLOLOL! Completely funny ~ Thanks for the great laugh. :rofl  I'm not really into action movies.  But with a husband & 3 sons I get to see every stinking one of them.   I'll think about 80's movies later & repost. :)

Red Dawn is in a class of it's own. WOLVERINES!!!!!

Some of my 80's favs:

Big Trouble in Little China
Escape From New York (Yeah, John Carpenter rocks!)
Commando
Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins

and the mother of all movies...
The Right Stuff

Not sure if most would classify it as an "action movie" but I do and that's what counts.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Red Dawn - If you don't understand it, you're tooooo young!

What about all of those Chuck Norris flicks milled out during the mid-80s?

Was hot?  She's not hot now?

MILF's are the ****...

Anyway, how could anyone forget Cobra.  Probably only beaten on the cheesy scale by Commando.

The director of the Running Man should be shot.  He had a very interested dirty / gritty script already written, and he goes and ****s it up so bad.
