Forgotten Movies from the 80s! - Vol. 2

[@erictorres9906]

I think about Disorganized Crime ALL THE TIME, but I forgot the name of it until I watched this video. LOVED that movie. The Dream Team is another great forgotten 80s gem.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Definitely 2 underrated movies with strong ensembles.

Great channel man! Amazing how the more films you see, the more you seem to forget!

100% agree there! He was great in that.

[@sgtpepr6260]

Yes!

[@williamkidney6031]

Some others that come to mind, silly comedies like, Young doctors in love, Moving violations, Easy money, (Rodney Dangerfields first solo movie) Jekyll and Hyde together again and Used cars, with Kurt Russell

[@frijolero6048]

[@jesseswarbrick7895]

80s were truly a magical time for movies...Soo many gems from that era....Hope to see some of these on future videos like Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Wise Guys, Batteries Not Included, Brewsters Millions, Harry and The Hendersons, Back To School, The Couch Trip, Club Paradise, The Squeeze, Mr Mom, Troop Beverly Hills, Jumpin Jack Flash, Fatal Beauty, Three Oclock High

I broke a rib laughing at the movie theater scene on bachelor party. When i was a wee young lad. Lol

Bachelor Party is the standard which I judge all other Tom Hanks movies. If you had HBO in the 80s, you got to see many of these movies in regular rotation.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Ahmen Stanley! HBO and Cinemax was where I watched all the classics from Porky's, Up the Creek, Ski School, Hot Dog: The Movie and so many more!

[@StanleyRunk]

@@MoviesNeverSayDie yeah. HBO and Cinemax were quite well rounded. They gave you the big blockbuster hits, but they also played both classics of yesteryear and small cult stuff as well.

[@JoeDredd2012]

Fantastic job on both Vol 1&2 you choose very underrated flicks indeed I always loved ''Eye of The Tiger'' from 1986 and such I always felt that the road buddy action comedy ''Real Men'' is very overlooked especially since I always loved both John Ritter&Jim Belushi characters in that and it's very silly tone. BTW have you ever seen ''Night of The Juggler'' from 1980 with James Brolin? That's a very underrated urban action thriller which sadly was never releashed on DVD or Blu Ray the only way to watch that film is on KZbin for free there's A rip from Cinemax that's in very great HD quailty that's the best version to watch of that flick IMHO.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

I'll have to seek out Night of the Juggler it sound fun just from the title and from being an 80s release!

[@thehackmusician]

Loved moving

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Same here, not Pryor's best but a strong comedy nonetheless. Thanks for watching!

[@straingedays]

Did a little happy dance for your inclusion of Organized Crime, it's one of the first movies taped on our first VCR. Only had a few tapes, so watched it well into the high dozens of times. Still watch it a few times a year and its jokes have surprisingly never gotten old.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Haha thats awesome! I remember some of those films from my small collection I watched dozens of times. That film has a great ensemble for sure! Great sense of humor!

I already have Manhunter, Tequila Sunrise, and Disorganised Crime on my to-watch list. I have though now thanks to you, added to it Moving, Bachelor Party, and Hot Pursuit. I watched Romancing The Stone earlier this year. I enjoyed it, but because i believe 84 is such a great year it doesn't even make my personal top twenty of 84, but it is a good film.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

You know I think 84 could be my favorite year of film. It was at least the year I REALLY got into movies! Thanks for watching!

[@maximusprime3459]

Bright Lights, Big City showed Michael J. Fox wasnt all about the comedy. His performance is just heartbreakingly perfect in that film. The movie Light of Day with Joan Jett is another overlooked dramatic turn of his.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Completely agree! I have Light of Day on my watchlist I haven't seen it in easily more than 25 years! I loved the variety of roles Fox took on for sure! Legend!

[@guyincogneto8979]

One that is more relevant today than when it was made is, The Survivors. Starring Robin Williams, Walter Matthau and Jerry Reed. Great comedy about a guy getting sucked into the "survivor" craze of the 1980s that now a days would be the whole Trump thing. Give it a watch, you'll see what I mean.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Definitely a strong comedy! I forgot all about it! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@Laceykat66]

I went to a lot of movies in the 1980s and I do not remember "Moving" at all. Thank you for shining a light on this forgotten title. "Back to the Beach" is a real gem and I wish it was more available. "Bachelor Party" is one of those movies I am glad I saw in my younger days but have no desire to see again. Like "Porkey's" it was a product of its time and we should all just move on. 😄😄 Great list and I may look up some of these titles, but I have to say that "Romancing the Stone" is hardly "forgotten." It is still one of the most popular "romcoms" out there. Keep up all your great work.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Thanks for watching! I saw Paramount put together a Back to the Beach blu-ray release that looked nice, seeing the movie in higher res would be cool. Yeah many of the 80s raunch coms feel overly stale when trying to watch with now. I guess more people do remember Romancing that I thought, which is understandable, Douglas and Turner were a dynamite duo!

[@benisrael2948]

Yes the 1980s has a lot of great movies and like you mentioned in the video Romancing the Stone have that Indiana Jones feel to it also the movie Jewel of the Nile

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

I watched both of them recently and they hold up surprisingly well.

[@gweilo5565]

[@jimthar17]

Love Romancing The Stone and Bachelor Party. Watched Tequila Sunrise recently after not having seen it since it's release and it was just kinda MEH to me. Was kinda boring. I've been curious about Moving for while as I've seen i a lot on Tubi so now maybe I'll give it a go. Eye of the Tiger reminds me a lot of Walking Tall. I remember watching Back To The Beach a lot on TV way back when. I always remember the line. "that sucked!" (you know the scene) but the rest of the movie I'm drawing a blank on.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

Eye of the Tiger has a LOT of Walking Tall qualities for sure. I can see your opinion on Tequila Sunrise as well. Its a bit heavy on the word salad. Moving is a fun silly comedy, far from peak Pryor but a good time with solid supporting characters.

[@joeyclemenza7339]

Richard Pryor absolutely hated that movie… and hated working on it. It’s an ok flick, but is ridiculously inferior to his larger body of work. I would’ve picked “see no evil, hear no evil.” The last flick he did with Gene Wilder.

[@MoviesNeverSayDie]

It's certainly not peak Pryor, but his work with Wilder is legendary so I would assume I'd get a lot of push back for putting any of the films they did together on a 'forgotten' list.

[@angel196989]

Manhunter was one of my favorite movies from the 80's. I wish I could find it on a streaming service. Out of Bounds with Anthony Michael Hall is one I think has been forgotten by everyone. It's not the greatest movie ever made but it was entertaining and I liked it
