The people have spoken. I asked you what your favorite movies from the 80's were. You gave me big lists, and I had a hard time putting it all together. This is going to be a very long list, so I'm going to keep it short and just list the movies without really talking about them or anything. Sorry if that sounds amateurish, but that's how I'm gonna do it. Also, just so you guys won't complain like little kids, I'm going to include pictures. Well, without further ado, here is the list you helped me put together. These are...

Well, there you have it. That is the official list of Top 100 80's movies that you guys all helped me put together. Some of you might wonder about a movie or two that got left off, but don't worry, I'm sure that one is listed in the honorable mentions. I would have listed the honorable mentions (movies that were nominated but didn't make the list), but that would just make the article too long, boring and repetitive (not that it's long enough already). I know that a lot of you are getting sick of all these list articles (namely velcrohead), and I know it may not look like it's very constructive, but I was elected to do this, and I did it. For those of you who enjoy these list articles, I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope it turned out good.

Oh, and just so you'd know, these are not my Top 100. I didn't choose all these and put them in my deceding order, and I also didn't just randomly pick all these movies. These are listed in order based on the nominated 80's movies I got from some of you fellow Retrojunkies (which I thank, of course, for your participation as well as your generosity and support), and they are listed by popularity and number of votes.

Alright, I'm gonna take a break for a while, but I assure you that my next couple of articles are going to be worth reading!
