As the 80s was the ultimate era for movie making, churning out some of the favourite classic movies of all time, it seems only right to suggest but a few to get you going on your quest for the best 80s movies. For those who enjoy a good comedy, look no further than the Naked Gun series, Airplane!, Blazin' Saddles, See No Evil Hear No Evil, Coming to America and Trading Places. The slapstick and downright stupid comedy style makes them some of the most entertaining and original of their time.
If action adventure is what you are after, look no further than Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark. Think James Bond style action and villains only with added 'adventure' and you have one of the best action adventure movies of all time. Alternatively, if you prefer your adventure with more of a sci-fi kick to it, Back to the Future is the perfect remedy. It's got time travel, adorable characters, and plenty of quotable cheesy humour.
For those a bit more partial to some rocking out, with crazy hair and even crazier outfits, Kiss are perfect. Check out their 80s album release 'Lick It Up' for glam metal galore. Guns 'n' Roses may also float your rocking boat, whose 'Appetite for Destruction' album will introduce you to all their earliest and most renowned tracks. If you enjoy what you hear, also check out Alice Cooper and Motley Crue for more ego fuelled and brilliant rock talent.
If belting out power ballads is your thing, put Bonnie Tyler's 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' at the top of your list. One of the best power ballads of all time, from one of the best singers of all time, it is not to be missed. Also check out Queen, in particular 'Who Wants To Live Forever' and 'Bohemian Rapsidy', as well as T'Pau's classic hit 'China In Your Hand'.
If electronic pop is more up your street, look no further than Human League's 'Don't You Want Me Baby' and Gary Numan's 'Cars'. Both excellent examples of the genre and you can still hear the Human League perform today. Also popular hits of the genre are Paul Hardcastle's 'Nineteen' and Visage's 'Fade To Grey'.
