All that did was remind me how old I am and how many movies I want to re-watch.

Please tell us more about ad revenue and how to avoid them taking advantage of us.

I don't want anyone providing any sort of free mindless fun if it means they make a dime off some random business.

Cool because I grew up in the 80s, to easy because I grew up in the 80s. Great movies but would have been more fun with some lesser known movies in there especially ones that pop culture has forgotten or ignored like The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension

49/50

Better Off Dead is a classic.

John Cusack at his comic best.

If the quiz was harder I would still do the same amount of clicking.

Reminds me of when HalifaxDrunk used to post screen caps from movies and we had to guess what they were

I figured I'd do terrible. Got 35/50, and that was because I correctly guessed on a bunch.

Never have been huge into movies, but especially not in the 80s

Same. Born in 89.

You can almost guess most of these without any knowledge of 80's pop culture at all. Just based on common sense.

It is one of those movies that was so typically 80s that it was spoofed on quite a bit. Every once in a while I watch a newer movie and there will be an inside joke or homage to this movie.

Better Off Dead is one of my favourite movies. I'm kinda surprised how many don't know it, but I guess it has more of a cult following.
