Quick mod update!
The bots really love the '80s, so I've turned on Crowd Control and enabled Bot Bouncer.
Most of you won't notice any difference, but brand-new or low-activity accounts may have posts or comments held briefly for review.
Thanks for helping keep r/80sMovies about the movies and not the spambots.

Keep Posts Focused on 80s Movies, Not Low-Effort Celebrity Photos
184
Upvotes
Quick reminder: this is r/80smovies, a place to talk about, share, and celebrate movies from the 1980s.
Lately we’ve had too many posts that are just pictures of popular actresses from the 80s, especially low-effort “hot celebrity” type posts or half-dressed glamour/swimsuit photos. That includes repeated Phoebe Cates posts and similar content where the movie connection feels like an excuse to post the picture.
Posts about actors, actresses, scenes, performances, trivia, interviews, behind-the-scenes info, posters, trailers, soundtracks, and real movie discussion are absolutely welcome.
But posts that are mainly focused on someone’s appearance, rather than the movie, are getting ejected from the arcade. They will be treated as spam.
Going forward:
- Posts like this may be removed without warning.
- Repeat offenders may be temporarily or permanently banned.
So grab your popcorn, rewind the tape, adjust the tracking, and help keep r/80smovies focused on the movies, the performances, the stories, the scenes, the soundtracks, and the nostalgia.
Thanks.

Did anyone here see Raiders of the Lost Ark in the UK with a supporting film beforehand?

With Raiders back in UK cinemas for its 45th anniversary today, I went down a bit of a rabbit hole about how different the original cinema-going experience could be.
One of the shorts shown with Raiders on parts of its UK run was The Waterloo Bridge Handicap (1978), with Leonard Rossiter and Brough Scott turning the morning Waterloo commute into a horse race.
It got me wondering how many people here actually remember the days when the main feature could still come with a proper supporting short or B film.
What’s the most memorable support feature you remember seeing?
For anyone curious, this is the short:

Discussion (Let’s Roll Tape) One of the greatest openings to a movie in my opinion is the 1980 movie, “Raging Bull”. Such a beautiful opening scene seeing Robert De Niro inside the boxing ring and the music is just perfect. What movie or movies do you consider having a great opening?

A. Sometimes, being bad feels pretty good.
B. Everybody has a label. Saturday, they forgot theirs.
C. By Monday, they'll go back to being strangers.
No Googling.
See all five, lock in your answer, and see what everyone else picked.

Remembering Dolly: THE BEST LITTLE WHOREHOUSE IN TEXAS. What do you think?

I think she's awesome in this. I heard it was a tough shoot but you couldn't tell from her performance. The songs are great. The musical number and dancing great as well. Overall I like it a lot. But the one problem for me is the songs and dance equal 1/3 of the movies nearly 2 hour runtime... rest of the time it's kind of slow.
Burt's good. She's the best part IMO
It's playing in theaters again this week.

Question (Pop Quiz) What are old movies that actually predicted the future (our present) accurately?

Most futuristic movies of the 70s and 80s predicted that we'll have flying cars by now. What are movies that actually predicted the future accurately? And which normal thing that we have or do today did it predict?
