What's the best action movie of the 80's?

I lied.

So ridiculously tough, although I just have to go for Die Hard, with Predator in a VERY close second.

Commando is okay, but i wouldn't say it's the best one out of the choices.

(Heavy Austrian Accent) OHH LEETL GIRL, ISN'T AHHR LIFE SO WONDERRFUHL! WOODN'T IT BE SO AWHFUL IF ANYTHEENG CHEYNGED!

(Girl kidnapped by overly camp man in overly YMCA gear)

KEELL AHLLL!

(Fighting)

LEHT OFF SOME STEAHM, BENNETT!

More love for Predator.

Die Hard purely for the speech in the vents, cracks me up every time.

Predator and then Commando closely following.

You know what my favourite part of Commando is? When he drops sully off the cliff.

Now, in a normal action movie the protaganist would simply drop him and walk away. What does Matrix do? Peeks over the edge and watches him fall. 8-)

All. The. Way.

Then pushes the car back onto its wheels with such force that all the dints vanish. 8-)

No love for Robocop?

"Bitches Leave" is one of the most awesome quotes ever. I've been trying to track down a t-shirt of it for years.

"Can you fly, Bobby?", is another special one.

Aliens

I met the writer (or one of the writers) or Robocop - I remember he was wittering on about the script, and the themes and meanings and such.

...as if any of that gooseberry fool mattered :lol:

Predator and Aliens in a 1-2 combo, y'all. Digging the sci-fi gooseberry fool of it all, mayne.

"Yippee-ki-yay, mummy strawberry floater."

Out of the poll options:

1. Die Hard
2. Predator
3. The Terminator

I haven't actually seen Commando, Aliens, First Blood or Robocop. I mean I've seen them. But just the once and so long ago that I can't actually remember them.

I've seen them. Just so long ago that I can't remember much about them. :shifty:

You need to rectify that situation.

It's next to Weeds on the list of things I need to watch.

Actually I'm the same with First Blood too. :shifty:
