This was my favourite movie as a kid, and I've recent rewatched it. It brought back so many Nostalgic memories, and it definitely holds up.
What's a movie you love that brings back some nostalgia? |

Fantastic choice!
Loved Big Trouble in Little China, and like you watched it again recently.
Same sort of era stuff that are enjoyable are Stir Crazy, Commando and the original Predator. Would give Beverly Hills Cop an honorable mention too, even though I’m not an Eddie Murphy fan. |

I love that film, it blew my mind when I was younger
My ultimate childhood film was Top Gun, absolutely loved it and have had a fascination with military aircraft ever since. Cant wait for the next one to come out |

Yep, same here. Became Top Gun obsessed. Nearly jizzed in my pants when USS JFK came to Ireland, went to all the static air shows and then they did a flyover of a few towns, it was epic. |

No unfortunately not. My mate did, he got a ticket. He had zero interest in it but knew I was obsessed and still wouldn't give me the ticket......bastards. |

Managed to get on which was great but even better was a helicopter flight from Sandymount over it
As near as the no fly zone allowed for..that really showed the scale of it

Lol, I got on as well, it some impressive piece of engineering. I couldn’t get over the size of the fighter jets alone not to mention the ship. I was expecting them to be relatively small so to be so nimble and fast. |

The James Bond movies do it for me as I still remember as a very young child going with my mum and dad to see one in a cinema ....nearly 50 years later I now bring my parents to each one as they come out in the cinema |

amazing film at the time my daughter probably was 7 and would watch Harry Potter and not batter a eyelid that to me was more scary. |

The original Star Wars for a number of reasons. I was 11 when it first came out.
It was so completely different to anything I'd ever seen before at the cinema.
I also watched it in 4D generations before such a thing was ever talked about.
The cinema was so old and tatty(a proper fleapit) that part of it was roped off for health and safety reasons and every time there was a laser blast or explosion on screen a lump of ceiling plaster landed on the seats in front of me. A truly immersive experience  |

"Who remembers Gleaming The Cube, a skateboarding movie with Christian Slater. We all went out and bought skateboards afterwards.
I remember it and I was too old for a skateboard even then "
Never too old, get yourself some pads, helmet and board and off you go. And get some wheels for the zimmer frame |

I'll stick to the hiking, kayaking ,cycling and waterskiing young man. That skateboarding sounds too energetic. |

Briefly remember it. However two other Christian slater films that were great was kuffs and pump up the volume. Not 80s though. |
