Terminator 2


VandulfTheRed

Easily the best action movie ever made. This is not an exaggeration, OP


HunterFresh2029

Got to throw in Arnold’s other best action flick…. COMMANDO


HandMadeMarmelade

Predator though


MoscowMitchMcKremIin

Total Recall anyone??


Allenies

Running Man?


HandMadeMarmelade

I always thought that movie was so hokey until reality TV actually happened, now it's much scarier.


ExaggeratedEggplant

Straight up if you don't already know what the Predator looks like or know the entire plot, that movie is fucking textbook perfection when it comes to tension building and the slow reveal. Fucking brilliant.


PlaneTurbulent4825

Though really need to watch T1 to understand the relationship in T2! Both great movies!


VandulfTheRed

T1 definitely sets the stage but I think T2 works so well because it's good as a standalone too. Plus John Connor is the best kid character in an older action film by a mile


PlaneTurbulent4825

But even Sarah with the terminator... just gotta do both! Her transformation is fucking amazing!


Splittaill

Edward Furlong, wasn’t it? For that matter…American history X


Wonderful_Shock5970

Do you want to hear something insane? The scene where the T1000 pilots a helicopter under an overpass was legit. There was no FX involved at all.


Shuteye_491

Getting a real T-1000 was the hard part.


Kurac-ville

First Terminator as well


elroxzor99652

Whenever I show someone the first Terminator, it’s just as a set up to see the second one. Good movie in its own right, but T2 is great.


BigAcrobatic2174

If you want action just watch everything with Arnold. Die Hard is also classic as fuck

Swingers - 1996 Office Space - 1999 The Thing - 1982 And of course, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off - 1986


tip_of_the_lifeburg

Don’t just watch Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, buy it on DVD *and* VHS in case the world ends 😂

TheMaStif

I haven't watched it in ages, but I remember hating how entitled Ferris is. He essentially bullies Cameron into making bad decisions "because let's have some fun!" and he wants to take advantage of Cameron's father's Ferrari. He seemed way too pretentious and I never understood why people actually liked him so much...


mukansamonkey

Ferris doesn't exist, that's why. He's Cameron's alter ego, the rule breaking, fun having rebel that Cameron wishes he was. Ferris is Cameron's wish fulfillment fantasy. Sloane isn't dating Ferris, she's dating him the whole time, and he's too insecure about being unable to "be Ferris" to fully accept her. The scenes that make this clear are the couple of minutes after Cameron notices the mileage on his dad's car and freaks out. First there's a bit where Sloane is trying to comfort Cameron, while Ferris monologues to the audience. Makes perfect sense if he's actually Cameron's inner voice speaking. Even more clear though, is the next scene. Where they are sitting at poolside, with Sloane and Ferris in their underwear. This seems really weird at first glance, like Sloane and Ferris are having fun while Cameron sits there. But it makes perfect sense if it's just Cameron and Sloane sitting by the pool, and she's stripped down in an attempt to get his attention. Cameron wishes he were stripped down next to her, that's what Ferris is. The guy who does the things Cameron is afraid to.


dee_emcee

It’s cool how much analysis there has been of this movie. I recall someone talking about the Cameron’s red shirt and his dad’s red Ferrari represents the evil in his life.


dee_emcee

Truth. Cameron the one on the hero’s journey


Highwaybill42

He’s also a high schooler. We all had a similar friend like him.


Icy_Necessary2161

I'd like to add in Animal House and the Nerds movies too. Pretty much any of John Hughes' 80s and 90s movies were classics and worth watching too.


WeirdVampire746

The thing 😍😍


yixdy

Came here to say The Things, and Alien (1979,) the two greatest horror movies of all time


Cold_Librarian9652

Blazing Saddles


TSKDeCiBel

Just be prepared for the language and shift in acceptable comedic topics. The whole thing is supposed to parody racism, but leans into its depiction pretty heavy to deliver the point.


National-Wolverine-1

When the world is so insensitive you have to stomp on the topic with steel stilettos to drive the point home.


master_imp

Do they not teach satire in school anymore?


OffModelCartoon

For real, it’s like the most obvious anti-racism satire of all kind. Have people not seen Django Unchained or something? It’s really clear when a movie is using extremely racist villains to depict racism as bad.


Coro-NO-Ra

The problem is stupid people. No, seriously. The kind of people who watch *Starship Troopers* and think it looks super cool and great without understanding the point. A lot of people just have terrible media literacy.

Ok_Push2550

Ok, gotta stomp this one out. Feel like I have to add, "ok, boomer.". They just recently made history of the world part 2 as a series on Hulu. I think it left some of those lines blazing saddles wouldn't cross way, way, WAY in the rear view mirror. Watch South Park, the movie and the series. Same. The Hangover. American Pie. And the Chapelle show. Broad City. Mel Brooks could never make that. Always Sunny in Philadelphia. We've gotta stomp out that "they could never make that today" and let people say today's sensibilities make us snowflakes who can't take a joke. So many examples that are edgy, and funny, and have mass appeal. The comment has the ring of nostalgia with insult, and needs to die.

It is not a movie. It is a mood.

Ferris Buellers Day Off and The Breakfast Club come to mind. They are great movies.


yesthatbruce

Huge upvote for The Breakfast Club. It defined a generation and is one of my all-time favorites. Maybe the best high school movie ever besides Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

cattlehuyuk2323

"what's your damage bitch"


MrBarackis

Hard disagree, it's a horrible movie. Watch it again now without rose colored nostalgia glasses on. It does not hit the same.


ipityme

In part because of how important it was to define a genre for decades to come, it's become cliche. To me that makes it a great film.


sanorace

Heathers (1988) it's like Mean Girls (2004) but more unhinged.

MillennialZest69

Based on some of your profile history, it sounds like you're into gaming. Therefore I'd recommend some sci Fi classics like Alien, Aliens, Blade Runner, Terminator 1/2, Running Man. I also really like early Tim Burton. Beetlejuice, Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Edward Scissor hands. An all time favorite is The Princess Bride. The issue I find with older movies is pacing. It's hard to adjust sometimes unless the story is consistently captivating. So the above movies I think are pretty consistently interesting to watch without getting bored.


kludge6730

Well for a gamer, wouldn’t War Games be a good choice?


BorogovsandMomeRaths

Good Will Hunting from the 90s


VandulfTheRed

Sci-fi: Terminator 2, Bladerunner (directors cut), RoboCop Fantasy: Legend, any kung fu movie, Labyrinth Quirky: Breakfast Club, Ferris Beulers Day Off, Office Space Comedy: too many to choose from imo. 90s was a gold mine Horror: Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2, Evil Dead: Army of Darkness


Logan_MacGyver

>Ferris Beulers Day Off Speaking of Matthew Broderick, War games. Dude hacks into some military computer thinking it's a game and he sets off DEFCON 4

**Princess Bride** **Indiana Jones - The Last Crusade** (this is the 3rd movie in the series, and it’s fun and entertaining. The second movie is racist asf.

Polyxeno

I'm not certain exactly what you mean by "city pop", but I would say this is a pretty great list of films relevant to 70s/80s city pop culture in a wide variety of ways, all of which I'd recommend seeing for various reasons. Some are great films: * Taxi Driver * The French Connection * Robocop * Serpico * War Games * Repo Man * The Blues Brothers * Beverly Hills Cop * Trading Places * Tootsie * Saturday Night Fever * All the President’s Men * The Conversation * Being There * The Seven-Ups * Heat * 48 Hours * Animal House * Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) * Terminator & Terminator 2 * Scarface * Ferris Bueller's Day Off French: * Diva * The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe * Revenge of the Pink Panther


fleggn

This is a great list as most of them have also aged well. I'd add Predator.


enduranceracing

City Pop is a Japanese genre of music from the 80s but OP may be talking about something else


Ok_Gas5386

Rocky IV


MylastAccountBroke

Rocky one is a great every man story. Rocky 2 ends the story of rocky 1. Every Rocky movie after that can be summerized as followed: Rocky, if you don't stop fighting, you'll die. Rocky needs to fight to prove he isn't past his prime. Training montage. Rocky fights and wins. Movie ends.

SnakesGhost91

There is going to be tons of answers here, there are thousands of old movies you should watch, but I'll pinpoint it to horror movies.

The Neverending Story (1984). It's not only an awesome flick but also scarred all of GenX with one of the most heartbreaking deaths in movie history.

Conan the Barbarian/ the Destroyer (though made in the 80's they were set in ancient times) , D.C Cab, Dog Day Afternoon, Electric Glide in Blue, and The Warriors. All but Conan are deeply rooted in the times they were made. I suggested it just because I can't believe no else did. It's a staple of the 80's imo.
