[Flop]

I'm sure most people can agree that action movies made in the 80's are generally better than action movies made in other decades. Back then we had guys like Arnold, Sly and Chuck Norris (I know they're still around, but they don't seem to be making good movies anymore) beating up the bad guys. Look at what we have now: Vin Diesel.

I for one have been wondering for a number of years why it is that 80's action movies are just better, and recently I stumbled on this website, and guess what; these guys have found the answer. It basically amounts to Reagan in the white house, and a bunch of homoerotic undertones permeating those movies.

I know that most action movies aren't considered good, but let's be honest. Who among doesn't enjoy watching such movies as Commando, Bloodsport and Escape From New York, just to mention a few? (I realise some people doesn't enjoy them, but hopefully you're vastly outnumbered.

Anyway, the purpose of this thread is to discuss our favourite 80's action movies, and to show our support and undying love for these movies, the like of which will never come again.

I've already mentioned three of my favourites, but basically I like anything with Arnold (from the 80's mind you. I did not enjoy watching him get pregnant). The Rambo movies are also great fun, and I have to say that I had a lot of fun watching the American Ninja movies (they're as bad as they come ).
