I've seen 23 of them.

Let's Talk About Ceps
Someone was saying on here a while ago that the bar scene in T2 was filmed across the street and at the same time from the spot where the cops beat the hell out of Rodney King, and that the guy who filmed the beating also caught a little of scene being shot for the film in the background.

Apparently it was two separate instances of the same guy filming,
One of the first things George Holliday did when he bought his then cutting-edge Sony Handycam 8-millimeter video camera in early 1991 was to go into a bar in front of his house in north Los Angeles. It was there that he managed to capture some moments from the shooting of the celebrated scene from Terminator 2 when Arnold Schwarzenegger steals a biker’s clothing and rides off on his Harley Davidson.
On March 3 of that year, using the same tape and in the same place, he recorded the savage beating by several police officers of an unarmed black man called Rodney King.

woops
is not like other people
If you've never seen Back to the Future you've got a treat in store, watch the whole trilogy, the way they work together is great
I should watch or rewatch Die Hard myself I'm sure it's up there with Bruce W in his great period
Heathers is probably best watched when you're a teenager yourself and crave revenge and rebellion (edit: and winona ryder) but watch it anyway
80s: Great period for cinema? It's not the 70s auteurs with their desperate loners in saturated dreamscapes but it does have a very complete aesthetic, slick and immoral and wholesome all at the same time.
My recent dips in include Throw Momma from the Train which is almost surreal in its failure and 48 Hours which has the two great lead performances which are slick etc all at the same etc Unbelievably these were both directed by Walter Hill who did The Warriors and The Driver in the 70s.

We could analyse this aesthetic all day but probably this sums it up. We grew up in a toy franchise product placement Cold War propaganda media enironment that, none the less, seems relatively wholesome in retrospect.
