Yeah, I haven't even checked for availability, well except for Joel, ha I need to log into my library asap.

I just put on hold better off dead, crossroads,lucas, three o'clock high, cant buy me love, heaven help us, once bitten, stand by me, teen wolf, and grease 2.

fun fact: grease 2 had the most people waiting for it, it must be a hot film

although they have me on a 37 dollar fine for a satantango replacement even though when I received the film it was already broken lol

Ok in regards to Grease 2..I never said the actors have to be teenages but portray teens. If it was based on the actors ages, all would be disqualified.

Jennifer Grey was 27 years old when she played Francis "Baby" Houseman in Dirty Dancing.

I agree with you, that's why they're called actors Dirty Dancing would have been another good film. We'll have to do a part 2!

BTW I've found all the movies except Ms. M's optional to watch movie
Yesterday (1985) If anyone has a link PM me.

One of my favorite 80s teen scene

Fun Fact:

David Foster and John Parr wrote this song specifically for the movie St. Elmo's Fire, but the song itself is about a Canadian athlete named Rick Hansen, who was paralyzed from the waist down after a car crash when he was 15. On March 21, 1985 Hansen began his "Man In Motion" tour, traveling about 70 miles a day to raise money for spinal cord research. At first, Hansen had trouble getting media attention and donations, but when this song was released with the movie in June, it became his anthem, and as the song rose up the charts, interest in Hansen's journey grew. By the time the "Man In Motion" tour was completed on May 22, 1987, Hansen had put over 40,000 Kilometers (24,856 miles) on his wheelchair in 34 countries on four continents, raising $26 million. He became a national hero in Canada, where he is closely associated with this song.

For anyone who needs to find Better Off Dead, here ya go!

The Li rary, i forgot thanks @Velvet.

Thanks @Citizen Rules

@Siddon i am in the Usa

That was my thinking with Lucas. My favourite 80s teen film is Some Kind of Wonderful (anyone else a fan of this?), or I could have picked any other John Hughes film, or Heathers or so many others that are well known. But I think Lucas is a quite little seen one, and one I feel quite a connection to. Packed full of proper 80s icons as well, Corey Haim, Winona Ryder, Charlie Sheen, Kerri Green, and a great 80s soundtrack.

Happy with the rest of the selections, including my own, Ive only seen 3 (Stand By Me and Say Anything the others, which I dont mind seeing again) and havent even heard of some of the others, so something new. I think I have access to a couple of the others, Ill check my sources tomorrow and let you know if there are any Im struggling to find.

Cricket said he's real busy, so he's not going to do this Hof. That's totally cool as the HoF just started.

So his movie Heaven Help Us (1985) is out.

Sad to see him go

His spirit will live on!

Searching the major streaming sites like Amazon Prime, Hulu and Netflix .. this is what I found

Akira - Hulu (Sub and Dub)

Teen Wolf - Amazon Prime, Hulu

Once Bitten - Hulu, Amazone Prime

There are a few on Amazon that you can pay (rent) to watch.

yeah I had hulu until they screwed me
