1985 The Movie Year of All Movie Years

I was looking on IMDB last week to try and find out what year the movie Explorers came out and I was subsequently blown away with the number of memorable movies that came out in 1985. Granted, they weren’t all blockbusters (or even good) but they were definitely more than a blip on most people’s radar. Just get a load of all of these:

  • Back to the Future
  • The Breakfast Club
  • The Goonies
  • Rocky IV
  • Commando
  • The Color Purple
  • Rambo II
  • Clue
  • A View to a Kill
  • Mad Max – Beyond Thunderdome
  • Legend
  • Wierd Science
  • Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure
  • Cocoon
  • Fletch
  • Out of Africa
  • Ladyhawke
  • The Jewel of the Nile
  • Spies Like Us
  • Real Genius
  • St. Elmo’s Fire
  • Pale Rider
  • Teen Wolf
  • Enemy Mine
  • Brewster’s Millions
  • Fright Night
  • Anne of Green Gables
  • Young Sherlock Holmes
  • The Black Cauldron
  • Explorers
  • King Solomon’s Mines
  • Vision Quest

Wow! How can so many movies like that come out in the same year. Now days we are lucky to get 2 or 3 decent ones in a single year. You can check out for yourself and see that 1986 and 1987 weren’t too shabby either.

By the way, ExtremeTech has a review of Ubuntu Linux – Christian Edition up on their site. It’s the Christian-centric linux distro I mentioned a while back.
