Boardsies Great Movie Star of the 80s - Live Thread

Irish Aris

Sigourney Weaver - one of my nominations
Al Pacino - tough one but Pacino had a couple of great roles in the 80s
Tom Hanks - he was a bit hit and miss in the earlier 80s, but sure it's Tom Hanks
Mel Gibson - Mad Max among other things

Deja Boo

Sorry I missed this thread, if it isn't too late ...

Sigourney Weaver, altho her eyes freak me out :eek:
Al Pacino, cos I dont think Jeff Bridges can act :rolleyes:
Tom Hanks, because BIG!
Mel Gibson, altho I've not seen him in much.

Fred Savage - The Princess Bride, Vice Versa, cool kid
Arnold Schwarzenegger - iconic
Leslie Nielsen - Airplane > Naked Gun, but the former is the 70s so doesn't count. But Naked Gun is still great and I've never seen a JCVD movie in my life
Michael J. Fox - Marty, Teen Wolf, class.

Christopher Lloyd
Arnie
Michael J. Fox

Need to think about the third match for a bit

Christopher Lloyd - not who I’d have as an outright winner but I associate Fred with The Wonder Years so the doc wins by default.
Arnold Schwarzenegger - best decade for action movie heroes and Arnie was at the top of the league.
Leslie Nielsen - feel bad knocking Van damme out but how could you not like Leslie?
Michael J. Fox - The time hopping teen wolf please.

Necro

Jean Claude Van Damme.

Nielsen will probably win this and maybe deservedly but JCVD is undeniably 80s.

Meg Ryan - some good films: When Harry Met Sally; Innerspace
Emilio Estevez - Ermy really only had FMJ, so it has to be Estevez
Rob Lowe - Brat Pack and can't think of any memorable films RD was in in the 80s
Gary Busey - because he be cray cray.
