I see you removed City Slickers

 

[WhiteHispanicFrog]

I see you removed City Slickers

And UHF

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

I see you removed City Slickers

Yeah, looking up Billy Crystal movies and noticed that one was from 91. Seems older.

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

And UHF

Never had UHF on the list.

I was the opposite. I couldn’t believe it was in the 80s when you had it listed like that.

 

[Purp]

I was the opposite. I couldn’t believe it was in the 80s when you had it listed like that.

Same here, but only b/c I remembered the movie well and, had it really been an 80s movie, I'd have been too young to remember it that well. Still surprised by 91, though. I'd have guessed 93 probably.

 

[WhiteHispanicFrog]

Never had UHF on the list.

I'm aware, it should be.

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

I'm aware, it should be.

Supplies!

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

I was the opposite. I couldn’t believe it was in the 80s when you had it listed like that.

I guess all those 80’s SNL alum movies seem like they’re in the 80s to me. Plus, 1988-91 is pretty much a blur. I almost listed Dances with Wolves, too. Could’ve sworn it was late 80s, but then I remembered that I saw that in the theater with a girl I didn’t know until ‘90.

Smokey and the Bandit.

Smokey and the Bandit.

very good movie that lead to two of the worst sequels ever made.

damn near made caddy shack 2 passable.

Agree. But fwiw, I’d rather watch all three of those sequels than Cabaret, Shampoo and Bananas.

i actually wouldn't watch anything other than cabaret again from that group now that i have a better feeling of the history of the era at that time.

never was a huge woody allen or warren beatty fan

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

Smokey and the Bandit.

Also, The Outlaw Josey Wales

 

[Eight]

Also, The Outlaw Josey Wales

that is a movie i really couldn't have placed timewise, because i knew most of the spaghetti western's featuring eastwood came out in the 60's and i only have seen they and josey wales via television.

another movie i lose track of time as i never saw it in the theater is jeremiah johnson with robert redford. i couldn't tell you if that is late 60's or early 70's
