Back to the 80's - Twins - Yakkety Yak

Here we catch Arnie whilst on his way to visit Danny Devito in Twins (1988). Other than perhaps Danny's later rendition of 'Tonight is your night bro' one of the finest musical numbers of the film. Oh and unfortunately I couldn't discover what airline he had the fortune of flying!

Back to the 80's - He-Man and the Masters of the Universe - Opening Theme

This one explains itself, we simply can't have SheRa without her twin brother He-Man aka Adam Prince of Eternia and defender of the Secrets of Castle Greyskull... Here is the He-Man opening theme.



'I have the power!!'

Back to the 80's - Thundercats - Intro

The Thundercats intro never fails to pick me up, kind of like the visual caffeine which is sometimes needed at the end of the day. One of my favourites growing up, and no, that wasn't just due to Cheetara.




Enjoy!!

Back to the 80's - A-Team - Intro

If you have a problem, if no-one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The A-Team.

First airing in 1983 and running for 98 episodes until 1987, the A-Team was possibly one of the best things on TV, and with rumours of a comeback in 2010 who knows what we'll be in store for.

Back To The 80's - Tron - Lightbike battle

I still dream that one day I'll own one of these bad boys... who knows I might get lucky. Here is the famous Lightbike battle from the 1982 Tron, starring Jeff Bridges.

Back to the 80's - Flight of the navigator - David's First Flight

This is the when we see David's escape from the NASA compound in Max, in the 1986 Flight of the Navigator.



"Compliance"

Back to the 80's - Moonwalker - Smooth Criminal

Smooth Criminal from the 1988 movie Moonwalker has to be another one of my all time favourites. An unbelievably cool scene for all of those who didn't think transforming into a car, spaceship, and robot wasn't enough.

Back to the 80's - Rocky III - Training video

Nothing to me says 'inspirational' better than two grown men running down a beach in the outfits for the Eric Prydz - Call on me video. This is Rocky III (1982), and is in my mind the best of the Rocky training montages, played out before Balboa's final fight with Clubber 'Mr. T' Lang.



'I pity the fool!!'

Back to the 80's - Karate Kid - Final Scene

Here is the final scene from Karate Kid (1984), every kids favourite back in the early eighties, I know it makes me wish that I'd followed in Daniel Larusso's shoes.



Wax on... Wax off!

Back to the 80's - She-Ra: Princess of Power - Opening theme

Not only the Princess of Power, but He-Man's hot twin sister. Here is the theme from the 1985 cartoon.

Back to the 80's - Footloose - Tractor Chicken

Continuing my much loved elements of the 80's has to be 'Tractor Chicken' from Footloose (1984). Who could not love the idea of two tractors playing chicken to the music of Bonnie Tyler (Holding out for a Hero)? No-body that's who! I just have to point out to anyone watching this for the first time, the dread on Kevin Bacon's face despite the fact the tractors are only traveling at a snail's pace and are about a mile apart.



... Oh and apologies for the subtitles (YouTube clips are a law unto themselves)

Back to the 80's - Big - The Giant Piano

Another classic clip from the 80's, still repeated to this day at toy store FAO Schwartz, from the 1988, Big starring Tom Hanks.



Enjoy!!

Back to the 80's - Back to the Future - Johnny B. Goode

This clip is an absolute classic, found while sorting though old social network profiles. As the title suggests it's from the 1985 smash, Back to the Future starring Michael J. Fox, and Christopher Lloyd, and is one of my all time favourites. Enjoy!!
