No Segal films??? I’m taking you all to the bank, the blood bank.
The Running Man is up there with Arnie’s finest of the decade. The American Ninja series is also classic 80’s action especially if you like shit acting and cheesy plots.
Would also place Highlander on the list, but not sure if it’s really an action or a fantasy film.
Not the best 80’s action film but i reckon the most ‘80’s’ 80’s action film for me is Buckaroo Banzai, dimesion jumping rocket cars, aliens, shootouts, synth soundtrack, martial arts and rock and roll, with Peter Weller playing the lead and John Lithgow at his villainous best
I saw WarGames tons of times. Hugely influential film for yours truly - put me in the mood to ask for a computer at a young age, which ended up being a career.
I only heard of it a few months ago, very watchable I’d say, doesn’t take itself too seriously and I think it would never even have got past the draft script stage in any other decade
