I am having a few friends over for a kind of adult Pyjama party (girls only!! :-) We are going to do nails and crazy hair styles.
I am planning on making it a kind of 80's theme. Can anyone suggest any great movies from the 80's that they loved, even if they seem a bit cheesy now. :-) eg: Working Girl, Ferris Beuller, Flashdance. Honestly the cheesier the better!!! lol
do a John Cusack fest! Oh, yeah, baby! "Say Anything", "16 Candles", & some of his newer ones to boot.
Other options:
"An Officer & a Gentleman"
"Pretty in Pink"
"Top Gun"
"Airplane", "Police Academy"
Dirty Dancing
Sixteen Candles
Loverboy
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
Another fun idea is to play music from the 80's in a music game system, guitar hero, etc. Or have an 80's trivia game to see who really knows her stuff, then one can be crowned 80's Queen for the night with a crown & sash, like prom, lol! Have Fun!!
Not 80s but it's about the 80s: The Wedding Singer
Risky business
American Graffiti
Airplane
Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
If you can get some old 80's Saturday night Live vids, those would be pretty funny too.
Have fun!
Sounds like fun!
What about Sixteen Candles or The Breakfast Club?
Some Kind of Wonderful. Best movie ever : )
Have fun!
Girl Just Wanna Have Fun is one of my fave 80s movies. Depending on how old you all are, maybe try to find movies that feature characters and storylines with people who are the age you all were back when the movie was made.
My all time favorite 80s movie Dirty Dancing! :)
FUN!! How about Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club, St. Elmo's Fire...
okay, Risky Business, Top Gun, Ghost, An Officer and A Gentleman, Saint Elmos Fire, Pretty Woman, Purple Rain, Princess Bride, Money pit, Chances Are, Earth Girls are Easy, Doc Hollywood, Blind Date, She's having a Baby and last but not least Desperatley Seeking Susan. These are all great movies. Thanks for making me remember so many great movies. Have a great time.
I love musicals like Grease, Grease 2, Pirates of Penzance, and Annie!Wow, now I know what I am doing this weekend! Watching some of these old movies sounds like a great time. Thanks for posting the question.
Some of my favorites:
Sixteen Candles
The Breakfast Club
Bachelor Party
St. Elmo's Fire
Pretty in Pink
Stand By Me
Say Anything
Valley Girl
Any Molly Ringwald movie or Girls Just Want to have Fun (Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt). I also liked the movie Shag where four girls go to Charleston for the weekend. It has AnnaBeth Gish and Phoebe Cates, I think.

Wow, sounds like fun, wish I had fun friends like this...anyway, it's not an 80s movie but it is supercute and about the 80s, so I think you girls would like it: 13 going on 30 with Jennifer Garner. Also, The Goonies, Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Weird Science, and (yes I am weird) The Lost Boys. Have fun!

I just have to comment... WOW I feel OLD! I am a child of the 80's and I do stop and watch ALL of these movies! That sounds like SOOOO much fun. AW, too bad you're in Miami - or I'd ask if I could come!!!!! Dont forget Valley Girl! and buy some Agua Net!!!
Have FUN!!!!
Oh definitely Grease and Dirty Dancing.....but what about "Mystic Pizza" - I think that's the name - very early Julia Roberts! Have fun!
