Was thinking about movies from the 80s and decided to watch VisionQuest. Damn, the sound track on that movie was on point.

As a side note, Madonna was in her prime in that movie. 80's Madonna was the best Madonna.

Full Metal Jacket - Made me sad I missed my father and his friends war. Unfortunately there was no "boom boom longtime" or USO shows with Ann Margret in our South West Asia catastrophes.

Everyone knew a Spicoli growing up. That movie is a time capsule for the 80s. Mall life, music, high school angst, and Phoebe.
