Well, that and Point Break


Point Break is not an 80s movie...

How much did Brad Wesley pay his goons?

Roadhouse is a guilty pleasure of mine. It's a terribly written movie with a somewhat decent plot and enough cheesy 80s tropes to keep me watching everytime it's on TV.

It features what is arguably Terry Funk's greatest performance in a dramatic role. That alone makes it a must see for the true cinophile.

Better yet, how much does a bar have to pay to relocate an enforcer/change facilitating bouncer?

Dalton covers his fee structure and terms of employment in the first few minutes. It was something retarded, like $5,000 his first week and $2,000 for each additional week. He also had unilateral hire/fire authority.

But that's the price you have to pay to get a professional cooler with the Kung Fu and dance skills that Dalton brings to the bar.

Airplane

Throw in Animal House as well for most quotable movies of all time.

The only issues are that it was cheated out of multiple Academy Awards.

Exactly I mean how many movies are the bad guys spying in a monster truck and go unseen? Or have boots with blades attached? How many people know karate in Missouri? And finally does anyone know if JC Penney ended up coming to town even though Brad Wesley died?

Thank you TBS for helping shape my childhood!
