Special Features #–3 - The top-grossing movies of the 1980s, year by year
Cam kicks things off with the intro before we jump into what we’ve been watching lately. Coby runs through a stacked list including Dream a Little Dream, Die Hard, Romeo & Juliet, Fury, The Usual Suspects, Gleaming the Cube, Rain Man, Robocop, The Ninth Gate, and Warfare. Cam brings in his own mix with Chernobyl and The Terror, sparking plenty of side tangents about VHS gems and forgotten classics.
We also look ahead at upcoming releases on our radar, with Coby eyeing the wild casting of Paul Rudd and Jack Black in Anaconda and Cam weighing in with his own picks.
In our additional segment, we fire up the time machine and break down the top-grossing movies of the 1980s, year by year. From The Empire Strikes Back and Raiders of the Lost Ark to Back to the Future, Top Gun, and Batman, it’s a tour through the box office hits that defined the decade.
