Scenes From Movies of the Eighties, Index
What was the most memorable scene from an eighties movie? Was it when the
Blues Brothers make an impossible leap over the drawbridge, or was it when
Bender in the Breakfast Club leads the group through the deserted school
corridors while trying to avoid getting caught? Whatever the reason, whatever
the scene, let me know and I'll share it with everyone else.

McCoy and Cody are sitting at the bar and the bartender is hassling McCoy and telling her that he isn't going to let her drink anymore. They start fighting and then McCoy looks over at Cody and says "Everywhere I go, theres and asshole" and she clocks the bartender right in the face and knocks him out. Then she jumps over the bar and asks Cody "What do you drink" and Cody says "I've always been a tequila man" so she grabs a whole bottle of tequila, hands it to him, jumps back over the bar and says "lets get outta here."
Killer Klowns From Outer Space
A doorbell rings in a teen girl's house she answers it a clown is standing their with a pizza box two other clowns appear out of nowhere a clown pops out of the pizza box and aims a ray gun at her turning into cotton candy
When Bender sits next to Brian during lunch and says " Well, Brian all this is a very nutritional meal. All the food groups are represented. Who did your mom marry? Mr. Rogers?" and Brian says "No, Mr. Johnson."
When Chunk offers Sloth a Baby Ruth and Sloth says "RUUUTH RUUTH BABY RUTH!
When Jake, the jock, tells Anthony Michael Hall that he can drive the popular drunk girl home. Anthony Michael Hall says that he can't drive and doesn't have his license, so Jake tells him to not hit anything. Then Anthony Michael Halls goes "Ahhhhh, don't hit anything." It makes me laugh every single time!
Spinal Tap
And perhaps the best of all, there's the scene where Nigel Tufnel demonstrates the band's amplifiers, all of which are fitted with dials that go up to eleven instead of the usual ten: DIBERGI: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder? TUFNEL: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where? DIBERGI: I don't know. TUFNEL: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do? DIBERGI: Put it up to eleven. TUFNEL: Eleven. Exactly. One louder. DIBERGI: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder? TUFNEL: (Extremely long pause) These go to eleven.
When Cameron is on the phone with Rooney pretending to be Ferris' girlfriends' dad, and Rooney thinks it's Ferris so he says all of these rude things. When Rooney thinks it's actually the girlfriend's dad, he starts apologizing and Cameron shouts, "Pardon my French, but you're an a******!!!"
At the end of the movie, after the kids are released from detention. John and Claire became a couple and Andrew and Allison became a couple and are saying their good byes in the parking lot. At first I didn't really care for the ending (after all the mean things that Bender said about Claire!), but then I realized how powerful it was for these kids from different social groups to come together the way that they did. And then there was "Don't You Forget About Me" playing in the background. Best ending to a movie ever!
One of my favorite scenes is when John Bender is lecturing the rest on how belonging to a school club is rediculous and Brian timidly announces that he's in the physics club. When Bender asks him what it is that they do in the physics club, Brian replies "We study physics...and properties of physics."
Where Inigo is getting ready to fight the six-fingered man, and they're all in fighting stances, in a staredown- and the six-fingered man turns around and runs away!
When Blaine's friend is badmouthing Andy, and Duckie turns around, charges at him, and proceeds to tackle him and beat him up. I wish I had my own Duckie :(
The parade scene, possbily the most unforgettable scene in any movie ever. Ferris gets up on the float in the middle of a parade and lip-syncs Danke Shoen and Twist and Shout. His dad up in his office hears the music and starts dancing. At the end of Twist and Shout everyone cheers and balloons go up.
When Charlie is chasing Maverick down the street... the song "Take My Breath Away" by Berlin is faintly heard in the background...the part when she admits she fell for him.....
At the very end of the movie, Mr. Keating comes in to get the last of his posessions, but as he's leaving Todd Anderson gets up on his desk and says "Captian, my captain." The rest of the Dead Poets Society, and everyone who supported Keating (including Hopkins) gets up on their desk. It then shows all of them standing defiantly, and it's a very powerful image of anticonfromity and honour.
One of the best parts of that movie is when Spicoli (Sean Penn) is in his room and his little brother comes barging in, then Spicoli kicks him out and tells him to knock, when he does, he answers with "Entreey" I laugh everytime.
My favorite part is where Takashi looks at Booger and says "Excuse please but why do they call you Booger?" And while picking his nose, Booger says "I don't know."
The scene where Vern, Gordy, Chris and Teddy take a short cut through the forest and fall in the little pond. They're horsing around until they realize there's leeches in the water and scramble out, screaming and ripping off their clothes in a panic. Gordy looks down his pants, pulls out a leech and FAINTS...haha
At the restraunt, Chet orders the old 96er, which is a 96 ounce steak. The chef brings out, all cooked, Chet stares at it then looks at the cook who says "Bon Appetit!" Chet takes time eating it then halfway through, everybody in the restraunt watches him try to finish eating it. He went slower and slower when he got to the final piece and went he got to the last piece, he was stuffed and was trying to get the last piece in his mouth while his arms were shaking, puts it in his mouth and everybody cheered and applaused him.
The Griswalds are the Stonehenge visiting and ready to leave, Clark backs the car up and hits one of the stone pilar's that causes it fall over starting a domino effect and other stones fall too.
