Something about the 80s part 1

What is it about the 80s hey. In the 90s it was looked at being a cheesy decade but now it seems cool and cheesy together. There are so many defining movies that came out durning this decade. As well as producing shoulder pads the and being the era of Dynasty and Dallas but leg warmers still seem to be cool don't they. So have decided to do some 80s related blogs hope you like reading them :)!!

The 80s was responsbile for buidling the careers of many the actors below yes many of them are still going strong but this decade certainly helped them didn't it.


Harrison Ford was an actor in the 80s who starred in 2 Star War movies, The Indian Jones trilogy and one of the biggest scfi movies ever Blade Runner. It was certainly a decade were he contributed to some of the biggest movies in history. For me the 80s was definelty his era.













Micheal J Fox was one of the biggest stars of the 80s and who can't  think of this decade without thinking about him playing Marty Mcfly in the Back to Future trilogy I can't and creating the cheesy fun of Teen wolf. 















Bruce Willis yes he is still making many movies but like Harrison Ford the 80s was a decade that made his hollywood career. As well as starring in the TV series Moonlighting. He become a movie star with Die Hard and this helped establish him as a TV actor to Film star.






Michelle Pfeiffer was one of the biggest actresses of the 80s with Married to the Mob, The Fabulous Baker boys, Scarface, Dangerous Liasons etc. Michelle continues acting and is still in some films to this day but there is something about this time period which made her seem flawless.












Signourney Weaver was in some great films in the 80s. She defined the untimate female herorine as Riply in the Alien and was also the female lead in Ghostbusters and playing difficult boss to Melanie Griffth in working girl.














Kim Basinger was a big sex symbol in eighties with movies like 9 1/2 weeks, Blind date, My stepmother is and Alien and Batman this gave her a good platform to continue making many more movies in the 90s and noughties.









I hope you enjoyed reading a slice of some the actors I think helped make this decade so great. There are many others but hope this captures some the essence of this era. Keep a lookout for two more 80s related blogs coming soon :)!!
