Science Fiction Movies I Enjoyed From the 80’s

This is a re-post of a story I had up on the old version of this site.

So, I wanted to give a quick rundown of movies I enjoyed from the 1980’s, and while this might further the thought of me as a special effects only sci-fi fan, after my other list which only included “recent” movies, I figured going back a bit might be fun.

So without further ado, here are some of my favourites from the 80’s:

• Tron
• Star Wars: Return of the Jedi
• Ghostbusters
• The Last Starfighter
• Terminator
• Back to the Future
• Aliens
• Flight of the Navigator
• Short Circuit
• Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
• Batteries Not Included
• Predator
• RoboCop
• Spaceballs
• Short Circuit 2
• Back to the Future Part 2

I must have watched most of these over a dozen times. As a child, I used to cheer on Johnny 5 from Short Circuit 2 as he chased down the final criminal in the movie.

Feel free to share your 1980’s sci-fi movie memories in the comments.
