But McDonald's was good in the 80's, that's the key difference. The 80's was the decade of the blockbuster. Hollywood produced some of the most entertaining films ever made, and it was before everything went completely stupid. If you want an overrated movie decade, it's the 70's. The self serious, baby boomer-adled New Hollywood, whose films were usually a lot less interesting than they pretended to be.

idc if it's bait it's an excuse to post a random year in the 80s

if you throw away the top 20 you still have spaceballs, running man, princess bride, planes trains and automobiles, lost boys, little shop of horrors, hoosiers, raising arizona, wall street, angel heart, hellraiser, heartbreak ridge, broadcast news, empire of the sun, evil dead 2, good morning vietnam, man on fire

Back to the Future is the only big blockbuster franchise that hasn't been ruined by unneeded content or had its films "remastered" in a way that takes away from the original version and its intent.

Sorry but you're just insane if you dismiss 80s cinema because of how commercial it was when compared to nowadays these movies are masterpieces. At least Hollywood was doing genuinely original films with inventive scenarios and characters. The theaters were packed and many of these 80s blockbusters are so firmly ingrained in our cultural consciousness they are basically our national fairy tales like Back to the Future and Star Wars. Critics at the time deemed 1984 "a new low" for cinema -- today we cannot even imagine having this many well-regarded films coming out in the entire 2020s let alone for 1 year

The industry truly was a different beast back then
>random movie that no one today remembers
>made for $7 million
>one of the biggest hits of 1989 and made hundreds of millions of dollars from box office and home video
>>
>>216004628
Back to the future PC game says otherwise
>>
>>216005097
I saw this in the theater. It was a pretty big cultural thing. There was even some short lived talking baby sitcom
>>
>>216005097
This is so funny because the industry today is the polar opposite. Movies are made for $200 million and flop at the box office making $10 million

Literally 1984
