Unified Theory of 80's Movies

The fact that most all movies in the 80's had, at their core, a single running theme:

Bored suburban middle-to-upper-class white teens have crazy adventures and come full circle having learned a little about themselves.

How this particular zeitgeist arose is a matter of debate; its existence is not.

"Adventures in Babysitting, Mac & Me, Flight of the Navigator, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, License to Drive, Pretty In Pink, Mystic Pizza, The Wizard, Breakfast Club, Lucas, Gremlins, Risky Business, All the Right Moves, Back to the Future, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, The Boy Who Could Fly, Can't Buy Me Love, A Christmas Story, Dirty Dancing, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Goonies, Karate Kid, Labyrinth, Little Monsters, Lost Boys, The Monster Squad, Neverending Story, Pretty in Pink, Real Genius, Revenge of the Nerds, Say Anything, Sixteen Candles, Some Kind of Wonderful, Stand By Me, Weird Science and War Games are just a few of the movies from the 80's that fit under the Unified Theory of 80's Movies."

Hung like a can of 80/'

The only plausible reason for a hot chick to be dating a penniless dweeb. Pronounced "Eighty". Local variants, employing any beverage sold in cans larger than 400ml, are acceptable.

Agent 1: Why is Grace dating Ted? He's dumb, fugly and shit-broke, whilst the only two words to describe her are both "Hubba".

Agent 2: Word is, dude is hung like a can of 80/'.

I love the 80's 3d

a horrible spinoff of a great show that makes the people who comment on things act like celebrities when really people havent heard of them. also shows the crappy leftover shit that they never got around to discussing the first 2 shows.

person 1: Hey man, did you see I love the 80's 3d last nite?
person 2: um no only fags watch that shit
person 1: oh...
