Movies released in the 80s that have aged poorly and a special report in which we compile the reviews of the most emblematic titles.
What years those were! The 80s! Hairspray galore, shoulder pads, backing, legwarmers… Nostalgia evaporates a little when we remember the horrible fashion of the time, but we keep smiling remembering how things were.
This week we go into troll mode to recover the 80s movies that have aged the worst…And because we did not want to extend ourselves too much, because there was a lot to draw from.
If we honor the truth, as is evident, technology has evolved a lot but so has the tolerance of viewers, who are less and less satisfied with “anything.”
After enjoying a movie like Godzilla Minus One in the cinema and a perfect integration of special effects… who doesn't see that Fuyu looks like a flying stuffed dog in The Neverending Story?
Thus we arrive at the debate in question: we should not judge the works with today's eyes… but the fact is that even at the time the films we are going to talk about sowed controversy: bad adaptations, boring plots, horrible character designs, overacting, implausible situations…
If to all of the above, which is already a lot, we add the inexorable passage of time, there are still more than two who prefer not to corrupt their memories and keep the image they have of those tapes. Or rather with the mark they left on them.
“It is not possible to bathe in the same river twice, because new waters always flow over you,” said Heraclitus in one of his aphorisms. We can transfer it to the viewing experience: you will never see the same movie twice because as an observer you will have changed and you will not perceive it in the same way.
We are not going to get more philosophical but we are going to remind you that, in line with this brief report on the movies from the 80s that have aged poorly, you have the reviews of many of them and a few more in our special. Do not miss it!
