rub120 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Just saw Staying Alive on HBO earlier today... Sure brings back the 80s feelings again... especially the music I think Staying Alive was originally shown in the late 70's, but im not really sure. Quote Link to comment
hitman531ph Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Saturday Night Fever was in 1977. The sequel is Staying Alive which came out in 1983. Quote Link to comment
nohankypanky Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 the year i was born. it was also during this era that i first watched Firestarter and E.T, the era when i got addicted to Madonna and her look (lace stockings and all), the era when Maricel Soriano, William Martinez, Snooky Serna, Albert Martinez and Roderick Paulate were movie kings and queens of local cinema...miss my youth!

mwah Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 gawd.... those shoulder pads AND skinny jeans!!!!! I remember asking for a Barbie doll... but my mom chose to buy me a die cast Voltes V robot instead. Coolness, di ba? I've had a handful of Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars as well but I had one and only one Barbie doll. Ay, meron din pala akong Evil-lyn. Syempre... the 80s would always remind me of cutesy Patrick Dempsey from Can't Buy Me Love and Happy Together. Oh but now he's so oh-so-hot-and-dreamy in Gray's Anatomy. Quote Link to comment

shrike Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 (edited) showdown of the 'sound mobiles'. instant parties : load the sound system in the back of the pickup, find a friend whose family is out on vacation, call lotsa hot friends, short trip to cherry foodarama and voila 80's new wave parties. used to wear loafers w/out socks, blazers over fruit of the loom shirt, Top 40s and Shambu line of shirts, 'boggart' pants, haruta shoes and the ever faithful sony walkman accesories. the cult classic movies : pulp fiction, RAD and hackers. hair mousse, ultra hold gels and egg whites are king ! honda prelude was a rarity back then and car phones are as big as your wenger overnighter bag now.

storm Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Saan kaya makakaabili ng mga DVD classics from the 80s? Naalala ko noon ang original nintendo game and watch. Tapos ang arcade games noon na favorite ko sa Greenhills ay pacman, pinball and space invaders. My 1 peso will last for hours. Sulit na sulit. Then nauso ang bump car sa Harrison Plaza. Sosi pa noon ang Dunkin Donuts, Coney Island and Pizza Hut na tumapat sa Shakey's. Favorite ko noon ang Jack's or Mother's Burger na owned by one family. Favorite din noon ang chocolate Mousse and ube cake ng Red Ribbon jan sa tapat ng Circle Theater in Quezon Ave. Mayroon pa noong Swibak owned by Swiss Inn where you could find the best black forrest and rum punch. Sugar House and Dulcinea were also sosi dating place for snacks after watching movies. Ang sarap ng chicken pie and apple pie ng sugar house and the churros and paella in Dulcinea. Then came Via Mare, the sosiest meryendahan for me in Greenbelt 1. Ubos ang baon kahit may sideline na ko noon. There was Texas Burger owned by Aristocrat. Who remembered Al Dente pasta house in Fiesta Carnival? The 1st A&W and Pizza Hut were also in Fiesta Carnival. Wala ng A&W (sayang). Night time naman ay sikat nang early 80s ang Velvet Slum, Queue, Stargazer, Isis na naging Louie Y. Nang mauso ang new wave came Culture Club, Route 66 and yung simpleng mobile. Quote Link to comment
karambula Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Syempre yung SM City North EDSA. Halos lahat ng tao nandoon. Saka yung kwarta o kahon sa may foodcourt ginagawa diba at 4K ata yung jackpot noon. (Daming taong nanonood sa taas kita pa sa TV). Quote Link to comment

Big Joe Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 ICEE stalls sa malls dati, sarap! May kiddie train pa dati sa gitna ng virramall and shopsville. Fiesta Carnival na may train na umiikot sa loob! Funhouse sa greenhills na bilihan ng mga fake blood at kung ano anong kalokohan. Pinanood ko pa noon yung Jedi Returns sa virramall, at may dala pa akong Yoda Tumbler galing sa jollibee 3rd floor :thumbsupsmiley: Lagi pa binibili sa aking ng parents ko Gregg na sapatos pampasok sa school. Nauso din nung grade school ako yung adidas Stan Smith, seasider, moccasin, nike air pressure, reebok pump! Nauso din nung elementary yung attache case, and dapat yung may combination para mas sikat ka - samsonite, echolac etc then late 80s dumagsa na ang mga carnival katulad ng payanig sa pasig saka big bang sa alabang :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment
