Author: My older brother has had alot of problems over the years…but one thing he is NOT…is boring. The other day, we were at mom’s shooting the breeze…and we wound up talking about some of the cool 80s movies we haven’t seen in a while. One of those happened to be Revenge Of The Nerds. My brother can do a mean Ogre impersonation…though when we were kids, he reminded me more of booger. He very rarely lets me film him, so he must have been in a really great mood to let my husband and I catch his Ogre impersonation on camera (and of course, Ms. I-have-to-have-all-the-attention-on-me joined in with him….she had no idea what we were talking about, but that didn’t stop her).
Another favorite of ours were the Police Academy movies….maybe I can get him to do his Bobcat Goldthwait impersonation one day. While he was all the time going around asking where to put the batteries when we were kids, I was dressing up and acting out Grease and Dirty Dancing (seriously, I had both of the entire movies memorized). I probably drove my family nuts dancing around the house, pretending to be Baby and “flying” on the arm of the couch (give me a break, I didn’t have a hunky partner to throw me in the air, so I improvised)…or standing on my chair stage, serenading my audience about my hopeless devotion to Danny Zuko. *sigh* Those were the days….

Grease and Dirty Dancing – My all time favourite movies
“Nobody puts Baby in the corner”… *swoon* Love the 80′s! xx
Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier. I love a little 80s nostalgia and was also hopelessly devoted to Grease and Dirty Dancing. I carried a watermelon…
Now tht must have been en interesting visit with your brother! It looks like they had a hilarious time!
I made the mistake of renting “footloose” one night (the old one, not the new one). Why do I remember it begin soooo much better back when it first came out?
I LOVE that movie!! I am a proud owner of Footloose (old, not new…but…I did break down and rent the new one and it’s not bad). Last Christmas, I actually found the movie “Teen Witch”…which I LOVED as a kid…but after watching now…it’s really not that great lol. Funny how that works
I think I saw Revenge of the Nerds twice
. I love the 80s! I guess it was because I was that age when I was carefree and living in the moment. Grease was my favorite too. How about the Ghostbusters? I loved that too. Happy times… 
Oh, I loved Ghostbusters too! They had some really great movies…and MUSIC in the 80s!
“I got chiiiiiiiiils, they’re multiplying…”
hah! I took my daughter to see the Katy Perry movie and this whole entire song/video played in the preview section. The theater was full of people (the parents) singing. All my daughter could do was roll her eyes…he he he. It’s a song she’s heard her whole life, you know. ;o)
How can you NOT love Grease? lol My kids like that movie too….but I doubt they could sing the songs.
Ha ha! I love this! I haven’t thought about those movies in soooo long! Loved them then, would they be funny now? Who didn’t love Grease???? And the Dirty Dancing sound track?? I too would dance in my kitchen with the noisiest pair of shoes I could find!!!! I also loved Pretty in Pink and 16 Candles!
16 Candles is a fav of mine too, along with the Breakfast Club! Great movies!
Grease…Dirty Dancing…Footloose…Fame…ALL of the John Hughes films. The 80s were a great time. Bad fashion trends and all. Thanks for the walk down memory lane AND the funny Ogre impersonation!
You are welcome! I agree that all the John Hughes films are pretty great!
April… Having survived the 80s right out of high school (class of ’81) I can not tell you how many times we saw all these movies you speak of.. all I can say is that I am so happy to say that I survived the shoulder pads and big hair! LOL! Thank you for bringing back these wonderful memories back to life. Blessings to you and yours. PS Your brother.. hysterical!!
Haha! You’re welcome! Blessings to you and yours too!
HA! I personally loved the guy on Police Academy that made all the weird sounds. And Dirty Dancing? Oh yeah. Balancing on every log I could find. I was still rather young, so most of these movies were acted out with my Barbies.
Blessings,
