As opposed to the 70s, which were a horrible decade to be in high school. Lessee . . . bubble gum or disco?Not a total waste: Foreigner, Journey, Styx, REO, ELO, Blondie, The Cars, The Police, and oh yeah:

In my youth, I was torn between Ally Sheedy and Molly Ringwald.

Oh yeah - I was a young man in the 80’s, an early 20’s Reagan Youth who not only loved Foreigner, ACDC, KISS, Molly Hatchet, Kansas and Styx, but the great New Age & Punk stuff that came out. Couple that with MTV (back when it was good) and life was indeed sweet.

Two words, “Ally Sheedy.”

Indeed.
She was very cute and appealing in War Games.
I thought her and Broderick were very natural in their roles as well, and I am not a big fan of the “art of acting”.
The computer geeks might have stolen the show, though.

Well.........I was 27 when the movie came out and...I loved it. It took me back a few years to the time when my classmates were just as ‘lively’ lol. It was a really good movie and captured the mischievousness that all teens have. Save Ferris!

Have you ever watched ‘Dazed and Confused’? It eptomizes the 70’s. I had a blast so don’t really know why you think the 70’s were a horrible decade to be in high-school. :P
