I was a little older than you in 1985. I remember the TV movie The Day After.


Was that movie about what would result in case of a nuclear disaster?


I also recall Reagan's Star Wars speech. Ah, the '80's: the music, the movies, the cars, the attitude! Dang, now I really wish that I had a time machine so that I could go back and thoroughly enjoy that decade...(time to buy an IROC-Z and grow a mullet)



I remember being overseas, the Philippines. Dad was in Navy. Getting a taste of the local culture...but anything 80s is cool for me. --Fee

Yeah, The Day After really focused on a Kansas town and its residents in the wake of a Soviet first strike, but it also touched on the broader results of such a strike. It was freaky stuff back then, but the production value seems campy by today's standards.

How many folks here remember the TV mini-series "V"?
