25 1980s Comedies That Still Hold Up According to Wealth of Geeks

Let's be honest, some of our favorite movies haven't aged as well as we hoped. Sure, we may have laughed our heads off at Police Academy or Revenge of the Nerds when we watched them in the theater, but today, we'd be hard-pressed to even snicker at these flicks. Sometimes, the problem comes from changing social standards, making what was once an off-color gag into a serious offense. Sometimes, it's just that we've grown older, and the things that amused us as teens no longer amuse us as adults.But even though some 1980s comedies deserve to be forgotten, the decade still has a ton of gems that are just as fun today as they were 40 years ago. From sharp-witted satires to good-natured spoofs to heart-warming romantic comedies, the 80s had some of the best movies of all time. So if you want a dose of nostalgia and some timeless laughs, check out one of these 25 films.
