Comprehensive 80s Movie List (As Per Rotten Tomatoes)

COMPREHENSIVE list of 501 movies from yearly (1980-1989) top movie lists taken directly from the Rotten Tomatoes website.

Special note: My pal David de la Fe pointed out that DragonHeart was actually made in 1996 and it's listed incorrectly as 1986. This site does not allow me to remove the movie.
