10 Reasons Why 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' Is The Best Movie You've Never Seen

By Tanya
I know there are a lot of great movies from the eighties. Whether you wanted horror, action, romance, or comedy, there is something amazing in every category. But there is one genre that the eighties managed to excel in more than the others: Dance movies. There were a lot of great movies like Dirty Dancing, Flashdance and Footloose that are still talked about to this day, but there's one movie that was made in 1985 that is constantly forgotten, even though it really should not be. How many of your have seen Girls Just Want To Have Fun? If you

15 Cuddly Toys From The '80s That We Couldn't Sleep Without

By Tanya
Growing up in the 80s meant that we didn't have a lot of electronics. Sure, there were some video games at arcades. For the most part we were at home with our imaginations and our stuffed animals. Hundreds of tea parties and teddy bear picnics were held in our living rooms, all featuring a cast of cuddly toys that were so special to us. How many of these toys did you have when you were a kid?

14 Toys That Will Make All 80s Kids Say "Oh Yeah, That"

By Meg
Are the toys that kids play with today really "toys?" Can a drone classify as a toy? The answer is no. They're gadgets, and yes there is a difference. When we were growing up, we had to have imagination. We were given a yo-yo and told to "have fun." Really? With this piece of plastic on a string? But we somehow managed and now we're (kinda) well-rounded adults. These were some of the toys we had growing up, and even if you don't remember them now, you will after reading this list. 1.

Fireball Island Is Coming Back, And It's Bigger And Better Than Ever Before

By Tanya
We all became completely obsessed with the board game Fireball Island when we were kids. The game has become one of those relics from our past that is now worth a good chunk of change. The board game itself is listed for hundreds of dollars online and while I love the game, I don't know that I could justify paying that much for it.I mean, it's a classic, but I just can't justify it. Luckily for me, I won't have to. Because even though we all complain that everything old comes back, this time it's actually a good thing.

'Mannequin' Was One Of The Weirdest Movies Of The 80s, And We've Still Got Some Questions

By Tanya
I know that 80s movies are a category of their own. Sure, there are rom-coms and action movies, but then there are also 80s rom-coms and 80s action movies. They are different, they are unparalleled, and they are just better than other movies. Case in point: Mannequin. The outrageously bizarre 80s rom-com brings joy to all of our hearts (or at least those lucky enough to remember it) even though the premise is absolute bonkers. Here's the thing, I love this movie with my whole heart. I can probably quote the entire thing to you right now (I won't) but

Caboodles Vintage Cases Are Back In Stores And You Can Get One For A Steal

What year is it again? With the fanny pack as the new "it" bag, Sony bringing back the original PlayStation, the Backstreet Boys releasing new music, and shows like Party of Five returning to our television screens, I don't blame you for double checking that the calendar says 2018, not 1998. There's a serious 90s revival going on at the moment and so many of the things we loved, hated or just loved to hate, are once again becoming part of our lives. At the top of the list of the things that so many of us 90s girls definitely

By Tanya
As we all get older and start having our own families, names start to become something that people consider a little bit more. Whether it's for your future child or your future pet, it is always nice to name things after something that means a lot to you. For all of us 80s and 90s kids, that means we have a lot of really iconic names to choose between. Whether it was movies, TV shows, music artists or anything else, there are so many iconic pop culture names that we should absolutely consider when we have to name something in

Debbie Gibson Opens Up About Being A Teen Star, And One Fan's "Dying Wish"

By Tanya
Debbie Gibson first came into our lives in the mid 80s with her song "Only In My Dreams." The singer/songwriter released the single in 1986, and was signed immediately. She recorded her first album in only four weeks, and managed to make her way onto the Top 40 charts. Gibson would later become the youngest artist to write, produce, and perform a Billboard number-one single, which she earned for her song "Foolish Beat." She was one of the biggest names in pop music in the 80s, and her bowler hats and rolled up jeans made her the style icon

'Alf' Is Getting A Reboot, So You'd Better Keep An Eye On Your Cats

By Tanya
When you look back on the 80s, one of the most beloved shows that people still reminisce about is definitely a weird one. ALF was released in 1986, and starred an extraterrestrial named ALF. It was an acronym for "Alien Life Form,"  and somehow this weird little creature ended up living in a suburban home with a family. Even though I watched most of this series, I don't know that I could explain the reasoning behind any of this, but the fact of the matter was puppets were pretty popular and it managed to become a huge hit.
