Audio commentary time: You pick the '80s movie

Barfing pumpkin It was about this time last year that the Stuck in the '80s crew gathered for the first time in the Spears Lair to record our infamous commentary for Halloween. (Say it with me: "Lonnie!")

Okay, so it wasn't an '80s movie. And one of us didn't quite make it through the night without calling the Great Pumpkin with the big porcelain phone. But we're ready to gather and try again. We ... can ... do ... better! (i.e. we'll stick with beer only this time.)

But first we want to know: Which '80s movies deserve the Stuck in the '80s audio commentary treatment?

You can pick a holiday movie if you want to look ahead to Christmas (Scrooged maybe? Christmas Vacation?) Or you can pick something more evergreen (Goonies? Lost Boys?)

Ideally a good audio commentary should be for a movie that most of us own on DVD so you can watch the movie as you listen to our brilliant observations. Or it could be a movie you know by heart so you don't even have to watch it to enjoy our subtle analysis.

Drop us a comment below with your suggestions, and we'll pick a few movies and get to work!
