I don't remember how many times I watched Dune with my cousin just for the sake of seeing Sting playing Feyd  !
And Harrison Ford ... Indiana Jones was just perfect!
Lost Boys, however, combined my two obsessions of my early teens: long-haired dudes and vampires .

Since you said before 1975 I guess I would have to be in this list. Not by much since that is the year I was born.
Axl sounded like he was trying to bring up a rat out of his thoart. I could not stand his singing. Now if you want a really good group go with Bon Jovi or Aerosmith or Posion or Skid Row. Oh don't forget Motley Crue!!
As for fashion let's not forget the all important leg warmers! *roll* |

Yes, I think GNR would've survived grunge ... Metallica did, Red Hot Chili Peppers did (although I'm still not sure in what category you would put these guys  !), Aerosmith did ...
... of course Axl felt the need to mess everything up. Figures, front men are a pain in the arse.
I remember asking Big Jim (Faith No More) about Axl. If I recall correctly and the language barrier didn't interfere, he shook his head and said something like: "Axl is from another planet."
But I do have very fond memories of GNR, I was a die hard fan, still am ... and they were the greatest English teachers. I learnt a very colorful vocabulary from them that left more than one of my teachers speechless .

Mmmm….Lost Boys. What more could you ask….Kiefer, Jason, long-haired vampires…**shiver**. I've got that movie on VHS and I still love it. Actually, my favorite was one of the lesser vampires that hung around in the background looking hot. His name is Billy Wirth, and here's a pic of him from that vintage.

Other 80s loves: Headbanger's Ball, esp. GnR, Dokken, Ratt, Bon Jovi (that man is still hot), Metallica. You get the idea. I had a thing about big hair.  |

They are trying to remake "The Lost Boys" Along with "The Goonies" "The Outsiders" and another installment of Indiana Jones is in the works.
Spielburg and Ford found a story that they both liked but the ass wipe known as Lucas didn't so it has gone back to the drawing boards yet again. |

I bet Vince Neil would love you for saying that about Axl ! Skid Row ... amazing, Sebastian Bach was just incredible as a front man.
Poison were fun ... and pretty ... and fun ... catchy music and great inspiration for make-up and clothing ... I'm not sure about good, though  !
80's fashion? Teased hair? Very teased hair ?

I liked Poison. But I do agree they were mostly a show band. Just like Warrent.
Lets add Whitesnake to that group also.
LOL the 80's the boom of the hairspary moguls! Can yall say AquaNet!? LMAO |

I must confess, I have all the Poison CD's (heavens, I even have a record of "Look What the Cat Dragged In" in Spain !). As I said, they were fun and I know all their songs by heart ... but I admit that they weren't "heavy" in the talent department.
Yep, like Warrant and their cherrypie !
Ah, 80's hairbands ... the memories ... I think I need to tune to VH1!

Motley Crue...oh yeah...'Smokin´in the boys room'....'Girls, Girls, Girls'...'Too fast for love'....Nikki Sixx... 
Aerosmith! Joe Perry...mmmm...I saw them in 1990 (?) and they were great! My mum ran into Steven Tyler earlier that day in a mall and became all fangirly.  I dragged her along to the show, and I swear, she was squeeing throughout the whole show!
Breakfast Club -- ooo, ooo...Judd Nelson! I wanted to be Ally Sheedy!
A friend of mine was a die-hard fan of White Lion, Poison and Whitesnake. They were....amusing. |

It wasn't all that bad. I was usually dating at least one football player at any given time. I became very shallow at about my sophmore year and developed a preference for dumb, blond jocks.
One of them was so dumb (how dumb was he?) that when we were in driver's ed we came to a stop sign and the teacher told him to turn right and instead he turns left. The teacher just looks at him until we get to the highway and then he asks why the left turn instead of the right. To which the guy responds - my hands were too close together and I got confused. But, oh man, he had a nice ass. You can overlook a lot of things for an ass like that. |

I used to like New Kids on the Block as well. I was 11 at the time. I had the dolls and everything.
Sadly I actually found one of their 7 inch singles in my house last time I cleared out...
I have absolutely no musical taste at all, nowadays.
