Must have been a pretty lean time for business.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 08-24-2011 09:57 PM                     August 23-25 1985 Looks like a certain sci-fi action film was still on top. Notice the second place film though! AJG  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia. Registered: Dec 1999 posted 08-24-2011 10:33 PM                     Rambo: First Blood Part 2 was up to $144 million. I had no idea it took so much. That's almost $706.5 million today!  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 08-24-2011 11:04 PM                     It's interesting: still a lot of sequels throughout the 80s...but a lot of them were pretty quality releases. Just some amazing hits during that time that just seem so foreign today. AJG  |  IP: Logged
