82 - crap TV sitcoms did me in.
I thought catching a fly with chopsticks was from “Kung Fu,” not “The Karate Kid”?
According to IMDB he was “Major Derlin”, whoever the hell that is. Suprised me, as well.
A 70. I stink at actors.
I never knew “Turning Japanese” (which I wouldn’t call “obscure”) was about masturbation! :eek: I must be naive.
He was a Rebel major on Hoth.
46 Not being American did me in.
Rubbish on rubbish films, rubbish on rubbish sitcoms, rubbish on adverts.
Not too many questions about anything of any sense at all
Shite survey, I’d have got half my score if I hadn’t simply guessed, actually guessed is a bit strong, I just pointed and clicked.
- It helps to watch VH-1.
I tanked on the movies. Although those were very nitpicky questions…
Of course if it would help if I actually SAW some of those movies. 
56, not being an American. About right, given the exposure to American TV and movies over here.
76 for me.
Cliffy (John Ratzenberger) was also in Superman II. He’s a NASA technician, and he’s in that scene where the bad aliens show up on the Moon, and one of the astronauts on the Moon says “It looks like a girl” and they discuss if he said “Curl”, which the Russain old timers called a comet. He was also in Firefox as one of the guys in charge of refueling the plane on the ice flow.
I had all three of these movies on tape, which is why I know this utterly worthless fact. Maybe if I’d been watching Thundarr the Barbarian instead I would have scored higher…
65 - I was 16 when the 80s ended and I didn’t come to the States till '98…so for a foreigner I would say a pretty impressive score
- American. I spent that decade in bars, so I missed the television of the time; did fine on the music.
You just described my 90’s, Ringo.
68! And the 80s was MY generation.
I got all the music questions, but tv, especially cartoons threw me off. I was only allowed to watch one hour of tv a week growing up.
And look at me now!
for a laugh try the address with 70 instead of 80
77, missed most of the music questions.
My co-worker got a 75, missing most of the TV ones.
- I knew very few of the TV questions – including “Who shot J.R.?” – and I was born in 1968!
70 - and I missed most of the TV questions. Cartoons and lousy sitcoms did me in.
And Hamadryad the misspelled words irritated me too! Come on, how hard is dandruff to spell? Ugh - getting irritated over an internet 80s quiz.
