Michael J. Fox is one of my favorite 80s actors, and i enjoy his movies, especially "Doc Holywood"

What`s your favorite Fox movie?

nominee for best thread of the week?

ahem however i do love'THE FRIGHTENERS'

come to that i love back to the future!

My vote is for "Light of Day", but that's just because I like looking at Joan Jett.

the frighteners

im not a big fan of him but Casualties of War was a fantastic movie.

Back to the Future!

I always loved The Secret of My Succe$s

When I was younger, I had the biggest (secret) infatuation with MJF! He was attractive, compact, bowlegged... and CANADIAN! In retrospect, I can admit my obsession had nothing to do with his acting. I think he's pretty mediocre, actually.

Anyway, I thought Bright Lights, Big City was an interesting, if inferior, adaptation of the book. And Teen Wolf was great mindless fun.

He's a great comedic actor, one of the best. I love all the Back to the Future movies. And Greedy(Olivia D'abo is so delicious), The Hard Way, and Doc Hollywood.

I think he's only convincing and funny when he's playing frustrated. Other than that, I just never buy his performances.

That's probably my favorite of all the ultimately cheesy 80's movies.

Also Back to the Future. I still love Spin City.

Anyone remember him in Midnight Madness

Life with Mikey

Nathan Lane was in that, too. And the guy from Numbers, who was just a kid back then. I thought the girl was annoying, though. And shooting it in Canada made damn sure it didn't feel like NYC. Still, it wasn't completely awful.

In that "top five" rock-n-roll movies list, in my head, this is one of the five with purple rain.

u2prnce said:

Isn`t Cyndi Lauper in that movie?

Icicle said:

yup, she plays the receptionist. She's actually pretty good in it.
