The 1980s was an extraordinary era for film enthusiasts like myself. As a child, I wished to frequent cinemas more than I actually did, but I never missed the opportunity to catch as many of the ’80s’ most iconic films, including those that reigned supreme at the box office. This reminiscence of my movie-watching experiences came back to me while creating this quiz, which centers around the highest-grossing film from each year during the 1980s according to box office returns.
A couple of things to note before we get to the quiz.
- The list is based on U.S. domestic box office totals, according to Box Office Mojo.
- Each answer is the highest grossing movie to release each year from 1980 to 1989 (which may or may not be the same as the movie made the most money within that calendar year).
Do you think you can guess the biggest movie release for each year? Best of luck to you!
