THE SITE: http://www.80s.com/Entertainment/Movies/Directory/

 

So it is made in 1987 or 1988, and it is on one of the lists from those years, but is NOT in the text of the page, just linked.

 

The two years:

Good-Bye, Hero (1988) (not on imdb??)

Hip Hip Hurra! (1987)

Out, per clues re: genre and # of words

Big Top Pee-wee (1988) - Comedy

Bye Bye Vietnam (1988) - Action

Code Name Alpha (1987) - Action

Comic Book Confidential (1988) - merriam-webster.com says comic book IS two words

Death Row Diner (1988) - merriam-webster.com says death row IS two words

Pick-up Artist, The (1987) - first word "the"

Right Hand Man, The (1987) - first word "the"

Snack Bar Budapest (1988) - merriam-webster.com says snack bar IS two words

Dead End City (1988) - Action

Torch Song Trilogy (1988) - Comedy

White Water Summer (1987) - merriam-webster.com says white water IS two words

Possible clue by Paityr...

 

Keep in mind that merriam-webster.com is not the only dictionary...nor is the online version the only version of a Webster's Dictionary available to use. The dictionary I used to give the answer to that question definitely listed the wordS in question as a single word.

 

*hope he didn't just give away the answer*

 

If I did, I blame it on Empy for asking a stupid question about number of words in a title.

Some Analysis I did...

 

The list we are sure it is on. Really I could almost go with Big Top Pee-wee as I can see Paityr loving this movie but many people hating it. But it is a comedy... I guess (according to IMDB it is)

 

Any Man's Death (1988)

Big Top Pee-wee (1988)

Bye Bye Vietnam (1988)

Code Name Alpha (1987)

Comic Book Confidential (1988)

Dead End City (1988)

Death Row Diner (1988)

Good-Bye, Hero (1988)

Hip Hip Hurra! (1987)

Pick-up Artist, The (1987)

Right Hand Man, The (1987)

Snack Bar Budapest (1988)

Summer Camp Nightmare (1987)

Sweet Hearts Dance (1988)

Torch Song Trilogy (1988)

White Water Summer (1987)

 

 

The List we think we have narrowed it down too from previous questions....

 

Any Man's Death (1988) Drama

Plot Keywords: Independent Film

 

Good-Bye, Hero (1988)Chow Yun Fat, Foreign, Martial Arts

 

Hip Hip Hurra! (1987)Biography / Drama

Plot Keywords: Affair / Scandinavia / Artist / Painter

 

Summer Camp Nightmare (1987) Drama / Thriller

Plot Keywords: Summer Camp / Camp / Hanged Boy / Dead Boy / Hanging

 

Sweet Hearts Dance (1988)Drama

Plot Keywords:Human Relationship

 

Comic Book Confidential (1988)Documentary / History

Plot: Art History / Art / Based On Comic / Cartooning / Censorship

 

Death Row Diner (1988)Horror

Plot: Film In Film / Independent Film

 

Snack Bar Budapest (1988) Porn

 

White Water Summer (1987) Adventure / Drama

Plot: Opening Narration / Campfire / Peer Pressure / Teenager / Voice Over Narration

 

From the above, I think we can safely rule out Snack Bar and Comic Book.

 

From the list we think it is from, we have:

Drama: 5

Foreign: 1

Independent: 2

Horror: 1

Adventure: 1

We have two questions left.  Please be smart about what you ask.
