What 80's movie character would you want to be for 1 week. You would live that characters life for 1 whole week as they would and return to yours as you left it bringing nothing back with you, not even the memory of it. Oh yeah, leave money out of it, after all it's just a week. An explanation of your choice would be great if time allows. Heck, do a top 5 if you want. I'm easy.

I would be Chris Knight from "Real Genius." Oh wait, I already played that part in the 80s, except for the fuzzy bunny slippers. Posts: 2008 | From: Dixieland | Registered: Oct 2008 | Site Updates: 0

Nice choice Crash(and everyone else). I have Chris Knight in my top 3 of my long list along with Roy Hobbs cause I love baseball and he did freaky stuff on the field and Maverick from Top Gun

Since the character is from One Crazy Summer, the most recent '80s movie I've watched, I'll go with Egg Stork. I'm up for dressing in a Godzilla costume and crashing a fancy party!

Sorry - for some reason I just had to quote this......
I guess most of us would pick the character for the stuff that happens in the movie.
Naturally for me, Keith Nelson is a given, as long as it's THAT week, and not, for example, a week where he spends all of his time up to his armpits in sump oil from a Chevy.
Other suggestions:
Del Griffith - the week AFTER the events in PT&A. Walter Gibson. Actually with Gib, just about ANY week would be cool. Ferris of coourse - always did appreciate the role Mia Sara had in his life...

Pee Wees Playhouse? Is that a real house someone lives in today or just a front or something to that effect built for the movie. And any idea where it is located if it is a real home.

(As tempted as I am to start my week in the back of the limo on my way to the Valley Sheraton.. instead, I choose the night of the party! btw, can I switch the girl that week too? )
2. Del from The In Crowd
(A week of wicked dance moves that start at a quarter to three!)
3. Rick from Just One of the Guys
(I'll definitely take Rick's week of Passion In Paradise!)
4. Cru from RAD
(I'll start my week with "Send Me An Angel" .. right now!)
5. O.T. from Spring Break
(A week on Spring Break as this guy .. )

Gotta go back, it is a real house that somebody lives in today and here is the link to prove it.

This would be way higher on my list if the criteria had been (1) night and I could combine the characters played by the same actor. ha
Bonus pick: Bruno X (uh or Cliffy mistaken for Bruno X from Modern Girls - I'm torn) Posts: 7845 | From: Smiling and glancing in awe in the back of a limo | Registered: Mar 2003 | Site Updates: 22
