Annette Funicello passed away today. While most will remember her as a Mouseketeer, hearing her name made me think of a silly 80s movie "Back to the Beach". It featured not only Frankie Avalon and Annette, but also Gilligan, Pee Wee Herman and Becky from Full House (Lori Laughlin).
I miss those fun silly movies that were funny without being filled with f-bombs. (Hey, I'm no prude, but I've got kids now and have to be careful about what's on) Movies like Summer Rental, One Crazy Summer, The Great Outdoors. Classic comedies.
I think it's nostalgia time. What are your favorite silly movies from the 80s - or even other decades for that matter?

For those of you who need an 80s fix, try the Carrie Diaries. Yes, Carrie is ridiculously perky, but I feel like I am watching an hour long John Hughes movie every Monday. And I love the character, Mouse. At least I think that is the name of the n
