About this listen

 Generation X. If you grew up in the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s, you know just how cool it was to be a kid back then. We had the greatest music, movies, games, technology, and pop culture of any generation, and though we've grown older, we have refused to outgrow our love of everything GenX. GenXGrownUp looks at yesterday and today through the eyes of Generation X'ers who have refused to grow up!All rights reserved 2017-2026

  • Top Box Office Hits of 1986

    Top Box Office Hits of 1986
    Mar 26 2026
    1986 was a massive year at the movies. Action heroes were larger than life, comedy was firing on all cylinders, and a few films arrived that would become all-time classics. From fighter jets and wise-cracking Aussies to martial arts showdowns and sci-fi horror, the box office was packed with unforgettable hits. Today, we’re counting down the ten highest-grossing films of 1986—the movies audiences lined up around the block to see and the ones that helped define the pop-culture landscape of the mid-’80s.
