   Close.  7 to 10.  1984 to 1987 which produced iconic movies like Aliens,   
   The Fly, Ghostbusters, Beverly Hills Cop I and II, Temple of Doom, Back   
   to the Future, Gremlins, Karate Kid I and II, Star Trek IV, The   
   Neverending Story, Return to Oz, The Princess Bride, Transformers: The   
   Movie and so much more!  40 years later these movies are still talked   
   about and loved.  Being a kid in the 80s will never be touched when it   
   comes to the movie going experience!
