In PART TWO of our look at the movies of 1984, we spotlight films that are still churning out sequels and nostalgia to this day, including The Terminator ("I'll be back!"), psycho killer Freddy Krueger, a mermaid love story, and so many more movies in that magical year. So join us as we continue back to the time of big hair, leg warmers, Thriller... and Arnold Schwarzenegger one-liners.

1984 was a pivotal year in pop culture—it gave us the LA Olympics, Purple Rain, and Apple Macintosh. But it was also an incredible time for movies, giving us fan-favorite classics that still hold up today, such as Gremlins, Karate Kid, Star Trek 3, Ghostbusters, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and more! 1984 was the true Revenge of the Nerds at the Box Office.

Marvel is the biggest film franchise of all time, having grossed almost $30 billion at the global box office. But with a lackluster performance these past few years—both in theaters and on Disney+—many have asked if the Studio has lost its direction. Are the glory days of Marvel in the past? With Deadpool 3's trailer breaking records, and excitement building around 2024 and beyond, we take a look at where Marvel is now, and if they're poised to regain their box-office and pop culture crown.
