What are some dance movies from the 80s?
SING! (I swear, I think the exclamation point is part of the title) hee! It's not, but Lorraine Bracco was the lead!
Dirty Dancing, definitely
Strictly Ballroom? eh, IMDB reminds me it's 1992
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
But how well would you hurt other people?
Just talking about stuff currently in my house? Probably the hammer, in my untrained opinion. A good swing that hit anywhere would hurt like hell. A knife, I feel like I'd have to get in closer and be more precise to do real damage, and I'd be more likely to hurt myself. Of course, I have no idea, and actually hope I never am involved in hand-to-hand in my apartment.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
What about Streets of Fire, eh?

Another dance movie from the 1980s: Cotton Club (well, it had the Hines brothers in it).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
As a kravver, we're told we'll get cut in a knife fight, so just suck it up and don't be startled and hope you take them out before they get in a good one.
Hammers are easier to avoid.

Well, if I'm in a fight in my apartment with anyone with any training (or anyone else, really), I'm pretty much screwed anyway, and would jump out the window or something, rather than going for the steak knives.
I mean, I'm no Jason Bourne, you know? (ON TOPIC!!)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hammers aren't ANYWHERE near as good weapons. This my bloodthirst assures me.
Unless your bloodthirst is for brains splattered on the walls and ceilings.
Anyone heard about Code 46? Sounds interesting.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
There's White Knights, with Hines and Baryshnikov.

I can't even.
As a kravver, we're told we'll get cut in a knife fight, so just suck it up and don't be startled and hope you take them out before they get in a good one.
The winner of the knife fight is the one who ends up in hospital.
Well, if I'm in a fight in my apartment with anyone with any training (or anyone else, really), I'm pretty much screwed anyway, and would jump out the window or something, rather than going for the steak knives.
How much fun is that!?! Get back here! I'll bite yer legs off.
