List of Movies & TV shows during Golden Age of Arcades

I have a TV in the game room and I only wanna watch Movies and TV shows that came out during the Golden Age of Arcades 1979-1985 .


Movies that remind you of playing in the movie theater arcade ,

TV shows that you watched and then rode your bike to the 711, bowling alley...to play arcade games .

Only stuff released between 1979-1985 .

Heres a couple that remind me of that time period .
