\"Movie_Reel_22\"Many years ago, using the weekly TV guide that came with the Sunday Chicago Tribune, I started keeping track of all of the movies I had seen over the course of my lifetime. The guide would list the two main stars for each movie, and that is a tradition that I\u2019ve carried on in my database ever since. So, given those guidelines, it is time to look at the most prolific actors that have starred in the movies that I have seen in the second half of the decade of the 1980s.<\/p>\n

1986<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n

For the first time, our leaders have appeared in more than one movie that I saw throughout the year.\u00a0 Raymond Burr makes his first of many appearances due to the Perry Mason<\/em> television films.\u00a0 Lea Thompson appears thanks to half of her starring roles, with the favorite SpaceCamp<\/em> and the not-so-favorite Howard The Duck<\/em>.<\/p>\n

1987<\/strong><\/p>\n
