Your goal in this thread (should you choose to accept it) is to think of a movie that contains a montage of the main characters doing something set to music and post it.  (preferably video if you can find it)
And it must be from the 80's.
Sure, there have been musical montages in films not made in the 80's.  But 80's films just seem to do it so well!
It can be from a bad movie or a good movie.

I'll start off with this awesome bit from The Karate Kid. (1984)

Classic montage from Footloose.  Bacon in all his teaching-people-how-to-dance-glory...

This thread is frightening in more ways than can be possibly imagined.

I think the reason there were so many musical montages in the 1980s has to do with the fact that MTV and music videos were just taking off then, and popular movies always want to incorporate what's hip and trendy.
I'll take you places the hand of man has not yet set foot...

This one is a fan created video, but it still works.

Bloodsport (although its not the original montage in the movie...or the 80s... it gets the idea across)

Side note, my favorite montage is the one in Bill And Ted's Excellent adventure when Napoleon goes to the water park.  Alas, I can't find it on youtube.

Been having the same difficulty with the house cleanup from Revenge of the Nerds, set to 'One Foot in Front of the Other.'

Finding the actual montages from certain films can be difficult.
Sometimes we have to settle on a good fan-made video.

Like this one..

National Lampoon's Vacation (1983)
