Real Genius(1985)
Val Kilmer. This is a typical 80s movie. Really goofy plot, kinda
funny. I saw this at the Theater when it came out. I really love
this movie. I think it's the Tears for Fears song at the end that
really makes me dig the movie. This also has that jerk from the Die Hards

Fast times at Ridgemont High
This is a classic. It has a lot of people that went on to stardom later
on. You want to see the full non TV version for the extra juicy funny
scenes.
Stand By Me
This movie rocks. We got Westly Crusher from STNG, Corry Feldman (crappy 80
movies king), and Jerry O'connell from My Secret Identity, Sliders, Scream
2. It's a story of 4 boys on a mission and it has plenty of laughs too.
That puke scene man, has me laughing every time.
The Goonies (1985)
Great adventure movie. I named one of my rabbits after Chunk.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
Matthew Broderick. Everyone loves this movie. The story about a dude
skipping school and getting away with it. I think the band Save Ferris
got their name from this movie also.

Pretty in pink (1986)
Maybe it should go in the chick movies section but it's 80s. I love all those
Molly Ringwold movies. It's a story of a poor girl trying to find a man in
a rich snob school. It has the secretary from Ghostbusters and some
bitchin' tunes. I bought this baby. I saw it at the Drive-In along with
Smokey & The Bandit 3 when it came out.

The Breakfast Club (1985)
It's a movie about spending time in detention and yet it's great. It's a movie about nothing yet you
can identify with it because it's about kids and how they are treated in school. It's about clics and fitting
in. It's about parents. Even the adults talk about their lives and how things have turned out. It's
got Emillio Estavez (I love many his movies) Ally Sheedy, Molly Ringwald, Judge Nelson and
that other guy. It's a John Hughes Movie (tons of hits)

Say Anything
A romantic comedy with John Cuesack. I think this is a pretty cool
movie, it's kinda funny.
Lucas (1986)
With Charlie Sheen, Courtney Thorne-Smith, Winona Ryder (yuck) and
starring Corey Haim. "A young nerdy boy hopes to gain
acceptance in a high school by not backing down". It's a nice
growing up type movie.
The Karate Kid (1984)
A classic movie that many people have seen. Now that you watch it
agin, it's totally lame, especially the fighting compared to say
a Jackie Chan Movie but it was great at the time. It's also got
Elisebeth Shue.
Adventures in Babysitting (1987)
The story was unbelievable for sure but who cares. Eliz Shue and
she was HOT!
