You know for some reason when people say eighties movies...

I ONLY think of the Molly Ringwald type teen movies and Ghostbusters.

BttF and Indy are on a whole different level than all the other eighties movies to me.

Geez....now I feel like watching Ghostbusters...

Ah...Tron

Return of the Jedi
Empire Strikes Back

I concur with Ghostbusters

The Breakfast Club is THE definitive 80's teen angst movie

Police Academy
Transformers The Movie
Back to the Future
Nightmare on Elm Street (Not necessarily a fan, but it did work it's way into pop culture in a big way.)
Top Gun
Karate Kid
Karate Kid 2
Rocky 3
Rocky 4 - Where were you when Apollo died

That's all I got right now. I was trying to think of a few that haven't been mentioned.

Derek stole all mine.

Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, Martin Short...you can't beat that...

wait, that's a lie...Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, and Harold Ramis can beat that.
