I love the Indiana Jones movies, so they're probably my favorite from the period.

Most of these I have seen more than once.

But you forgot a few:

Airplane ("I am serious, and don't call me Shirley")
Platoon
Return of the Living Dead Part 2 (yes, it's very cheesy and may not deserve to be up here, but it is funny as hell in parts. I remember watching this movie almost every day the summer I was 14 and laughing hysterically at: "Get that damn screwdriver out of my head!" and "Hey, fresh brains!")

Can't think of any more that you haven't already listed.

OH MY a lot of my favorites already up there, but here goes...some of them I'm hazy if they are the 80's or early 90's but anyways...

Beaches
Big
Pretty In Pink
Working Girl
Some Kind of Wonderful
Sixteen Candles
Mr. Mom
Multiplicity (was this the 80's??)
Torch Song Trilogy
Amadeus
Heathers
Legend of Billie Jean
Pump Up the Volume (once again 80's??)
Breakfast Club
The Outsiders
Pee Wee's Big Adventure
Betsy's Wedding (80's??)
For Keeps?
The Lost Boys
RainMan
Beetlejuice
Monty Python's Holy Grail and Life of Brian (80's??)

oh my that's enough for now my brain is in overload!!

On a side note from Mr. Mom I get such a kick out of Michael Keaton going to the deli counter the first time!! I think that's cause I feel so much like the lady working the counter when these poor guys come up with their shopping lists and tell me "turkey"...I love to go thru the list at mega speed just to confuse the heck out of them and then just tell them what they should get after going thru my 20 or so choices.

Goonies, The Princess Bride, and Better Off Dead are right up there. The last two, I watch every time they're on.

Better Off Dead is my ultimate favorite (Gee ricky, I'm sorry your Mom blew up), followed by Last American Virgin (chip?), Valley Girl (when Nick Cage was in the shower pretending to shoot everyone, I roar) and the Breakfast Club (chicks cannot hold their smoke - that's what it is)

I love so many 80's movies. I have a huge list, but these are my faves
