Space Camp - wanted to give my parents a hint which summer camp I wanted to go to. Didn't work and end up going to a cheezy summer camp.

From about the age of 3 to now:

The Goonies
Adventures in Babysitting
Back to the Future
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Honey I Shrunk the Kids(that was late 80s early 90s right?)
Space Camp
Parenthood
The Breakfast Club

And too many others to think of. Still watch most of them now.

My favorite 80s films:
Gremlins
Goonies
Indiana Jones
Blade Runner

I'm far more obsessed with certain 80s rock groups, though...

When I think of the 80s, I immediately think of Sixteen Candles. That movie captured the angst of my teenage years perfectly!!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

Cheesy, yet, fun!

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

-Ferris Bueller's Day Off
-16 Candles
-Dirty Dancing

And my absolute favorite... THE BREAKFAST CLUB. Wow, it's so good.

Did anyone see this movie called "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead"? Christina Applegate's in it. It's really cheesy, in a fun 80s way.
