    I hate picking one favorite of anything! 

    I loved Pretty in Pink and Some Kind of Wonderful. One of my faves was def Mr. Mom with Michael Keaton. I need to see that again. It's been forever. I also loved Tootsie and On Golden Pond. 

    I honestly don't think I've ever seen this movie. Weird.

    I'm not sure if this is the 80's but it should be.  Anna Farris.  She's THE BEST.

  • I didn’t realize the doors is an 80’s movie. I saw it in late 90’s. I liked it too.

    It's hard to pick one and not, say, 15,000 haha. But "Earth Girls are Easy" is actually a really funny movie that parodies the 80's while it was still the 80's, which is impressive. Also "Real Genius" with Val Kilmer is a great movie, Back to School is a comedy I think is really underrated, let's see what else... Beetlejuice, Scrooged, Die Hard, Empire Strikes Back, Indiana Jones Back to the Future the Road Warrior the Princess Bride the King of Comedy theMasquitoCoastDayoftheDeadAliensTerminatorSouthernComfortPinkFloydtheWallAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    And also Girls Just Wanna Have Fun is pretty good too.

    "Aaaaaaaaaas yoooooouuuuuuu wiiiiiiiii-" and then his neck brakes. I do find it kind of jarring that the movie ends right here so abruptly only 25 minutes in. Call it a flaw I guess.

  • I don’t remember how that movie ended. But if it was like that i would have never forget it. You should remake it and do like that.....
            The end.
