So I'm in my office listening to the 80's station on Pandora and it brings back memories of old favorite 80's movies. Some of my faves are...

The Breakfast Club
The Legend of Billie Jean
Who's That Girl
Breakin
Mannequin
The Last Dragon

What are some of yours?

    Great list. Believe it or not...Breakin' was on the other night, and I clicked over to it...and I ENDED UP WATCHING THE WHOLE MOVIE! lol. The movie critic in me recognized that it was a horrible movie. But I couldn't change it. Maybe it's like a car accident...horrible to see, but you can't turn away.

    Let me add to the list:

    The Terminator
    Ferris Bueller's Day Off
    ScarFace (might have the most F-words of all time)
    Stand By Me
    Wall Street (who didn't love Gordon Gecko??)
    Ghost Busters

    Great thread, Kyla!

    I think what I love most about The Breakfast Club is that it is a movie I grew up with, and my kids, who are 22, 21, 20, 16, and 13 all love it too.....a movie that NEVER gets old!
