    Oh wow! I hate picking favorites! I :heart: :heart: :heart: every movie listed.

    I will just say that John Hughes and Steven Spielberg and Robert Zemekis were my heroes in the 80s. If they made it, I watched it.

    Save Ferris!

    Just something about that movie that takes me right back (being born in 71 and all ...).

    From the Ferrari being driven by the car park guys to the Twist and Shout sequence ... all awesome.

    Yes!!!!!! Even my kids loved that one. It's probably their favorite 80s movie by far.

    And you are my brother's age. I was born in '74.
