You can't make a list like this and not include "16 Candles". It's another great 80s title.

Oh, and "The Warriors" and "The Wanderers" both came out in 1979.

It's just my shtick, 80sfreak and MotleyRulz. How many times do I have to say that it's all a joke?

I say just go through the list on the main page, and if something looks like it might be fun - go get it!

Half of the thrill is in the discovery!

All the above are excellent choices, but one "gem" is missing from the lists above. You should also include Mischief.
One of my personal favorites. "Can you drive this thing? ____ yea!" <-- top quote from the movie.
