I didn't really like Breakfast Club. I thought it was a bit on the dramatic side, but I loved Back to the future I and II and also Robocop and oh the movies of the 80s were better than the 90s, I think!
Top Gun with Tom Cruise
Uncle Buck was a good movie too!
Terminator as well!
there's alot and I can't mention all, but I definately loved the movies of that decade!
Oh wait, almost forgot Ninja Turtles, Karate Kid, Ghostbusters!

I was born in 86 so don't really remember the 80's. But my favourite was The Never Ending Story... I have no idea if it was from the 80's or 90's but I loved it and still do.
This is a tough one because there were a lot of great movies from this era. I prefer the epics like "Gandhi" and "The Last Emperor." I also like "Full Metal Jacket" and "The Untouchables." I guess for movies that are purely connected to the 80's my picks would be "Fast Times At Ridgemont High," "The Breakfast Club," "Sixteen Candles," and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."
