I was a kid back then too, but I always loved Dirty Dancing! (Mom made me close my eyes for the one kissy part!) I loved the soundtracks from Footloose and Flashdance too but I don't think I ever watched the whole movies.

My other favorites were The Chipmunk Adventure and CareBears in Wonderland!

My Favorite 80's movies are Blood Sport, Short Circit, and uncle Buck. My first movie quote I learned was "hey lazor lips, your mama was a snow blower."

lol..Thanks!!! that brought me back!!!!
Im a little older than you and my daughter, who was a tiny sweet toddler then, made me watch "Neverending Story" with her at least a hundred times. I actually knew most of the dialogue at one point. Though she always cuddled up to me when the wolf jumped out of the cave to get Atrayu!!!

Oh i love 80s movies! I have been buying the classic ones on dvd and my 5 year old son loves watching them, especially the Goonies - he will watch it over and over - and I don't mind because its one of those rare movies that you can watch over and over and never get bored with it!
I have so many movies Iloved watching but I cannot remember them all!

Does anyone remember a movie called Eddie and the Cruisers?
(I think I saw Footloose at the movie theatre about 4 times while it was playing.)
