pehaps not the flims that are sentimental, but the laughs the times I've watched them... I grew up watching goonies, wierd science, breakfast club, lost boys, ferris... Loved that era of film making.

steveb · 01-09-2007, 05:15

I getcha! The Breakfast Club is pretty good, I can identify with that having sat through more than my fair share of detentions.

pgo · 01-09-2007, 08:49

I loved all those cheese-laden 80s movies. Ferris tops them all, of course.

There are so many movies I love that I couldn't begin naming them.
