Wow...my list is actually pretty long (and I'll likely think of ten others upon posting this blog). Growing up in the country we lived in an area that did not receive cable (translation: we had four basic channels). Due to a lack of variety (and likely my mom's attempt at maintaining her own sanity whenever the weather was bad outside) we often rented movies. As a result, I grew up on a steady diet of 80's flicks...I've come to realize they just don't make movies like they used too.

I did think of more:
9 to 5
Teen Wolf
Can't Buy Me Love
E.T.
Cocktail
The Graduate
Top Gun
Inner Space
Revenge of the Nerds
Animal House
Footloose
Three Men and a Baby
Short Circuit
Big
Beaches
Big Business
