20 More of the Most Memorable 80's Flicks

Okay, so I couldn't help myself. With so many great 80's films out there, how could I stick to just the original top 20 list? So, here are 20 more!

1. Teen Wolf. He just wanted to be noticed and appreciated. Being a werewolf wasn't the way he though that would happen.

2. Flight of the Navigator. That was one crazy Alien!

3. Earth Girls are Easy. Okay, I know it sounds like a cheesy p-o-r-n flick. But, I swear, it's not! Jeff Goldblum, Geena Davis, Jim Carrey, and Damon Wayans make an excellent combo!

4. Adventures in Babysitting. Who knew that babysitting a couple of kids could be so dangerous?

5. Aliens. The ultimate movie in the sci-fi/horror category!

6. The Terminator. In some ways, you could argue that the second installment was superior. But, this is the original! And, it's one of the few movies (if there even are anymore) where Arnie plays a bad guy, THE bad guy, in fact.

7. Baby Boom. A cute little comedy, that focused on one woman's struggle to balance her career, and a baby that she didn't even know existed.

8. Beetlejuice. Whatever you do, don't say his name out loud.

9. Beverly Hills Cop. An awesome comedy, with a serious story line.

10. Turner and Hooch. This dog was every clean freak's worst nightmare. But, he grows on ya.

11. Big. See what happens when you're in such a hurry to grow up?

12. Big Business. Bette Midler and Lilly Tomlin, playing twins seperated at birth, could only come together in a superbly funny way!

13. Big Trouble in Little China. Hilarity, drama, excitement, mysticism...

14. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Boy, I bet Keanu Reeves wishes he could break free of that stereotype!

15. The Blues Brothers. Few movies even come close to it's greatness.

16. Ghost Busters. Who ya gonna call?

17. Born on the Fourth of July. A touching tale of patriotism and courage.

18. Caddyshack. Pure, unbridled, comedy.

19. A Christmas Story. We STILL have to watch it every Christmas!

20. The Karate Kid. Sometimes, you just have to stand up for yourself, even if running away looks smarter.

And, as a bonus, Short Circuit.

Chances are, I'm going to have to do another list of 20+ soon. Click Here to view my original list of 20 of the most memorable 80's movies.
