80’s and 90’s film recommendations

[Iloveautumncolours]

I turned 50 a month ago and have decided to relive my youth by watching all the old films that I once loved (and those I haven’t yet seen).
I am thinking easy watching/cheesy/fun and uplifting films like Ferris Bueller’s day off, Pretty in Pink, The Breakfast Club, Pretty Woman etc.
If you have any recommendations of films you loved back then and probably ones that I have long forgotten, I will happily track down and watch over the next year.

Point Break
The Sandlot Kids
Now and Then
Mermaids

I watched Short Circuit recently, and I’m old friends with The Goonies. Just good stories. Everything seems derivative, formulaic, or looking for reactions nowadays.

Some kind of wonderful- great film

Steel Magnolias

Reality Bites, Singles, High Fidelity, Wayne's World, Romy and Michele's High School Reunion

Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Beverley Hills Cop
Police Academy
Fatal Attraction
St Elmo's Fire
The Breakfast Club
Risky Business

Beaches
Top Gun

@DappledThings it’s mine too!

"You're not broken. Just badly sprained."

'Is it as big as a baby's arm?' 😂😂😂😂

Overboard

I'd never seen The Goonies so thought I'd rectify that over Christmas when it was on. OMG what a pile of tripe - annoying brats shouting at each other at full volume non-stop. I lasted an hour and decided I'd been very wise to have avoided it in the first place. I thought I was gonna love it!

@DappledThings my favourite is Marcella describing her 10 year reunion. “It’s like everyone had swelled.”
