What films would you consider teen classics of the 80s and 90s and want to share with your teen?

[DoubtfulCat]

Dd is 15. i’m 48. We like watching films together — both her choices and mine. Of my list, that I enjoyed as a teen, we have watched:
Dirty Dancing
10 things I hate about you
Robin Hood Prince of thieves
Batman returns (with Michael Keaton and Michelle Pfeiffer)
Clueless
Legally Blonde
The Breakfast Club
Beetlejuice
Heathers
Back to the future

I’m sure there are more… but what would you add to this list?

Point Break
Speed.

What was that film called with 2 sets of twins that got swapped at birth and grew up with completely different lives? Not the Lindsay Lohan one. I think Bette Middler was one of the actresses 🤔

Rushmore.

Grease
st Elmo’s fire
breakfast club
Indiana jones
Ferris buellers day off
Ten things I hate about you
ever after

Grease
Dirty Dancing
Ghost
Seven
Big
Forest Gump

Films are crap now compared to then

Coyote Ugly
Bridesmaids
White Chicks
Cool Runnings

Kids now 18 and 15. Weve done a few over the years, always have a lil chat about how things have dated etc.
Stand by Me
Good Morning Vietnam
10 things I hate...
Heather's
Pump Up the Volume
True Romance
Dead Poet Society
Dogma
Bill and Ted
Austin Powers
Any and all John Candy
Blues Brothers

Back to the future

Lost boys

The Truman show

Oh yes, second Big and Parenthood

Beverley Hills Cop is ace

Apollo 13

Flipper (a bit younger but I loved dolphins!)
Speed
Mission Impossible
Men in Black
Miss Congeniality
Never been kissed
Legally Blonde
10 things I hate about you
Bridget Jones (think a little later, but still roughly that time)
Happy Gilmore
Forest Gump

Ace Ventura

Yes, to Mission Impossible I (the second is unnecessary pervy).

All the Jason Bournes (they blur into one)

Apparently it was called Big Business!

Another vote for Beverley Hills Cop. Loved Eddie Murphy.

Also, Rush Hour.

I think the older and newer version were both called Parent Trap?

Withnail and I
Heathers
Clueless
Mean Girls
Freaky Friday

Parenthood
Overboard
Housesitter
National Lampoon’s Vacation

Ah yes, the one I was thinking of was much older!

Oh also True Lies, Kindergarten cop and The Last Action Hero.

Has anyone watched Bad Boys, Twins or Three Men and a Baby in the last few years? Haven’t seen them for decades so not sure what they are like now but loved them back in the day.

We enjoyed Terminator again recently

Also loved Arnold Schwartzenegger (sp)!

All the Rocky films (but not Rambo), as loved Sylvester Stallone. Not sure they would translate well into the current day and age though 🤔

My teens watch loads of movies with me. Me and DS are working our way through the Scream movies. At this very moment, we're watching Scream 6

I watched Twins. Will have to watch 3 men and a baby again now!

Another one is the Kirstie Alley and John Travolta films: "Look who's talking".
