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?

Not a film (I think everyone's mentioned them all!), but we love watching Friends. Over an over again.. They early ones are a real insight into the late 90's..

10 Things I hate about you
Clueless
Back to The future trilogy
Grease (I know it’s technically 70s)
Save the Last Dance (technically early 00s)
Adventures in Babysitting
Point Break
Speed

Nightmare on elm street
carrie
pet cemetery
lost boys
jaws
gremlins
the never ending story
bedknobs and broomsticks

Yes! Endless Marvel films and the 11-billionth iteration of Spiderman

Back to the Future
The Karate Kid
Flashdance
Footloose
Raiders of the Lost Ark

Oh yes! Is that the one that begins with the sperm racing to the egg?!

Short circuit
Karate Kid (the original obvs)

Pretty Woman!

That reminds me of another one Inner Space

Honey I shrunk the kids

Good shout!

It has a positive ending!

Oh I loved Karate Kid. Also fancied Ralph Macchio. He has aged well too, as looked him up a few years ago! There is a newer version with Jayden Smith.

Mr Miyagi " wax on, wax off" 😍

Our teens (16 and 14) love a family movie night, although they may not want to watch Basic Instinct with their parents 😆

Stand By Me
STRICTLY BALLROOM!!!

Groundhog Day? Not a teen film, I suppose.

It’s your job to embarrass them!

Great shout!

Great thread @DoubtfulCat - going to write the suggestions from this thread including the ones dragged from the depths of my memory.

Made mine watch Pretty in Pink, which she though was terrible. Flight of the Navigator, The Lost Boys and Ferris Bueller were appreciated.

Oh, no thanks, not in this cringy awkward way - they will never trust us to watch films with them again!

My teen DD loved, Stop or my Mom will shoot!
Is she mature enough for the teen horror films, sleepaway camp?
Harry and the Henderson's, Footloose hasn't been mentioned. My DD liked War of the roses, after watching Jewel of the Nile.

Desperately Seeking Susan

Ghost. I watched it again the other day and it’s aged really well
