Cloak and Dagger.
Cheesy in a bunch of spots, but a classic. Loved that movie and recently bought it used at a Blockbuster video that was going out of business for 99 cents. I am whole once again.

Time Bandits was probably my most watched film as a kid and it more than holds up today. The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie is easily my favourite Warner Bros movie, I wore the tape out re-watching this one over and over. Venus Wars was my first exposure to anime about age 8, it's not the best the genre has to offer, but it's still an entertaining watch. Highlander really captured my imagination when I first saw it and it remained a top favourite of mine for years. And although Hawk the Slayer is admitedly awful, I enjoyed it as a kid and now i'm older it's got that 'so bad it's good' factor working in it's favour

To this day it is my favorite comedy of all time. Ghostbusters comes close.

Well that'll be mostly the 70's for me, so Star Wars IV, Jaws, Alien, Blazing Saddles, Life of Brian, Superman. All that good stuff. I was 14 when The Empire Strikes Back came out (1980), so I reckon I can just about get away with that one.

Looks like a lot of the good ones are mentioned. I'll add Stand by Me, Robocop (albeit edited for safe evening TV broadcast at the time) and Coming to America (also edited now that I think about it).
I'm 21, and a total child of the 90's, so mine are a bit more recent.
Completely agree. I'll also add:
Personally I feel Titan AE is almost at The Iron Giant level of underrated. Granted it's got a bit more of a "You can tell this was a product of the 90's" feel to it, but the animation is astounding and the story is great
Oh, just remembered:

Yup, she's ridiculously sexy in this film. I can't believe she became a hardcore Christian preacher, well I guess I can considering what she went through... but still.
I was born in the late 80s so this film really wasn't a part of my era, but it was a part of my brother's and he made sure that I grew up alongside this film :lol
Gotta love the soundtrack too.
Don't know about RZA remaking the film, but then again, his projects never seem to come to fruition so there's probably nothing to worry about.
