Star Wars goes without saying... (my fav always will and has been Empire!)
1. The Outsiders.
Made me want to be a greaser... I had the pomp and everything in 6th grade.
2. The Last Star Fighter.
Such an awesome movie to waste time on.
3. Flight of the navigator.
I always loved ufos and robots!
4. Princess Bride.
"As You Wish"
5. The Legend Of Hell House.
I swear to god, this movie came out in 1973, and i spent many sun mornings watching this on public T.V.XHonusWagnerX - 11-26-2005 at 08:31 AM
Well I guess if I dont put any of the Star Wars movies in my top five this is what it would be. *Side Note: A New Hope was always my favorite.
1. The Muppet Movie - I love all the Muppet movies. Its actually hard to pick just one. I'll say 'The Muppet Movie', but 'The Great Muppet Caper' and
'Muppets Take Manhattan' are awesome too.
2. Space Camp - Come on... I mean, who didnt want to go to space camp as a kid and then they made a movie about it!? Bad ass!
3. Raiders of the Lost Ark - Again, its hard to pick just one out of the three. As an adult 'Last Crusade' is my favorite, but being a kid you just
couldnt beat the big guy getting his head chopped off by an airplane propeller and the nazi dudes face melting!
4. The Incredible Mr. Limpet - I still love this movie too, but I had a greater appreciation for it as a kid because it was only on TV once in a
while. It was the first Live action + cartoons in the same movie... Fuck Roger Rabbit!
5. The Cannonball Run - Cars, Boobs, Dom DeLuise as a super hero, Dean Martin & Sammy Davis Jr. as drunk priests in a Ferrari and so many silly
cameos.... to this day still an all around great movie!RomanticViolence - 11-26-2005 at 11:38 AM
1. Cat's eye (stephen king)
2. The Chipmunk Adventure
3. The Goonies
4. The Dark Crystal
5. A Christmas Story
Spaceballs was awesome too!XnMeX - 11-26-2005 at 12:31 PM
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Back to the future 2
Surf Ninjas
Goonies
ace ventura: Pet Detective
In no particular order.XHonusWagnerX - 11-26-2005 at 12:46 PM
Damn so many good choices....
Goonies is a great movie, plus Andie was hot.
Christmas Story is a classic!
I also forgot about Back to the Beach. Frankie & Annette, Dick Dale, Pee Wee & fucking Fishbone! How can you go wrong with that cast!! Plus the M.O.D.
Surfin' M.O.D. Record is like an unofficial soundtrack.
Ska ska ska.... Jamacia ska!Discipline - 11-26-2005 at 02:03 PM
Back To The Beach was fucking hilarious. I love that movie. I still have it on tape somewhere.Voodoobillyman - 11-26-2005 at 02:18 PM
Empire was and still is the best!!!!
1.Secret of Nimh, I had a crush on Mrs brisbee ( I know she was a cartoon, oh well)
2.Dark Crystal, Henson changed all the rules about puppetry in film with that one, it still amazes me to this day. I wanted to be a skexie.
3. Christmas story, how can this not be a favorite as a kid, they played it constantly.
4.Escape from New York, Snake Plisken was the coolest mofo on celluloid.
5. Road warrior, Mad Max was the second coolest mofo on celluloid. And Road warrior was by far the best of the three.Voodoobillyman - 11-26-2005 at 02:19 PM
But then theres Krull, Ghostbusters, Return of the living dead (scared the bejeezus out of me) I dont think I can keep going I will fill up 20

I think the reason these films ruled so much....
is because they could get away with just about naything, and they were all original as fuck...
no remakes, no tv sitcoms...
wait i'm bitching about movies again...
okay top 5...excluding star wars saga, (empire as tops)
1) tron, cheesey yes, but rad..I still want a lite bike, and best video game as well
2) blade runner
3) the thing...yes a remake but hella rad
4) the fog
5) anything that Elvira showed on her show in L.A. it was a friday and saturday night must see...Voodoobillyman - 11-27-2005 at 09:25 PM
