Probably Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Although The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi are very consuming of my time to this very day.

If you grew up in the 80's like me,without a doubt it is The Breakfast Club.

My ex ex sis in law and I were watching The Outsiders one day.  Got in on the middle of it and didn't know the title.  Her then husband came in and said What are you watching?  We replied that we didn't know.  He said How can you watch something when you don't even know what your watching?  UMmmm Patrick Swazie, Tom Cruise, Matt Dillion, Emillio Estavez..... Who needs to know the name?

I guess one (three actually, if you count the whole Trilogy) would be semi obvious!

A few others:

Ferris Bueller
Naked Gun
Home Alone (pushing it, this was 1989/90 I think)
Uncle Buck
Airplane
16 Candles
Planes, Trains & Automobiles
The Jerk (okay, '79, I cheated again! But it is Steve Martin, a big 80's star) ;)
Ghostbusters I and II
Ernest....Goes to Camp & Saves Christmas (Goes to Jail & Scared Stupid were early 90's)
Police Academy 3-6 (never was as crazy about 1 or 2. Yes, feel free to shoot me, hehe!)

Sorry...that was '90. Therefore it should not be listed here.

BACK TO THE FUTURE
To this day, still the coolest Sci-fi/comedy movie.
