2. "Trading Places" 5 (back when Eddie was funny)
3. "Valley Girl" 5 (my first time going all googly over Nicholas Cage)

6. "UHF" 1 (I really wanted to like this one, but Michael Richards made it even worse)
7. "Pretty In Pink" 4 (Jon Cryer and Annie Potts saved this movie IMO)
8. "The Funhouse" 2.5 (I'm a sucker for all horror flicks, even though most are just cheeseball)

11. "License To Drive" 1 (ugh)
12. "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" 5 (claaaaaaaasic!)
13. "Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome" 1 (even Tina Turner and Master Blaster couldn't save this one)
14. "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" 5 (ahhh...the one that started the trend)
15.  "Bill & Ted's Excellant Adventure" 4 (purely based on Keanu Reeves :::sigh:::)
16. "Risky Business" 3 (watched it for the support cast)
17. "Just One Of The Guys" 1 (teen Yentyl-esque comedy...ack)
18. "True Stories" 4 (John Goodman was great, David Byrne was adorable)
19. "Gremlins" 4 (great concept)
