Airplane had one of the funniest gags ever .. the part where that lady couldn't calm down, so the passengers and crew took turns shaking and slapping her. In the sequel, she was on the witness stand recalling the events, and got so shook up over it, the lawyers and court people took turns shaking and slapping her ;D
As for my fave 10? To compile a list like this would be too long, but I know one thing .. the 1984 film 'Streets of Fire' is to me the greatest movie of the 80s 8)

Halloween 2

Phenomena
Teen Witch

um...um....um....i like the 80's much, much more for music than for movies. i love to watch crappy 80's horror movies, but most of them aren't actually all that great. and i seem to be one of the only people who don't like the brat pack movies, 'Fast Times At Ridgemont High' (don't understand the popularity at all), 'Risky Business', 'Footloose', 'Purple Rain' (though I like the soundtrack), 'Flashdance', etc. all that much. i've watched all these movies and other popular 80's films, and either i thought they were just okay, or i didn't like them.
