Top 10 1980s teen movies

Take a computer with the power of my cell phone, a modem, and you can create a woman. Things like that only happened in 1980s movie. But there's a theme that take a computer, and you can do anything. Check out a hot Kelly LeBrock (no bigger than a mouthful) and a very young and stoned IronMan. It's a geek versus cool kid movie, and the geeks steal their girls. Very appropriate.

A common theme of unrequited love took place in the 1980's. This one was definitely the wackiest, and had some of the funniest a and quotable lines. I remember seeing that trailer in the theatre and how the audience roared with the line, "Throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that."

A group of friends rallying to save their houses. 2 sets of bad guys, a one eyed pirate, a hot teen girl, and you have your perfect teen adventure movie.

No need to comment on this one.

Skipping school, Cubs game, talking to the camera, taking advantage of the principal, what better movie could there be?

Lucaplakia! Corey Haim before the drugs, Charlie Sheen before the sex addiction, Wynona Ryder before her kleptomania, Jeremy Piven before the hair implants and the beautiful at the time Kerri Green. Great movie. It's for the nerd in all of us.

Great movie. A perfect coming of age movie set in the 50's with a great 50's soundtrack. This is probably River Phoenix's best performance. Such a tragic loss. Just be careful watching with your kids. The language is definitely harsher than I remembered.

Original title was Boy Rents Girl. However, Can't Buy Me Love already had a song written for it. I really liked this movie and identified with Ronald Miller. Paula Abdul was the choreographer for the African Ant Eater Ritual.

Stoner, Scalper, Slut, brother and sister, and a nerd. It's one of my top 10 movies of all time.

No Karate Kid?

Karate Kid was the best of 1984. This was initially supposed to be a list of comedies, but I got confused and just kept it.
