I love ALL of those movies, but I wouldn't put all of them in the cheesy category. Pretty in Pink, Goonies and Breakfast Club are some of my fave movies of all times. Maybe just a little cheesy in retrospect. But when they came out they were like landmark films for me. Course, I was only 11, but still.

I'd say Can't Buy Me Love, Mannequin, License to Drive, Short Circuit, and any movie other than the Back to the Future trilogy starring Michael J Fox.

How can you forget Real Genius and The Princess Bride? No other two movies have put out more one-liners than any other 80's movies combined.

RG- What is that?-A penis pump; wanna try it?
Have you ever seen a body like this before in your life?-Thats my daughter- Oh, then I guess you have.

TPB- Is he dead?-No, only mostly dead
It would be such a shame to do that seeing as how there is a shortage of perfect breasts
