Your Top 25 Favorite Movies from the 80's

Man, what a decade. This was probably one of the best years in cinematic history. New stars were introduced and new concepts and genres were also introduced. So, I would like you guys to list all your faves from the 80's. I composed this list and realized a few things. 4 of the movies on my list star Harrison Ford. Which is the most I noticed. Also, second is Eddie Murphy with 3 movies on my list. Also I noticed that 2 movies feature a certain color and 3 happen to be musicals. But the one that holds dear to my heart and the #1 slot is "Scarface". One of the best gangster movies of all time! Now take a look at my full list:

1. Scarface
2. Return Of The Jedi
3. Raiders Of The Lost Ark
4. Rocky 3
5. The Color Purple
6. Purple Rain
7. Top Gun
8. Silverado
9. Rain Man
10. Glory
11. Platoon
12. The Empire Strikes Back
13. Major League
14. E.T.
15. A Soldier's Story
16. Beverly Hills Cop
17. 48 Hrs.
18. Krush Groove
19. First Blood
20. Coming To America
21. Rag Time
22. Porky's
