The 80's was the best decade for movies ever, there are so many good ones I could make a list of at least 100 to 200 that are some of my all time favorites. If I had to narrow it down to only one or a few it would be:
Aliens
Empire Strikes Back
Back to the Future
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Blade Runner
I was never a big fan of E.T., I liked it but didn't love it. After being a blown away 4 year old after seeing Star Wars, E.T. was a let down. Cute, fun story but kind of whimpy, I will still watch it today for nostalgia value (everything in it looks and reminds me of being a kid during that time period) but I think it's one of the more over rated movies from the 80's.
My guilty pleasure movies are:
The Last Starfighter
Krull
Clash of the Titans
The Monster Squad
The Thing
Risky Business
One movie I absolutely can't stand from the 80's is When Harry Met Sally. -
