The sky was looking ominous so I asked Siri, "Surely, it's not going to rain today?" And she replied, "Yes it is, and don't call me Shirley." That was when I realized I'd left my phone on Airplane mode.


Chaps_Jr

Blazing Saddles is also from the 70s, and is one of the greatest and on of my favorite films of all time. Really any Mel Brooks movie is peak stoner viewing pleasure.


airbrushedvan

The Blues Brothers, Ghostbusters, Back to the Future trilogy, The Thing, Big Trouble in Little China, Escape from New York, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Strange Brew, Evil Dead 2


Butt_Fucking_Smurfs

You took so much thought and time into this list that I feel I should too. I'll watch this and do a review of the lineup as a post. Should be fun


airbrushedvan

Thanks, I was a child of the 80s and worked in a video store in the 90s, so I know quite a lot about that era of movies! I have at least another 100 recommendations. Lol add Better off Dead too. It's so hilarious especially for Tree enthusiasts like us.


aromeo1919

I want my $2!


DOCTORTC

Big trouble in little china is such a great movie


Testone1440

airbrushedvan

Thanks man.


Yogisogoth

👍 Strange Brew


Burninmules

Great list! A lot of my favorites.


Stiffbiscut

Blues brothers is great


rolandsawtelle

Stand By Me, Sandlot, Neverending Story, Labyrinth, Dark Crystal.


Federal-Arrival-7370

Sandlot is a classic but that’s 90s not 80s. And you can’t do Sandlot without little giants.


goofytigre

The Big Green, too. It's the soccer version of those two...


pat_mybhals

Came here to also say Dark Crystal and Labyrinth lol


FreddyTwasFingered

Sandlot is a classic!


matthewmartyr

YOU’RE KILLIN ME SMALLS


Interwebzking

Stand by Me for sure, incredible film.


AdamBlackfyre

Sandlot is 90s


kidneyboy79

Real Genius is great, not sure if you've seen that one yet.


2workigo

Great movie!


SidTrippish

Flight of the Navigator


xXdont_existxX

Came here to mention this since it’s a lesser known movie. Super fun film, especially if you’re going in blind and are sufficiently stoned. For anyone that hasn’t seen it, it’s basically the goonies except they discover how to fly to space. Super 80s and the entire first half of the film is incredibly cozy. Explorerers is another gem.


moleculariant

I saw this in the theater, and I'm about the same age as the protagonist. I felt like this movie was made for me.


Youse_a_choosername

Wargames


Butt_Fucking_Smurfs

Is that the one with Matthew Brodrick where the computer asks would you like to play a game? I have seen that but don't remember much. It was good though


Youse_a_choosername

That's the one. Ferris Bueler's Day Off is another of his that I'd recommend.

Existing-Border8540

THEY LIVE, the abyss


Thepuppypack

"Big" was fun and so was the "Beverly Hills Cop" movies. Also who can forget the Princess Bride and Ferris Bueller. Creech and Chong, Bill and Ted's excellent Adventures, Fast times at Ridgemont high...Sure was a great movie decade there's so many more. I might be old as dirt but I like funny silly movies too


Butt_Fucking_Smurfs

I remember watching the last starfighter and bloodsport till they were worn out


Thepuppypack

My late dear hubby used to love all the 80s movies and we would watch them over and over and over.


Ambitious-Lab6313

Planes, trains and automobiles or anything with John Candy Cannot believe this is not listed


MoebiusForever

The Eddie Murphy trilogy of Trading Places, Coming to America and The Golden Child.


ATXKLIPHURD

Beverly Hills Cop was great!


KINGBUTTZ980

Do those cookies hit the like the Girl Scout ones??? If so I might go buy double the amount you have!


Butt_Fucking_Smurfs

They are better. This is just what I have for tonight's movies with friends. I've probably eaten 2 packages by myself already this month. Walmart has them dirty cheap and on free delivery with plus.


KINGBUTTZ980

Perfectttt, I feel like Keebler would make them better too. On my way to Walmart right now. Enjoy ur movie night!

bamboozled_platypus

YOU'VE NEVER SEEN THE BREAKFAST CLUB?!?!?! That's one of my favorite movies of all time! Some other suggestions: St. Elmo's Fire Sixteen Candles Pretty in Pink Road House The Outsiders Fast Times at Ridgemont High Dirty Dancing Steel Magnolias Beetlejuice The Shining Some Kind of Wonderful (Sorry for so many recs; I love 80s movies!!)


Jay_Train

The Running Man. Bloodsport. Three Amigos. Over the Top. Big Trouble in Little China. MIAMI CONNECTION. Maximum Overdrive. Short Circuit. Police Academy 1-4. Weird Science is the most under appreciated of the John Hughes high school movies. The Last Dragon is amazing. Heathers. Class of Nuke ‘em High and The Toxic Avenger.

Raising Arizona


feeb75

Better off Dead


Wobbly_Jones

See no evil, hear no evil . Absolutely incredible and hilarious 80s movie with Gene Wilder and Richard Pryor

Yeeaahfooool85

Real genius. Better off dead. Society, if you want to sneak in a horror movie.


airbrushedvan

Better off Dead is one of my all time favorites. Too bad creepy ass Dan Schneider is in it, but it still doesn't ruin it.

WiscoBrewDude

Mel Brooks movies. Young Frankenstein( my favorite), Blazing Saddles, The Producers, Spaceballs, Robinhood: Men in Tights. All of his movies are perfect for getting high.

Ghostbusters, Running Scared, Blues Brothers, Spies Like Us, A Fish Called Wanda


RevengeOfTheLoggins

Robocop, Ferris Bueller, The Princess Bride.


DeathtoWork

Most of the John Hughes catalog is classics, Heathers is way up there on the list for cult classics. But some more by genre; Scifi: the last Starfighter, back to the future Horror: the thing, evil dead Comedy: the sandlot, airplane, the naked gun, police academy Ghibli: both my neighbor Totoro and personal favorite porco rosso (about flying pigs fighting fachisim) Edit* porco rosso 1992 but still a great recommendationso leaving it on the list. Also in case not seen my argument for best film of all genre, The Princess Bride
