Ruthless People was great! Definitely one of Danny DeVito's funniest parts ever.
 
Robin and Marian. Wonderful movie about an aged Robin Hood played by Sean Connery. Audrey Hepburn and Robert Shaw are also in it.
Long Gone. HBO movie with William Petersen. Similar to to Bull Durham but better.
Swashbuckler. Pirate movie with Robert Shaw.
Everybody’s All-American. Dennis Quaid plays a college football star. Great flick.

I'm sorry. As a kid, I loved Billy Jack. I thought it was the best movie ever made.

When I saw it coming on TV one night, I told my wife how good it was and we sat down excitedly to watch it. Eight-year-old me apparently only saw the karate scenes. The story is agonizingly slow, and the acting horrifically bad. It will always have a nostalgic place in my memory, but I'll never put myself through the pain of watching it again.
 
Mall rats has been mentioned, so I’ll go with major payne. Just hilarious back in the day.

I understand. It has the same nostalgia value for me.

I didn’t see listed, but maybe too well known is the the fantastic They Live.

Roddy Piper with the iconic line of “I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass…and I'm all out of bubblegum." will live on forever.

Plus, the wrestling scene with Piper and Frank to just get his friend Frank to try on the special seeing classes was maybe one of the best I have ever seen. Suplex for the win

“Waiting”. I stumbled on this one night on cable and it was hilarious.

Probably more of a documentary, but Free Solo was awesome.

I watched the movie about a billion times around the time it was released.
 
The Idolmaker with Ray Sharkey. When Elvis was away while in the Army, he tried to create the next big sensation in the music world. He is fabulous in the role. He was also great as Sonny Steelgrave in the Wiseguy TV series.

Awesome. A guy I used to work with was in that movie. He was one of the pros on the starting line at the end.
