And The Breakfast Club, and Top Gun, and Only You (one of my favorite romcoms), and Crazy Stupid Love, and Legally Blonde! And and and… We watched Back To The Future at Christmas and it’s aged a little… my son’s girlfriend had never seen it (24) and we kept on telling her « now it’s going to be funny »!! And she waited and waited 😂😂

Oh I LOVE Only You!!! Top Gun and Legally Blond are also on my list. And I must confess, I still find Back to the Future hilarious, even tho I can see the frayed seams 😂😂😂

Aw, I loved reading this list! It brought back so many fond memories. 😊 I'l add Kindergarten Cop to the 80s/90s nostalgia list. And fun fact: it was filmed in the same town as The Goonies (Astoria, Oregon, where I used to live)!

I sure did! It's every bit as magical as it seems in the movie.

In Japan, the summer movie tradition is to give yourself the chills by going to the cinema to watch horror movies -- useful in the brutal heat!

Oh I love that tradition!! It makes sense and it unites fun and practicality. I've considered going to the movies sometimes just because of the heat 😂
