Your Favorite Year In Film

Without a doubt, easily

The Goonies
The Breakfast Club
Weird Science
Back to the Future
Desperately Seeking Susan
Ladyhawke
The Boy Who Could Fly
St. Elmo's Fire
Better Off Dead
My Science Project

and this is just me naming movies from 1985 that I own!

Others I'm yet to own from that year that I must add to my collection:

Brewster's Millions
Day of the Dead

Anyway, you get the idea

1984 and 1986 come a very close and equal second. I won't name the movies from those years, or I'll start wanting list every movie from the 80s. Maybe I need to go find the favourite decade thread
