Do you plan to post your own list?

Imdb puts "Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade" down as 1989. Did you make it later than that?

Movies not mentioned here that I love:
Shirley Valentine
Gremlins
Time Bandits
Flight Of The Navigator
Gandhi
Fitzcarraldo
Das Boot
An American Werewolf In London
The Thing
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Castle In The Sky
Robocop
Ghostbusters
The Neverending Story
The Terminator
This Is Spinal Tap
Videodrome
Star Trek II: Wrath Of Khan
Evil Dead 2
Return Of The Living Dead
Fright Night
Re-Animator
The Fly
The Hitcher
Aliens
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Innerspace
Masters Of The Universe
They Live
The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen
Die Hard
UHF (The Weird Al Yancovich movie)

But yeah, choosing just 10 is always awkward.

(BTW I nabbed this list of titles from an old post of mine here: http://fatpie42.livejournal.com/84444.html )

There are a good number of movies from the 1980s that I really like, including INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE. However . . . the ones that I listed are my top ten favorite.

You seem to be in the possession of some excellent taste :)

Places in the Heart is one of my all time favorite movies.
