Explorers
Adventures in Babysitting
Tron
License to Drive (even though it has the Coreys, this one should count)
Better Off Dead
Starman

I seriously almost listed License to Drive but I had already disqualified myself. That is a good one.
Adventures in Babysitting was awesome.
Starman freaked me out for some reason.

Another I forgot was Mannequin.
I still can't walk by a mannequin without getting a boner.

Weird Science was another but probably too well known.

I hope this isn't forgotten.

Rob Reiner film.

A total classic.

It's a loosly modern riff on It Happened One Night.

This movie started an arms race of bicycles of all the kids in my neighborhood. Mongoose, Redline and maybe one other brand were the big dogs we were after.

I recall Mongoose, Redline, GT, Diamondback
