I grew up on cheesy 80s Sci Fi and Fantasy movies, so I have a few that I absolutely love:
Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone
Staring a young Molly Ringwald, and Michael Ironside as OverDog.
Beast Master
Blood of Heroes
Starring Rutger Hauer
Metalstorm: The Destruction of Jared-Syn
Krull
House and House 2 Ding Dong, you're dead
Steel Dawn
And probably a bunch more that I've forgotten. The 80s really were a great time for these kinds of movies that didn't take themselves too seriously.

Dragnet. Favorite Dan Aykroyd performance. Young Tom Hanks. Kathleen Freeman has a killer bit part too.

Came out in summer of 79', but ran on Skinamax during early 80's....

Not sure if it's forgotten, but I loved the Beastmaster. Would watch it every time and hope every time that something changed and the ferret wouldn't die

There are way too many. I keep seeing some of them occasionally on cable. The Wraith came on the other day and I had to watch it. Hot Pursuit with John Cusack came on last week.
Movies like RAD and Real Genius are hardly forgotten, though. Movies like Dreamscape and Dragonslayer never get talked about.

I loved this one and The Man with Two Brains as well, both done by Carl Reiner. You can't even order Man with Two Brains on Netflix.
Another favorite 80's comedy - Strange Brew.

Oh, and
Monty Python's Meaning of Life
This had some of the best stuff that Python ever did. It pushed comedy beyond a lot of people's comfort zones and had a mixed reception. But I watched it at least 5 times at the theater that used to be just north of the LSU campus, and thought it was fantastic. And still do.

Nighthawks was a damned good movie.
Definitely a different face for terrorists.

Going pirate only:
Savage Island aka Nate and Hayes (Tommy Lee Jones, Michael O’Keefe)
The Island (Michael Cain, David Warner)
The Pirate Movie
Guessing first two would hold up pretty well today. Last i remember to be pretty campy.
