Top Secret was a favorite of mine. I watched it last week and it was horrible with the exception of a few scenes.

Monster Squad
Several Van Damme movies

On the other hand, some movies that I liked as a kid and actually like better as an adult are:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, First Blood, Karate Kid, Young Guns, and Top Gun.

I actually refuse to watch this movie as an adult for exactly this reason. I don't want to ruin my memories.

Not a movie but a TV series: Land of the Lost

I watched them when Syfy was showing them non-stop and it was everything I could do to watch 10 minutes. As a kid this was the show, but now, I just don't know what I was thinking.

The original? I still love that movie & make my kids watch it sometimes. (Granted Ken Berry & Sandy Duncan are a bit much though!)

How about Escape to Witch Mountain(1975)/Return from Witch Mountain (1978)? The flying Winnebago was priceless!
