So I was talking with Hanguk just now and we were chatting about movies from your teenage years that you could watch over and over again at any given time.
Here's the rules, you can pick only five, they have to have come out in your teenage years, meaning 13-19. Doesn't matter if they came out earlier and you watched 'em over and over again in your teenage years.
I was born in 1980 so my movies came out from 93-99.
1) Happy Gilmore
2) Tommy Boy
3) Dumb and Dumber
4) Office Space
5) Billy Madison
Thoughts?

I'll add Old School to that list, and maybe American Pie.

hmm, teenage eh..
well i'l start from the beginning cuz i know you all wanna know.
1st it starts off in the 80's. i was a young lad, and can remember in detail
- Flight of the Navigator.
Then, i remember
- The Goonies and Adventures in baby sitting.
But the string of quality movies would end my friends. as the next solid memory was
- Friday the 13th part 1 - 5.
dear god what was wrong with my parents, or society in general during this era.
so after not sleeping from age 6 to 10, i then recall
- The wizard, which molded my life into existance. "Ninja Gaiden"
That then brings me back in time to a few classics that i didnt get to watch in theatres at a young age, but grew to love like
- back to the future I, II and III
- teen wolf
- cocktails
- top gun
- star wars
and many more...
perhaps the turning point into my future was that i can remember actually enjoying
Bill and Teds, excellent adventures, as well as bogus journey
as puberty rounded the corner, i found myself to enjoy many new comedies.
The use of illegal drugs at a young age sparked this(back to the stupidity of bill and ted's), with great comedies following the Adam sandler cassette tapes, as in
airheads,
billy maddison, etc..
Old school paved the way to a strong adult hood, as did american pie. (which i still think was the funniest movie i ever saw in theatres)
good luck, and god speed

Such great memories, that movie was remarkable. I suspect it is the main reason why I am now a grad student studying physics.
For some reason this movie and D.A.R.Y.L. are seared together in my memory. I don't remember it well, but I suspect I really liked it.

Star Wars
Indiana Jones
Back to the Future
The Goonies
Stand by Me
The Princess Bride
Funny Farm
Mystery Date
Dream Machine
The Last Starfighter
and....
Pump up the Volume.
Out of all these movies I only saw Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade in the theatre, and I was probably like 13 or 14 when that came out.

Steve,
It doesn't matter who you start because you have a horse shoe up your ass so far I'm not really sure how you get through the day. You must be gay.

my teenage years would be 95-01, so...
Boogie Nights- still my favorite movie of all time
Point Break- came out earlier than 95, but this is the movie i probably watched the most times in this time period
the rest of the movies that i rewatched incessantly as a teen are from the 80's (big trouble in little china, beverly hills cop, the lost boys)
