    Truly bad films can be awesome but the bottom line is entertainment. If it makes you laugh then its a good movie.

    Not an 80's film but for a truly bad but entertaining movie watch Mars Attack with Jack Nicholson, Danny DeVito, Glenn Close, Martin Short, Michael J. Fox, Sarah Jessica Parker, Pierce Brosnan, Natalie Portman, James Earl Ray, Tom Jones and other big names.

    Good one, but not as clever a 80's space spoof as The Ice Pirates. John Matuzak was actually good in it.

    Did you mean Jones?

    Pretty sure you must have, I don't remember any assassins in that movie

    And I can tell you, @LaSalleAve and @LSUMASTERMIND aint about to let that fly as a Freudian slip either :D

    Seriously though....James Earl was killed off so fast I don't think he's even credited.

    I also loved Vacation, and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

    My teenager enjoys Can't Buy Me Love with Patrick Dempsey from 1987 (she's also binge-watched Grey's Anatomy on Netflix, so she loves her some "McDreamy.")

    Another great teen flick was Say Anything.
