My Blue Heaven - Steve Martin
What About Bob? - Bill Murray (I know it was 1990 or so but it was hilarious!)

OMG...my shelves are filled with movies from that time and my mind is drawing a blank...how annoying.

I did love Dirty, Rotten Scoundrels and Real Genius AND Joe Vs. The Volcano - I have no response to that.

pphhhhahahahahhaha! I used to say that all the time! "I have no response to that." Man, you just made me giggle like a fool remembering that.

For those of you who quote all those awesome, underrated 80s movies, do you just love it when someone doesn't get what you're quoting? Cracks me up every time.

Surely you can't be serious. I am serious...and don't call me Shirley.

YES, YES, YES...I do love it! And I find myself quoting them frequently...

When I was younger, I used to watch older movies (my parents' movies) and always enjoyed them. As I got older, and still now, I watch all kinds of movies. What's funny to me is when younger people look at me and wonder why the heck I'm giggling and I'll say "haven't you ever seen...fill in the blank?" and they say "huh?"

That's akin to me saying "who said frankly my dear, I don't give a damn"...I'm sure I'd be ridiculed...

Ahh...love me some 80's movies though...yippee kayay, melon farmer (one of my favorite fill-ins for the naughty words..hehe)

Haha. Awesome. My wife and I bust out that line all the time. We actually use a lot of dialogue from JVTV in our everyday life.

When someone is talking about anything to do with employment, we use "I know he can get the job, but can he do the job?"

If someone helps me out, I occasionally say "may you live to be a thousand years old, sir."

My mom and dad recently said "so you got no clothes" to me when I was showing them some baby stuff we received.

I wouldn't say a lot of the movies being listed are underrated or under the radar. Movies like Stripes, Pee Wee, Nerds, etc. are pretty well known.

How about My Science Project? (My Science Project (1985) - IMDb) Dennis Hopper ruled.

I don't believe in posting clips in forums, but I think possibly the funniest joke is then short bit asking the dog for a screwdriver.
