A lot of great ones listed here. More to remember:
1. California Dreaming-Dennis Christopher stars as a midwesterner who moves to California to immerse himself into the sun and surf culture. Kind of a dramady. Has some poignant moments. Also stars Glynnis O'Connor as the object of his affections, a pre-Charlie's Angel Tanya Roberts and one of the Van Patten brothers.
2. Roller Boogie-Linda Blair as a rich beach girl who enters into a, what else?, roller boogie dance contest. Kimberly Beck is her much hotter best friend.
3. Thank God It's Friday-A night at the disco with Terri Nunn, later in the music group Berlin. Also stars Donna Summer and the Commodores in cameos.
4. Girls Just Want To Have Fun-Another dance related movie starring a great cast of Sarah Jessica Parker, Shannon Doherty and Helen Hunt. As with the above 2 movies, she wants to win a dance contest.
5. Can't Buy Me Love- Patrick Dempsey buys the affections of the hottest girl in town, Amanda Peterson, who died recently after falling on hard times. Patrick fared better in later life I'd say.
6. Career Opportunities-Frank Whaley works all night at Target and comes across Jennifer Connelly hiding in the store. Jen is quite young here and drop-dead gorgeous. Anybody remember her in her tight white tank top riding the mechanical horse?

Great memories of some not so great, but fun, movies.
