Mine would be Stand By me. That is just a fantastic movie. The Goonies was good too, and Spaceballs will always be a strong runner up.
But Stand By Me will always have a special place in my heart.

Blood Sport
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Star Wars
The Last Starfighter
Spaceballs
Hackers
Porkys
I almost forgot one the greatest and don't ask me why I like it

I can't think of another movie It was one about basic training in the marines and one of the characters blew his brain out ... anyone?

Damnit, I meant favorite movie, not movies.
I'll let it slide this time.

Either hackers, blood sport, or Teenage mutant ninja turtles
Though awhile back I seen teenage mutant ninja turtles again and I thought it was incredibly dorky.

Star Wars. And as much as I hate to admit it, in my prepubecent, but damned near there era, Grease. Who was that blonde bombshell?

War Games
The main character seemed to have a funny walk though.
btw, the one where the guy blew his brains out was full metal jacket.

Since Star Wars has been beat to death, I'll go with my #2:
Akira Kurosawa's Ran.
I'll never forget when I saw this movie 15 years ago. Hands down best battle scene in a movie. No CGI's just 100's of extras fighting with samurai swords and polearms with a music score amps the adrenaline. Braveheart on Japanese steroids.

PrairieMule with the best avatar has an interesting tagline too: "A Mule will labor patiently and dilligently for 10 years for the privlidge of Kicking you once"-William Faukner. I had a near-death experience as a kid walking behind a horse inappropriately named 'Saint'. Saint let go with both shoed hooves at me as I ignorantly walked behind him (about 8 years old). I put up my hands in defense and caught each hoof, one on each hand. Stung for days. Could have smashed my face in. Oh, favorite movies: The Great Escape
