1987-1988 Movies

In contrast to the movies from 1989, I've only seen 3 of the top ten highest-grossing films of 1988, and 8 movies total from 88. And I've only seen 1 of the top 10 from 1987, and 6 total.

The Princess Bride is another one of my all time favorite movies. So many great quotes!

Buttercup: "Westley, what about the R.O.U.S.'s?"
Westley: "Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist."

Vizzini: "He didn’t fall?! Inconceivable!"
Inigo Montoya: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

The Impressive Clergyman: "Mawage. Mawage is wot bwings us togeder tooday. Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam… And wuv, tru wuv, will fowow you foweva… So tweasure your wuv."

Inigo Montoya: "Hello! My name is Inigo Montoya! You killed my father! Prepare to die!"
Count Rugen: "Stop saying that!"

Inigo Montoya: "HELLO! MY NAME IS INIGO MONTOYA! YOU KILLED MY FATHER! PREPARE TO DIE!"

Favorite Movies of 1987-88 (definitely re-watchable):
1. The Princess Bride (87)
2. Rain Man (88)
3. Die Hard (88)
4. Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (87)

Good-Decent Movies of 1987-88 (might re-watch):
5. Lethal Weapon (87)
6. Dirty Dancing (87)
7. Stand and Deliver (88)
8. Raising Arizona (87)
9. The Land Before Time (88)

Meh (Probably wouldn't choose to re-watch):
10. Big (88)
11. Oliver and Company (88)

Not worth the money/time (definitely don't want to re-watch):
12. The Lost Boys (87)
13. Ernest Saves Christmas (88)
14. A Fish Called Wanda (88)
15. Poltergeist III (88) - again, Jennifer doesn't do scary/horror movies! I was coerced into watching this movie along with the first two Poltergeist movies as a movie marathon in the dorm room in college. You know who you are... ;-)
