    You forgot the most poignot one of them all:

    Lucas (1986) - Corey Haim, Charlie Sheen and Kerri Green.

    This is the definitive coming-of-age/teen movie for Generation X (next to Ferris Bueller's Day Off) because it isn't a typical "popular kids vs. outcast" story.

    It is more realistic portrayl of suburban high school life and what it is really like in there are different cliques that exist in high school, but realistically, a lot of kids can go from one group to another and not have to be just one thing... But there is always that one group that each one aspires to be because they feel it will make them better than they already are like Lucas' character.

    There is a lot of coming of age / teen movies that I absolutely love. My most favorites are:
    The Breakfast Club
    Sixteen Candles
    Ferris Buellers Day Off
    10 Things I Hate About You
    Bring It On
    Empire Records
    Clueless
    Cruel Intentions

    any many many more........There are just too many and they pretty much have all been named already.

    Oh I agree, I hated how he just fall in love with her sister like that. I love the story Dani's mom told about how she was just as young as Dani was and her father was older like Court and they fall in love.

    Now and Then. I must've watched it 2963552 times when I was a teen. I always found the fact that you grew up to be bittersweet. So when they're together, all grown up, that always stuck with me. Now that I'm older I realize that the girls getting back together was so sweet. Not everyone takes time off from their lives to revisit old friends from childhood.

    I loved that Chrissie was the pregnant one. She was always curious about sex. :lol:
