Scenes From Movies of the Eighties, Index

What was the most memorable scene from an eighties movie? Was it when the Blues Brothers make an impossible leap over the drawbridge, or was it when Bender in the Breakfast Club leads the group through the deserted school corridors while trying to avoid getting caught? Whatever the reason, whatever the scene, let me know and I'll share it with everyone else.

The scene at the end where Richard Gere's character, Zack Mayo walks into the factory where Paula works. He walks around the corner, cradles her in his arms and walks out of the factory.
White Water Summer
Alan, Chris, George,and Mitch were heading for the canoe to head home from their camping trip to get away from the trouble Vic was doing. Vic cut them off and told them you're not leaving. He chased Alan away from the canoe and the others followed them. Chris start beating Vic with a paddle and followed him to the cliff. George tried to stop Chris from doing more by getting the paddle from him and lost it. Chris threw a rock at Vic's face causing Vic to fall off the cliff and break his leg when he hit the bottom.
The scene where Steve Martin walks like himself on his right side and Lily Tomlin on his left (or vise versa, I vaguely remember).
(The) Untouchables
The train station scene where Elliot Ness (Kevin Costner) is waiting for Al Capone's accountant to show up so he can be arrested but a gun battle ensues between Ness and Capone's goons. Andy Garcia's character's underhanded toss of the pistol to Ness before saving the toddler always has me cheering inside!!
nine in a half weeks
Kim Bassinger was doing a sexy dance behind the blinds an the other scene was her and mikey rouke making love hot love
I'm totally mesmerized by the scene when John Bender mocks the all-sweet family life of Brian and then goes on to acting out his family life - "No, dad, what about you - f*** you!!!". then, after showing the gang the cigar burn on his arm, freaks out and struggles to sit upstairs in the library. Judd Nelson's absolute talent!
I love the scene when Bender falls down from the ceiling and detention teacher runs in and asks "What was that rukus?" and Anthony M. Hall responds "Can you describe the rukus, sir?" That makes me laugh every time.
When Gilbert comes through the lunch line and tells Louis he met a girl, Boger says,"Big deal, did you get in her pants?" And Gilbert replies,"She's not that kind of girl Booger." And he says,"Why, does she have a penis?".
The handicap Italian brother's name is Lotney "Sloth" Fratelli. Not Loff

When Marion is kiddnapped in Egypt and in the ensuing chase Indy is confronted by the sword master who shows off his move at which point Indy pulls out his gun shoots him and walks away.
When Claire is waiting for Blaine to pick her up and Iona turns on Try a little tenderness by Otis redding and Duckie lip synches it. I thought it was amazing.
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark
The part where Indiana is trying to escape from the Nazis, and the Indian swordsman does this elaborate routine with his sword to challenge Indiana Jones. Indiana just pauses for a moment, pulls out his gun, and shoots him.
When Randy is trying to win Julie back and keeps showing up everywhere she goes. At one point Randy is the ticket taker at a movie theater and is wearing 3-D glasses as a disguise. One of the guys in her group says "bitchin', is this in 3-D?" Randy pulls the cigarette out of his mouth, blows smoke at the guy and replies "no, but your face is." Also, when Julie and her friend are driving through Hollywood with Randy, her friend says "I'm not getting out of this car." Randy says "OK, but if they attack the car, save the radio."
Labyrinth
When Sarah (Jennifer Connelly) eats the poisonned fruit that Jareth (David Bowie) addressed her, she is transported to this great party where everybody is wearing masks and costumes reminding the Venice Carnival. While Sarah looks losts and confused in a great white dress, looking prettier than ever, Jareth stares at her in the sexiest possible way from the middle of the crowd. Bowie's incredible song "As the World Falls Down" plays during the whole scene, and they end up dancing together. For some reason, Sarah remembers about her lost brother and finds her way out of the party, thus ruining the fun for everyone !
The whole scene in the blues bar that begins with Anthony Michael Hall saying, "Lemme tell ya my story, man..."
