Volume 1: http://www.ubersite.com/m/72018
Volume 2: http://www.ubersite.com/m/72194
So here is volume 3, which includes the standard pieces of shit, as well as some pretty asskicking films.
Fudge, sorry I forgot to include that one for you in this round. I'll do it next time.
Again, not all suggestions were heeded. For an explaination why, see Vol 2.

Pack, I'm going to try and forget you put Fred Savage in this. If I go Savage at all it's going to be the Princess Bride.
And I didn't say these were on the same level. Some were kickers of all ass, some were just plain ass.
I think you can differentiate.

again, well done my man. but i i don't think 'wall street' is on the same level as 'summer school. both very good movies, but in quite different classes.
needs more "the wizard" with fred savage.
because fred savage kicks ass.

I think the biy who could fly is among the worst movies ever made. And I am including Nazi propaganda, and House party 3 in that list.

Oh SNAP! Don't let Kid'n'Play hear you say that shit nigga! They'll do the running man all over yo ass!
Also, Summer School is one of my favorite movies of all time.

Wall Street is an excellent movie. Oliver Stone has such a singular vision.

'The Great Outdoors' with John Candy and Dan Akroyd.
In fact, you could do a whole subsection on John Candy.
Little Shop of Horrors w/ Rick Moranis
Hot to Trot w/ Bobcat Gothwait
Spaceballs
Who's Harry Crumb?
Also, you CANNOT neglect that brilliance that was Chevy Chase in his heyday!!!
Vacation and European
Caddyshack
Fletch and Fletch Lives!
Spies Like Us
Three Amigos (classic)
...and my personal favorite: Funny Farm!
Chevy Chase was the master of timing and being the butt of the joke. His character would always just remain quiet and content making snide comments until the camel's back was broken, then he'd have a nervous breakdown of mammoth proportions. Beautiful.
The part in Funny Farm where he dresses up in camo and rolls the rock down the hill at the mailman's truck is a perfect example.
Then there is Dan Aykroyd...
The Blues Brothers
Neighbors
Trading Places
Ghostbusters
Dragnet
Other actors' movies to look into:
Eddie Murphy
Bill Murray
Dudley Moore

I will admit to liking parts - if not the entire flik (i.e. Bull Durham) of every movie listed here on Vol. 3.
The Toy has some hilarious bits, as does Summer Rental (When the two stoners end up in court for drinking at the party and burning up the couch, there's some classic witty repartee).
Great series.

Nuke: "The other day Crash called a woman's ... pussy... um, well, you know how the hair is kind of in a V-shape?"
Annie: "Yes, I do."
Nuke: "Well, he called it the Bermuda Triangle. He said that a man could get lost in there and never be heard from again."

As my husband and I dug through the bin at Walmart to get cheap old movies put on DVD, he yelled and laughed when he pulled out The Toy and Brewster's Millions in one search. I'd never seen either one (sheltered child, I guess). We watched them both. Classic!

If it's 80's, you HAVE to do that movie...
