More like Big Trouble on Little TV screen! (See what I did there??) I forced 10 friends to cram in to the playroom of my house just to watch Kurt Russell kick some ass. I could only love him more in Overboard.

“Getting there is half the fun.” Anyone whose parents ever said that to them knows exactly what to expect. There really is nothing like a John Hughes film to make one feel nostalgic. This being one of his most popular films, it’s especially WIN! This 1983 film introduced us to the Griswold family, who went on to entertain us even more in European Vacation and Christmas Vacation. Tell us about your favorite scenes or quotes in the comments.

What is not to like here? Tom Hanks? A big, slobbery Dogue de Bordeaux (that would be Hooch) that—wait for it—helps solve a crime?! Oh, dog may be man’s best friend, but he is also man’s best costar. This 1989 film performed well at the box office (an attempt at a spin-off television series was even made) depsite later becoming a constant source of jokeage for Mr. Hanks upon becoming more famous.

Yippee kai yay! When Die Hard was released in 1988, it rejuvenated the action film genre. It spawned several sequels (most recently, 2007’s Live Free or Die Hard) and is, arguably (along with Pulp Fiction), the highlight of Bruce Willis’ career. If you like your action films with a bit of Christmas fun (and a score that references A Clockwork Orange), then this is the action film for you!
