I'll highlight truly bizarre choices for any best of list. Unless it is a best of truly bad movies list.
1980
Brubaker - I don't get this at all. Crappy movie that is only notable because Redford was in it.
Any Which Way You Can - A much weaker version Every Which Way But Loose. Except for the fight scene at the end.
Private Benjamin - Did not age well at all.
The Private Eyes - I have no recollection of this movie at all.
Seems Like Old Times - Chevy Chase has about 2 good movies in his entire career. This isn't one of them
1981
Caveman - Seriously?
1983
Easy Money - Rodney was reasonably funny but the movie was pretty weak
Max Dugan Returns - WTF?
1984
Cloak and Dagger - Nope
Greystoke - LOL
Runaway - Thomas Magnum should have stayed in Hawaii
1985
Summer Rental - Oh hell no
1986
Gung Ho - Kinda racist in a very 1980s sort of way
1987
Batteries Not Included - It was bad when I was a teenager.
Blind Date - Stanley Jordan was the best part of this movie.
Harry and the Hendersons - I dare you to watch this movie now.
Summer School - This was about 5th version of the same story in the 80s. Mark Harmon does not improve it.
1988
Hot to Trot - You have a really weird taste in movies
1989
Ghostbusters II - The only movie with "II" in its title that was ever good was The Godfather Part II
Born on the Fourth of July - Fuck Oliver Stone
Ah...this takes me back.

Platoon--Kinda overrated in my book. Not my favorite. It'll be on many lists, I grant you, but not mine. Stone's only good movie? Say what? JFK, Wall Street, Born on the Fourth of July.Movies you missed that are far better than the schlock I listed.
Platoon - Stone's only good movie. Maybe The Doors as well

Color of Money
Risky Business
Top Gun - Sensing some Tom Cruise hate on your list
Bachelor Party
Not my kind of film.Evil Dead?
