Robot Jox is the first that comes to mind. It was a rather interesting live action answer to giant robot cartoons coming from Japan. In the future, world wars have been replaced with gladiatorial battles between giant robots.
Back to the Future is another classic movie from my childhood. Growing up in the 80s wouldn't be complete without this lazy scifi/wonderfully entertaining movie.
Top Gun... "highway to the danger zone" was playing on my walkman about 10 hours a day, every day for maybe 6 weeks. It was probably the first adult action movie I saw in the theater (I was maybe 3 at the time. Yes, 3).
These next one will likely draw gasps from my fellow TFP members who forget how old I am:
Terminator 2 was absolutely perfect violent entertainment for a young (8 year old) boy.
Mostly, though, it was Star Trek, the Next Generation and it's movies. I grew up on Star Trek Generations (which is still one of my favorite movies).
