I'll start first with "Real Genius". Just watched it the other day, and was surprised at how the jokes were still funny, and the message still relevant. The final 5 minutes of the film, with Tears for Fears' "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" as the kids play in the popcorn and William Atherton rolls up to the house is one of those perfect blendings of song and film.
