20. Joe Pantoliano acted in this movie about a singer played by Lou Diamond Phillips.

Answer: Ferris Bueller's Day Off

This movie shows adults to be amazingly incompetent, and maybe to a teenager's point of view that seems to be the case. I find it an interesting irony to see Matthew Broderick as a teacher in the movie "Election" after watching him in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."

23. Matthew Broderick was even younger when he acted in this fantasy movie starring Rutger Hauer and Michelle Pfeiffer.

Answer: Ladyhawke

This movie has a very dated soundtrack, but despite that it's a great story about a love that cannot be without a magic cure.

"Blade Runner" was set in a future that was dark and dirty, and where androids are given a six-year 'life'span. Rutger Hauer and Daryl Hannah both played androids in the movie.
