Great call on Diner! Rourke went on to have a great career (with all of its “ups” and “downs”) while showing some of the best acting/talent ever. Guttenberg starred in plenty of box offices successes and 80s classics. Bacon also became a star and proved throughout the years to be a really good actor. Elle Barkin had/has a very good career. Stern went on to appear in Home Alone, Hannah and her Sisters, Blue Thunder, City Slickers, and so on. Tim Daly lowkey has had a pretty good career. Paul Reiser ofc with Mad about You, Aliens, Beverly Hills Cop, so on. Definitely The Big Chill, also! Terrific movie with such a great cast. One of the best It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World is a classic with a stellar cast.

The Outsiders was the first book I read cover to cover as a very young reader. It completely fostered my love of reading to this day almost 50 years later. Although the movie does leave out some key points in the ending it still will always be one of my all time favourite movies. AND we can't forget that Melanie Griffith, Flea, Sofia Coppola and Leif Garrett were players also in the movie. Albeit some uncredited. 100%deserving of the top spot

Big Chill - yes many were already known but would become more famous after this film.

I clicked onto this because of the Outsiders. I’d forgotten about some of the others, or not heard of them. I may have to check out some of them or re-watch them with new eyes now knowing what I didn’t know then…lol. Funny how I didn’t recognize James Spader after all these years and I’ve watched Pretty in Pink so many times. I was a teen of the 80’s now I’m a huge Blacklist fan…lol.

Good list, but another movie is the original Red Dawn and TAPS. I would have also chosen Sixteen Candles or Back to School over Pretty in Pink.

The Outsiders definitely earned top spot and American Graffiti scored a solid second, but you failed to mention Suzanne Somers in the small role of the girl in the TBird pre Three’s Company.

'Young Guns' - although they were already pretty famous, I guess - but then, what about 'Silverado'? Such a huge cast of actors who go on to be mega stars.

No, Angels in the outfield. That movie was stacked with future stars

Also Mackenzie Phillips is in American Grafitti.
