okay - so i went with empire.
i own and treasure the first six. i can probably quote a great deal of top gun but i dont have a copy. the only one i didnt see at the cinema is rainman, and im not too bothered about it as a movie either.
if you're thinking 1987 mustve been a slow year, it was probably tom selleck what swung it. all the ladies loved magnum. anyway if you want to see the top ten of each year heres where i got the info

Empire is my personal favourite.
I despise Top Gun and ET with a passion.
I've seen Empire and Jedi at the cinema but not in the 80s obviously. I saw them in 1997.

Think bttf is probably my favourite. Don't own any of them, but then the only films I own are ones that have come free with newspapers.
I've never seen Top Gun.

cos Jedi came out about a month before I was born so i didn't have a chance to see them at the cinema until 1997
