You forgot the most poignot one of them all:
Lucas (1986) - Corey Haim, Charlie Sheen and Kerri Green. This is the definitive coming-of-age/teen movie for Generation X (next to Ferris Bueller's Day Off) because it isn't a typical "popular kids vs. outcast" story. It is more realistic portrayl of suburban high school life and what it is really like in there are different cliques that exist in high school, but realistically, a lot of kids can go from one group to another and not have to be just one thing... But there is always that one group that each one aspires to be because they feel it will make them better than they already are like Lucas' character. |

I know right, it's so great to meet another CN fan! I loved that movie! It's such a great coming-of-age movie for those kids who's parents have them all set to be what they want them to be, but yet they defy convention & have that incredible summer of becoming who it is they want to be themselves.

Welcome to the Dollhouse, a very funny coming of age story that starred Heather Matarazzo. Awesome film. Definitely check it out if you guys haven't seen it.
