There are a lot. I used to be a bit of a movie snob and only watched films that last over 3 hours but have developed quite a good collection of '80s action flicks over the past year or two. My favourites have to be:
Aliens
Commando
Die Hard
Lethal Weapon
Predator
Rambo I, II and III
Rocky III and IV
The Running Man
The Terminator
Total Recall
I think Die Hard is my most watched film. I reckon I must have seen it close to 150 times. I've seen The Terminator and Predator a lot too. I just watched what ever my big brother had really. I've developed a new appreciation for Rocky IV recently as well just for the speech at the end because of the accuracy of the actor they got to play Gorbachev. Stallone basically won the Cold War - he inspired perestroika and won the War in Afghanistan.
Amazing!

Die Hard is one of the most brilliant action films, and Commando is definitely the most hilarious. I can't even believe it every time I watch it.

Get to the chopper is still one of his best lines. It's up there with 'I had the shirt for it but you fucked it up.' However, 'Now I have a machine gun. HO! HO! HO!' is better than any Arnie quote.

Yeh get to the chopper off predator is an ace quote. I think commando has some of the best one liners put to film, ''Let off some steam Bennet.'' Die Hard has to be one of my all time favourite movies aswell, pure genious that film.
