I don't know if you remember any of those but they were great!
Not many, I wasn't a big movie watcher when I was young. I was more into TV (especially SNL and Monty Python, Wonder Woman, Charlie's Angels, V, Battlestar Galactica, etc) but notable films for me then were:
*Superman
*Star Wars
*2001 A Space Odyssey
Logan's Run
M*A*S*H
Apocalypse Now
*Patton
*James Bond movies in general
The Man Who Would be King
Animal House
Wizards
* = Actually saw at the theater
Of those, Star Wars and The Man Who Would be King are still near and dear to my heart.
It's before my time, my all-time favourite movie is
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir
As for my favourite when I was a kid...
The Incredible Mr. Limpet Still a little bit before my time but watched it every chance I got (and still do.) 
Josh and S.A.M.
Godzilla (so much Godzilla)
Angus
The Warriors
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (it's surprising how good this movie was/is)
Predator (saw this when I was five or so, and all I could think was "Wow.")
First Blood
First Blood Part 2
RoboCop
Willow
Stand By Me
Silver Bullet (the final confrontation with the werewolf still sticks with me)
My Stories
Look at that. A full-grown woman pulling off pigtails. Her crazy is off the charts.

Sadly, The Dark Crystal doesn't translate well into watching it today. It's nowhere near as good as I remember.|

Please clarify and state that there is an error here. And, after watching some redone crap version of Return of the Jedi, I hope never to hear about George Lucas and Hayden Christensen ever again (but I know that I will be disappointed).

Watching a lot of movies on TV back when I was a kid, I was treated to the cinema magic of Ray Harryhausen.
Jason and the Argonauts
Golden Voyage of Sinbad
7Th Voyage of Sinbad
And of course Clash of the Titans
These are not great movies, with great dialogue. But they filled my young imagination with awe and wonder.

Duuuudddeeee, they are remakingClash of the Titans. 2010 cannot come fast enough, for this looks awesome!
Also, I forgot Excaliber.
Yes I am excited about the new Clash of the Titans.
I am also very interested in seeing this:
Percy Jackson - The Lightning Theif
It gets the Greek Myth geek in me all excited.
i freakin' loved The Dark Crystal. i still watch it from time to time.
a few that i haven't seen on this thread:
What's Up Doc?
The Princess Bride
Spaceballs
History of the World
Planet of the Apes (just the 1st, the rest were craptastic :P)
Mallrats
Clerks
Fight Club (my all-time fav. "we are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world." )
Full Metal Jacket (Joker's John Wayne impressions are awesome, lol)
just to name a few that come readily to mind.
This'll probably date a lot of us, but Sooner's thread for favourite movie quote has got me thinking about all my favourite movies from when I was younger.
I may rent all these one weekend and just veg on the couch with a truly heroic amount of popcorn and watch them all...
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
