Return of the Jedi for me too.

SF? WarGames. Let's be honest— RotJ kinda sucked. It completes the original trilogy, and it's not as bad as the prequels or the LaterMoviesFromThePitOfHellywoodWhichShallNotBeNamed. WarGames is a much, much, better film— funny, tense, and not unwise, and with a talented cast.

For Fantasy, I'll go with Something Wicked This Way Comes— alas, despite his script work, it's not Ray Bradbury's excellent novel, but it's got Jason Robards as the aging father, and Jonathon Pryce as a deliciously sinister Mr. Dark.

For the record, The Dark Crystal was 1982, and doesn't belong on this list.

I Nuovi Barbari – gotta dig the postapoc stuff.

Alsp, The Twilight Zone.

Return of the Jedi.

Carrie Fisher in a metal bikini. All that needs to be said I'd think.:)

Strange Invaders
Brainstorm
The Dead Zone

Honorable Mention
The Keep
Space Hunter – "Are they missing any limbs? I hate it when they
have missing limbs."

Of what I've seen listed; I'll go with The Dark Crystal.

Wrong year! The Dark Crystal was ‘82!

Jedi. As noted, Carrie Fiser in a bikini, and for myself, I have a lot of respect for the Ewok engineers. For a neolithic culture, those were great traps.
