3'oclock high - geeky clothes, one dressed as the bully

Adventures in babysitting - I'm sure you can pick up a Thor hat pretty cheap.

Victor/Victoria
Twins
Crossroads
Doctor Detroit (this would be easy at a thrift store!)
Eating Raoul
Jumpin' Jack Flash

If you do a search for "80's movies" I'm sure you can find a good website that lists all kinds of obscure movies :)

Thanks! I did a couple searches for 80's movies but just haven't taken the time to read through everything.
I figured since you guys are all a wealth of knowledge, and most of us grew up in the 80's I'd ask you all first :)
Those are some good suggestions! Thanks Michlle! I LOVE the thor hat idea!

"Earth Girls Are Easy".
Gina Davis and Jim Carrey are in that.

Ahh yes. That is a good obscure one! That would surely fool everyone. Thanks :)
BTW...I love your ring!

Nothing like dressing up as aliens and hair dressers.

Thank you very much.

Heathers - You could be one of the Heathers [the one with the trademark red bow in her hair], or Veronica [Winona Ryder's character]

9 to 5 - Miss Dolly Parton ;D

Say Anything - You could dress up as Llyod and carry around a boombox that plays "In Your Eyes" on repeat

Beetlejuice - Since dressing up as Beetlejuice would be way too predictable, you could do one of the other characters like Lydia

Mask - Since I don't think it would be too easy to recreate the main character, you could go as Cher

Better Off Dead - Demi Moore's character, you could wear the couple small braids in your hair, get a brown suede jacket and carry a guitar

Dirty Dancing - "Nobody puts baby in a corner." I love that movie and I'm not afraid to admit it.

Neverending Story - The princess in the tower

I have more, but I had to write this quickly before Molly started fussing. Time's up! Heh. I'll try to comment with others, later.

And you my dear are the one I was waiting to hear from! I knew you would have some great ideas for me.
I will look into those, and if you have any more, let me know! I think Dustin should to the Lloyd boombox thing, that would be great!
