    One of only a few women in the Brat Pack, Demi Moore starredin more films in the 80s than one could count on two hands.

    Molly Ringwald was the "it" girl of teen coming-of-age films of the 80s, and this was just one of many films in which she starred. In this romantic comedy, she starred alongside Robert Downey Jr. as a strong, independent woman who shocks a womanizing man by her indifference after they hook up. Naturally, he falls for her and pursues a real relation...

    In this movie, Anthony Michael Hall and Ilan Mitchell-Smith are Gary and Wallace, two geeky high school kids who, after being humiliated by some high school bullies (one of whom is played by Robert Downey Jr.) when they are caught gawking over their girlfriends, decide to try and build their own virtual woman.
