I have to agree that Sandy from Just One of the Guys was perfect. total nympho that dresses slutty - side ponytail, lace gloves for no reason, lots of eyeshadow, at least one shoulder always showing, not very bright (can't recognize that Terry has ****), always wants to have a good time - basically a perfect California 80s girl.
williambrasky always had a big thing for Terry - with the short hair, taped chest and wearing pants (the whole time when he/she was hanging out with Rick) weird but I guess.
Boof was just not blonde and a total downer - I still can't believe Scott screwed up that badly. The blonde in that movie was iconic.
'Andi' was probably better as the character she played in Lucas. but i feel weird commenting about her cheerleader outfit/age, so i won't.
Ali from Karate Kid had cankles like you read about.
sloan was a sniper and is probably my #2. i just wish she would be more concerned with makeup, etc.
Lisa was older and doesn't quite fit in this group for me. She's aged terribly too and I think that might hurt my memory. But see, in that movie the two girlfriends of the bullies (one was Robert Downey Jr.) are exactly the type I would pick as my #1 (i don't think they had a big enough role to qualify) but their cool-at-any-cost attitude is so appealing for some reason.

I was in a meeting and realized that we had no Cusack women (Monique, Cassandra (Demi Moore from "One Crazy Summer") or Ione Skye's character from "Say Anything") and no real Brat Pack girls -- Ally Sheedy or Demi Moore.
Nice to see everyone's got my back.

Rebecca De Mornay, Risky Business. She didn't charge for the subway ride, so she transitioned from whore to whore-like girlfriend. I think she counts.

Oh, what about "Future Prospect" aspect. Ali ended up playing Tom Cruise's woman in Cocktail and then a hooker in "Leaving Las Vegas"
She definitely loses points for being brothers with that punk form Melrose Place, though.

She also invented cold fusion, which makes her just about the coolest thing ever. Also, Jack, what is your avatar? I had been able to follow, but now I'm just lost... |

HAAAAA!
"Why don't you purify yourself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka?"
I hope someone on the Vikings was witty enough to say that on the boat that fateful night....On 2nd thought, not a shot!

Jack, I see your Worst 80's GF and I raise you with Best 80's whoer: Lacey Underall Same Movie. Don't lose the smooth! Also notable, and little-recognized: the girl who plays Maggie also played the mayor's daughter molested by Larry Kroger in Animal House. As far as I know, she is the only person to appear in both of these seminal Harold Ramis works. And then she never did anything noteworthy again. The avatar is Franklin, but I wouldn't expect a cracker to understand. I am contemplating a change to someone smoother. |

"You're a sentimental fool, Kenny. You think you can come right back here from long ago and recreate your friendship just by mustering a smile and telling some nostalgic tales? THAT is what a FOOL believes, Kenny"
Jack you keep your hands away from my smoothness!

I've never fully recovered from my lifelong crush on Lizzy Shue.
And yes, the scene in Leaving Las Vegas was somewhat cathartic.
At least from the perspective of some perverse life ambition being fulfilled.
However, Sloane is the cats meow. She was hot before I knew what hot was.

I'm just gonna go listen to Coldplay and cry awhile. |

Franklin is Gob's vintiliquist dummy on Arrested Development. If anyone needs me I'll be in my trailer listening to "It ain't easy being white."

"Franklin said some things Whitey wasn’t ready to hear." Like, "George Bush Doesn't Care About Black Puppets." Ok... BACK TO HOT 80'S BROADS. |

Phoebe Cates in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. While a glorious slut, her character wasn't anyone's girlfriend. As previously mentioned, shoot for Jennifer Jason Leigh's character with that one. Of course, I guess technically Lisa wasn't either, so we'll give it to ya, pr. Huzzah! |

Wow. This thread is still alive and kicking on the main board?
Take THAT you @#$^@@%^ Gator trolls!
Favoritism for long-time posters like Buffalo? I'm all for it! ;D
The only problem with Monique -- another great call by the way -- is that, for those of us who remembered her as the knocked-up bitch from The Last American Virgin, I still pretty much hated her from that movie.
But Better Off Dead was quite the redeeming performance, carried on in the Bill & Ted movies.
And now, I will end this argument once and for all.
Yes, I love Jennifer Connelly, but she wasn't really an "80s girlfriend." She was just getting her start at the end of the 80s.
The ultimate 80's movie girlfriend is. . . . .
DEBORAH FOREMAN!
Julie in Valley Girl - a legendary performance.
The whorish daughter in Real Genius - one of the best cameos ever.
Casey in My Chauffeur - sassy, sassy, sassy.
And the KGB agent in The Experts - Arye Gross never had it so good.
That dimpled smile is the stuff dreams are made of.
End of story.

Heather Graham - License to Drive. I don't know how this one just came to me. The Coreys, Heather (Whose name was Mercedes in the movie). Just deliciously bad!
Also, who can forget Billy Ocean's "Get out of my dreams, get into my car"?

OK, two problems:
1) NO Elisabeth Shue in Back to the Future? Much hotter, and far less icky as a love interest than Lorraine McFly!!!!
2) While there was a general shout-out to the Brat Pack, I think it is an absolute travesty, particularly on this board, that the hottest doctor to ever roam the halls of Georgetown University Hospital, Dale Biberman (played by Andie MacDowell), failed to get a mention.
