Understood. We're probably about the same age then, and might have grown up in similar circumstances. I missed maybe half of those same "formative" movies. Goonies. Dark Crystal. Labyrinth. Flight of the Navigator. Karate Kid. Breakfast Club, the ones I can think of off hand. Simply never saw them, or never saw more than 10-15 min of them until I was an adult.
It sounds like you're being thoughtful about this, which is great. Many are worth watching since they're well made on top of their cultural significance. And Netflix doesn't have that many gems. Don't feel bad about what you're doing, you're doing it right.
And At. Elmo's Fire is maybe a curiosity at best. I didn't care for it much, but the 80s had some terrible fear of Yuppies, and it was basically the Breakfast Club dynamics in a post-high school world. Who goes to college, who drops out, who gets a job, who stays cool, who becomes the dreaded Yuppie. Meh. It was fine as a Brat Pack cultural artifact and not much else, IMO.
