From "Animal House"s' infamous toga party to Will Ferrell streaking at a Snoop Dogg concert in "Old School," one thing's for certain: These parties rocked.

"My favorite comedy is 'Sixteen Candles.' Since the first time I saw it, it has always been my favorite.

"I don't know what makes it so special exactly, but I think it's a mixture of things. For starters, it's hilarious. Second, it's one of those movies that you quote your whole life. And third, the characters! What a great group of characters that movie has.

"It's a movie you really remember and it's just such a classic."

Mia Wasikowska currently stars in "Jane Eyre," and recently co-starred in the Oscar-nominated drama "The Kids Are All Right."

In honor of Topher Grace's nostalgic comedy, we're celebrating the 25 most-uniquely only-in-the-80's comedies, the ones where the hair was froofy, Eddie Murphy still brought the funny, and the geek inherited the Earth. Get More »
