12. Parker Lewis Can't Lose (1990)

Ripped off: Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
A hot-shot, wise-mouthed kid who rules his high school despite having a face you'd want to punch within five minutes of meeting him? Parker Lewis (Corin Nemec, future star of Mansquito) may have defeated the TV version of Ferris Bueller (where have you gone, Charlie Schlatter?), but there's no doubt that he would never have existed without boldly going where Broderick had gone before.
