What are your favorite movies?

Since we did a Top 5 Novels list, it naturally follows that we should make a Top 5 Movies list. So what are they? (it's ok to count trilogies together) I couldn't narrow it down to 5 so include however many you like. Here are mine in no particular order:
-Braveheart
-Gladiator
-The Usual Suspects
-Lord of the Rings (all 3)
-Star Wars (episodes 3-6 only!)
-The Shawshank Redemption
-Equilibrium
-Saving Private Ryan
-Monty Python and the Holy Grail
-Reservoir Dogs

I knew this was coming.

Once again in no particular order:

Back to the Future Trilogy
The Breakfast Club
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (Gene Wilder - the original)
A Christmas Story
Indiana Jones Trilogy

I'm very 80's biased.

Are you serious about Back to the Future? Please tell me you are kidding!

Absolutely not!! I would also like to add A Princess Bride.

The title of your thread is your favorite movies, not the greatest movies ever made.

You got me there. A movie doesn't necessarily have to be good for you to like it. In that case, I would like to add Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo to my list. I never get tired of it.
BTW - I'm with you on the Gene Wilder thing.

I'm a little suprised at the selections so far. Not what I expected. I bet the blooper reel on the Rina in da OC - Unrated Edition DVD is hilarious.

Originally we weren't going to have the bloopers on there, but our fans requested an unrated version. You can imagine how entertaining the bloopers are!

ok here are some of my pics, no particular order, and probably not complete. I have been in a fog for the past 2 days.

-Tremors (classically cheesy)
-My Best Friend's Wedding (except the singing scene, I fast forward through that)
-A League of Their Own
-Xmen movies (I'm sure I'll love the new one)
-Back to the Future trilogy (I have to agree with Dan on this one)
-Lord of the Rings trilogy
-Star Wars (ALL of them, I enjoyed them, :P, Empire still the best though)
-Deuce Bigelow
Does Eddie Izzard's Dress to Kill count? I could watch that everyday.

Et tu, Niki? This Back to the Future stuff is killing me.
There's just something about Tremors. It's so cheesy but I have to watch it every time I come across it when channel surfing.
Pam and Tommy.... ew. "You rock, baby!" Those words are burned into my brain forever.

I know, I love torturing you. It's fun and so easy all at the same time.

Oh, I'm easy alright. I put out at the drop of a hat.

Me?? Easy?? hah no way. You have to wine and dine me, open all doors for me, and tell me how good looking I am. Oh, and you better bring flowers! :-)~

Or just give him one wine cooler. Just be careful when he asks "Does this make me look fat?"!
