OK, since almost no one stuck with just one movie in the 'favorite movie' (or favourite or liebling as the case may be), I figured - top 10 list time.

The rules:
- Only 10 on the list.
- Numbered or not, who cares.
- No 'cheating' i.e. LotR = 3 movies, Star Wars = 6, etc.

Go!

Lord Of the Rings Trilogy
 
Avalon

Those are movies that had a lasting impression on me for one reason or another.
I could easily add 10 more, but Mike was very strict with his rules. :shy:

Hmmm, 10 movies. Based on number of times I've decided to watch them over the years, probably something like this:

16 Candles
Grease
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Princess Bride
Revenge of the Nerds
Die Hard 1
Battle of the Bulge
Pink Panther Strikes Again
Grosse Point Blank
Home for the Holidays

I can quickly think of another 5 that deserve honorable mention, but the roolz sez 10.

What was it? "...Cole Porter wrote a song for him, You're the Top, You're Leonard Zelig. The problem was he couldn't find a word to rhyme with 'Zelig'"
