Top 10 best movies

What are your top 10 favorite movies of all time. Think about it...

-HECK!

Sometimes the list changes (with some of the movies). These aren't in order... except for #1, because there is nothing better, in the world.

1. Star Wars (original HOLY trilogy) Though, Empire Strikes Back is my fav out of the three.

2. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

3. Meet Me in St. Louis

4. Cars

5. Mr & Mrs Smith

6. Life As A House

7. Matrix (first one)

8. Lord of the Rings (the entire trilogy)

9. Beaches

10. The Stand

My list changes depending how much I really sit back and contemplate it. I could retire in the mountains for a decade and be no closer to the list I'm posting now...

So I am going to have to even post a Top 10 by genre since I am such a movie whore. I know it kind of goes against the topic I posted, but it's the only way I can post it. It would take to long to shave it down.

I have Judy Garland, singing "Have Yourself A Merry Little Chistmas" as a ringtone on my cell phone. Only for the month of December. But, I have it saved. I love that movie, soooooooooooo much!

Have you seen, "Tea For Two" with Doris Day? That's my second favorite old time musical movie. I want it on DVD, but you can only get it on VHS. Pisses me off.

no.... but mom and I do like Doris Day... and Cary Grant movies...I think my favorite Cary Grant movie that we have is Houseboat or Charade

I liked him in North by Northwest.

i never saw that one

See "Tea For Two" It's really good.

It's a sequel to South by Southeast

-HECK!

I also liked the old version of Cheaper By the Dozen.... there are a lot of older movies that I like

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
The Fugitive
The Usual Suspects
The Matrix Trilogy
The Shawshank Redemption
Trading Places
The Weather Man (the subject matter is important to me.)
Gladiator
Stand By Me
Pirates of the Caribbean 1 & 2
The Goonies

Ok, so that was actually 16 movies... I still haven't added movies like Scarface and Scent of a Woman, or even Devil's Advocate, or The Sixth Sense... There are too many for me to come up with quickly and effectively. There are other movies like Awakenings (if you like Life as a House, you'll like Awakenings), HEAT, Top Gun, MAGNOLIA, Boyz in the Hood, etc... Too many good movies that are worthy of the top 10...

I keep thinking of so many more. I actually found a list I try to make a year or so ago. Kept adding to it.

I left off Caddyshack, amongst others. This is tough.
