disclaimer I am fully aware this list may cause me to lose a few respectability points, but here goes.

In no particular order…

-For quotability, “Robin Hood: Men in Tights”
-For rewatchability, “Ghost Busters”
-Because it makes me laugh every time, “Wayne’s World”
-For sentimental reasons, “A League of Their Own”
-Because its so funny, “What About Bob?”
-Because it’s a good indie film, “Ghost World”

Dare I admit that I generally utter a quote from Men in Tights at least once a week? No… no, I don’t think I should admit that.

All Mel Brooks movies are very quotable. Blazing Saddles and Spaceballs are both great movies for quotes.

a Christmas story
 
Black Beauty (1994)

The last two are unsettling; perhaps they stand out to me for being thought-provoking and memorable instead of being heart warming favorites.
 
Animal House
10 Commandments
Grease
Armageddon
Dune
ET
The Matrix
Shrek
Sound of Music
Wizard of Oz
West Side Story
King and I
