Ranked #7,514 in Movies & TV, #264,896 overall

No hidden meaning here: these are simply movies that I like.

I tried to put them in relevant groups, but I keep moving certain titles around. Still working on this, as every time I search a movie, Amazon gives me a recommendation that I forgot I liked.

Know of another movie I might enjoy, based on my list? Please add it to the Guest Plexo at the bottom. Thanks!

Teh. Best. Movie. Evar. 

First "date" -- first love.

The first awkward teenage kiss in the back of a dark movie theater with the awkward teenage boy that would one day become my husband, happened at the very end of this movie in 1987.

I could watch it another 500 times.

Swords are cool.

The way is shut. 

Blame my fantasy geek man for getting me hooked on these and other fantastic stories.

I'll never attend a Star Trek convention or play D&D but I think Return of the King (extended version) is just awe-inspiring.

Stunning scenery and effects.

More fantasy... 

Cursed! 

I didn't watch this movie for a LONG TIME thinking that it was a horror movie (I really can't stand horror) ... but when I learned that it was much more like an Indiana Jones story, I was all over it.

Comedy, action, undead things.

More action and fun 

Love. 

This is the bestest "chick flick for guys" ... Sandler (with help from the animals and 'The Animal') makes it riotous, but Drew is the most loveable, tragically unstable woman ever.

LOVE THIS!

She only sings on the days she meets him. Awww.

Cry. 

I don't much care for overly dramatic flicks, life has enough drama ... but these really touched me.

Cheese. 

More movies that the sci-fi fans in the house have made into family favorites.

My daughter actually enjoys Ghost Rider and Transformers more than my son, and more than the "girlier" titles.

The scene where he drives the motorcycle straight up the building has got to make up for some of the bad acting.

More for geeks. 

Revenge. 

There is something sickly sweet with a metallic tinge about justifiable revenge.

It just is.

More unhealthy (but fun) revenge 

Thrill. 

While I don't like horror and gore in the least, I love being scared up out of my seat (once in a while) ... and yelling at the characters on the screen to GET THE **** OUT OF THERE!!

Irreverent. 

These are just wrong. I almost feel guilty laughing at some moments. But, laughter is good for you.

And now for something completely different. 

I've loved these guys ever since the first time I saw Dave and the Giant Pickle, when it was the newest video in the series.

They try so hard.

I'm XP, and I'm a Veggie Tales addict. 

Movies I can't unsee 

I've seen these ones too, but sometimes wish I hadn't.

Or, they were okay, but totally forgettable.
