What are your top five favorite movies?

[Casper]

With summer half way over, I figured we could start a list of people's favorite movies. This way, when winter hits, we have a list of stuff to rent/borrow/download/buy/steal/whatever your preferred method is.

Mine in no specific order:

- Fight Club

- Out Cold

- Cannonball Run (the original with Burt Reynolds, Roger Moore, Dom DeLuise and Farrah Fawcett)

- Saw (the whole series, I count as one movie)

- Super Troopers
