Someone please do "top movies with aliens in them" (and I don't just mean "alien movies" because alien movies that don't show aliens SUCK).

Top 5 John Cusack movies:
1. High Fidelity 2. Being John Malkovich 3. Better Off Dead... 4. Grosse Point Blank 5. Say Anything...
Was actually rather hard to narrow it down. Wanted to slot Runaway Jury at #5, but I kept hearing in my head "I gave her my heart and she gave me a pen."
And since I see Disney characters above...
Top 5 Disney animated Classics/Masterpieces:
1. The Fox and the Hound 2. Aladdin 3. Robin Hood 4. The Lion King 5. Beauty and the Beast
I love a lot of the lesser ones, like The Great Mouse Detective and Oliver and Company, but they really aren't as good in the long run. There really are too many amazing Disney films, though.

ooh, good one 1. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind 2. Punch Drunk Love 3. Annie Hall 4. Sideways 5. 10 Things I Hate About You Eternal Sunshine would also be my 1-spot, but I consider it more of a romantic psychological thriller. And I always forget about Annie Hall. Top 5 Natalie Portman movies: 1. Black Swan 2. V for Vendetta 3. Garden State 4. The Professional 5. Closer Honorable mentions to Mars Attacks! (which she's fabulous in, but not that prominent) and Hotel Chevalier (which is short but rather amazing).

I'd make that list, but they might all just be Don Bluth films. I mean, All Dogs Go to Heaven, The Land Before Time, An American Tail, Rock-a-Doodle, Secret of NIMH, and Titan A.E. are all so solid.

Man I remember the commercials for this getting played nonstop ('You can fly?! YOU CAN FLY!!') and I had never had less interest in seeing a movie ever. Then a couple years later my sister made me watch it and oh my god it is such a great movie. It is probably my second favorite 2d animated movie ever, Disney or not. And so quotable. omg I am gushing, hahhaha. Basically Aaron you have to see it.

Top 5 exchanges involving Han Solo:
1.
Princess Leia: I love you. Han Solo: I know.
2.
C-3PO: Sir, the possibility of successfully navigating an asteroid field is approximately 3,720 to 1! Han Solo: Never tell me the odds!
3.
Princess Leia: Why, you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking Nerf herder! Han Solo: Who's scruffy-looking?
4.
Han Solo: Together again, huh? Luke: Wouldn't miss it. Han Solo: How we doin'? Luke: Same as always. Han Solo: That bad, huh?
5.
Han Solo: I think my eyes are getting better. Instead of a big dark blur, I see a big bright blur.

"I'd rather kiss a wookie!" "I can arrange that!"
I always loved Leia's "I don't know where you get your delusions, laser brain." I try to use it as much as possible.
Oh, and Han and Chewie trying to fix the Falcon while the battle is raging around them. *wookie noises* "NO! THIS one goes here, THAT one goes there!"

Oh, and Han and Chewie trying to fix the Falcon while the battle is raging around them. *wookie noises* "NO! THIS one goes here, THAT one goes there!" YES!!! OH! this entire exchange: Han Solo: Uh, everything's under control. Situation normal. Voice: What happened? Han Solo: Uh, we had a slight weapons malfunction, but uh... everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you? Voice: We're sending a squad up. Han Solo: Uh, uh, negative, negative. We had a reactor leak here now. Give us a few minutes to lock it down. Large leak, very dangerous. Voice: Who is this? What's your operating number? Han Solo: Uh...(shoots the board). Boring conversation, anyway.
