The rules:
1. Pick 15 movies you know/like/love.

4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search functions.
1."I'd be the worst possible Godfather. I'd probably drop her on her head at her christening. I'd forget all her birthdays until she was 18. Then I'd take her out and get her drunk. And, let's face it, quite possibly try and shag her." - Will, "About a Boy," a team effort: rvman + grieve

If I rank movies according to the number of times I've seen them, which seems like a good objective way to do it, then it is definitely my favorite.
There really aren't many movies I feel the need to see multiple times. True Stories and Office Space are exceptional that way.
