Which movies make up your Mt. Rushmore?

Personally:
1.) 10 Things I Hate About You
2.) Can’t Buy Me Love
3.) Pretty in Pink
4.) Clueless

HM: 13 going on 30

Yes, I know I left off the obvious movie.

When Harry Met Sally
Crazy Stupid Love
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
LA Story

LA Story is such a good movie that I dont think people talk about enough.

Edit: had to bump about time. I love Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

I’ve never heard of LA Story before today. I see it has Steve Martin so it has to be pretty comical.

Hmmm this is a tough one. I’m sad that rom-coms have fallen out of favor on the big screen.

In no particular order:

13 Going on 30
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Crazy Stupid Love
Murphy’s Romance

Could also go with Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, 10 Things I Hate About You, The Notebook

Can't do a Mt. Rushmore, but I absolutely love Notting Hill.

I found 13 Going On 30 absolutely awful. I won't spoil the ending but it's the worst kind of ending for a movie. Go watch the movie it ripped off (Big) instead.

The GOATs are the movies written by Nora Ephron and starring Meg Ryan.

Pretty Woman
Dirty Dancing

Agree to HM for 13 Going on 30. It gets that just for the Thriller dance.

Other HM candidates:

The Goodbye Girl
Same Time Next Year
Heaven Can Wait
Something's Gotta Give

and the really old school one...Breakfast at Tiffany's.
