Just for grins (and to avoid working) I tallied the most mentioned films. Here are the top ten (well, twelve).
Jaws (10 mentions)
Alien (6 mentions)
Ben-Hur (6 mentions)
Lawrence of Arabia (6 mentions)
Raiders of the Lost Ark (6 mentions)
The Good the Bad and the Ugly (6 mentions)
The Godfather (5 mentions)
Star Wars (5 mentions) Probably more than that if you include all the sequals.
Back to the Future (4 mentions)
NORTH BY NORTHWEST (4 mentions)
The Empire Strikes Back (4 mentions)
The Wild Bunch (4 mentions)
There you have it -- the 12 greatest movies ever made.
My personal Top 5 would include Ben-Hur, Giant, Spartacus, North By Northwest, and How The West Was Won.
