    I am trying to answer the question while seriously including Rom-Coms. But if you’re going to mock me, I will not.

    1. When Harry Met Sally.

    Right. But it’s a shitty movie. This is for the best movies of each genre. It’s in the header, even.

    I guess if you had actually watched it, your opinion would hold water.

    I watched all I needed to watch. Sharknado is a better ******* movie.

My son still hasn't seen it, might be time to fire it up this weekend. I think it just embraces what it is, doesn't overstay it's welcome, and is just so stupid its funny. Its as quotable as any comedy I've ever seen.
    Yea, the wife and i love it but it also resonates because at the time of the movies release i was also a old game tester. Lol

    Grey Bush for the win!

    At first glance, sure. But Western, as a genre, is even more accommodating than BeefStew's colon.

    I’m going to say these are my favorite three in each genre, not the “best” in each genre. Make sense?

    Westerns
    1. There Will Be Blood
    2. Unforgiven
    3. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

    Action
    1. John Wick II
    2. Hell or High Water (I think this qualifies here)
    3. Die Hard

    Sci Fi/Fantasy
    1. Return of the Jedi (first movie I put on repeat in my life)
    2. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
    3. Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

    Horror
    1. Jaws
    2. The Exorcist
    3. Dracula (1993)

    Crime Drama
    1. Godfather II
    2. Godfather I
    3. Goodfellas

    Heist movies
    1. Ocean’s 11 (Don’t @ me)
    2. Den of Thieves (Seriously, this movie is awesome)
    3. The Town

    Dramas
    1. Shawshank Redemption
    2. Gladiator
    3. The Ninth Gate

    War movies
    1. Full Metal Jacket
    2. The Bridge Over the River Kwai
    3. Dunkirk (this is recency bias, because I never saw it until a month ago and liked it)

    Adventure/comedies
    1. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
    2. Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (I love Indiana Jones, was tempted to go 1-2-3j
    3. The Golden Child (I know this movie is roundly panned, but I love it)

    Comedies
    1. Caddyshack
    2. Super Troopers (Funniest opening 10 minutes of any movie ever)
    3. This Is The End (primarily because druggie Michael Cera makes me belly laugh)

    Dystopian
    1. Mad Max: Fury Road
    2. Children of Men
    3. Mad Max Thunderdome

    Rom-Coms
    1. When Harry Met Sally
    2. Silver Linings Playbook
    3. Pretty Woman
    (if slim allows An Officer And A Gentleman in this category it will vault to No. 1)

    Sports
    1. Major League
    2. The Natural
    3. Rudy

    I had the hardest time with action and war movies. Not my most favorite genres of movies. I don’t tend to rewatch those genres a lot. I’ll see a movie and move on. In the other genres I think I’ve seen everything listed multiple times if not dozens. I own most of them.
