10 movies for iphone / palm pre

If you wanted to pick 10 movies that you would normally keep synced on your palm pre/iphone / nano etc.. Which would they be.

Right now I have:
gladiator
road trip
euro trip
animal house
pulp fiction

I had the last season of how I met your mother on there but now time to take those off.

I don't really watch movies more than once, and almost never on the go, so don't have any loaded on my various movie-capable personal devices. I think I have the first Family Guy movie and No Country for Old Men on my PSP, but I'm not positive, as I don't think I've powered that on in a year. When I flew overseas, I brought my 320gb hard drive FULL of movies and TV shows, and all I ended up watching was Harold and Kumar 2 and five episodes of Bleach (I am WAY behind on Bleach and was trying to catch up).

How often do you rewatch the movies you have loaded on your device? I typically load, watch, delete...I've still got a huge movie and TV backlog to plow through, so it doesn't make sense to rewatch things that aren't extended cuts (like the Watchmen...mmm...I loved the extended edition, and can't wait to get the Ultimate cut and watch it a 4th time!)

Clerks

These are the first movies that came to mind when thinking of movies I can watch over and over again...

I just can't imagine watching movies on that small of a screen.

It's all about viewing angle, not pure size...An i-phone 2 feet away is the same as a 25" screen 8' away. If you hold it 1' from your eyes (wouldn't be terribly uncommon in, say a bus or subway environment) it meets the viewing angle requirements of 26° for THX certification

Anything smaller than that, I agree totally, however.

That's only true until you hit 40. After that, anything closer than 4 feet away is a blur, without glasses.

It is a terrible irony of my life that as my eyesight diminishes with age, screens are getting smaller and smaller . . . . . .

probably better that way, though . . . . if I could have viewed porn on a 2" screen back when I was a teenager, I probably would have never made it out of Jr. High School - too many distractions.
