Blazing Saddles still makes me laugh, but I have a puerile sense of humour.
Life of Brian is impossibly funny.
Liked the Tim Burton Batman films, but would take Nightmare before Xmas as a fave. However Christina Ricci in Sleepy Hollow is rather lovely
Vanya on 42nd Street is a neat reworking of Chekhov, and I loved Onegin when that came out.
Sticking with the Russian theme I'd also recommend Kukusha for an exquisitely filmed production (not a bad story either, but a bit slow and too dependant on a laboured linguistic confusion). And film nerds wouldn't want to miss Russian Ark, shot in a single 90-minute take in the Hermitage. It's a technical tour-de-force, but a deep knowledge of Russian history would have made it more watchable. Hey ho!
American Beauty is good, thoroughly enjoyed both American Splendor and Lost in Translation last week [note for spelling pedants: AS is an American film and adopts the US spelling of the word more commonly known as 'splendour'. Don't blame me]
Can I suggest Cabaret without calling my sexuality into question? I played in a stage band for a production of the musical when I was a kid and was bowled over by it.

it has actually sparked some debate about why peopel like they films they do... rj seems to have more of a problem with endless (and pointless) "top 10" lists that dont actually tell you anything interesting
What’s the difference between a buffalo and a bison?

Too many to list,but my all time Top Three are:
Cocteau's " La Belle Et La Bete"
Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange"
and Herzog's " Nosferatu" (though I'm quite partial to the silent one too)
I have to say I also like a lot of the films also listed here by my fellow Heartlanders
