Remember the Friends episode where Ross conducts a trivia game and the girls lose their apartment, and they say that Rachel claims her favorite movie is Dangerous Liaisons but her real favorite movie is Weekend at Bernie's? Someone asked me my favorite movie today and I was thinking about this 
My fake favorite movie: No Country For Old Men
Real favorite movie: High Fidelity.
What's yours?

My favorite movie is Return of the Jedi. I also really love Attack of the Clones. That I don't admit as often since Star Wars fans look down on the prequel trilogy.

@lawbee11: Creepy, I was coming in to say the exact same. I really do love Life is Beautiful though, but guilty pleasure? Dirty Dancing all the way. I think I watched in 20x on repeat when I had mono.

@erinbaderin: oh I think my real favorite is Almost Famous! Or eternal sunshine of the spotless mind.
I don't think I have a fake favorite.

Omg, when I read "your (real) favorite movie," I totally imagined that scene from friends

@IRunForFun: Almost creepy related.
My favorite is Life is Beautiful-for real/fake
My trashy fave is Grease...which is a cheesy musical as well.

I have three real favorites, no one ever knows of them so: Center Stage, Stella, Just One of the Guys.
So I usually just say St. Elmo's Fire. But given how old that one is, some people have no clue about that one either!

@wrkbrk: LOVE ACTUALLY IS THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE IN THE HISTORY OF MOVIES.
Well I guess you all know my real favorite.
Also very close contenders but no one ever knows them: Return to Me and The Story of Us.
I don't think I have a fake favorite. I will admit that it is Love Actually with no shame! I say the other two also, but like I said, no one knows them.

@skipra: We have the same tradition! We always watch it Christmas Eve. We have discussed that once DD is staying up later we will pick a new family movie for that night and pick a different date leading up to Christmas to watch it. I love the movie so much!
SO many movies in this thread I love!
I have a lot of movies I consider favorites but my top is When Harry Met Sally. Don't think I have ever said a fake one?

@avivoca: Oh man I love Overboard!!
This thread is making me remember so many good movies. I binge watch shows too much now and never watch movies.

My only favourite movie is Can't Buy Me Love - am I the only one?! So so good

I don't have a favorite movie - it's been so long since I've actually watched any movies (I usually watch shows now). This thread has totally motivated me to watch movies!

@looch: ahh my husband and I love Just One of the Guys and we're actually planning to watch it tonight! I feel like it was on HBO all the time when I was a kid.
grapefruit / 4085 posts
I gues my fake favorite is The Godfather or Giodfellas and real favorite is Grease or the Sound of Music.

@LCTBQE: basically every part is amazing. I find myself singing meryl's song from her show in the beginning embarrassingly often.
nectarine / 2461 posts
@JerricaBenton: Isabella Rosselini in that movie is perrrrrfect. I want the potion!
pomegranate / 3872 posts
@LCTBQE: me toooooooo. I've always wanted that potion! And her necklace/shirt! When Meryl watches her transformation in the mirror and goes 'I'm a girl!' I can't...so so good.

@JerricaBenton: I love the hands. I think of that scene often now that my own hands are starting to look old and gross
