    Even grouping franchises into one lot I'd not be able to make a reasonable top 5.
    Example:

    1-Star Trek (13 films even if I only love most there are some less favorable but listing these would take out a top 5)
    2-Star Wars
    3-Indiana Jones
    4-Back to the Future
    5-Die Hard

    Then there is Jurassic Park, Rocky, Rambo, Ghostbusters, Terminator, Shawshank, Aliens, Predator, Elf, Matrix, first Transformers film, MCU films and more I'd call "all time favorites" as in I can watch any time

    My top 25

    1. Maltese Falcon
    2. Casablanca
    3. Raiders of the Lost Ark
    4. Citizen Kane
    5. Lord of the Rings trilogy
    6. Empire Strikes Back
    7. Star Wars
    8. Frankenstein (James Whale)
    9. The Adventures of Robin Hood (Errol Flynn)
    10. Flash Gordon (Buster Crabbe serial)
    11. Fire and Ice (Bakshi/Frazetta)
    12. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
    13. The Seventh Seal (Bergman)
    14. Alien
    15. Flash Gordon (DiLaurentis)

    17. Monty Python and the Holy Grail
    18. Batman ('89; Burton)
    19. Creature from the Black Lagoon
    20. The Rocketeer
    21. Angel Heart
    22. Key Largo
    23. Conan the Barbarian (Arnie)
    24. Captain America: The First Avenger
    25. Fantasia

    Outside the top 5, the order can change on any given day depending on how recently I have seen something, and there's always a chance something new jumps on the list, or something old resonates with me a different way than upon previous viewings and displaces something (or something on the list doesn't resonate with me as well upon another viewing) so the list is fluid, but if I were to undertake a viewing of my favorite movies, this is the list I would start with...
