Scary Movie, Gladiator, The Patriot cause I got to watch them when I spent time with my g/f this summer (was fun too ), and X-Men cause it was made and didn't totally suck but it was too fucking short.
The rest, blah, dunno. I'll get them later.

"The American President" was a comedy? I thought it was more of a chick flick. Sure you're not thinking of "Wag the Dog?"

Well, I'd define the "American President" as a drama with comedic elements, so a "Dramedy." Same with "The Replacements" ... they're a mix.
I don't think "Chick Flick" is a section they'll have at Blockbuster any time soon ... besides which, how do you define a chick flick? People I know have called "The Princess Bride" a chick flick ... I don't think of it that way.
I didn't care much for "Wag the Dog" myself ...

fight club was good. I actually made soap in the kitchen after that one. but I used to much lye. should have read the directions more carefully instead of being drunk.
Top Ten Sci-fi movies, in some kind of order:
Uhm...Star wars. and...uh star trek 2: the wrath of ricardo I kinda liked that movie with the aliens too
Altered States is actually one of my favorites, or at least, the first half of altered states is...right up until he becomes a fucking monkey. Then it loses me every time. Had such a cool Carlos Castaneda feel to it, and then he de-evolves and shit...
The terminator was pretty good, but i could never figure out why a computer would have an austrian accent, and so I'm afraid I have to leave it out. Can't stand those horrible loop holes in the plot like that...
Ninja Scroll is excellent, especially when you turn off the sound and make up your own dialogue. This works with virtually anything, but somehow the funniest shit happens in manga with my crew...
I have no idea why nobody mentioned Ghostbusters. that scene with Ray getting the blow job from the spectral babe made me throw up I was laughing so hard.
Dune was...not on this list. Every dune thing on screen sucks sucks sucks. When are they going to get it right? Oh yeah...they did. It was called Star Wars. eh, whatever.
That's not ten but i'm bored with this already.
