[00:00:22] Phil: You know, confident about that.

[00:00:30] Phil: during the top five. Yeah. It's a fluctuating list.

[00:00:32] Phil: get bright. I can't even try to narrow my shit down. It's, it's, it's purely by how many times I've seen it.

[00:00:51] Chris: that would be in the top five. Is that a factor too? Like how much other people enjoy it? Because it's your list, I would think that wouldn't matter, you know?

[00:01:15] Chris: All right. Yeah. I'm up there with you too. Yeah. So I was impressed because I, yeah, there's no way I can do that.

[00:01:23] Chris: Star Wars, but is it really up there more than, you know, all these other movies that I, you know, that I love and I don't know. It's in the
