I've left 9-0 purposefully blank because there must be loads and I want the best ones.

― Jonnie, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

What is this Apollo 14 of which you speak?

Dave Q's idiot brother was sitting opposite you on the tube while you were playing your idle games.

― N., Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

do you want 47-41 and 38-15 too? I'm sure it can be done!

― Jeff W, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

also, figures only (ie no numbers represented by words in title)?

― Jeff W, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Sixteen Candles

Yay!

― nickie, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Ideally I want to get 50-0 in film titles. As for Apollo 14 I fear I have made a mistake, similar to a friend recently saying "Wow, 7 Monkeys is on tv tonight?"

Whoops.

se7en - best of both worlds, ha

ooh the Sixth sense? four weddings and a funeral? three men and a baby?

― katie, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Important point - though I suspect you already guessed this - NO SEQUELS ALLOWED!

― Jonnie, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

28 Days, 24 hours in London, 10 things i hate about you, the whole nine yards....

― katie, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

b-b-but I know how to type alien³ ;-)

― Jeff W, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Words or numerals are allowed but it must be a number. Sorry Katie, but the Sixth Sense doesn't count.

― Jonnie, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Don't all the "Up" movies (director examines group of kids every 7 years) have their numbers in the titles? That should provide a few.
