Those are 5 films I watch at least once a year.
Honorable mentions:
Airplane!
Vanishing Point (The Original)
The Shining
Serpico
The Big Lebowski
I wish I had the balls to put Airplane! in my top 5, because I probably would, but it is just a bit too one dimensional to call it a true great film. It is the greatest comedy though.

Yeah, the thought crossed my mind too. It's hard to really weigh it as a movie, but the density of funny and really funny jokes in it is unsurpassed. So hard to pick a favorite gag... wrong day to quit xxx; drinking problem; little breather; jive old lady; every one of johnny's lines which, despite the gay stereotypes, weren't mean-spirited.
