I have a number of favorites for various reasons. Arcenic and Old Lace is one and Kelly’s Heroes is another, with a number of memorable lines. Woof woof! But there are more.
For me the Jaws series is no better and possibly worse than Attack Of the Killer Tomatoes – one of those must avoid movies.
Almost anything with Peters Sellers – Two Way Stretch, The Mouse That Roared. Didn’t much care for his last one – Fu Man Chu, I think. Gratuitous vulgarity.
Foreign films are more fun to watch than Hollywood- especially Ken Russell, and his director’s cut of “The Devils” has yet to be released (after all these years and his death). I have a copy on euro format with cuts out of order (the only way is was permitted) – but Scorcese gets to say anything about religion in his.
Some of the above remind me of Hollywood stuff that I liked:Man with 2 Brains, Ruling Class, and some very early horror Nosferatu and (title?) Wolves (Angela Landsbury in a RR-hoodish story).

Not easy to name the favourite, but one of the best gotta be Big Lebowski. (The Dude abides)
