The imminent release of [Thr3e](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0486028/) got me thinking about movie titles with numbers in them (besides sequels 😉 ). A start: 1: One Flew Over a Cuckoo’s Nest 2: Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels 3: Thr3e; Three Men and a Baby 7: Se7en; The Seven-Year Itch 9: The Ninth Gate 28: 28 Days; 28 Days Later 39: The 39 Steps More, please! (Cardinal and ordinal numbers OK.) ---

I did this, out of curiousity, quite a while bacvk. If you go through the iMDB you can find plenty of flicks with simply number names, especially among small and indie films. I never tried to see how high I could go. Without resorting to iMDB, and only using mahjor releases, I can still get: \*\*The One Five Seven 10\*\* Not to mention **$** ---
