This phrase came up in conversation during a long car trip yesterdayu, and it occurred to me that I could actually fill it in: **Pi** [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0138704/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0138704/) **Five** [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0043539/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0043539/) **Seven** (or **Se7en** ) [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114369/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114369/) \*\*8 1/2 \*\* [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056801/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056801/) **10** [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078721/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078721/) Those were the only ones I came up with, off the top of my head. Looking on the IMDB, I find that you can fill in the other numbers, but they mostly seem to be small socumentaries or odd art films. One exception is this year’s **Three** ([http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377309/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377309/) ), which apparently hasn’t been released yet. I could fill in these gaps, but I don’t see the point. For some reason, a lot of these seem to be arty, incomprehensible, or dark. The purist in me rejects things with words added, like **9 1/2 weeks** (although **9 to 5** kinda fits). And numbers as year names ( **1984, 2001, 2010, 1776** ) seem a category apart. Any other ones you’ve seen or heard about, and would like to add? Feel free to go above 10 if you want. Or to use symbols ( **$** [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068152/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068152/) ) or letters ( **Z** [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065234/](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065234/) ) ---
