1. Little Miss Sunshine (2006)

2. Mamma Mia! (2008)

3. Lilo & Stitch (2002)

"Hawaii looks gorgeous, and it's impossible to not want to go to the beach after watching the movie. Even more so if it's stinking hot."
4. Moonrise Kingdom (2012)

5. Blue Crush (2002)

"I always watch it when I'm ready for summer and it's getting near. Not that it isn't practically summer almost all year in Florida, but still."
6. Ferris Bueller's Day Off

7. Some Like It Hot (1959)

"It's a classic for a reason! It's HILARIOUS, and the whole film is so much fun and outrageous but expertly crafted. It's so well made by legendary director Billy Wilder, and it's light and sunny with scenes on the beach and a yacht, and some great songs. It's such a summery film!"
8. Wet Hot American Summer
