19 “The Notebook”

“The Notebook” is a movie that’s perfect for watching by yourself while soaking your pillow with endless tears, but it also works pretty well watching it on a first date, too. Despite the fact that it’s not the oldest movie, “The Notebook” solidified itself as a classic on the date-night forefront very quickly. Its got the love, loss, Ryan Gosling, and everything in between, and it’s an automatic choice for a first date. SEE ALSO: 6 things you must stop if you really wanna enjoy sex

18. “Toy Story” Who says date movies have to be serious? Throwing “Toy Story” on the screen is a no-brainer if you know that your date loves Disney films, and you’ll also get to relive your younger years while relishing in the extreme nostalgia together. The humor here is still smart and enjoyable, and the misty-eyed moments are just as strong as ever. If your date has a problem with “Toy Story,” then it’s a good way to figure out they probably aren’t worth dating.

17. “The Shining” https://youtu.be/5Cb3ik6zP2I

Watching a horror movie on a first date is a risky move, but one that can pay off in the end. “The Shining” isn’t a cheap horror movie filled with nudity or blood and guts — rather, it’s a carefully calculated psychological thriller that can easily get your date snuggled up right next to you in fear. Plus, it’s a good way to prove you aren’t a wimp. Your date knowing right off the bat that you won’t be scared to crush any future spiders results in major brownie points.

16. “Garden State” One of the most essential parts to any movie is its soundtrack, but it counts for double when it comes to the perfect date movie. You don’t want a boring and dull movie score throughout — you want something memorable, something that complements the mood the both of you share while watching every scene. This is where Garden State comes in. The romantic-drama shines in its ability to translate emotion into sound and it’s something you’ll appreciate when the end credits hit.

Film director Wes Anderson has proven time and time again that he’s the master of originality, and “Moonrise Kingdom” is his magnum opus in this department. The 2012 film is about two 12-year-olds who have fallen in love in the 1960’s and decide to run away. The plot is simple but imaginative, and the innocence of the two children is a delight to share with somebody on the first date.

14. “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist” “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist” has a charm to it that you don’t normally see in romantic comedies these days. The dialogue is clever, the plot is hilarious, and the performances by Michael Cera and Kat Dennings give off a chemistry that’s bound to resonate back to you and your date. There’s something about the movie that’s just downright adorable, and it’s a must-see when you’re cuddled up next to someone after dinner.

13. "American Pie"

Maybe you aren’t looking for a first date movie that’s sweet and sensible. Maybe you and your date just want something downright risque. Look no further than “American Pie.” This teen comedy classic follows a group of high school guys as they look to lose their virginity before they graduate. “American Pie” is unapologetically raunchy, but it’s also laugh-your-pants-off funny. Whether your pants end up coming off or not … we can’t help you with that. 12. “Romeo + Juliet” https://youtu.be/gjxHdNxvySU

Ahhh, what better way to celebrate a new romance than to watch one of the finest romantic tales in history? This contemporary take on the classic Romeo and Juliet story stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes in their respective title roles, and the film is actually really good. Let’s face it, everyone wants a love like Romeo and Juliet. Besides the whole tragic ending, of course. Try to avoid that part.

11. “Silver Linings Playbook”

“Silver Linings Playbook” is about a man who leaves a psychiatric hospital and tries to win back his estranged wife. Meanwhile, a recent widow agrees to help as long as he enters a dance competition with her. It’s kind of a weird plot, but if you’re about to date somebody new, it’s a good chance to throw some weirdness in there early. Not to mention, “Silver Linings Playbook” is funny, sharp, and sports an all-star cast to boot. SEE ALSO: Kim Kardashian's worst photoshoot ever - Why will she exposed her stuffs like this??

10. “Annie Hall”

There are many like it, but none quite as special. “Annie Hall” redefined the romantic-comedy back in 1977, and even though it was released forever ago, it still holds up really well today. It’s one of Woody Allen’s best films and it’s regularly regarded as one of the best comedies of all-time. All in all, it’s an essential date movie with a realistic take on the modern relationship and one to marvel at. 9. “Say Anything”

The whole “holding a jukebox above your head outside of someone’s window” trick is a legendary romantic move. At least in the movies. Chances are, you haven’t had the chance to do this with your new flame yet in real life — but that’s ok. Use "Say Anything" to gauge their reaction when they see it. In all seriousness, "Say Anything" is as good as a love story as it gets and you won’t regret it if it’s the movie you decide to go with on a first date.

8. “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”

Relationships are all about adventure, right? Why not kick things off with one of the best impromptu adventure movies that exist? “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” isn’t exactly a straight up “date movie” in the sense of the term, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a movie that won’t bring you closer or one you can’t enjoy together. It’s filled with laughs and is sure to bring that high schooler out of the both of you again, maybe just a little bit — and sometimes that’s all you really need.

7. “Forgetting Sarah Marshall”

Some of the best date movies are the ones that are unconventional. You know, the ones that are actually about breaking up instead. “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” is a whirlwind of a good time as you watch Jason Segel’s character give a new name to the word “awkward,” but the best part is that you’ve got somebody to share the beautiful cringe with. The movie is one of the funniest ones out there, so watch it together and enjoy the fact that the breakup isn’t happening on your end.

6. “Edward Scissorhands”

Anybody who is anybody has seen “Edward Scissorhands” already, but the movie gives off a special aura that can only be found while watching with somebody you’ve got some feelings for. This Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder combination is one for the ages, and the plot is proof that not everybody is what they appear to be. Possibly a good philosophy for a new relationship.

5. “Titanic”

"Titanic" has a long enough movie for you to muster up the courage to make the first move, but the run time isn’t a deterrent for the actual film itself. “Titanic” is a movie that all couples should see together at some point in their relationship — it’s simply a breathtaking piece of cinema that can be appreciated no matter the genre you’re interested in, so you won’t have to worry about your date falling asleep. You might just fall in love instead. 4. “Friends With Benefits”

So what if you don’t want your new thing with somebody to be lovey dovey and end in marriage and you know they don’t want it either? Don’t make things weird with a movie about everlasting love — keep it realistic with “Friends With Benefits,” the comedy starring Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis. It’s a fun movie that shows the casual side of things and is perfect if that’s what you’re going for with someone new.

3. “Elf”

Is it summer time? Is it Christmas time? Better question: who cares?! “Elf” is a film for all ages and all seasons, and you’ll win somebody’s heart real quick if this is the movie you decide to put on. “Elf” is a timeless classic that features everything to love about a movie, and Will Ferrell’s humor throughout will have you both laughing together with ease.

2. “A Walk To Remember”

“A Walk To Remember” is a chick-flick through and through, but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing. Just be sure to get your tissues ready. SEE ALSO: 10 Popular male celebrities with the biggest penises (With Pictures)

The 1999 romantic-teen drama will tear at your heartstrings pretty badly, but the good part is that you’ve got somebody right there next to you to repair them.

1. “Hitch” https://youtu.be/J7U1KungF90

Will Smith takes on the title role in “Hitch,” where he’s a man helping out everybody in their relationships while failing to do any of his right. I think it’s a situation that everyone’s had experience in at some point. It’s a textbook romantic comedy but without the textbook romantic comedy cheesiness, and it makes for a film that is one of the best of its craft — a perfect feature-length showing for you and the new boo.
