What do the movies 'Snakes On A Plane' and 'Herbie The Love Bug' Have In Common...?

Mentor YT has taken to playing a game we invented among the staff that we call 'Over 20'. The goal is to name 20 movie titles that have a certain theme in common. For example, name 20 movie TITLES that name a form of transportation in them. Snakes On A PLANE, RUNNING Scared, AIR FORCE ONE, etc., The only rules are you need 20 titles, you can't use the same phrasing twice (if you use Running Scared you can't use The Running Man but you could use On The Run) and the title has to NAME the thing you're looking for, not imply it (for transportation you couldn't use Around The World In 80 Days, for example).

We've started a few games we haven't been able to finish yet... it would be great to get some help in the comments section...

Movies that name cities in their titles

We've got: Chicago, Philadelphia, LA Story, Sleepless in Seattle, Escape from New York, Forget Paris, American Werewolf in London. (Need 13 more)

Movies that name something you can eat in their titles

We've got: Mystic Pizza, Good Burger, Home Fries, Chocolat. (Need a lot more)

And we're still working on the transportation one.

I'll post more lists as we try them...

Is March of the Penguins for transportation or food?

Food, but I suppose you can use it for transportation, whatever works best for you.

What does penguin taste like? How do you prepare it?

I would imagine like chicken. You'd prepare it like anything else: fry it up with an obnoxious amount of garlic and drench it with hot sauce! Mmm... fried penguin...
