Number 10: Jerry Maguire Matt: What happened to Denver? Jerry: Denver got very silent about a day ago. San Diego's got a fever for Cush. This stuff tends to happen the night before a draft. People get crazy. Number 9: Saving Private Ryan Wade: I'm Wade, that's spelled W-A-D-E. I'm small but wiry, with piercing, steel-gray eyes and a rough-hewn but handsome face, I'm from Colorado, my father's a mining engineer, don't you take notes?

Number 6: Footloose Reverend Shaw: I was down in Denver last year for about a week at a Bible convention. And the whole time I was there, people would come up and ask me, "Reverend, how can you live in such a small town, so far from the hustle and bustle of the 20th century?" I'd say to them, "You'd never ask me that if you could just once, just for one minute, experience the feeling of family that comes from knowing that all of our lives are tied up with each of us." Number 5: Misery Annie: I'll get you everything you want, but you must listen first. Sometimes my thinking is a little muddy, I accept that. It's why I couldn't remember all those things they were asking me on the witness stand in Denver. But this time I thought clearly. I asked God about you and God said, "I delivered him unto you so that you may show him the way." Page down to see more of our ten weird movie references to Colorado.

Number 2: Kiss Kiss Bang Bang Harry: Take a guy who sleeps with 100 women a year, go into his childhood. Dollars to doughnuts, it's relatively unspectacular.
