What are your top 10 favorite films involving the ocean?

[kylor]

You may ask me "Water you talking about?" I'm talking about any movies where a lot of the movie has scenes on or in the ocean, or films where an ocean has a big part in the film.

So, my top 10 would be:

1. Aquaman
2. The Abyss
3. Jaws
4. Cast Away
5. Finding Nemo
6. Waterworld
7. Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
8. Pirates! Band of Misfits (In an Adventure With Scientists)
9. Splash
10. Into The Blue

Honorable mention to Point Break.

chronologically:

Deluge(1933)
The Sea Hawk(1940)
Dangerous When Wet(1953)
Highlight is an exciting English Channel swim by Esther Williams.
Wikipedia defines the English Channel as "an arm of the Atlantic Ocean"
so I think this one qualifies.
Titanic(1953)
It Came from Beneath the Sea(1955)
The Abyss(1988)
Cutthroat Island(1995)
Titanic(1997)
Deep Rising(1998)
Aquaman(2018)

with a shout out to these favorites that included
some wonderfully effective undersea moments:
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow(2004)
2012(2009))

10? I don't want to think that hard.
Let's leave it at The Big Blue

[Beckford]

I know I've already had my turn. But I couldn't resist a couple of parting salvos. First of all, thanks to hasslein for mentioning "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad". The whole movie's good but, boy, that storm at sea with the wooden figurehead springing to life is an ultra-memorable highlight. And I just have to give a big thumbs up for the fantastic opening of "Alice Through the Looking Glass"(2016). An absolutely amazing shipwreck sequence.
