In honor of Independence Day this weekend, I’m dedicating this week to all things Fourth of July. Here were the top three movies likely to grace my screen on fourth of July Weekend growing up.

Independence Day:

My mom put this on every fourth of July from the year it came out to…now. Killing aliens is just as much a tradition to me as fireworks.

1776

Yes, this movie did make the list because of Mr. Feeny.

The Patriot

Yes, even though a good bit of this story was debunked in Mythology Monday this week, it still made for an amazing movie.

What were some of your favorite patriotic movies growing up?
