02. Wall-E and Eve, Wall-E

01. Harvey Milk and Scott Smith, Milk

There's no doubt that Harvey and Scott deserve the #1 spot. No other movie couple came even close to the chemistry Sean Penn and James Franco shared on screen. It was both sexual and extremely romantic and sweet.

Wall-E and Eve is definitely up there.

Also want to mention Benjamin Button and Daisy in Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Jamal and Latika in Slumdog Millionaire, and Victor and Paige in Choke.

10. Peter Bretter and Rachel Jansen, Forgetting Sarah Marshall
09. Frank Wheeler and April Wheeler, Revolutionary Road
08. Harry Pfarrer and Linda Litzke, Burn After Reading
07. Rob Hawkins and Beth McIntyre, Cloverfield


Disagreed on all of those. Forgetting Sarah Marshall was awful and the actors had no chemistry. Harry and Linda weren't that memorable. The relationship between Rob and Beth was the only thing that kept Cloverfield from being a great film. And even though I loved Revolutionary Road, Frank and April hated each for much of the film and were no great movie couple.

06. Hellboy and Liz Sherman, Hellboy 2: The Golden Army
04. Randy Robinson and Cassidy/Pam, The Wrestler
02. Wall-E and Eve, Wall-E
01. Harvey Milk and Scott Smith, Milk

Good choices. Although I would have Wall-E and Eve at #1.

I would also add:

Poppy and Tim, Happy-Go-Lucky

I thought they had chemistry and were a good match. Harry and Linda were really fun together, IMO. Rob and Beth's relationship was the core of Cloverfield and I thought they did a great job with that. And I know Frank and April didn't get along, but I still loved them as a couple.

I haven't seen Happy-Go-Lucky and Let the Right One In yet.
