00:00I love you.
00:02I know.
00:04Welcome to Ms Mojo, and today we're counting down the galaxy's best and strongest romantic pairs.
00:11I'm just exactly where I want to be.
00:18Number 10. Doc Brown and Clara Clayton. Back to the Future, Part 3.
00:24I never met a woman who liked Jules Fred before.
00:30I never ever met a man like you before.
00:35The third and final installment of the 80s hit franchise, Back to the Future 3, features all the elements of a great blockbuster.
00:42Action, adventure, and yes, of course, romance.
00:46While stuck in the Old West in the 1800s, the eccentric time traveler Doc Brown falls in love with schoolteacher Clara Clayton.
00:54Would you like... Would you care to...
00:59I'd love to.
01:00Both smart and full of excellent knowledge, the two souls match both on an intellectual and an emotional level.
01:07Whether they are together in the past or the future, we are confident that this couple would be perfect in any timeline.
01:14You know, I'm almost glad that snake spooked those horses, otherwise we might never have met.
01:21I suppose it was destiny.
01:24Number 9. Sarah Connor and Kyle Reese. The Terminator.
01:28Some legend, huh? You must be pretty disappointed.
01:34No, I'm not.
01:38As if attempting to outrun a murderous cyborg isn't hard enough, throw romance on top of that and you have a high-stakes plot.
01:45The soldier from the future, Kyle Reese, travels back to protect Sarah Connor from an evil robot set out to kill her.
01:51Romance is the furthest thing from their minds.
01:54I'm here to help you.
01:56I'm Reese, Sergeant Techhog, BN 38416, assigned to protect you.
02:01You've been targeted for termination.
02:03Of course, the dangerous adventure bonds the two, and before they know it, they're falling for each other.
02:08This closeness gives the action-packed film some realness and humanity that gets the audience to root for their survival.
02:15I came across time for you, Sarah. I love you. I always have.
02:23Number 8. Paul Atreides and Charney. June and June Part 2.
02:28Talk about meeting the person of your dreams.
02:30Based on Frank Herbert's epic 1965 novel, June Part 1 and 2 see young Paul Atreides taking refuge among the Fremen after his family is betrayed.
02:40Now you are our brother. Call Muad'Dib Usul.
02:48Thanks to his powers of prescience, he's had visions of a Fremen warrior, Charney, and sure enough, after the two meet, they fall head over heels.
02:57While fighting alongside each other, they make a fearsome team.
03:00Charney, I want you and your fedaykin to then attack from the east, inside the basin. I'll strike from the north, head on.
03:08In Denis Villeneuve's adaptation, Paul's role as both a savior and destroyer eventually drives a wedge between them.
03:15Thanks to the chemistry between Zendaya and Timothy Chalamet, we can't help but root for them, though, even when they're at odds.
03:21You promised me you didn't want power.
03:25No matter what I do, you still don't trust me.
03:27Because you're a foreigner.
03:28Number 7. Wall-E and Eve. Wall-E.
03:42Over the years, Pixar has produced some of the best couples in animated film.
03:46Carl and Ellie, Mr. and Mrs. Incredible, and Eve and Wall-E.
03:50Even though the robot and droid are supposed to be emotionless, somehow love finds a way to cut through their many nuts and bolts and get their artificial hearts beating.
04:08Barely ever talking, the two communicate through their actions, which speak louder than words.
04:13Whether they're in space or on Earth, Wall-E and Eve are an out-of-this-world couple who we can't help but gush over.
04:33Number 6. Spock and Uhura. Star Trek. Kelvin Timeline.
04:37I will be back.
04:39You better be. Help me monitor your frequency.
04:44Thank you, Nyota.
04:51The pairing of the iconic characters Spock and Uhura surprised many Trekkies when the Star Trek franchise returned to the big screen in 2009.
04:59Director J.J. Abrams once referred to this romance as incredibly intimate.
05:04At first, they are said to have a student-teacher relationship, but soon it becomes pretty clear that something more is going on between them.
05:11It was an attempt to avoid the appearance of favoritism.
05:15No, I'm assigned to the Enterprise.
05:21Yes, I believe you are.
05:23Their romantic arc is significant for the usually emotionless and stoic Spock, as it forces the character to grow and develop.
05:30And if there's one thing that'll change someone, it's love.
05:33It is not in the Vulcan custom to receive again that which was given as a gift.
05:43Number 5. Jake Sully and Neytiri. Avatar franchise.
05:47I see you.
05:54Two worlds collide when protagonist Jake Sully arrives in Pandora when he meets Neytiri.
05:59The former soldier and Na'vi resident don't exactly get off on the right foot, but as fans know, they warm up to each other over time.
06:07Neytiri calls me scum. It means moron.
06:11Their romance is full of adventure and thrills, which brings them closer together and creates a tight bond.
06:17Also, it doesn't get more romantic than having a date under the sacred tree.
06:21But this woman must also choose me.
06:23She already has.
06:26Their relationship eventually blossoms into marriage and kids.
06:29And with many sequels in the works, we're sure that there's plenty more in store for those two lovebirds.
06:35Number 4. Joel and Clementine. Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind.
06:39It's gonna be gone soon.
06:43I know.
06:46What do we do?
06:49What do we do?
06:54Enjoy it.
06:55Although their love story is one of heartache and hardship, their romance is still one of our favorites.
07:01Although they set out to erase their memories of each other, their love transcends even the most advanced technology.
07:07His eyes are open.
07:11Has this happened before with him?
07:13No.
07:15Oh, this is...
07:16Not your typical sci-fi adventure.
07:18Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind is bittersweet.
07:21Depicting both the trauma and joy of being in love, the film never shies away from showing the painful side of romance.
07:27Maybe I should end it right there.
07:30Leave you at the flea market.
07:32Do some costume jewelry.
07:34Maybe you could find yourself a nice antique rocking chair to tie in.
07:38Joel and Clementine capture that complexity wholeheartedly.
07:41And no matter how much it can hurt to watch, we're rooting for them every step of the way.
07:50The general premise of this 80s flick does not exactly spell romance.
07:57You're nuts, Scott.
08:02Scott.
08:03Grieving the loss of her late husband, Jenny Hayden, gets the shock of her life when an alien clones and inhabits his body.
08:10Although she's initially terrified of the creature, the two eventually form a meaningful connection
08:15as they head on a mission to Arizona so the Starman can meet up with a ship sent to rescue him.
08:21What's it like up there?
08:24It is beautiful.
08:26Not like this, but it is beautiful.
08:29It helps that the extraterrestrial shares her hubby's likeness.
08:33This film might not have the happiest of conclusions, but Jenny and the Starman's love story is written in the stars.
08:39Never gonna see you again, am I?
08:44No.
08:50I love you.
08:55I'm just another guy.
08:57No, Neo, that's not true. It can't be true.
09:00Why?
09:01Unlike The Blue Pill and The Red Pill, both of these characters are the right choice.
09:06The former hacker and the computer programmer make one heck of a team and, dare we say, one of the most stylish in the sci-fi genre.
09:13Let me give you one piece of advice.
09:17Be honest.
09:18In the game of The Matrix, both players battle to survive the simulated reality and end up falling for each other.
09:24Despite everything they go through, it's Trinity's true love's kiss that saves Neo's life.
09:29You hear me?
09:32I love you.
09:37Not every couple can say that their love can reverse death.
09:41And for that, they can earn a top stop in our book.
09:44Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions.
09:48Chris and Raya, Solaris, a romance between a therapist and a spaceship crew member.
09:53Am I alive or dead?
10:00We don't have to think like that anymore.
10:07We're together now.
10:08Fred Kwan and Laliari, Galaxy Quest, an out-of-this-world romance that was created by Steven Spielberg.
10:19Hey, get a room, guys.
10:25Whoa!
10:27Tris Pryor and Tobias Eaton, Divergent.
10:30From page to screen, these two are a great pair in any medium.
10:35I don't want to go too fast.
10:39It's okay.
10:42I've already got my spot on the floor.

11:04Han Solo and Princess Leia, Star Wars franchise.
11:07They are the most famous couple in the galaxy, but they are also one of cinema's most famous couples ever.
11:14Defenders of the Rebellion, Han Solo and Princess Leia have been a fan-favorite couple since they first appeared on screen in the late 70s.
11:22Not a bad bit of rescuing, huh?
11:24You know, sometimes I amaze even myself.
11:27That doesn't sound too hard.
11:29They don't see eye to eye initially, but eventually sparks start to fly between them.
11:33And who could blame them?
11:35I think you just can't bear to let a gorgeous guy like me out of your sight.
11:39I don't know where you get your delusions, laser brain.
11:42She's a literal warrior princess, and he's the handsomest rogue in the galaxy.
11:47Going on to protect the universe and raise a family, they are true pop culture icons.
11:52You know, no matter how much we fought, I've always hated watching you leave.
11:59That's why I did it.
12:01So you'd miss me.
12:03Did your favorite couple make the list?
12:05Let us know in the comments.
12:08I see now.
12:10I can't save my family by running.
12:13This is our home.
12:15This is our fortress.
