Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

This is very similar to the thread in the video game forums, but of course deals with movies.

These are movies you enjoy even though the popular vote is that they suck or aren't that great.

Personally for me, one of my picks would have to be
http://www.amazon.com/Covenant-Steve...3538608&sr=8-1

This is a movie where even the concept sounds bad, but I actually enjoyed it a great deal. But it has everything going against it from cliched plot to bad acting.

Galaxy Quest
Road to El Dorado
I'll have to think about it.

Various chick flicks.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Halloween Series (I guess technically I don't like them all, but I own them all)
The Exorcist III (just stay away from part 2)
Dear Wendy (Introduced me to The Zombies)
The Cell (It's at least got some good eye candy)
Silent Hill...

Good times...

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

I for some reason love Mission to Mars...

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

actually that one got great reviews. 90% on rottentomatoes.

most people love that movie. was quite funny.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

I liked that one too. Especially the end.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Jurassic Park deserves so much better than a mere 7.7. I've seen that movie over a hundred times, no kidding.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Jurassic Park hardly seems like it'd be a guilty pleasure...

Jurassic Park 3, maybe...
Liking The Lost World more than Jurassic Park, maybe...
But not Jurassic Park itself...

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Hmm I like this... buuut I'll have to think about it, nothing comes straight to mind.

It's not the same, but I can think of a bunch of movies that are so bad they're good.

Mitchell, which Mystery Science Theater panned oh so well, and Halloween 3: Season of the Witch. That's the one Mr. John Carpenter decided to break the Halloween formula and create one without Michael Meyers. I applaud the effort, but the plot was so bad and the Tom Atkins acting so bad it appropriately bombed at the box office, and thankfully is so funny to watch that a drinking game was formed around it. Haha just reading the plot synopsis "A large Halloween mask-making company has plans to kill millions of American children with something sinister hidden in Halloween masks" makes me chuckle.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

I would also like to add

40 Days and 40 Nights

It's actually one of my favorite comedies.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

I would hope that the Gremlins series wouldn't be count as bad movies, but if they are, I love them anyway.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Gremlins 1 was good, 2 was awful. It sucked that they didn't take themselves seriously anymore.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

I actually feel the exact reverse about it...I'm glad they got goofy as hell about the second one. Made it pretty classic to me.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Big Trouble in Little China - B movie classic.

Monster Squad - I have the SE DVD

Masters of the Universe - Dolph Lundren as He-Man... nuff said.

G.I. Joe the Movie - Its a movie and Cobra Commander was in it. Classic.

Troll - It has a troll and a young, hot Julia Louise Dreyfus

Legend - Debateable whether I should feel guilty or not, but I do.

Beast Master - Requires no explanation.



HM - Dragon slayer (I think its actually considered good) and the Prophecy (once again, I think its a good film)

Ahh! The dreaded double post rears its ugly head. And as it oftentimes so happens, the beast will recede before anyone reads the post calling it out, and people will look strangely upon mine visage and wonder -- what beast is this? Maybe HE is the beast.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Big Trouble in Little China is awesome.


Biggest one would have to be DOA: Dead or Alive

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

• Meatballs 4

• Santa with Muscles

• Kazaam

• Son of the Mask

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

The book was better.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

ARRGH!! NO FAIR! They were on two separate pages so it doesn't count.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Probably because it didn't have Shaquille O'Neal

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Movies like Baseketball, Club Dread, Grandma's Boy, and Kung Pow.

Some of my friends hassle me for loving those films so much but man, me and Sean (Typhoid (Seanphoid)) have had some of our best times watching all that stupid shit.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

I actually like three of those movies, never seen Club Dread.

Though, your movie choice is interesting as they seem like a certain kind of movie.

Have you watched all version of Kung Powwed?
Dubbed, subbed and dubbed and subbed?

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Baseketball and Grandma's Boy were funny. Club Dread I remember thinking was stupid, but if I saw it again I'd probably like it. Beer Fest also of Bent Lizard or whoever those guys are, is also funny. They're all funny but in a really bad way that makes you feel guilty for watching. Beer dulls that guilt.

Never seen Kung Pow.

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Seanphoid?!

Ahahaha.
I just spat milk on my kitten, thanks.
Kung Pow was on the tele a few weeks ago, I meant to call you, but I was laughing too much.

"oooowhhheeeeooowheeeeeooowheee"

Re: Guilty Pleasure Movies
 

Let's see, other movies most people (critics) think are bad but are really funny include: Wet Hot American Summer and Dirty Work.
