Guilty Pleasures ?
I was curious as to if anyone here has movies that they really love, but would be really embarrassed if anyone found out that you liked them. Also, are there any movies that you ARE made fun of for liking ?

Look up "Guilty Pleasure" in the dictionary and you will find: HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL!

I'm not embarrassed to admit it, but How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days would definitely fall into the guilty pleasures category.

Nothing wrong with Road House. It's the apotheosis of a "guy flick".

I'm the guy who thinks the Pokemon movies are among the finest animated adventures for children of the past 20 years and have loudly proclaimed so whenever I've had the opportunity. So, far be it from me to feel guilty about any of my viewing pleasures.

Both Deuce Bigelow movies, I wish Rob Schenider would find a way to make a third one.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
Grandma's Boy comes to mind, though I don't feel particularly "guilty" for enjoying it. I do, however, cringe when confessing that I keep laughing at Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. I don't even want to like it, but I do.

I don't see why Grandma's Boy would be embarrassing. It's just not funny in any way, that's all. Lots of people like boring things. Road House and Ricky Bobby, I can understand.

Humor is subjective. I found it funny.

Blue Thunder

I love that movie.

And the other Warren Oates swan song movie, Tough Enough.

And while we're at it, Tuff Turf.
