your guilty pleasures?
do you have a dvd that you really like watching but everyone else seems to bag on here at dvdtalk or elsewhere? I find myself sometimes really liking a movie that most other people think stinks sometimes. Here are a few of mine...
Saving Silverman
Rocky 4
I know what you did last summer / ISKWYDLS
Iron Eagle
Tomb Raider
the Postman
those are all I can think of off the top of my head.. how about you guys/girls?

I've got a lot of those:
Anti-trust
Batman & Robin
Clockstoppers
Dude, Where's My Car?
Exit to Eden
Flowers in the Attic
...just to name a few.
I probably have plenty from the rest of the alphabet too.

3000 Miles to Graceland - Great action, snappy dialogue, and Kevin Costner is the very definition of a genuine badass
The Last Boyscout - hilarious and often tasteless dialogue by Shane Black keep this one afloat.

Joe Dirt and
Monkeybone
..are the biggest two. I thought both films (particularly Joe Dirt) were hilarious. Christopher Walken's character in Joe Dirt may be one of my most quoted characters of all time...
"Does your mother sew?"

I don't see why it has to be guilty pleasure. Just because a lot of people are closet girls gone wild fans while saying how they only watch monty python doesn't make them any less "manly". Anyway a few of my favs are -
Meet Joe Black
Serendipity
Crime + Punishment in Suburbia
She's All That (as in She's damn hot)
Bring It On
and lets not forget Ecks Vs. Severe
