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!

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Cabin Boy
Road House
and many others I'm sure.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

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

What's wrong with Road House?

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Ready to Rumble.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

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

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

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. -ptth-

Too many to say. But I guess the one that raises the most eyebrows in my collection is Spice World. So bad its amazing!

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Teen comedies.. like the American pie franchise, Bring it on.. and so on.

No mention of Showgirls? I must be the only one :)

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.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

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.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Humor is subjective. I found it funny.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

You're not the only one.

I'll add 13 Going on 30.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Nope I'm with you on that one!:)

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Blue Thunder

I love that movie.

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

And while we're at it, Tuff Turf.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Sometimes humour can be subjective. Just like good and bad movies. There can be a certain movie that is good and you can tell is a good movie but you don't like it just because you don't like it while other people do like it. There can also be movies that anyone can plainly see are bad movies. Like Starship Troopers, Crossroads, and Avatar. These are BAD movies....for whatever reason.

Hannah Montana

Ilsa Queen of the S.S. and other women in prison films

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Half these films I feel no guilt for liking.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

was Hysterical I thought... but to each their own. I might go watch it now.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

I'm also going to add rape-revenge films.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

I Spit on Your Grave FTW!

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Haven't watched it in ages, but I loved Waterworld. Had a movie snob in my house a few years ago that turned his nose up when he saw that on the shelf. http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a76...ilies/boid.gif

Oh and OP fail for not providing his own example, even after multiple replies. :down:

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

My collection of Pauly Shore films, which I typically hide behind the Brat Pack movies so nobody will seem them :)

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Bring It On

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

I've been getting more into B films over the last couple of years and explaining off Hell Comes to Frogtown can be a hassle.

But come on, Rowdy Rodder Piper gets coerced by the great Medtech corporation to walk around the wastelands and impregnate women (since the rest of humanity has become infertile) in the name of the human race and fight giant frog people ..what else does one need for entertainment?

"I got to tell you, you're one weird dude!"

I have many guilty pleasure films.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

Ohh i forgot another one that gets me looks. Gilmore Girls. The best TV show ever!

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

I don't really have any guilty pleasures. At least not specifically. I do tend to watch a lot of the animated movies from when I was a younger. The Swan Princess, The Penguin And The Pebble, Wishmaster, We're Back, Troll In Central Park,.....stuff like that. But I'm not afraid to admit that I like the Care Bears movie. I own the 25th anniversary dvd proudly, pink case and all.

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

forgive me, but that sounds rental worthy - for research purposes!

Re: Guilty Pleasures ?
 

You know, I think that's one of those movies that the general public was conditioned to shun and that's all the thought most people give it. The ridiculous part is, it acquired its bad reputation for its production spiraling out of control--not because the final product was bad in any way. Unless someone was an investor in the film, I can't understand why it should matter to anyone whether the movie came in on time or under budget.

I only saw it the one time, but I thought Dennis Hopper was a lot of fun to watch, and that the movie was pretty good. If I had one criticism of it, it's that I already loved Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and I felt like this was something of a retread. But even that wasn't necessarily a bad thing for me.
