Action/adventure. Anything with a big budget and big battles.

I also enjoy teen or young adult romance movies.

Another huge fail in me not mentioning Jidaigeki films. I'm a sucker for them.

How could I leave westerns out of my first post?

Re: Do You Have A Movie Genre Weakness?
The Sword and Sorcery Fantasy Genre is definitely my weakness. And I do mean weakness. It's tough to find movies on par with Excalibur, Conan the Barbarian, and the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Movies like the Sword and the Sorcerer, Beastmaster, and Krull are a rung below. Below that you have Willow, Dragonheart, and Conan the Destroyer, and down in the depths you have the awful D&D movies, and Red Sonya.

I love sci-fi and the offshoot genre of superhero movies. I even have a fondness for Cat Woman.

I hate rom-coms with a passion!

Movies with this guy in them. Doesn't matter how bad it looks, I'll watch it.

For me it's horror (although I watch less now because I sort of ODd on them a couple of years back), cheesy cop movies and direct to dvd Val Kilmer movies.
