Movies you are NOT ashamed to admit you like.

Ssshhhh, don’t tell Eve, but…

One of my all-time favorite movies is the 1973 musical re-make of Lost Horizon. (I also like the 1937 Frank Capra original, but the musical version is still my favorite, cheesy Bacharach songs and all.)

I also like, ahem, The Blue Lagoon (Shut up!).

I own Legally Blonde. :slight_smile:

Oh, and Jumpin’ Jack Flash and Drop Dead Fred.

Ever since seeing the Red Elvises at the Gilroy Garlic Festival in 1999, I’ve been meaning to pick up and watch Six String Samurai. Now, with all these kudos, I’m going to have to follow through and do it finally.

My guilty pleasure double feature: Last Action Hero and Demolition Man.

Ohmygod you are so gay.

Nonono. I’m a sick pervert! You know, jerking off to a nine year old Tatum O’neal?:smiley:

[sub]Is it Beer O’Clock in Seattle?[/sub]

[Mr. Garrison]I just act gay to get chicks![Mr. Garrison]

Besides, it’s not like I said Steel Magnolias.

I second The Last Action Hero and Galaxy Quest.

I’ll add Down To Earth, just for Wanda Sykes.

Erik the Viking

I love Erik the Viking! But, I’d classify it as a cult movie. In fact, I was going to ask for a distinction between the two; it seems like a fine line, and there are tons of cult classics I love that could easily classify as B movies.
House III
From Dusk til Dawn
Desperado
Bound
Phantasm and so on…

Okay, Nate & Hayes is definitely a B movie. But I still love it.

Exorcist II: The Heretic
Zardoz
**Incubus **(the one in Esperanto)
Casino Royale
Swashbuckler
The Towering Inferno
Futureworld
Conan the Destroyer

Ahem. I love Steel Magnolias. Granted I am a chick, but it’s one of my top-five faves EVER. I know I’ve seen it well over 500 times. No exaggeration. It’s great for having a pity-party cryfest. Try it sometime! :smiley:

Another one I absolutely adore is The Money Pit. I’ve owned two copies of this movie (both now worn completely out, so I’m hunting for the DVD) and always get looks of derision when I tell people how funny it is. It’s a riot! I even watch it when it comes on television, hacked to death! Terrifically funny movie, and I can usually only barely tolerate Shelley Long.

I also get made fun of for loving Night at the Roxbury. Sorry, but I think it’s hysterical and never get tired of it.

No, I am NOT ashamed of my shameful flicks!

I have seen Steel Magnolias, I just don’t like it. I am a teenage male. I am not gay. I just… like… Breakfast At Tiffany’s. [sub]But not for Goerge Peppard![sub]

I have much respect (and unending terror…) of anyone who likes that crapfest: Hudson Hawk

I like Bio-dome

I have no shame in admitting these! NONE!

Monkeybone with Brendan Fraser and Chris Kattan (in one of his two funny turns, the other’s when he steals Undercover Brother). This movie is so bizarre and bad that it’s hysterically funny. Brendan Fraser is an unappreciated god of physical comedy and facial expressions.

Dudley Do-Right with Brendan Fraser and Eric Idle as a crazy prospector. Ok, there’s no way this movie is 3.6 on the IMDb bad. This movie is funny as HELL, if only for the scene where Snidely and Dudley are arguing over who’s the bad guy because of what they’re wearing. (“I’m wearing black, you’re wearing navy! Check!” “WHY AM I WEARING NAVY?! NOW HE’S THE BAD GUY!”)

Heh. I know you’re a guy…but everybody needs a pity-party cryfest sometimes. I’ll try to think of one for guys sometime. Field of Dreams maybe? My husband just sobs during that one. Great…he reads these fora. He’s gonna kill me for saying that. It’s true, though!

And I haven’t ever seen Breakfast at Tiffany’s, so I can’t say whether I like it or not. I like George Peppard though…[sup]even when he was Hannibal Smith on A-Team! :slight_smile: Oh no…another shameful admittance![/sup][/sub]

I am probably the only person who thought Howard the Duck was funny. (But I am ashamed to admit that)

Plus I adore Enemy Mine and have seen it over a dozen times. (Not ashamed to admit it)

How about Xanadu?

I liked Ishtar also. Not the greatest movie, but enjoyable enough. Until tonight, I was ashamed to admit that.

Thank you.

I’m on the fence about Monkeybone, it was a horrid, horrid movie, the only redeeming factor in the movie was Rose McGowan’s character of Kitty, if i could re-edit the film, it would be basically just Stu and Kitty, cut out all the real world crap and all the other characters…

i own Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the first TMNT, the other two were sell-outs :wink:

Cannibal! the Musical
Tank Girl
Mars Attacks!
Killer Klowns from Outer Space
Hackers

Friends and/or reviewers have dissed the following movies I liked:

Last Action Hero
Dances with Wolves
The Razor’s Edge
Better Off Dead

I saw the 1980 Flash Gordon in, well, 1980 (maybe '81), when I was 13. My best friend and I loved the Queen soundtrack more than the movie, and obsessively pounded our fists rhythmically on tables, arms of chairs, desks, etc. for days (if you know the theme music, you’ll understand).

I haven’t seen it since, but a few weeks ago I checked my voicemail and guess what I heard? Thump-thump-thump-thump…my friend (we now live 2000 miles apart) had dug up a 23-year-old cassette copy of the Flash Gordon soundtrack, and called to play it for me. Made my week.

Another movie I liked–ready for this?–Howard the Duck. I’m not sure if I liked the movie or just Lea Thompson in her yummy years. And so far I haven’t been willing to rent it again to find out.
