I dunno. It’s kind of become a cliche, hasn’t it?
Blind Fury – Rutger Hauer as a blind guy with a sword saving his Vietnam buddy from the drug lord.
How did the thread get to be this long without anyone mentioning Strange Brew???
It didn’t – Strange Brew was already mentioned in entry # 49:
Good points, and they ultimately don’t matter, because the acting and the setting’s so weird, lush, and hypnotic. See, other movies from Luc Besson, like La Femme Nikita and Leon: the Professional.. I’ve always meant to see his The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc, as much as I liked Jovovich in The Fifth Element. Who doesn’t like movies with lines like, “Everyone!!!?” Or scenes like the restaurant setup to the gunfights in La Femme Nikita?
Others in the “drunk off my ass at 2AM, but will happily watch all the way through anyway,” category are The Cannonball Run (though I suspect it’s aged even more poorly than I have) and Ahhnold’s Conan the Barbarian. "Conan! What is best in life?!"
EDIT: 25 Conan quotes for nostalgia.
And we should all be ashamed (me included) when it gets to page 2 and no one has mentioned Highlander.
Agreed. Wonderfully silly, but everything about Tremors works too well for it to be called “stupid.”
Consider it stepped on.
I totally agree.
I let my buddy borrow the DVD, and he’s one of those types who nitpicks and rolls his eyes at everything in a movie. I told him, “You can probably think of a zillion reasons why jets, helicopters, and conventional weapons would be more practical. But then you wouldn’t have a movie with Giant Robots fighting Giant Monsters”

My favourite shit film of all time. How they got Ben Gazzara to star in this, I’ll never know.
an honourable mention goes to “Showdown In Little Tokyo” for gems such as:
“You have the biggest dick I’ve seen on a white man!”
(After Dolph has killed 4 yakuza in succession) Brandon Lee: “Nice; it’s like one of those video games–you just defeated the first wave.”
Ah, good. I’m glad to have been wrong and sorry I missed that post.
How did that happen? 
Bruce Willis and Danny Aiello singing?
Together?!
You have to have one hell of a sense of humor to love this flick.
FLESH Gordon…funny and a surprisingly beautiful movie to watch. Great cheesy special effects and awesome curvacious effects.
Excalibur is my standard answer to this question. Brilliant at times, silly at others.
Unless I missed it, nobody has mentioned the obvious choice: Top Gun
“So you’re the one.”
The sequels were lousy. Tremors 4, however, was a prequel movie that was actually good, thus breaking the core of the universe.
And while my go-to film in this category is Hudson Hawk (supposedly many of the people involved in the making of this film regret it. They’re wrong. Just wrong- no further details or clarifications), I’d like to toss out an interesting side-mention: My Name Is Bruce, starring Bruce Campbell as Bruce Campbell, brought in to combat a monster by a fan of his acting, who doesn’t understand that the man is just an actor. As a goofy B film- well, it’s a Bruce Campbell movie. Wonderfully campy and stupid. But it’s also an interesting commentary on Campbell’s relationship to his career and role in the movie world- it makes you really hope he’s made peace with it all, because if he hasn’t, it’s one of the most horrifically depressing movies ever made.
I’ll third The Fifth Element. Totally nonsensical, but a heck of a lot of fun.
Fifth Element and Mars Attacks.
Who’s Harry Crumb?
Harlem Nights
This occurred to me about 10 posts up (while reading this). I thought, if that hasn’t been mentioned yet, I’m adding to the list!
Oh, I think The Thing is too awesome/not stupid enough, to make this list.
A case could be made for Clue.
