Come clean with your guilty pleasure movies...
« on: April 13, 2007, 09:17:49 pm »
One of my favorite guilty pleasure flicks was on the other night.  This got me wondering what other peoples' emabarrassing movie tastes are.

So I'll go ahead and start:

Valley Girl and (I'll probably regret releasing this information)...  Xanadu.

I'd say I've set the bar.  ;D

Well they aren't movies, but I do fancy the Golden Girls and Designing Women.

For me, it's almost easier to list by actor:

Nicolas Cage (Gone in 60 Seconds, The Rock, Con Air)

Van Damme (the first few)

Steven Seagal (the first few)

Julia Roberts (Pretty Woman, Steel Magnolias)

And I truly feel no guilt about it, but since most people think the movie sucked, I'll add on The Ref.

I wouldn't call Valley Girl a guilty pleasure - I actually thought it was a pretty classy film myself (and yes, you may quote me).

Ours would have to be either:

Killer Klowns from Outer Space
Slither (mine only)
Tank Girl (my wife's)

I went to see The Lake House (Keanu Reeves and ---Smurfette---) and actually liked it. I had no I dea what it was about, but my GF wanted to go see it. When I sat down I noticed I was the only guy in an otherwise completely female audience. So I was a bit afraid of the crappy chick flick comping up. The twist was a bit obvious and I had noticed it right at the beginning of the movie already, but apart from that it wasn't so bad.

I think most of my collection consists of guilty pleasures:
Xanadu, Hardware Wars, Groove Tube, The Spirit of '76, Head, and the "Breakin'" series.  All bizarrely entertaining.

I had an old friend show me the entire (?!) series of Sex & the City.  It was not as bad, annoying or obnoxious as I thought it was going to be - actually quite good.

While I admit I enjoy these movies quite a bit (hence the guilty pleasure theme), I'll also say that they can be a very good tool to use when your wife gets mad at you for bringing in another arcade machine - They are a sucker everytime for overly sappy love stories. ;) ;D

That must have taken forever and felt longer.  My wife watches that show.  It's excruciating.

It did take forever (it was over the course of a couple of months) but it seriously didn't make me want to put a head through my wall.  Doesn't mean I'm going to be watching reruns or anything.

Ah, it makes me want to put the TV through a wall.  I have little patience for people going on and on about how bad their life is when they are wealthy, healthy, and have friends.  That seemed to be pretty much the entire premise.

As far as guilty pleasures are concerned, I'll watch almost any high school or college comedy/drama no matter how juvenile. For example, in no particular order:

Lucas, Revenge of the Nerds, Bring it on, Risky Business, Porkys, The Sure Thing, Road Trip.

The only films from that genre that I really can't stand are the American Pie series which are incredibly overrated IMHO.
