Movies you're embarrassed to like

[Fire Me Boy!]

Your guilty pleasures... the movies you don't want people to know you like.

Dick Tracy - but I'm proud of that, and not very guilty about it
Battlefield Earth isn't THAT bad
Anything by Ed Wood
10 Things I Hate About You
Just One of the Guys
Opportunity Knocks

[Sully]

Why would you be emnarrassed to like "Just One of the Guys?"
Great rack!!!


Seriously, one of my holiday favorites is "Love Actually."

[Fire Me Boy!]

Why would you be emnarrassed to like "Just One of the Guys?"
Great rack!!!


Seriously, one of my holiday favorites is "Love Actually."

Because I'm a filmmaker and a movie buff... and it's not very good. But I like it.

[Dartgod]

Titanic.

Yeah, I know.

[Fire Me Boy!]

Titanic.

Yeah, I know.

ROFL

[pikesome]

Waterworld
Last Action Hero

[beach tribe]

Requiem for a dream.

Save the Last Dance (pathetic, I know)

[Jilly]

Why would you be emnarrassed to like "Just One of the Guys?"
Great rack!!!


Seriously, one of my holiday favorites is "Love Actually."

no she didn't, it was probably just one of the earliest movies that you saw a "rack" so it's had you excited ever since!!!!

[keg in kc]

There has to be one, but I'll be damned if I can think of it right now.

[Dartgod]

Believe me, it's not so much the plot of the movie as it is the way the collision and subsequent sinking is depicted. It just fascinates me for some reason.

[Frazod]

Freejack

[Fire Me Boy!]

Requiem for a dream.

That's a good movie. Hard to watch, though, because it's slit-your-wrist depressing.

[keg in kc]

Believe me, it's not so much the plot of the movie as it is the way the collision and subsequent sinking is depicted. It just fascinates me for some reason.And I bet it has nothing to do with Kate Winslets nobbies.

You also read playboy for the articles, I'm sure.

[pikesome]

I'm not sure Mary Poppins counts but my 12 yo thought/thinks I was Goebbels for making him watch it.

[Fat Elvis]

Meet the Parents

[pikesome]

Freejack

Dude...

[beach tribe]

That's a good movie. Hard to watch, though, because it's slit-your-wrist depressing.

Probably the darkest shit I've ever seen. You would have to be sick to enjoy it, that why it embarasses me. I don't even know if I enjoy it but I'm definately captivated by it.

[Chiefs_5627]

Bill and Teds, Excellent Adven./Bogus Journey

[Hammock Parties]

Any number of stupid romantic comedies.

[Amnorix]

I actually tend to like romantic comedies as a rule, and I also go in for musicals. So there's a pretty long list of unmanly movies there.

[MVChiefFan]

I watch "The Ringer" and "Benchwarmers" everytime I run across them on a movie channel. Stupid, I know, but I can't help it.

[gblowfish]

Rhubarb.
The Baseball Cat.

[RockChalk]

Grandmas Boy
Silverado
The Negotiator
Blue Chips

[beach tribe]

Grandma's boy is fukin funny.

[Tribal Warfare]

Moulin Rouge

[Gonzo]

The Postman, (Good Premise)

Logan's Run (So goofy it was good)

[milkman]

Silverado


That's one for me.

I gotta say though, that whole deathbed, alone in a cave, out saving the town in just a couple of days almost killed it for me.

[kstater]

The Replacements.

[MTG#10]

Some of the ones mentioned are really good movies, I dont know why anyone would be embarrassed to like them. Grandma's Boy, Meet the Parents and Requiem for a Dream are all good movies.

As for me, Titanic, Freddie Got Fingered, Howard the Duck, Mars Attacks...thats all I can think of off the top of my head.

[PhillyChiefFan]

The Replacements.

Good one! Roadhouse and Point Break are mine.

[MTG#10]

Point Break is a great flick.

[Fire Me Boy!]

Point Break is a great flick.

Dirty Dancing

:sulk:

[RockChalk]

Good one! Roadhouse and Point Break are mine.

Absolutely, can't believe I forgot about them since they are both in my collection.

Throw Under Siege in there for me.

And Grandma's Boy is funny....strike it from my list because I'm not embarrassed to admit it anymore!!!!!!!!!

[MTG#10]

Dirty Dancing

:sulk:

:LOL:

And I thought me liking Titanic was queer...

:D

[RockChalk]

That's one for me.

Father of the Bride / II

I'm a Steve Martin fan

[Fire Me Boy!]

:LOL:

And I thought me liking Titanic was queer...

[CoMoChief]

Knockaround Guys
Blue Chips
Rocky 5 (just because it's part of the Rocky series). needless to say it was clearly the worst boxing movie ever.

[siberian khatru]

The Way We Were

[MTG#10]

Knockaround Guys

Another really good film. I dont know why so many people hate it.

[Nzoner]

Debbie Does Barnyard Animals :)

[milkman]

The Way We Were

You definitely need help.

[Bowser]

no she didn't, it was probably just one of the earliest movies that you saw a "rack" so it's had you excited ever since!!!!

Heh. "Deathstalker"

[Simply Red]

No brainer...It'd be Julian Donkey Boy.

Why be embarrassed, this are both great movies. Classics

Sponge Bob movie.

Blasphemy! There's no shame in liking that movie. Selma Hayek dancing is reason enough to watch it.

There might be shame for Clooney for being in it, though... :D

And it goes very well with Planet Terror for a Vampire/Zombie double feature.

[Nzoner]

Seriously,I don't get it,why would anyone be embarrassed to admit they like a certain movie or song,I mean it's not like you're coming out of the closet and admitting you enjoy meatpeeking or worse.

[MTG#10]

"From Dusk till Dawn"
Great movie. A lot of people liked it until the bar scene then thought that ruined it...I thought it was all great.

[crazycoffey]

Love Actually
The Cutting Edge "toe pick"
Serendipity

[pikesome]

I've got to add Legend and Labyrinth to the list too.

[Bowser]

And it goes very well with Planet Terror for a Vampire/Zombie double feature.

I think Starship Troopers fits in with the whole monster theme, as well.

[Megbert]

Popeye - live action.

Freeway - Early Reese Witherspoon movie - modern retelling of lil red riding hood. also has a pre 24 Kiefer as a the 'big bad wolf'.

"they live" is a great movie!!

i like "boat trip"

Just Friends.

Just Friends.

I love that movie.

[DTLB58]

Kramer vs Kramer....Embarassing part, probably becaue it's not very manly and there is crying in it blah,blah,blah.

But from the stand point that the dad did nothing wrong, his wife walked out on him, left him the kid. He manned up and took care of his son responsibly.

I had just as much to do with how our kids were brought up as my wife (I know I changed more diapers than she did). I hate it when men are sterotyped as not good parents just because we are men. When we do something we are suppose to as a parent we hear well that's his job, when something happens and we can't be somewhere with them it's they aren't spending time with the kids. No win situation.

I know some women right now that has 4 kids under 10 by 3 different men and is basically refusing to take care of them just because she can't handle them all. The kids have been in and out of foster care just because their mother is a lazy whore.

The movie depicts Dustin Hoffman as what most of us are, good dads that really love our children and when their mother walks out on life we would stand up and take care of them.

[cdcox]

A bunch of romantic comedies, but I'm really not embarrassed to admit liking them.

Nothing But Trouble -- Really, really bad, but I like it.

[Deberg_1990]

Any old Chuck Norris or Steven Seagal movie before he got fat. I love those flicks!

Me too on that one.

Good one! Roadhouse and Point Break are mine.

"All you have to do is follow three simple rules. One, never underestimate your opponent. Expect the unexpected. Two, take it outside. Never start anything inside the bar unless it's absolutely necessary. And three, be nice. "


Road House would be one of mine as well....

"They Live" - Rowdy Roddy Piper and Keith "The Arbiter" David.


great movie...i stumbled upon this about 3 years ago on some HD movie channel. little did i know i was getting myself into a true masterpiece

[RockChalk]

another one for me, Maverick.

[DTLB58]

Didnt she end up with the Kid at the end?? Been awhile since ive seen that.

The judge awarded her custody but then she gave it back to him. His testimony in court got to her.

Her reason for leaving was that he was not a good husband because he spent to much time at work and not with her.

The line that got to her was "Just because your not a good husband, doesn't mean your not a good father"

[Adept Havelock]

Pearl Harbor.


Yep.

Saw it AT LEAST 20 times at the theatre.

[Amnorix]

The Notebook
Walk to Remember
Sweet Home Alabama


My wife might leave me for you with this list. Those are 3 of her all-time favorites.

[elvomito]

Idiocracy.i love that movie. i often find that people who don't like it, feel that way because the movie is talking about them.

[MVChiefFan]

"Not Without My Child". The wonderfully made lifetime movie starring the effervescent and brilliant Merrideth Baxter Bernie.

Pearl Harbor was horrible. Not because it had a love story intertwined, but because the love story was completely ridiculous and added nothing nor had anything to do with that tragic day. The special effects and action scenes were really good though.

Clueless. Maybe it's just that I like looking at Alicia Silverstone.

[keg in kc]

The 10000 BC thread in the media forum finally brought one to mind: Roland Emmerich masterpiece "Stargate".

I felt dirty buying that dvd for some reason, but I watch it about every 6 months. I just dig that movie for some reason. Ancient egyptian with an alien tie-in does it every time.

[KCChiefsMan]

I kinda like "You got served"

[Starbux37]

Hairspray - Hate to admit I really like this movie.

Galaxy Quest - I own the damned DVD and still will stop to watch it on tv when it comes on. :doh!:

[Bowser]

And let me go on record here - Battlefield Earth WASN'T that bad. It was worse.




:)

[Fairplay]

Im not embarrassed to say i like that movie.

Alicia was freaking hot to look at during that movie.

[keg in kc]

And let me go on record here - Battlefield Earth WASN'T that bad. It was worse.It was so bad, that I gave up on it after 15 minutes. And wondered how I made it that long.

[Bowser]

It was so bad, that I gave up on it after 15 minutes. And wondered how I made it that long.

I suffered longer than that. I made it to where Barry Pepper gave the gun back to Mutant Travolta, and then called it. ****ing brutal.

[sedated]

For some reason I have to watch these if I see them on TV. I wouldn't even really say I "like" them, just that the remote gets put down when they flash on the screen.

Armageddon
Drumline
Tango and Cash

[keg in kc]

For some reason I have to watch these if I see them on TV. I wouldn't even really say I "like" them, just that the remote gets put down when they flash on the screen.Just imagine what kind of movies we'd be talking about if this was a "movies you're embarrased to admit you've watched late at night on hbo/cinemax/showtime/encore when there was nothing else on".

[Sully]

I watched "Crank" last night.
It wasn't great, but it was fun.
I'd watch it again.

[Pitt Gorilla]

I liked A League of Their Own. I know, I'll turn in my Man Card.

[BigVE]

Kung Pow.
The Last Dragon.
Napolean Dymanite.

[pikesome]

And let me go on record here - Battlefield Earth WASN'T that bad. It was worse.

I read the entire book.

It was biblical in heft.

[keg in kc]

Was the book any good?

Throw Under Siege in there for me.




Every guy that isn't queer remembers the girl jumping out the cake seen. That was fantastic.

Every time that movie is mentioned that memory jumps like a diamond on a dunghill.

Agreed. A friend of mine and I had passes for it. We got blotto and went to see it in the theater. Laughed my ass off through the entire thing. We were the only people there who seemed to enjoy it.

[Archie F. Swin]

Napoleon Dynamite
Evolution
Nacho Libre
Drum Line
Love Actually

[MTG#10]

I kinda like "You got served"
Please tell me this is a joke.

[MTG#10]

Napolean Dymanite.

One of my all time favorites.

[ChiefaRoo]

I walked out of Starship Troopers. They ruined a good book by making a bozo fest of a movie.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Point Break is a great flick.

UTAH!! Get me TWO!!

['Hamas' Jenkins]

CB4 and Action Jackson come to mind.

[kaplin42]

Damn I must phail. I like a lot of the movies mentioned.

Love Actually - hilarious
Evolution - hilarious
Tango and Cash - hilarious
Armagedon - hilarious

Thats just on the last page.

How about

50 First Dates - Couldnt stand Drew Barrymore before this movie
The Last Boyscout - hilarious
Army of Darkness - F'ing hilarious
Starship Troopers - Mentioned already, but hilarious
Death to Schmoochy - hilarious

[dilligaf]

Here's two nobody has mentioned yet.

Elf (before Ferrell got completely annoying)
The Man with Two Brains (Steve Martin)

['Hamas' Jenkins]

See, but I'm not even really embarrassed to like Tango and Cash, The Last Boyscout, Road House, Point Break, hell even Freddy got Fingered.

I guess I have the same lack of shame in movies that a chick who does anal gangbangs does for her asshole.

[SCTrojan]

Guilty on the following charges. And some random romantic comedies.

I liked A League of Their Own. I know, I'll turn in my Man Card.

There's no crying in baseball.

I kinda like "You got served"

Gotta admit I'm a sucker for movies from this genre - like Stomp the Yard, and Take the Lead.

"From Dusk till Dawn"

Nothing wrong with gawking at Selma Hayek

Silverado


Classic Western flick

['Hamas' Jenkins]

A League of Their Own is good just for two lines:

1) "Wow! 'Avoid the clap"--Jimmy Dugan."

2) "Did anyone ever tell you that you look like a penis with a hat?"

[Iron Chef]

Flash Gordon

Not necessarily "B" movies, but bad movies that you know are bad but you still like them.... or chick flicks. That was the intent.

I don't think any of my list would ever be critically acclaimed.

Alicia in knee socks and not to mention Stacey Dash:eek:

Actually, Dick Tracy got decent reviews when it was released.

[Demonpenz]

a league of their own has enough baseball moments (being drunk and nailing chicks) and enough baseball in it that i like it

[Buehler445]

Some of these movies aren't bad, but there are a couple I need to add.

Things to do in Denver when you're dead.

Princess Bride.

[beach tribe]

All these movies are good.

[KCinNY]

Flash Gordon
Stick It

Yep. "Flash Gordon" was as silly and campy as a film can be. The actor who played Flash was so bad that they dubbed his voice in the studio weeks before it was released in theaters.

But, God bless it...I watch that movie whenever I come across it on my channel guide.

[Fire Me Boy!]

But pretty widely panned afterward. Pacino got an Oscar nod for that, too.

Yep. It's a great film. It's also pretty prophetic.

Are you sure you're not thinking of The Legend of the Lone Ranger? I know the guy who played the Lone Ranger was dubbed by one of the Keach brothers. I'm pretty sure Sam Jones' voice was used in Flash Gordon-I've seen him in a couple of other movies.

Princess Bride is a classic.

Agreed. Neither a bad film, a critical bomb or a chick flick.

Thats probably my fave bad movie.

[Frazod]

Ive always heard that Sam Jones voiced was dubbed as well for Flash.

Yeah, I like it, too. Not really a bad movie, IMO, as it was intended to be cheesy and silly.

IMDB doesn't mention anything about Jones' voice being dubbed. Normally that sort of thing is listed in the trivia section. The dubber (is that a word?) would be listed in the expanded credits as well.

[Extra Point]

Starship Trooper. Ony because Yes is such a great band, which led me to rent it only because of the title.

And Denise Richards is, well..........

[Frazod]

I love Starship Troopers. LOVE IT. Never read the book so I didn't get offended, as I was with Dune (don't even get me started on David f#cking Lynch's butchery).

I guess that would be my favorite bad movie, but I really don't consider it bad. Just cheesy and silly. With great special effects and DEnise Richards.

[KChiefsQT]

What About Bob
A League of Their Own
and most recently...
The Game Plan

[Deberg_1990]

Yeah, I like it, too. Not really a bad movie, IMO, as it was intended to be cheesy and silly.

Actually, it's Pitt Gorilla who doesn't understand the thread. The thread is titled "Movies you're embarrassed to like", not "bad movies you like".

Sixteen Candles
Kung Pow
Mean Girls

Nothing wrong with those, two hot redheads (Ringwald/Lohan) in their primes. Lohan only looked better in Herbie Fully Loaded. Put that in my list of embarressing movies, and Mean Girls has a beavy of hotties, Mc Adams/ Chebert/ Fey. Kudos!:clap:

Your guilty pleasures... the movies you don't want people to know you like.

Dick Tracy - but I'm proud of that, and not very guilty about it
Battlefield Earth isn't THAT bad
Anything by Ed Wood
10 Things I Hate About You
Just One of the Guys
Opportunity Knocks

"Knocks" rules, very funny, "I am talking, you do not talk when I, am talking!"

Point Break is a great flick.

Are you sure you're not thinking of The Legend of the Lone Ranger? I know the guy who played the Lone Ranger was dubbed by one of the Keach brothers. I'm pretty sure Sam Jones' voice was used in Flash Gordon-I've seen him in a couple of other movies.

Nah...Sam got dubbed by an unknown voice actor.

From wikipedia: "Max von Sydow (Ming) received a good deal of praise for his performance, despite Jones (Gordon) being nominated for a Golden Raspberry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Raspberry) for worst lead actor. According to Empire magazine, Sam J. Jones had troubles of some sort with the director, which resulted in almost all of his dialogue being dubbed by a professional voice actor whose identity is still a mystery."

Those titles should not be embarrasing to you.

Embarrassing to you, would be "typical guy movies"

Am I wrong?

Interesting. I'm surprised that hasn't made it to IMDB.

I love Starship Troopers. LOVE IT. Never read the book so I didn't get offended, as I was with Dune (don't even get me started on David f#cking Lynch's butchery).

I guess that would be my favorite bad movie, but I really don't consider it bad. Just cheesy and silly. With great special effects and DEnise Richards.


You should read the book. One of Heinlein's best. The movie is a steaming pile of shit in comparison. On its own the movie is OK. What they did to that story that RAH wrote...let's just say that I've seen gentler ****ings in snuff films.

[listopencil]

Oh yeah...I happen to love Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and the original Willie Wonka movie.

[chefsos]

Ghost.
Not so much embarrassed by the movie itself, but by the fact that, every time I've seen it, something got in my eye...

[BIG K]

Oh yeah...I happen to love Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and the original Willie Wonka movie.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang rocks!!!!

My little girl and I watch that at least once a month!

For the Love of the Game. It's actually the only DVD I own. I still don't understand why people buy DVD's. It's not like you watch them more than once. I only bought that movie because it was in the 5 dollar bin at Wal-Mart and I was bored.

[Deberg_1990]

For the Love of the Game.

I love the baseball scenes in that flick. Everything else blows...

Fortunately, the baseball scenes make up at least half of the movie.

[Rain Man]

I'm embarrassed that I laugh at parts of the Police Academy movies.

Yeah, but I'm not one of those Harlequinn romance females. I'd prefer to watch any NFL game than Oprah or soap operas any day.

I don't do guy moves because I hate the 'shoot em up' mentality...

Sponge Bob Squarepants ?

I think every one is missing the meaning of embarrassed to like.
I saw only a couple movies listed that I think would fall into that category.
One was Titanic.
Mine is the Wizard of Oz.
I get razzed mercilessly about liking that movie.

[DeepPurple]

In recent years it would be Napolean Dynamite and Donnie Darko. Going back a few years, it would be Titanic, Forrest Gump and The Crying Game. Going much further back it would be The Wizard of Oz and Gone with the Wind. My wife loves GWTW and everytime it's on TV we have to watch it.

You're right. That is the "spirit" of the thread. But everything morphs. The only one in my list that doesn't qualify as "embarrassed to like" is Dick Tracy. Although, I continually have to defend myself when I say I like it.

But... yeah, I'm a little ashamed of the others.
