Bad Movies We Love

Postby Honeybee » Wed Nov 24, 2010 6:42 am

The AP put out this list of guilty pleasures:
5 Most Irresistible Guilty Pleasure Movies

All fine and fair, except for Point Break, starring the late Patrick Swayze and directed by Oscar winning director Kathryn Bigelow, which is not a bad movie at all. It's not The Hurt Locker, but it's good.

"Battlefield: Earth."

Seriously, you will not find a more hysterical action-comedy made ... what? It wasn't intended to be a comedy? Feh. Whatever.

I've never seen it, but I hear the hand held camera work actually made some people nauseous. Funny, since Scientology commercials are usually so slick.

Double post, sorry

Everyone seems to agree that the film "Orange County" with Colin Hanks and Jack Black is a bad movie. Except that I love it.

It's the closest thing I've ever seen to my life portrayed onscreen, with me as Colin Hanks. Catherine Harold as his mother - well, I think she based her character on my mother. And the crazy older brother? Check.

Let's Go To Prison

I saw this on Comedy Central within the last year. The cable guide thingy only gave it 2 stars...but I thought it was pretty damn funny and laughed my ass off through the whole thing! :damnfunny

I loved that movie too, Honeybee, LOL.

One which was really bad, but I liked (at least at the time I saw it, which was quite some time ago) was Troll. Hey, it had Julia Louis-Dreyfus being turned into a wood nymph and Sono Bono into some weird little goblin guy... and the main character's name is Harry Potter.

Before "Monsters, Inc" I adored Little Monsters

A bit embarrassing, but just can't help myself.

I love 1970's disaster flicks of all kinds. The cheesier the acting, the more hole-filled the plot and the more terribly-cliched the characters, the better.
