Guilty Pleasure Movies

If the thread title was missing an "i" and read Guilty Pleasure Moves instead this thread would be quite different.

Although I'm not embarrassed to like it (alot), most people consider it a terrible dissapointment.

You do know that the script was originally unrelated to the book, and that they later bought the rights for the cache of the name and barely adapted the script to make it vaugely recognizable to the story?

If you were to pretend not to notice the "i," I doubt anyone would mind. By the way, I haven't deciphered the opening word your avatar is saying, but I think I have the rest figured out.

It really only says what you want it to say, but that's fine by me.

I did not know that. I really should read the book one day.

Super Troopers is excellent. "Smells like sex in here."

I did not know the timeline, but I did know that the only thing related between the book and movie were the names.

The first word she's saying is "touch". There are two words that follow, but my innocent virginal mind can't possibly imagine what it could be.

Katja Kassin in "Constance".

Since Hot Shots somehow got mentioned as a guilty pleasure then I should probably mention

Robin hood - men in tights

We're men ! men in tights, tight tights !

"My pet dog Pongo?"

"Run over by a carriage."

"My goldfish Goldie?"

"Eaten by the cat."

"My cat?!"

"Choked on the goldfish. ... Oh it's good to back isn't it Robin?"

Touch, of course. Well, at least my first guess sort of rhymes with that.

Good song, but dwarfed by Little John's drowning scene.

I enjoyed "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" even though it's a chick flick.

I actually enjoyed "Snakes on a Plane" somewhat, though I don't care to see it a second time. Unless I'm playing a drinking game or something, then maybe.

I loved Clue, the only board game based movie I think I have ever seen. Cheesy but fun.

One movie not yet mentioned is Last Action Hero, which got panned when it came out, but wasn't bad when I saw it again on TV.

I also like The Fifth Element. I love the actor who plays the President - least Presidential looking President EVER.
