This thread is to post movies that are close to your heart, despite their obvious flaws. Everyone around you may hate it and you may even want to hate it yourself.
I'll start with one I saw pretty recently: Waterworld. Brilliant movie.

I thought summer catch was ok, though i remember being jealous and disliking the baseball kid for the sole reason he was pimping jessica biel in the movie.

"This sure beats Super Mario Bros.!" is my ejaculation catch phrase.

people shit on Armageddon being the worst movie of all time but I think it is truly awesome, however fake it may be
Summer Catch does have Jessica Biel in it but the storyline is pretty retarded and very far-fetched
okay, new movie I liked that I'm embarrassed about: For Love of the Game, the Kevin Costner chick-flick that revolves around a baseball game.
spenda, I also really like How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days for some reason too...

I don't know if I'm embarrassed that I "As Good as it Gets" is one of my favorite movies. Sure, I don't brag about it at the bowling alley or anything.

It's funny I think I could make two lists, one for movies I'm embarrassed about cuz they are chic flicks... but there is also a vein of movies that I realize are just AWFUL (a la Armaggedon (which I like despite how horribly terrible every bit of physics is in that movie))....
I also like (the chic flicks)
10 Things I Hate about You
Love Actually
Mean Girls
Notting Hill
And (the Not Critically excellent, but totally kickass movies)
Roadhouse (i've actually watched this twice in the last week... although it sucks cuz you don't get to see the fun bags on cable.)
Red Dawn (so awesome)
Robocop 2 (Robocop 1 i also like, but it was actually deemed pretty good)
Starship Troopers
I'm sure there are dozens of other "guilty pleasures" that I have with movies. But these are a few...

So you click their picture and then you get their money?

I think Mean Girls is basically a unanimous favorite for all of mankind.

I like a lot of the cartoon/computerized films, but The Little Mermaid is still my favorite.
Also, like How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Steel Magnolia's, Pretty Woman, An Officer and a Gentleman (hehe, just noticed the Julia Roberts to Julia Roberts and Richard Gere to Richard Gere connection there) and I am certainly not ashamed to say I watch Roadhouse because I will ONLY watch it on channels like HBO or Skinemax where I can see the funbags.

Hook. best scene is the food fight imo.
Life as a House. meh.
Armageddon is pretty awful, but i find it entertaining and will watch it.
same goes for What Women Want. same goes for most a lot of crappy hollywood movies. its when they whip out like paul walker that it gets so bad you want to puke in your mouth.

Flomo's right. Anybody liking a movie about drag queens driving across Australia either takes it or severely curious about taking it in the pooper.
Also Princess Bride is pure comedic genius... that's like saying your embarrassed for liking Office Space, or Animal House...
