    Titanic. I've only seen it once but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    The Legend Of Bagger Vance...
    I can look at it, knowingly acknowledge it's sentimental, cheesy, whimsically romantic drivel...
    I can look at all this, know this, and still watch it with a big grin on my face

    Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead. As a 20-something struggling in the recession era job market I can kind of relate to being tempted to make up stuff on the 'oul CV...

    (not that I would EVER admit it to anyone. EVER)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,775 ✭✭✭Spacedog


    Yellowbeard - first movie i ever had on VHS, taped off the tv. would always watch it when there was nothing on.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,163 ✭✭✭yeppydeppy


    Demolition man - I know, it's sad but any time it's on I watch it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 383 ✭✭fullback4glin


    There should be no such thing as a guilty pleasure, if you enjoy a film or a book or a band then you should feel no shame in admitting as such. Cinema like all art is subjective and as such what one finds entertaining is not necessarily what another will. As such it leads to debate and discussion on the film in question and makes the world a far more interesting place to live. Be an awful boring world if we all liked the exact same things.

    No need to be so pedantic, you know what the OP meant!

    Not going to get drawn into an argument but I don't see anything pedantic or wrong with telling someone they should not be ashamed of anything they enjoy be it the Yogi Bear film or the latest Syfy original or Herzog's or Lynch's latest.

    Night of the comet - 1980's sci fi for girls

    I don't think a film that won like a dozen oscars can be considered here can it?

    They Live. Rowdy Roddy Piper's finest hour.

    Even if somebody's favourite film of the year was Your Highness...?

    No one should feel ashamed for liking Your Highness, doesn't stop people wondering how a film which is 90 minutes of dick jokes and a lead who handily winks at the audience every time a joke is made can be rated as superior to films such as Kill List, A Seperation, Elite Squad 2, etc, etc. I know that my enjoyment of Drive Angry may puzzle some people and while it was one of last years most fun films I would never claim that it was anything other than 100 minutes of trashy fun.

    The Brady Bunch Movie. Great cheesy comedy.

    i.e. somewhat of a guilty pleasure.

    No, not if he doesn't feel guilty about it.
