Movies that you know to be objectively awful, but you like them anyway

I think Zollander is kind of brilliant actually.

I've watched The A Team movie a bunch of times over the past few months. I can't explain why.

A team came to mind for me. Horrible movie.... yet..... so..... damn horrible.

I take issue with the labeling of certain movies as objectively awful. Zoolander, Happy Gilmore, and the like are certainly dumb movies but they're funny and well-liked because they are dumb by design. Movies that try hard for something and fail abjectly at it are better candidates.

Commando.

Also, robocop

[Pick6]

Expendables and Expendables 2. Then again they were made to be the 80s action over-the-top type awful film.

Wonderfully awful!

[sacase]

Pluto Nash

Happy Gilmore and Rickey Bobby. There's no reason why I should enjoy either film, but damn it I do. I will bust a gut every time I see it.

The Goodbye Girl is probably another one. I saw it a few months ago on TCM for the first time. I usually hate rom coms but this one...this one had me hook, line and sinker and I hate myself for it.

Shoot 'Em Up
True Lies
Dodgeball

Many those already mentioned... also

"They Live"

I'm gonna get you sucka


and

the Kentucky Fried Movie

Most people would say these movies are bad, but I like them anyway

1. DC Cab
2. Popeye
3. Superman III

[The Evil Genius]

Even though it's a parody and supposed to be awful, if you were to objectively look at it - The Rocky Horror Picture Show should be included on this list.

The fact that 30+ years later it's still in the theaters, shows the stupidity (or genius) of the movie.

I really like the A-Team movie (aside from the free falling tank scene) - even knowing that I shouldn't.

Another adaptation, that get's no respect, is the Get Smart movie.

Return of the Jedi and Back to the Future 3 are a couple of movies I've wanted to stand up for recently. They aren't awful, but they catch a lot of flack from fans of the trilogies. Think it's undeserving, think they are both incredible films. I'm of the opinion that the last 30 minutes of ROTJ is the best 30 minute chunk in all of Star Wars. Hoth Battle is my personal favorite, but the end of ROTJ is incredibly well done. Of course, I was never bothered by the Ewoks.

As for Back to the Future 3, I friggin' love that movie. More than 2 and a little less than the original. Don't know why people discredit it, was it simply 'too much' Back to the Future?

[MontanaSkins]

A lot of good ones so far. I have a couple of really good ones(or bad, whatever we are going for here)

Original Karate Kid and KK II
Over the Top

I thought they were awesome when I was a kid and just never stopped liking them even though I should know better.
