    I like Norbit. No matter how many awards it got for being the worst movie, I still liked it. Same with Jack & Jill.

    Now that's one I would have to just leave at "God awful". I couldn't even get through it the first time.

    Zoolander hardly counts as a guilty pleasure. Everybody loves that movie.

    Now Mystery Men... that's a guilty pleasure.

    I love every Arnold and Sly Stallone movie they've ever made, and almost all of them are stupid with shoddy writing and direction.

    My personal favorites are Total Recall and Tango and Cash.

    I LOVE both expendables movies.

    Swayze movies also approach that pantheon status for me. I love Point Break and Road House.

    Movies that embrace their camp are tough to consider awful though. They have a different purpose and can be brilliant for their audience--which is not the humorless movie critic.

    We should make a separation for the camp classics like Total Recall and the truly awful movies that people love that are not ironically awful.

    Whereas Kubrick's 2001 was awesome as a film, but awful to actually watch in its entirety.

    I also love Robin Hood Prince of Thieves and Waterwold. Those movies are travesties but I've loved them since I was a kid. My friend and I used to watch Waterworld and Hayao Myazaki movies every weekend when we would hang out as children. We also listened to the Cure. This was when we were about 10 years old. We were weird kids.

    If you are listing Swayze movies...another epicly bad but entertaining one has to be Next of Kin.

    And of course....Red Dawn.

    Little Nicky. I know most people hate it, but it might be my favorite Adam Sandler movie. Might have to do with the music I listen to, but I just find the movie hilarious.

    I ****ing loved Waterworld. Robin Hood too for that matter. Yeah, even the Postman. Guess I'm just kinda gay for anything Kevin Costner.

    Great movies.

    I don't know what it is about Arnold and Sly, but I'll watch all their movies and be entertained. Not so with Bruce Willis and Jean Claude Van Damme.

    The Postman?

    That's some dedication. What are your thoughts on the Bodyguard?
