Default Movie guilty pleasures

I've been in an odd streak lately of watching movies that would most likely be considered in the category of ** ahem ** .... guilty pleasures.

Van Helsing

Hidiously overacted with an abysmal script. But, the imagery and Super Hottie Hugh Jackman have me hooked.

the Harryhausen Sinbad movies

Patrick Wayne doing that faggy walk is ....... oy!

Mommie Dearest

-------

Christina: There's a liquor store to the right.
Joan Crawford: I should've know you'd know where to find the boys and the booze.

------

Joan Crawford: Why can't you give me the respect that I'm entitled to? Why can't you treat me like I would be treated by any stranger on the street?
Christina: Because I am NOT one of your fans!!!!!

------

Joan Crawford: Did you scrub the bathroom floor today? DID YOU?
Christina Crawford: Yes, Mommie.
Joan Crawford: Yes, Mommie what?
Christina Crawford: Yes, Mommie Dearest.
Joan Crawford: When I told you to call me that, I wanted you to mean it.

Xanadu - it's wretched, but for some reason I can't turn my eyes away from it. Gene Kelly in a roller disco rink.... 'nuff said.

Blue Crush (saw it again recently and got a good review of how bad it is)
The Faculty
Scream[s]



Thank you for reminding me to put Xanadu and Mommie Dearest in my queue. I haven't seen either.

I have watched Mommie Dearest and 9 to 5 like 10 times this week.

"I'm gonna get that gun and change you from a rooster to a hen with one shot!"

"Christina! Christopher! Damnit! Carol Anne, I have asked you to keep the children quiet today!"

"Don't f*ck with me fellas!"

poor Carol Anne...wherever she is

I have an mp3 that has all the best lines from Mommie Dearest if anyone's interested, let me know.

I am speechless. You MUST watch them...now! Mommie Dearest first, then Xanadu. I love Xanadu...mostly for the very last scene.

My latest guilty pleasure is Jiminy Glick in La La Land.

Mommie Dearest--FAB. Was my late partner's favorite movie and I probably will never be able to watch it again, but oh how I loved saying "put a window where IT OUTTA BE"....and "I'M NOT ONE OF YOUR FAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNSSSSS"

9-5? It's not even a guilty pleasure, but on my top 10 list of greatest movies.

I know. I've heard so much of Mommie Dearest (and read the book) that I feel like I have seen it. I don't like Joan Crawford, either. I do like Faye Dunaway. I thought it was really weird that I hadn't seen it, too. I'm not sure why I haven't.

Probably only because whenever someone asks you what that smell is, you chirp "It's my sun ripened raspberry deoderant!!!"

Mommie Dearest is such a great guilty pleasure. "This ain't my first time at the rodeo!" "QUITTER"!

Romy and Michele is another one. Brainless fun.
