Top 10 Movies that I Enjoyed, but am ashamed to admit

By  | 

So, being a movie geek one would assume I have impeccable taste in movies. Well, thats not always the case. Here is a top 10 list of movies that, if having a conversation with a fellow movie geek, I would be ashamed to admit that I am a fan of. My top 10 guilty pleasures if you will:

10. Gigli

We all know about this movie..rated one of the worst movies ever created. The end of the Bennifer craze, and Ben Affleck’s acting career. Rotten Tomatoes gave this movie a 6% fresh rating. Ouch! Despite all of the negative-ness around the movie. I for some reason enjoyed it..maybe its because everyone else bashed it and hated on it..maybe I just wanted to find something good about it..i dont know. But i did like it..thus i am ashamed.

09. Road House 2: Last Call

Some of you may be thinking, wow I didnt know Patrick Swayze did a sequel to this movie..well he didnt. This movie was released in 2006, and was direct to dvd(that shouldnt surprise you). Johnathon Schaech stars as Shane Tanner son of legendary cooler Dalton(Swayze in the original). He sets out to avenge the death of his father(this ruined any possible chances Swayze had to reprise the role) and goes to a bar to help clean it up ala his dad’s style. Sad I know, but it also had Jake Busey in it, and I really liked it. Sorry about the picture…I couldnt find a picture from road house 2.

08. Something’s gotta give

I actually got dragged to see this movie in theaters(the things we will do to have sex with the ladies), and ended up actually enjoying it. Amanda Peet was my crush object for a while..but seeing Diane Keaton naked..that did it for me boys. Jack Nicholsen was great in this role as well..the bachelor that refuses to settle down even though he is 104(not really). Great movie..sadly i liked it.

07. Catch and Release

I dont know that I am really “ashamed” of this movie, but it is more along the lines of chick-flickish. However it has my boys Kevin Smith, and Timmy Olyphant in it, thus making it an instant favorite. Jennifer Garner isnt half bad either.

06. National Lampoon’s Adam and Eve

Ok, so the National Lampoon moniker is pretty much played out and done. For some reason they sold the rights to their name to an indie company called “National Lampoon Inc.” that is putting out a bunch of deadbeat, lousy movies direct to dvd movies. Well this one, for all of its bad acting..was actually really good. It starred Cameron Douglas(Son of Michael Douglas) as Adam and Emmanuelle Chriqui as Eve. Emmanuelle went on to do other movies like ‘In the Mix’ and had a guest spot as Erics girlfriend Sloan on ‘Entourage’. Adam is a college dude that meets Eve and tries to hook up with her. Turns out she is a virgin and he is just spinning his wheels when trying to sleep with her. Check it out..i enjoyed it..thus i am ashamed.

05. Footloose

Although I was 1 when this movie came out, when I was old enough to start watching movies, this one played over and over in my house. Kevin Bacon, John Lithgow and a skinny Chris Penn. Damn this movie was heart warming. You can watch it without smiling a couple of times, especially when they finally get to have the dance..oops sorry if I ruined it for you.

04. Youngblood

This is a CLASSIC. One of the best hockey movies that I have ever seen..and you have a young Rob Lowe, Patrick Swayze, Keanu Reeves. There was the first MILF action, and nude scene I ever remembering in a movie, and this really got me into hockey as a kid. Plus you get this tagline “The ice…the fire…the fight…to be the best!” Come on..you cant beat that shit man.

03. Mean Girls

Lets take a trip back in time..back before Lindsey Lohan was skanky, and before Rachael Mcadams established herself as an up and coming female actress, before Mrs Lohan released an album.. That time would be 2004. Damn that was way back there! Tina Fey wrote and was one of the stars of the movie and I have to say..I loved it.

02. A Walk to Remember

This movie really gets me. Its sad, and I am manly enough to admit I cry at the end! boo.

Mandy Moore in her first major starring role..and teen heart throb Shane West..oh so dreamy!(weird)

01. Masters of the Universe

This is a must have for me. When I was a kid I was completely obsessed with everything that had to do with He-Man. My aunt took me to see this movie about 5 times in theaters, and I just remember crying at the end because I didnt want the movie to end. Now fast forward to 2008, I am now 25 and I still cry at the end! Im kidding(not really). Anyways, this movie rocked in the 80’s. Dolph Lundgren back before he was doing direct to dvd snoozers, and a young Courtney Cox before she even knew what friends were. This is classiclly bad, but I still love it!
