Throw Momma From the Train
Penny Marshall flicks

No one should feel guilty about Throw Momma From the Train...it's a quality film, man. Enjoy!

Yoda 02-27-02 08:24 PM

How DARE you feel guilt over liking Cabin Boy! :)

firegod 02-28-02 12:13 AM

David Letterman's single best performance in a major motion picture!! With the possible exception of Beavis and Butt-head Do America. :)

Enjoy.
At the time I was rushed and just took it out so people wouldn't start complaining about not being able to open it up. I forgot about it, of course, so there you go. :)

Karl, how can you say that A Perfect World is a guilty pleasure?? Can you expand a little bit on that? I consider it a masterpiece that was far more deserving of Oscar consideration than the majority of the other films of that year and one of Clint Eastwood's most engaging films as a director. What is it about it for you that makes it a guilty pleasure?

sadesdrk 02-28-02 12:18 PM

More guilty pleasures:
Encino Man
Clueless
She's All That

Yoda 02-28-02 12:21 PM

I despise She's All That. I despise Freddie Prinze Jr., too. But I do dig Encino Man. I saw it in the theaters when I was around 8 years old...it was hilarious.

spudracer 02-28-02 12:32 PM

I'd say of your guilty pleasures Sadie, She's All That isn't like you. :laugh:

sadesdrk 02-28-02 12:41 PM

Isn't like me? You don't think I would watch such crap? Or are you making some joke that is completely lost on me?:laugh:

Fez Wizardo 02-28-02 12:58 PM

[sarcasm] I can't stop watching "dude, wheres my car?" [/sarcasm]

just kidding.

more seriously I enjoyed 10 things I hate about you - is that normal? what about Southpark: Bigger, Longer, Uncut, I thought that was genuinely hilarious - as a matter of fact I feel like watching it now

Yoda 02-28-02 01:02 PM

I thought 10 Things I Hate About You was pretty good, too. It held my interest. Ditto for Dude, Where's My Car?, which I saw with two teenage friends, and which caused me to laugh my a** off.

Fez Wizardo 02-28-02 01:15 PM

hehehe i thought dude where's my car was criminal!

how did it get made! :)

(hold on ill insert the sarcasm tags into my post :D)

Marcellus 02-28-02 04:02 PM

South Park movie isn't a guily pleasure...............it's sheer brilliance ;)

Fez Wizardo 02-28-02 05:51 PM

mmm another one - charlies angels normally this type of flim i'd compare to wild wild west and absolutely detest but it keeps giving me a cheesy grin damnit

Steve 02-28-02 06:00 PM

How is Clueless a guilty pleasure? It's brilliant. :)

Marcellus 02-28-02 06:01 PM

*sigh*

I will admit that a guilty pleasure is Scary Movie.
I usually hate those cliched teen movies........but I laffed my *** off :laugh:

Monkeypunch 02-28-02 11:53 PM

I totally loved "Howard The Duck." Top that....if you dare!

firegod 03-01-02 12:16 AM

It's a guilty pleasure if anyone knows me. I typically do not like what I call "life-affirming" generic Hollywood films. These movies are usually too fake for me to enjoy.

A Perfect World was kinda like that, kind of cheesy. But it was charming and I just enjoyed it. I will say this- and I will get a lot of heat for this- I enjoy Kevin Costner more than I do Kevin Spacey or John Travolta. Those guys just nauseate me for some reason. Way overrated, too.
