Yeah,
I Love Trouble is pretty bad too. I don't know how you could like it either. What is
WRONG with you.
But seriously, what do you like about
I Love Trouble and
Out on a Limb. Don't just confess in a list, try to explain yourself.
Black Sheep is "fairly popular" because it has a fan base, namely Farley & Spade fans and those who like dumb gross-out comedies. It also made about $32-million in 1996, which is almost exactly what
Tommy Boy made the year before. It didn't win any Oscars, but I don't think it's an off-the-charts bad movie, no, at least not substantially any worse than
Tommy Boy critically or finacially, or any Adam Sandler movie artistically. I don't like any of those movies myself, but I don't see singling out
Black Sheep from the rest of the pack.
I said "if
you want to" because you seemed then, and again now, to be critical of my asessments of the choices in general, not just yours specifically. If you personally would have let the
Titanic mention slide, fine. You agree with me on that one, but not on
Black Sheep. Great.
I don't think the first page of this posts many people had a handle on what a "guilty pleasure" really is. Yes, of course that's from my understanding of the term and how it was being used in this thread. And no, you don't have to listen to me or agree with me, as always. I would think that goes without saying, but if you want to try a little sarcasm and get defensive and argue about it, we can do that too. I'm game either way.
I'm not trying to "run" the discussion, I'm trying to get us all to agree on what it is we're looking for. I still think these should be movies you are truly embrassed to admit to liking in mixed company. If you don't have any of those, you don't have any. No big deal.
