I don't usually like Chick Flicks, but there are a couple that are on my "Guilty Pleasure" list.

1) Clueless
2) 13 Going on 30

Oh, there are so many. Here are some of the true gems:

1.) Someone Like You
2.) Clueless
3.) Where the Heart Is
4.) The Fifth Element
5.) Hannibal

Why is CLUELESS a guilty pleasure? Are you really embarrassed by it? It's not a bad movie.

Agree with 13 Going on 30 (love it!)
Showgirls
Camp
Center Stage (predictable movie, but the dancing is great)
Bring It On
Drumline

No, Clueless is a great movie. But, when I mention that I love that movie around other hetero guys, they give me the strangest look.

Guilty Pleasure for me:

1.) Showgirls
2.) Who's That Girl (Madonna shines in this)
3.) Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (with Oscar winner Helen Hunt and SJP pre-SATC)
4.) Can't Hardly Wait (an all-star cast of tweens who went on to better material, notably Lauren Ambrose.)
5.) CLUE (Eileen Brennan, Madeline Kahn and Leslie Ann Warren-a gay man just can't ask for more) "Flames on the side of my face...heaving breaths....heathing breaths..."


Those are just a few.

Good one, Peach. I would also like to add "Bring it On" to my list. I used to know the entire choreography at the end (both of them)

You actually danced along to the movie?

*mutters*
So pathetic!

Even though I don't need to explain this to you . . . I did not dance while watching the movie. One of my good friends from college and I used to do the choreography for fun while we were backstage during musical practice (She had the music on a cd).

Of films in current release, The Covenant is right up there.

Deliciously bad--bad acting, worse writing, no direction and nice boys in Speedos.

What more do you want from a guilty pleasure? Art?

I love Drumline. Only reason why I joined marching band was because of that movie.


I also love watching alot of independent made movies, especially ones from IFC.

Billy Madison
The Ghost and Mr. Chicken
Spencer's Mountain

[WalkOn]

The ghost and Mr. Chicken!!!! I almost forgot how I much I enjoyed watching that.

My guilty pleasure is the movie version of OH DAD, POOR DAD...

with Roz Russell. Damn that is a odd movie.

Well, if you want a really guilty pleasure, check out Skidoo playing at the MoMA in NYC next month--talk about a cult film...I've never seen it but it was described by Frankie Avalon (who is in it) as "the worst picture ever." I would go, but we'll be out of the country then! Check out the cast list...

Showgirls
Girls Just Want to Have Fun

Drop Dead Gorgeous...I just bought it on DVD

[justagirl2]

Posted: 9/27/06 at 3:45pm

Campfire Stories with Jamie-Lynn Sigler...it's so hysterically bad, and I can feel myself getting dumber everytime I watch it, but it's great for a laugh.

And most of the afore-mentioned.

NEWSIES! (although I am not at all guilty about it.)

It's "lose," not "loose."

Definitely Clue - I love Madeline Kahn. Also Deep Blue Sea. I just can't not watch that movie when it's on TV.

I don't understand the concept of "guilty pleasure". Why feel guilty about liking a movie? Makes no sense to me.

Showgirls
The Oscar

[ShbrtAlley44]

JB, it's when you know the movie is bad and/or stupid but you can't help watching it. I suppose that's a decent definition.

Ooh, Spice World!

Definitely all of the terrible chick flicks, and all the Adam Snadler movies.

Specifically, I'd say...The Island. Everyone says how terrible that movie is. I love it.

Oh, and The Hot Chick. And all of the Scary Movies.
