Movies you're ashamed you own...

[SorryGrateful]

Posted: 9/21/05 at 10:21am

...but aren't ashamed enough to give them up and stop loving them.

1.) Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
2.) The Hot Spot (starring Don Johnson, enough said)
3.) Van Helsing
4.) Purple Rain

I feel cleansed.

I don't really feel ashamed to own any of my movies, but some of the ones that people always snicker at are:

Glitter
Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo
Honey
You Got Served
Poison Ivy

Hmmm....I gotta go with the ones that give away my penchant for cheesy teen movies and the ones that are just plain BAD.

1.) What A Girl Wants (I was only in it for Colin Firth in leather pants.)
2.) A couple movies with Anne Hathaway
3.) Far From Home (But it's Anthony Rapp!)
4.) Win A Date With Tad Hamilton
5.) Rags to Riches (The version with the singing orphans)
6.) All remnants of my crush on Freddie Prinze Jr.

I was hoping you'd show up, katygrace. But, frankly, I'd have to put down all your movies.

*Sees Patronus' list*
*snickers*

I don't tend to buy movies that I don't think are really good, but I have one that I am ashamed of:
Days of Thunder

Alas, my crush on Kidman goes way back.

SG, you b*tch-cow! You're getting the spanking of your life when I get home tonight! And then I'm gonna make you watch Clash of the Titans! Revenge will be mine! Mwuahahahahahahahaah!

The real punishment would be to make me watch Simply Irresistible. That movie gave me cavities.

Ha, thanks a lot SP78. :-P

I got into DVD back when it first came out and you could get discs dirt cheap online. On top of that, my wife used to work in the corporate office for a major music/video retailer and we used to get free stuff all the time.

I can honestly say I didn't pay for any of the things on that list.








(well, maybe Glitter)

All the Planet of the Apes movies (the original series) and all of the Planet of the Apes TV show.

I also have every minute of Star Trek, including the animated series, on DVD.

I'd have to go with Vin Diesel's Magnum opus X.....still trying to figure out why I own that.

[smartpenguin78]

Posted: 9/21/05 at 10:47am

SP78, I almost didn't realize that was me.

Now admit it Patronus, Breakin 2 is one of the greatest film acheivements of our time.
Glitter is untouchable.

Katygrace, I get a cornball kick out of Clash of the Titans, but Simply Irresistible, ugh.
But it sounds as though you and SG need private time.

[Patronus]

Posted: 9/21/05 at 10:49am

Breakin' 2 is really a cinematic dream come true. So much more raw and emotional honest than Breakin'.

Ooooh, I just recently got The Garbage Pail Kids movie.

I guess I could let you choose your own poison. And since I know every song in that movie, you can also listen to me singing along. Yeah, mock me again.

Penguin- Isn't it sad the movies you'll buy simply because you have a crush on one of the actors? Inevitably they'll do a totally crappy project and you're stuck owning something you wouldn't even watch if you were drunk.

I have a secret stash of movies that I don't want people to see. I have mostly award-winning films with tremendous acting and beautiful scripts and plots. I also have:

-Dude, Where's My Car
-Glitter
-From Justin to Kelly
-Jackass: The Movie

I know, they're all awful, but...a boy's gotta have fun sometimes!

[smartpenguin78]

LOL Patronus, that was a masterpiece. Electric Boogaloo is the rare sequel that blows the socks of the original.

Katygrace, I know that pain all too well. At least I can get really drunk and try to watch the crap, and still think they are pretty.

I'm not so much ashamed that I own Divine Madness and The Rose, I just get sick of explaining why I own them to everyone who browses my DVD's for the first time.

Kissing Jessica Stein

I also own everything Cher ever made, including Faithful, Chastity, Good Times, The Withches of Eastwick and Stuck on You :/

I know what you mean, SP. And you can always watch them just to make fun of them a la Mystery Science Theater 3000.

[WonderBoy]

Posted: 9/21/05 at 11:15am

I think the only movie I own that I am ashamed to have is
VISIONS OF SUGAR PLUMS

[SorryGrateful]

Posted: 9/21/05 at 11:32am

Wonderboy! Um, wow.

[camerangel]

Posted: 9/21/05 at 11:43am

I own Sgt. Peppers lonely hearts club badn.. How shameful is that.. The funnier part is that someone actually borrowed it from me.. It's such a bad movie that it's funny.. And alcohol helps..

[SorryGrateful]

Posted: 9/21/05 at 12:15pm

I haven't seen that one, camera, so I can place no judgments. But doesn't the fact that it's The Beatles redeem it and, therefore, maybe make it avant garde or at least vaguely cool? Again, I haven't seen it, so I could be way off here.
