Movies You Unexplainably Love.

The whole Pirates trilogy, but especially AWE. Super Mario Bros too.
 
Batman and Robin
Legally Blonde
The Covenant
Kindergarden Cop
Elf
Superman Returns
Clueless
The Craft
Legally Blonde is watched by me every time it comes on T.V. which is a lot. Elf is a great heart warming movie and Clueless and The Craft are good films. I also like watching Batman and Robin for some unknown reason.
 
Off the top of my head...

Legend
The Quick and The Dead
The Shadow
The Phantom
The Punisher (1989)
The Rocketeer

The Fifth Element

A Night at the Roxbury

Godzilla - I loathe anythintg Emmerich. But I liked his take on Godzilla, the design of the monster I find it vastly superior to the old Japanese man in a rubber suit with frozen eyes painted on. I liked the mini-Godzillas sequnce and that the guy himself comes back for a last confrontation. I, naturally, don't consider it a good movie. The acting sucks GREAT time, Jean Reno included, but Godzilla was good.

Dick Tracy - Not considered a good movie but I liked it a lot and still do. It is in many ways very close to what Burton did with Batman and you coluld tell that Burton's work had started to influence later comic book movies.

The Alien Factor - cheesey Ed Wood-like movie from 1977 about aliens. I used to watch it as a kid on TV. You can find the whole movie on youtube. It's basically a camera and a bunch of people repeating his lines. What made the movie for me were the aliens themselves: you can tell that for the little budget they had they did the best they could, including a transparehnt stop-motion monster for the finale. And what gave me nightmares forever is the "good" alien shoing his truev face. It is THE most hideous thing I have ever seen. I remember having serious trouble trying to sleep the day I saw it.

The Devil's Rejects -- I just love this film
The Phantom -- A perfect film in my eyes
Popeye- This whole cast is awesome and just great
Buffy the Vampire Slayer- I am one of the few that prefers this to the TV series
 
Movies I like but cant explain why I like them? I'm pretty sure I can explain them all. But some of my favorites are
Pirates of the caribbean movies
Tron legacy
Paul Blart
Remember the titans
 
These movies are much better than guilty pleasures (I would say they are good but not great), but they're all cases where my enjoyment of the movie is greater than the movie's quality, in that they all have flaws I willfully overlook when watching them. That seems to fit the idea of the topic.

-RocknRolla. I think it's a well made movie, but it completely follows the formula of Lock Stock and Snatch with little deviation. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the hell out of it and really want the proposed sequel to be made.
-Hot Rod. Dumb and hilarious. I always stop to watch part (or all) of it when it's on TV.
-Taken. The plot and characters aren't anything new, but seeing Liam Neeson kick ass non-stop for 90 minutes gets me pumped every time.
-Juno. Some of the dialogue already seems dated (and the movie only came out 4 1/2 years ago), but the movie has some great character moments and I laugh at the jokes every time I watch it.

Ah yes. Popeye should be in my list too. I love to see Popeye's universe alive. It's just that and the fact that Robin Williams did a fantastic job giving Popeye a heart and soul. When he gets rejected because he's the noob in town or when he sings to Sweepea. Great.
 
The Last Starfighter
Starchaser: The Legend of Orin
Titan A.E.
 
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End - my favourite of the trilogy. The score is amazing.
Stardust - an underrated and mostly forgotten classic.
Hellboy 2: The Golden Army - much better than the first.
 
Mission Impossible 3
Star Wars prequels more than the originals
 
-Frankenstein's Castle of Freaks
-The Devil's Rejects
-Iron Man 2
-War Horse (Everyone I know hates it, but, I love it. Plus, this is one of the few times that I agree with the professional critics, instead of my friends.)
-Pirates Quadrilogy, especially AWE. Seriously, Keith Richards, Johnny Depp, and Geoffrey Rush in the same film. I would have said the same for Stranger Tides, but my problem with the film is that it is hard on the eyes: whoever handled the coloring timing really ****ed up, because there was too much grey in the film. If that had been fixed, the film would ascend from D+ to a B, because the acting and story is enjoyable.)
-The Matrix Revolutions
 
Here is a list of guilty pleasure movies that I unexplainably love (movies that are probably not great movies, but I enjoy them anyway):
1. Swamp Thing
2. Deep Blue Sea
3. Batman & Robin
4. Alien vs. Predator
5. Meatballs

Mallrats and Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back. They both lack the strong characterization and thematic development of the other View Askew movies, but I think they're really funny.
 
There are nO movies I unexplainably love. If I love a movie, it is because that **** is awesome. Case in point, my wife and I are watching The Monster Squad right now, and if you don't love that movie, you can rot.

I'm rotting as I type this. :woot:
 
Kindergarten Cop

For me, it's got more quotable lines than any other Schwarzenegger film.
