Just found Reign Of Fire on the HDR.

Quality way to end the week.

Excalibur. Dated 70s (although 1981) but kinda memorable.

Love Excalibur. Nothing quite like it. Exhilarating mix of sexuality, brutality and hippy mysticism. Nicol Williamson's Merlin is an amazing, if knowingly OTT, creation.

That's not a guilty pleasure. It's a great film.

Hmmmnnn.

I wonder if Peter Jackson or his CGI team were fans of Reign Of Fire? Seem to be some similarities in dragon design...

I love the fast and furious films. But most especially i love Tokyo Drift, the one that not even fast and furious fans like.

Stunning, stunning film.. No guilt there.

The best movie ever made about the Arthurian legend by far.

Footloose and it’s even better sequel; Tremors.

Point Break; Vaya con Dias Bra.

My mate provided a couple of the military vehicles for Reign of Fire, and did the same for Children of Men about that time too...

Again, not a guilty pleasure, Tremors is a brilliant film.

Got to admit, I love a bit of Titanic 🤐

Con-Air
The Rock

I draw the line at those when it comes to Cage-related films

Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves just for Rickman.

Princess Bride does not belong here, another classic/brilliant film.
I'm with Wallop though, and am ashamed, but she's fit has ****

Oi, Bill and Ted is just a great movie full stop. No guilt needed. 😄

Pitch Perfect 2 for me. Tv was on in the background while I was working on my laptop. I couldn’t be bothered to change the channel when it came on and ended up enjoying it. Might even pop along to an acapela fight gig sometime.

For me it is films I saw with my kids when they were growing up. So Stardust particularly for a cross dressing Robert de Niro and Zathura which, whilst all rather predictable, my kids & I loved. We saw it several times at the cinema.
Oh and Princess Bride is a nailed on classic as is Ferris Bueller. No guilt there at all.

Robocop!

And Flash Gordon. But not sure if that requires guilt.

Too many good films listed here, no need to be guilty about princess bride, predator or 5th element.

Fast & furious tho....😮

Anyway mine is a film about a simple chef

Pearl Harbour. It’s awful but I am quite happy to watch it whenever it’s on tv.

Judge Dredd the Stallone version. Terrible in many ways, but much closer in looks to the comic than the, admittedly superior, Urban one.

Pacific Rim? Cant decide if it should be in here or not. But both of them are very entertaining 😂

I feel no guilt for loving all of the Fast & Furious films. Even Tokyo Drift.

Pitch Black. Reign of Fire is tosh, but entertaining tosh.

On deadly ground

Just for the hand slapping stop beating on the indigenous alcoholic native monologue scene.

And cane in spray tan.

Perfection

I have to admit to really enjoying a good corny teenage angst film, things like pitch perfect, street dance, high school musical etc. My favourite by a mile though is 10 things I hate about you. Must have seen i half a dozen times.

Any disaster or giant animal movie. They’re all absolutely shit and predictable. The best part is playing the “who’s going to die” game. Although I’ve noticed a lot of newer ones (The Meg, I’m looking at you) don’t kill off many cast members.

This thread seems to have more genuinely good films listed than it does actual bad ones.

Watched Dumb and Dumber with the kids last night.

Unsure if there was too much guilt on my part...

Loved every minute of it.

Excellent film.
