    I love crappy/hokey sci-fi movies like 2012, Day after tomorrow, Crocidilla vs Giant python etc....  Oh and sappy romances that make me cry...

    I also love any movie with Adam Sandler.  (Just finished watching Wedding Singer)

    So what do you like?

    This is for you then @Thefinder

    I'm a giant Scifi nerd, so anything related I'm going to love, watched Firefly  63 times while deployed.
    @-) also Stanley Kubrick movies are my bane.

    Oh I am crying  =))  I love that scene @FoulMouthedSailor  Thanks for showing it to me.  I thought the Maury Povich clip on the side was hilarious too.

    You guys are cute. like it's a bad thing to love firefly (or serenity!) @foulmouthedsailor

    I watch things like... Kill Bill ... or Dogma... Princess Bride... My Best Friends Wedding... 10 Things I Hate About You

    at least I have some variety?

    But I'm with @TheFinder Kevin Smith is a GOD. Did you see his tv show? I'm not sure it's still on. it's about the comic book store he owns? sadly i found it dull and annoying.
    Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. What do we do? We swim, swim.

    @Luvlyssa Clerks was his best series, animated one I mean. Movies were good too, except he failed every one on Jersey Girl.

    I think I am going to try Firefly @foulmouthedsailor. It has always been my secret ambition to colonize on another planet. I wouldn't do well in space though for real, I'm totally agoraphobic.

    I am kind of addicted to Quentin Tarantino films.

    I also love this one weird-ass, disturbing, freaky movie that pretty much everyone I know HATES called Freeway 2; Confessions of a Trickbaby.  Not to be confused with the movie "Freeway" with Reese Witherspoon (though it was billed as a sequel of sorts, it's pretty much universally hated whereas the Reese one is adored).

    Oh, and I have seen Gone With the Wind probably 50 times, starting when I was a little kid.  Even saw it in an old theater in Austin, Tx, at some sort of anniversary showing.  My Grandmother got me started on that film and it just never stopped even though I sometimes cringe watching it now, I still have it pretty much 100% memorized line for line.

    Also Blue Velvet because I was a Dennis Hopper fanatic from the time I was 17 or so.

    My Star Wars movies - I have every version of them issued, Vhs, 10 year edition, new xtra effects added ones,  And my fave the All 6 movies edition.

    I am crushed though, just found out that Mark Hamill is 60!  60!!  He wasn't supposed to get old was he??

    @canadamom, I used to love Star Wars (I was 7 when the first one came out and blew everyone's mind) but I'm afraid George Lucas lost me at Jar-Jar Binks. It was all downhill from there.

    @fatchickonabike - I am not sure wth he was thinking with Jar-Jar but mercifully he is minimized in the next 2 movies.  I don't understand why he doesn't just CGI him OUT like he CGI'd IN so many other creatures.

    Okay so now that i have my two hands to type i can do this properly.

    So like i said.   All John Huges movies for the eternal teen in me.  Kevin Smith work. 

    OMG Eveyrthing Josh Weedon. Dr. Horrible anyone ? Firefly and Serenity at the top. Then Farscape. I think i watched the whole thing 4 times. 

    Do anyone love mob related stuff ?  If you can get your hands on the french canadian series (who was translated in english) Omertha.  You will LOVE it. 

    Watches stargate for a few years. Then life got in the way.  BF have all the seasons in a boxe.   I am sure I will think of more.  I just need to go browse my dvd collection downstairs.

    Oh anything remotly mediaval :  Merlin, Dragonheart, Rob Roy   stuff like that. 
    It is for me to know and you to dot dot dot.

    @foulmouthedsailor, Yay, I have never met anyone else who watched the Clerks cartoon.  Makes me want a Discreeto Burrito, LOL!!  As a fellow military member, you know it's ALL about the dick and fart jokes.

    I like all Kevin Smith's stuff but I am a maniac for anything by Tim Burton.  I love dark, creepy shit.  There is a 2 day monthly window where I'm receptive to chick flicks.  Hope Floats get me every time, OMG.
    I also really like disaster movies, like Dante's Peak, Volcano, stuff like that.  End of the world stuff.

    Yeah, I'm a Firefly & Serenity fan too, I like SciFi.  But if we're going on "guilty" pleasure movies it has to be The Prince and Me...it's dumb, it's sappy, it's romantic...and I'm NOT a chick flick movie gal either.  And kids movies, I love most disney movies..

    And of course, being Sicilian, The Godfather...

    I don't really have a genre that I like, though I'm not a big fan of slasher movies.  I've never seen Halloween, the chuckie ones, nothing like that, more of a psychological thriller fan.

    I like big disaster flicks like Armageddon, Independence Day, Day After Tomorrow, etc. 

    80s movies like Footloose, Top Gun, Dirty Dancing.  I love getting caught up in the memories from growing up in the 80s.

    My all-time favorite movie doesn't fit into either of the above, though:  Reese Witherspoon's first movie, The Man in The Moon.  It's such a sweet, tragic movie, and I can't help but sit and watch whenever it comes on.  And, of course, cry...

    Natural disaster movies - The Day After Tomorrow, Volcano, and the old disaster movies like Towering Inferno and original Poseidon Adventure. 

    I also watch 8 Mile every time it's on VH1.

    @PallasAthene I like the Firefly series and Serenity movie because it was a mix of Scifi and old school western movies, plus all the actors had a good chemistry and I think it was well written.
    I also have two book cases full of Scifi and fantasy Scifi books, moving them was a bitch!

    @French_mom I'm just sad it was cancelled after one season, and Farscape was awesome as well.

    @Bombkitty I'll still laugh at dick and fart jokes when I'm 100 years old. I didn't know about them till my buddy showed them to me, instant love

    @doesmyasslookbig:  ooooo, you hit on my all time favorite movie, Top Gun, and NOT because Tom Cruise looks hot in a flight suit, thought that certainly didn't hurt.  I'm all about the flying the jets!

    I was on a date when I saw it the first time, my date was completely ignored...

    Romantic comedies are my weak spot. I've watched Love Actually seriously over 1000 times.
    You've Got Mail, The Holiday, The Proposal, Definitely,Maybe, The Love Letter, I.Q....sucker for all of them. LOL

    And Disney/kid movies. Love those, too.
    I'm as sexy as a burp mid-kiss. Watch out!
