10. Dumb and Dumber, I'm ashamed and yet I can't stop laughing.
Don't be ashamed to love great slapstick comedy!
As others have mentioned, I try not to be ashamed of any movies that I like, so I will try to give a list of movies that either a) cause friends to mock me, b) cause enemies to mock me, or c) cause mockingbirds to mock me.
10.
Coyote Ugly -- Okay, honestly, I don't like this movie. It's really, really awful.
BUT the actresses show great talent, and I have to stand up and applaud them for it.
9.
Wrongfully Accused -- Leslie Neilsen is a funny man. This is one of his worst movies, but it holds a few big belly laughs for me. I try to watch it once every couple of years...just so my belly can laugh.
8.
The Legend of Boggy Creek -- It's the '70s version of
The Blair Witch Project. If you've seen my short
"Magnamameous Bark and Gigante Chupycabras" you might have caught the small reference when Bob first arrives on seen.
7.
The Rock -- The only Michael Bay movie I can stomach. Sean Connery is great when he chews scenery.
6.
Beach Babes From Beyond -- Honestly, I've only seen this movie once. But it holds a sweet spot in my heart, because...well, let me tell the story. When I was in college, I opened an acount at a local video store. Stupidly I put my younger brother on the account. Well, one night after church, he and my mom decided that they'd like to see a movie. They stopped at the stopre and were surprised to hear of the late fee for
Beach Babes From Beyond. When my mom confronted me, I denied, denied, denied - I still do to this day. I can't remember the movie, but I remember the circumstances surrounding it. By the way, if you happen to know my mother, I better never find out that you told her this story...I will continue to deny.
5.
Ernest Saves Christmas -- To me it's a classic Christmas movie, but sometimes people look at me funny when I mention it.
4.
Zoolander -- I know it's dumb. But the guy is really, really, really ridiculously good looking.
3.
The Tigger Movie -- I love movies that make me feel young. All the Pixar movies do that, but everyone's cool with me liking Pixar. But when I mention this tiggeriffic film, some folks throw honey at me (which is actually a commendable accomplishment).
2.
Muppets From Space -- I'm sorry, but I am a Gonzo fan. How could I not like a movie that explains just what the heck he is.
1.
Urban Legends -- Goat will never let me live down the fact that I called this movie the best slasher flick I'd ever seen. But in my defense, there was a good looking girl grabbing onto me throughout the film. I've never had that happen in another slasher flick (or any other genre for that matter), so it remains the best sl;asher flick I have ever seen.
