Diomedes

she was admittedly pretty farging hot.

in related news, while house sitting this week I've watched like six episodes of The Cosby Show and loved every second of it.  What a great show that was.  Got stupid towards the end of it's life cycle with the new babies and all that shtein, but the episodes I saw were classic earlier stuff.  Cosby is just hiliarious...and his supporting cast did a good job for the most part.  Remember Rudy's friend, the little fat white kid?  Ha!!  What a great show.

4. Total Recall
5. Blade trilogy
6. Hot Pursuit
7. Big Trouble in Little China
8. Underworld

Top Gun should probably be on every Guilty Pleasures list.  It's up there with Die Hard for "if it's on, you watch it." 

shtein, I forgot Ferris Beuller's Day Off.

Bah! I totally forgot about PCU. That easily bumps The Breakfast Club off of my list.

Almost every movie on my list has been mentioned, except one of my guilty pleasure movies -- I can't not watch Rock Star if it's on.

Another good list but I would argue that some of those aren't really guilty pleasures. Specifically Shaun/Dawn of the Dead, The Hills Have Eyes and True Romance. Those four stand up on their own as outstanding movies.

I can't believe I forgot to include Ace Ventura: Pet Detective on my guilty pleasures list.

Also - PCU & Airplane have to be included as well.

Wingspan

yeah...those 4 arent guilty pleasures as much as...I like them, and I dont care who doesnt kind of thing. Meh.

Also, I own Alien vs. Predator. In fact I'd rather watch that than Alien 3 or Predator 2.
