OK I'm a secret TCM addict. It started by watching old horror films on there around Holloween 4 or 5 years ago. Then I startrd DVRing the essentials (movies that they highlight on saterday evenings) now I'm hooked. Anything Marlon Brando from early in his career is generally amazing. If you haven't seen "On the Water Front" check it out Brando's performance in it is powerful and Eva Marie Saint is perfect in her role. He also pulls off Sky Masterson in "Guys and Dolls" were he sings and dances.
"The Lady Eve" is probably my biggest guilty pleasure right now. Barbara Stanwyck plays Henry Fonda twice and he just can't help himself. Of course she falls for him and they get together in the end. SHAMEFUL I know but I just can't look away

Wally...I love Steel Magnolias too (and I typically HATE chick flicks). I like Terms of Endearment as well.
My biggest guilty pleasure movie would have to be Splash though. I don't care what any of you say...I still love it. That movie made me want to be a mermaid for like 5 years.

I haven't seen Splash since it first came out. That might be one I have to revisit.

Yeah, when I was younger, I remember giving it three thumbs up.

I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have six fingers on your right hand?
Oh wait. You mean your penis don't you? Grody Jody.
I usually can't stand Kevin Costner films, if for no other reason than because he's in them. But for some reason I can't explain, I actually loved Tin Cup, which isn't even one of his "better" films.

I'm going to throw out two... yes count 'em TWO... Patrick Swayze flicks.
I always loved the movie "Point Break" starring Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves (even though he's a terrible actor). That movie seemed so cool to me back in the day. It had surfing, skateboarding, sky-diving (which the movie inspired me to try), a love triangle, suspense, action, and it even had Anthony Kiedis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Lori Petty (who I found to be quite hot! ). I really liked the band Ratt as well and, after a few terrible albums, cut one of their best songs (IMHO) for the soundtrack called "Nobody Rides For Free". Great film!
The second Swayze movie is "Roadhouse". It also starred Sam Elliot (who kicks ass!) and super hottie Kelly Lynch. It had one of my favorite pro wrestlers in it... Terry Funk, albeit in a bit role. It's a cheesy, beer-soaked, action/love story (throat ripping? ), but cool nonetheless.

I thought point break was really cool as well when I was a kid. I have n ot seen it in probably 12 years. Roadhouse cracks me up, it is entertaining though and my brother always watches it when its on.
Patrick certainly had the most feathered mullet of all time.

I can't be the only one who loved Flash Gordon. Sci-fi with music by Queen. What's not to love?

You can't love a bad movie until you love Kiss Meets Phantom of the Park. Ace was so fucked up when they filmed this that they had to dub him lol.
Oh why oh why couldn't MST3K have had enough money to do this one?!?!?!?!

I know right! Or at least Rifftrax could do it. I mean, they are able to do blockbusters like Titanic, Twilight and all the Star Wars. Are you telling me they can't find the time to do a gem like Phantom? Psshhaw.
Best Rifftrax ever though (and another guilty pleasure) is The Star Wars Holiday Special.
