Running Man, knew there was another. Good call. Creepshow is another.
Unlike the rest of you, I have no problem turning off Conan.

If we include Running Man (as we should), can we throw Total Recall a bone?
Scots Taffer on 19/1/2011 at 14:22
No, Total Recall is just good. :cool:

It comes down to how you're interpreting "bad" is all my point. I was taking it mostly as "running on grist", which is different from actually "bad" as in poorly made or just plain bad.
Why is grist "bad?"
"Bad" was defined in the original post as "films that you know are shit yet you can't help watching, no matter what." Throwing in genre/pulp films that are actually good just pollutes the thread. Stand up for the actual garbage you like!
For example, your embarrassingly misguided definition of bad could easily contain Oscar winners like the Lord of the Rings movies, which I like. Which
everyone likes.
But want to know one unforgivable piece of cinematic excrement that was beyond redemption and yet utterly enjoyable according to a certain Uncle Stitch?

Actually, my point is that the opinion
isn't dissenting.
Aw crud, sorry. Didn't get that. The exam period is driving me insane.

I don't think it's bad, hence the quotes. It's fun.
You could say it's "bad" in the sense of "Oh you're so bad" wink, wink.
You can also say, as with your Rotten Tomatoes point, many of these lists are of actually quite "good" movies.
Movies "good" for their grist.
Edit: Uh, lol, too easy to get twisted in an argument when you're debating what's bad, what's "bad", what's "good", and what's good. So I have to change my reply here.
Ok, your point here is good movies pollute the thread, stand for real garbage you like. I was making the point that what's really "bad" is so debateable that we may as well just change the criteria to "movies we love for their grist" ... since at least then they all have the "Oh you're so bad" "bad" in them -- though whether they're bad or good for that reason itself is debateable, or is that "bad" or "good"... good grief...

THE DEFINITION OF "BAD" WAS IN THE ORIGINAL POST
SERIOUSLY

IT'S A UNIX SYSTEM
YOU KNOW THIS
As for your opinion of LotR, dear god do I not give anything resembling a fuck
Edit: but I still love you demagogue :)

I'm sensing something here. It's 2011. We're discussing movies that are bad or good or so inarguably bad that they're actually good because that's the way the circle closes.
I can see it.
It's coming.
