Ok so seeing as how some one already did the other side of the spectrum I figured id ask what movies you like but every one hates
Final Fantasy- Almost every one I know hates this movie.I thought it kicked ass.I didn't think it was that hard to understand.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre- People just don't know a good horror movie now days
Snatch- this movie was cool as hell
The Cell- f**ked up awsome trippy ass movie
Legend-one of the coolest fantasy movies ive seen
The Hills Have Eyes-one of the coolest movies about a cannibalistic family ive ever seen
XXX- I thought Triple X was an awsome movie.I thought it was a great take off of the Bond movies and was actualy I thought funner to watch than most Bond movies.
NASHVILLE - One of the most complex character studies ever filmed. Most people say that it's long and boring.

This is one board that I feel was made for me. My movies are the live action "Guyver" movies.
-the first rule of fat club-
Oh god, I could give a mile long list. But I'll try to condense it. Here goes:
1. Fist of the North Star (Live action) - Yeah, it might not be perfect, but Gary Daniels is the man, even if he might not have been the best choice for Kenshiro.
2. All of Dolph's movies.
3. All of Jean-Claude Van Damme's movies. Except for Desert Heat, even I can't defend this one.
4. All of Seagal's movies.
5. Nearly all of Chuck Norris' movies.
6. XXX. I agree completely with wyckednick's take on this movie. An action movie reminiscent of 80's classics, complete with outrageous action scenes and Vin Diesel as a one man army.)
7. ALL Bond movies, even OHMSS, with George Lazenby. One of the best Bond movies ever that unfairly gets crapped on because Connery wasn't in it. Same goes for Dalton, who was not responsible for the temporary death of the franchise. Roger Moore was great, too. But Pierce will always be my personal favorite.
8. Pumpkinhead. My favorite horror movie of all time. Can't really explain why, I just love the performance that Lance Henriksen gives. You really feel for the guy when things start to go crazy towards the end.
9. Driven. I'll get killed for this one, but sue me, I liked it. Cool and implausible racing scenes, just like I like 'em.
10. All of Stallone and Schwarzenegger's film catalogue.
11. Predator 2. Yeah, I know, this one didn't have Ahnuld, but it did have the god amongst men in it, Gary Busey, and Danny Glover. And it was extremely violent with great action.
That's it for now, I'm sure I'll think of more.
Nick
NIGHT OF THE ZOMBIES. But I definitely know why everyone else hates it.
HOUSE. I watched it with some friends and they all HATED it (mostly for the vietnam flashbacks) but I thought it was an excellent Horror that blended subtle comedy in perfectly. House II was also highly amusing.
XXX.I loved this movie.
Ooh
The Faculty, I loved that movie
and
The Live Action Spawn, the uncut version ios great
Clerks: The Animated Series
I also LOVED Spawn
the road to wellville
Minority Report
Elves with Dan "Grizzley Adams" Hagarty. That move is so f**cked up, I love it.
I do like Zardoz, plus a lot of the Full Moon stuff.
"A.I" (I even like the ending), "Minority Report" (ditto), "Heaven's Gate" (it's lack of any kind of storyline felt soooo refreshing... It's a movie where absolutely nothing happens for almost 4 hours), "Solaris" (Boring? Ha!), "Predator 2", "Strange Days", "Black Rain" (stupid but cool visuals), "City of Ghosts" (Matt Dillon's only directorial effort), "Ali" (who cares if I didn't learn anything about Ali in three hours), JC's "Vampires", JC Van Damme's "Knock Off" and "Double Team" (yes, the one with Dennis Rodman and Mickey Rourke), "White Sands" (decent thriller), "Quills" (Pornographic?! Satire!), "Elmore Leonard's Gold Coast" (decent noir directed by Peter Weller), "True Crime" (people took it as a a thriller, and it is a dark comedy instead), "Boiling Point" (Underrated noir starring Wesley Snipes and Dennis Hopper), and a long, long etc.
Jack Frost. The killer snowman movie. Even on this board people think I'm insane for loving it.
oooh, here is a doozy
I love the Money Train
And for another shock
TITANIC (With Leo)
I also like Titanic.
And Batman Forever.
I think Batman Forever was the best out of all the Batmen movies, but if anyone liked Batman and Robin, they will have to answer to the Jewish Mafia.
I DIDN´T like Batman And Robin.
That's ok Pancho i'm sure a LOT of people think i'm crazy for likeing the american Guyver movies.
-the first rule of fat club-
Does this Guyver guy has ANY relation with MacGuyver?
the first guyver was cool the second one was lame
Hey man, I practically worship Full Moon.
Dungeons & Dragons would definetly be mine.
I don't "love" but I really like SON OF BLOB AKA BEWARE! THE BLOB! .Most people hate it but reading the remarks about it at the IMDB I'm not sure if those people GET the fact that it's SUPPOSED to be funny! The humor is played completely straight-faced like in the AIRPLANE and NAKED GUN movies and I don't think audiences knew what to make of it when it came out twice in the 70's(the second time billed as "The movie J.R. shot!" )
More than one person at the IMDB refers to the sheriff making the same remark over and over again toward the end of the film but they STILL didn't get it! If Leslie Nielsen had played the sheriff maybe it would have sunk in.
Anyway, I give director Larry Hagman extra credit for this effort since it came out LONG before it was de riguer for every horror film to be BOTH a genre piece AND a parody of the genre at the same time.
P.S. I know Stephen King often pretends that MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE was supposed to be bad, but I'm not buying that. If you want to see an INTENTIONAL B-movie check out SON OF BLOB. It accomplishes it's mission PERFECTLY, at first being just bad enough that you settle in delightedly for a real turkey , then it gets outrageous enough to make you go "Oh, come ON! " and then you realize you're being had and the whole thing is a loving send-up of bad horror movies and bad horror movie cliches (DECADES before the self-satisfied SCREAM).
...And I still love the guy who tries to fend off the Blob with a crucifix!
Altman's Popeye. Call me crazy but I've never figured out why that film has such a bad rap. Great casting (Shelly Duvall was BORN to play Olive Oyl), completely unique "look", even some decent original songs.
No! The Guyver has nothing to do with MacGuyver i'm sure. The Guyver was a popluar comic book sereis in japan that had a robot like man killing a bunch of cool monsters, the comic sereis spawned anime movies and minisereis and two amercian live action movies that a ton of people hate. And Macguyver......he's someone with "Guyver" in his name.
-the first rule of fat club-
THE STUPIDS is the first thing to come to my mind. Screw you, I thought it was funny.
I also like MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE quite a bit. Always have.
TROLL 2 because it is so dumb.
TWIN PEAKS: FIRE WALK WITH ME because it is so brilliantly f**ked up. And it points to deeper truths. So it's funny. It's funny and true.
Finally, DEAD MAN. An anti-western that stands alone and is one of the highpoints of American filmmaking in the nineties.
I lot of the movies I like were already mentioned here
D&D and Final Fantasy are at the top of my list
Titan AE is also up there. I don't know why the people I know hate this movie but I thought it was cool as hell.
If you liked Elves, you should love ROBOCHIC -- see Andrew's review. Same writer/director & a lot of the same cast. Enjoy!
