Hmm, yeah, I'm gonna agree with the guy that nominated Arnold Schwarzenegger for his own category. I actually really liked Last Action Hero, it was a pretty good satire of action movies.
Apart from that, I'm gonna say... 300. It has a lot going against it, but I enjoyed it.

Oh man, how could I forget- Stealth. It's sooo shit in so many ways and yet so many bits of it are properly enjoyable. Like how the 'rogue AI' is the only likeable character apart from Captain Korea (our nickname for the nameless Burly Korean Soldier who disappointingly fails to kill the seemingly invulnerable female lead/love interest), or how the AI didn't actually *need* to get struck by lightning to go renegade because the human pilots and the male lead in particular acted like childish primadonnas who treated their orders like suggestion box entries written in crayon and it was told to follow their lead.
The gloriously over-the-top capabilities of the AI plane (fingerprint scans from 3000 miles away- I don't know where to begin), hilarious undercurrent of Cold War commie-hatred and surprisingly pixel-perfect effects shots (the dam collapse demonstrates model work of a skill level rarely seen outside Japan) just somehow bring you back in any time the detestable characters or ludicrous plot threaten to force you out.

Enjoy.
So glad someone actually posted this. It is the only film I own in the IMDB all-time lowest scores list.[Kira Must Die said:
And the only film I'm certain I've watched more than 10 times, pipping The Matrix and Ocean's Eleven to being my most watched film.
It's fair to say that I like a lot of films which are dimly viewed in the eyes of the critics, but people here will probably love them.
Reading this thread makes me wonder: exactly what qualifies as a 'bad' movie before it can become a 'good-bad' movie?
What I mean is, we like movies that we also think are terrible. But what we really think is that they're good flicks that everyone else hates. But if this isn't the case; if everyone likes the film, what makes it 'terrible'?
Take the crowned king of 'so bad it's good' movies, Plan 9 From Outer Space. What makes it bad before it can be a bad-good movie?

Rat Race..? It's not bad.. It's just not remembered as it rightfully should be.

Michael Bay's The Island...I don't even consider it to be a bad movie but since all the Michael Bay hate, here's a movie that was snuffed out even before it had a chance to grow.
Michael Bay still sucks ass though...=)

Hah! Can't believe I forgot to include the crowned king of all bad acting. Please tell me you've seen at least one episode of Lawman. That show is both physically and mentally painful to watch. Steven seriously has a fetish for himself. Yet... I just can't seem to stop watching.Mornelithe said:
Oh oh oh. I can't recall the movie title but there was a most excellent scene of epic proportions in one of his movies. He is being chased by a scary helicopter with bad guys in it shooting at him. Zoom in to his chubby, squinty-eyed face. He pulls out a pistol - just one pistol. One shot. THE HELICOPTER EXPLODES. EXPLODES YOU GUYS. He walks off slowly. I have never laughed so hard in my life.
