Movies you know are awful, but you love anyway.

[Contun]

I enjoyed Waterworld.

 

[Casual Shinji]

Howard The Duck and Hudson Hawk.

I know they're stupid, but so is ping pong; that doesn't mean it's not a boatload of fun.

 

[TheTejs]

Super Mario Bros.
Street Fighter (90's one)
Shoot Em' Up
Kung Pow
&
Some parts of MacGruber

WHO THINKS THAT SHOOT EM' UP IS A BAD MOVIE!?
seriously!?
the main guy puts a carrot through a guys head
also, he has sex while shooting henchmen and ends with "Talk about shooting your load"
WHAT
THE
FUCK IS NOT TO LIKE!?

 

[Hosker]

I can only think of Toy Soldiers, but I'm not sure if that is classed as awful.

 

[Hosker]

if we all like these films, does that still mean theyre bad?

Starship Troopers, utter brilliance, so bad it was good

I think it still counts.

Awesome film.

 

[Iampringles]

The Scary Movie series, they're not too bad, you just don't think about it and it's all cool.

 

[Funkysandwich]

True Lies. It's my favourite bad movie.

 

[ThatStrangeDude]

The Room... "I did not hit her, I did -naahhht- OH HEY MARK!"
'Nuff said.

 

[RIOgreatescapist]

Predators

 

[Porygon-2000]

Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus.

Woeful acting, terrible effects, horribly implausible story, the works.

Worth it for a 100ft shark taking down a PASSENGER AIRLINER, while at ALTITUDE.

Now, I mean, really...

 

[TheArma]

Lets just say that when I want to 'let off some steam' Commando is the movie for the job.

 

[Jezzascmezza]

The Room.
Just observe it's flawed genius:

 

[Arkvoodle]

Revenge of the Fallen.

 

[linwolf]

The Howling sequels. Those movies are awful, but I love them.

 

[Mr.Squishy]

Kung Pow

Kung Pow. That movie is soo friggin stupid, but i can't help but love it.

Kung Pow

Wait, who said kung pow was awful? That movie is genius! Go punch whoever told you guys it was an awful movie.

Also, what do you get when you cross an owl with a bungee cord?

I dunno?

Rocky horror

It took 22 posts (well, 21) for someone to finally mention Rocky Horror?
If it weren't for the cult behind it, that movie would just... suck. I mean, c'mon, watch it by yourself, normally, it's terrible. Yet... somehow... awesome. o_o

Speak for yourself, I love that movie no matter who (or how many) I watch it with. Might have something to do with the kick-ass songs.

 

[shadyh8er]

X-Men Origins: Wolverine. I remember Moviebob saying something about how it got dumbed down to a brainless action movie. Well what were you expecting?

Also liked Doom, like the OP.

I LOVED Resident Evil: Apocalypse.

 

[Marter]

There is a lot because me and my one friend love awful movies. First Battlefield Earth: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xACbVe7o9Rs

Then there is Gigli which led to our catchphrase: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZyZbn5baJk

And last but not least anything by Uwe Boll.

 

[Queen Michael]

One word: Batman. (The 60s Adam West one.)

The American Godzilla movie. It has a stupid plot, plot holes so numerous that they turn the movie into the film equivalent of Swiss cheese, but you know what? I don't care. It has a giant lizard that kills people. I don't need more than that.
