3:10 to Yuma.

Robin Hood with Russel Crowe.

Inglorious Bastards - Which I really don't understand. I thought it was fantastic, but the majority of my friends are the typical douchebag jocks that can't watch intelligent movies.
I do like Inglourious bastards and everyone else I know does too... So maybe your friends are the weird ones XD

Wow now that's just sad, picking on films because they actually won something, (I'm guessing that's why your group of friends don't like them?)

One word animal title movies. It's sort of my thing and all my friends know it. Haven't found one I didn't love as they are usually so bad they are good.

Anaconda
Spiders
Crocodile
Komodo

I have more and I still enjoy them.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone else say anything good about Cloverfield, but I personally liked it a lot. Maybe it's just because of my experience of watching it in theaters for the first time, not really knowing anything at all about it other than what little the tv trailers let on, so the element of discovering what was going on alongside the characters and only knowing about as much as they knew just really made it interesting for me.

The Fifth Element (Luc Besson Directing, with Jean Paul Gualtier let loose on costume design, set in the future, AND Millia Jovovich with red hair wearing next to nothing!)

The Matrix Trilogy (Probably more for the hours of discussions it's lead me to have about sentience and philosophy.)

Donnie Darko (Not the directors cut for once, i thought it made things too obvious while the theatrical version was like a meta game where you had to go do research afterwards.)

S. Darko (Don't know why it bombed so badly.)

Sunshine (Everyone i know thought it was awful. It made me cry twice. In a good way.)

Watchmen (All my friends hated it. They are no longer my friends.)

Alien Vs. Predator series (Just a bit of fun, really.)

Spiderman 2 (The only genuinely good one, in my opinion.)

Solaris (Found it very moving and interesting.)

2001; A Space Odyssey (My friends are philestines.)

Patlabor 2 (It's a political intrigue story with mecha!)

Dune (The David Lynch Version. Epic, just Epic.)

Doctor Who (My friends think it's stupid, i make sure i'm watching it live every week.)

Casshern (Apparently it was indescipherable. I thought it was the closest live action could get to an anime.)

Twelve Monkeys (Just awesome. Pure, unadulterated awesome.)

I'm sure there's a tonne more.

i seem to like things everybody else hates. And i usually watch it first, *then* find out everybody hates it.

oh god I remember that movie. Those evil energy alien things were freaking badass. Wish I could remember what they were called.

Men who stare at goats. It takes alot to get a feelgood reaction from a die hard pessimist. This manages it with Boston and a guy running through a wall. I love it.

The funny thing is they can never seem to come up with a more concrete reason for hating these movies apart from "It shouldn't have won that Oscar, X film should have won it." Really pathetic.

That is so stupid XD I mean I have hated films because they beat my favorites, but also because I personally didn't like the movie, and I had actual reasons.

Tropic Thunder. Oh I forgot to mention, all my friends suck!!!!
How can anyone hate Tropic Thunder? Its one of my favourite comedies in recent years.

Anyways, I like Year One. I'm not sure if everyone hates Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World like my friends, but i had so much fun watching that movie

Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull. Honestly, I thought it was a great movie, taken on its own.

I loved Donnie Darko.

OP: Hmmm Watchmen. Everybody seems to hate it, with complaints ranging from "The butchered the plot" to "Oh, you see that dudes dick? SOOO GAYYY", but I liked it. Maybe not 100% true to the comic, but as it's own film it was certainly good
