harrie December 5, 2015 Share December 5, 2015 I always enjoyed her movies. I've also watched A Perfect Murder (not stupid) and A View from the Top (Kind of stupid) a bunch of times. For anyone who likes those girly movies, I'd recommend giving the second one a whirl; just don't expect it to be Oscar Worthy. I do think A View from the Top is stupid, but I don't think the producers et al set out to make Citizen Kane and don't pretend to have done so. I watch it whenever I come across it and enjoy it a lot. 1 Link to comment
blugirlami21 December 6, 2015 Share December 6, 2015 We have a couple of movies we watch over and over in our house: The Mummy 1 and 2 Twister Independence Day I Robot Transformers A couple for me specifically are: Where the Heart Is Captain Amerida Winter Soldier (any marvel movie really) Twilight (any of them). I actually like the movies. I'm easily amused ;) The Blind Side First Kid I'll stop there. My list would be endless if I don't. I am a repeat offender at rewatching movies I like. I even keep them on my dvr so I can rewatch them whenever I want. 1 Link to comment
Blergh December 7, 2015 Share December 7, 2015 "Protocol" with Goldie Hawn playing a ditzy waitress who literally bumps into a Middle Eastern emir and becomes the then-burgeoning cable news outlets' media darling while unwittingly becoming a State Department pawn. Yeah, it's silly and has a clunker of a speech by Miss Hawn's character in the end but it's somewhat mindlessly sitcom funny most of the time AND it gives a good [barely] parodying encapsulation of just HOW these news outlets hyped things back then! 2 Link to comment

I loved it, but until a few months ago, had never seen it on tv, so it had been years since I'd seen it. However, I saw it enough the first time around that I remembered most of it: "This must be one of your gay, Arab, biker, sushi bars." And, with the whole Sarah Palin/SNL "I can see Russia from my house" thing in 2008, I thought of "No, I've never been out of the country. Well, I was in Canada once, but that doesn't count because it's attached." dozens of times that year (and since I don't want to get political: I know she never said that, just the Tina Fey character on SNL--but whenever it was commented on, it made me think of Protocol). 1 Link to comment

That's mostly down to my Keanu Reeves love, but it's also just a silly-cute movie. They just readded The Replacements back to Netflix, and I forgot how much I love that movie. It consistently makes me laugh throughout the entire thing, and even though a lot of the premise is kind of dumb (like, why would the cheerleaders be on strike just because the players were?), the cast has so much chemistry together that it makes me forget all those little details. Then again, Keanu has a lot of movies I love - I refuse to call Speed, Point Break, and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure stupid though. 5 Link to comment
dusang May 9, 2016 Share May 9, 2016 Many (many many) moons ago I did one of those Columbia House subscription things where you get the first 13 DVDs for like a penny and then must get some minimum number of DVDs over the next year or something (it actually wasn't that bad and the only unwanted DVD I received was Catch Me If You Can so totally not terrible). Anyway, when signing up I picked like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Usual Suspects because, you know, trying to be not trashy. However, which DVD have I watched the most since then? Bring It On. Do I really want to call Bring It On a stupid film? Not really, it's the best. But where I can probably quote (and sing and dance) along to every scene in that movie, I'm not sure I ever even opened The Usual Suspects. 7 Link to comment

Oh, I hope it's still there! And, no, imo, it's not a stupid movie. Part of me wants to show my kids, but since soaps aren't as much of a big deal these days (I stopped watching my a number of years before they went off the air), I don't think they'd get it. Maybe... Quote "He doesn't have a head!" "So, they found the head, put it on ice, then sewed it back on during a grueling 3 day operation. Will you use your imagination!" (That probably not exact--I haven't seen it an a while) "It's expensive and depressing. Two words I hate. Do you know what words I love? Peppy and cheap!" Oh, and "Providence!

"He doesn't have a head! How am I supposed to write for a guy who doesn't have a head? He's got no lips, no vocal cords. What do you want me to do?" I love that whole film. It came out while I was still watching a soap (I was down to only Guiding Light at that point -- largely because of shit like bringing back characters who have no heads), and I went to see it in the theatre with a friend who was still recording two or three of them. We laughed so hard. "She has more lines than I do and she's a goddamn mute!" And when Celeste is going on about the turban making her feel like Gloria Fucking Swanson. And when she gives the motherhood speech she stole from her character. This movie is so good! Edited May 16, 2016 by Bastet 9 Link to comment

And a movie about an interracial couple? Forget about it. There used to be cheesy teen ones that would end up being great movies (Clueless, 10 Things I hate about you, etc), and cute romantic comedies like While You Were Sleeping, Wedding Singer, but now it's just movies that care more about making a buck so it has to be CGI'd out. 3 Link to comment
Princess Sparkle May 23, 2016 Share May 23, 2016 (edited) I watched two of my favorite "stupid, but I can watch them a billion times" movies this weekend - Rush Hour and Rat Race. Rush Hour works so well for me because Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker have amazing chemistry, and honestly, I could watch the outtake scene over the end credits where Chris Tucker continually forgets Chelsea Clinton's name every day for the rest of my life. And Rat Race is one of the few movies I remember where the entire theater I was in laughed so uproariously at parts that it drowned out the dialogue. I can't even pick a favorite character; everyone in it is just so funny, even Gloria Allred. I do remember being in tears during the Jon Lovitz-at-a-WW2 rally part, but Whoopi Goldberg's adorably clueless character never fails to make me laugh. "Oooh, a scam? Sign us up!"

I'm sure the same happened with Purple Rain after Prince died. As far as I know, everyone in this movie is still among us. Link to comment

dusang June 3, 2016 Share June 3, 2016 (edited) This isn't a stupid movie at all but one of my childhood obsessions was The Great Muppet Caper, which I watched repeatedly. It was put on Netflix last year and I watched it again and remembered nearly every line. I was actually surprised how much I remembered, considering it had been (I had to count twice to believe it was true) about 25 years since I last watched it. In those 25 years I have experienced and forgotten more things than I care to acknowledge (my entire university degree among them) and yet I have managed to retain a perfect memory of the fabulous Baseball Diamond heist. (One of my favourite lines in the entire movie is Lady Holiday, in response to Ms. Piggy asking "why are you telling me all this?" saying, "It's plot exposition, it has to go somewhere." I didn't know what "plot exposition" was but the line stuck with me and I finally got to laugh at it years after the fact.) Edited June 3, 2016 by dusang 2 Link to comment
Ohwell June 18, 2016 Share June 18, 2016 This is a stupid movie that I hadn't seen before until this morning, but I will be watching over and over from now on. It's called Piranha 3DD and it's got Gary Busey, Christopher Lloyd, Ving Rhames, and...David Hasselhoff playing his drunken self. It's kinda like Sharknado, but with piranhas. Anyway, there's a line that one of the women says as she runs out of the room where she was getting it on with this guy: "Josh cut off his penis because something came out of my vagina!!!" That cracked me up. Poor Josh. 1 Link to comment
