Movies that are so bad that they are good. I find myself watching certain movies over and over and sometimes asking myself WHY? Usually it has to do with nostalgia...I like the time period they portray and make me remember to back when they were made and or portray. Sometimes they just make me think back to the time period of when I first saw them.

Here are a couple of mine:

Band of the Hand

Dazed and Confused

Cannonball Run/Smokey & the Bandit movies

the Airplane movies

some stupid-ass movie where steve guttenburg tries to win over jamie gertz by posing as an australian biker with a mullet? NO fucking idea why i've seen this at all, let alone more than once.

lately Rules of Attraction has been on HBO and I've watched it every time it's been on.

oh fucking christ - that movie where Seth Green is a wigger and he gets to bang the hot daughter from Six Feet Under.

all the Brat Pack movies.

Urban Cowboy - the scene where he shows her their new trailer is alone worth the admission price.

saturday night fever.

legend

the stoned age - um, no fucking idea. maybe cause it's unintentionally funny?

"Dude where's my car?" - Its funny, I cant help it.

"Steal this Movie" - I have watched this a million times, I can no longer blame it on my crappy cable
company. It has to be my unhealthy love of Janine G.

"The Ladies Man" - I just like getting my gf to watch the "Do it in the butt Chicago" part...

"The Net" - Its a horrible Compugeek movie, but God I wish the computer chicks I know looked like her!

"Swordfish" - Cool movie, but the attempt at computer jargon makes me wince. Saved itself by including a great shot of Halle Berry in her topless and in silky bra/panties.

There are more... but I need another glass

Kimchee,The Movie? Did you see the dubbed version or the version with
sub-titles?I remember this being a very moving film.
greeneyes
Never saw it, Catus. I'm talking about the fermented cabbage and miscellany that gets buried in the yard and unearthed for good eatin'. Is the movie that good?
Felis Catus
As good as anything else that was once buried in the yard.

I have had kim chee.I think it was only buried for a short time.It had a pickled flavor.

Have a Korean Night-Watch the movie,eat the veggies! I'm sure you will find the
combination moving,as well.

The movie is on eBane now;It is a dutch auction of six movies; each comes with an authentic kim chee pot.The bid was up to $19.99 the last time I checked.

Of course you have to figure in shipping costs from Korea,and the seller only takes
money orders issued by Korean markets.

But for such collectible items,I say go for it!

I'll have to give it a watch, as soon as I get some time. I think that you and I may have some similar proclivities, Miss Kitty. Thanks for the suggestion.
