El Queso! (The Cheese)

We've all got them: Guilty Pleasures. Those things which we know are bad and/or really shouldn't like, but do anyway. Since this is a forum section for movies, anyone want to share what old cheesy/cult favorites really do it for them? From daikaiju (think Godzilla and Ultraman), to Ed Wood. From "The Day the Earth Stood Still" and "It Came From The Desert" to "Big Trouble in Little China" and "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension" (I've got that;) ) Just chime in and let your particular kind of processed lactic goodness be known. We're all geeks here.

Air Force One and Con Air. They might not be entirely "cheesy" but just something about a hero taking on a plane full of baddies appeals to me.

Speaking of which, I need to get around to seeing Snakes on a Plane.

I must protest: The Day The Earth Stood Still is a sci-fi classic, up there with the likes of King Kong and Forbidden Planet. And you can't really call Big Trouble in Little China a cheesy movie when it blatantly parodies kung-fu movie conventions left and right while, at the same time, it pays homage to them.

I'm seriously confused by what the hell I'm supposed to post here? Does that qualify as spam to be hunted? Very Happy

Yes. LOOOOONG ago. We each only have so much cheese to spread about.

I pretty sure that every movie I ever watch according to Dan and Liam are cheesy, but my classic favorites are:

Puff the Magic Dragon
The Last Unicorn
Hair
Labrinith (who doesn't love Bowey)

And dozens of others that I can't think of.

If I would have know that in High School, I think we would have had better conversations!

If Arturo (Parsifal) would just pry away from whatever it is that he does for one second, you'd have someone to speak with for hours on end, Celo.

Maybe he's lurking and he'll spot this post.
