movies you like that everyone else hates

Is it wrong to like The Black Dahlia, directed by Brian De Palma? I mean, I thought it was a very enjoyable film. In fact, when I watch it on my laptop, I have my DVD player set to display the movie in black and white (and strangely enough, the film comes off even more film noirish). The only issue I had was the fact that they played Hilary Swanks' character looking like Mia Kirshner's character (and vice-versa), but they look nor act nothing alike to draw any kind of comparison.
 
Punisher: Warzone! It was my favorite of Frank Castle's big screen romps. Morose, unapologetically violent, and Ray Stevenson's brooding and physically large screen presence felt pitch-perfect to me. I have a hard time empathizing with Punisher fans and moviegoers who in general dismiss it as being terrible.
 
I still own it and have been known to pull it out and put it in:sleep

Ol' fingercuffs! :lol


Mad Max beyond thunderdome. Saw it before the others. I UNDERSTAND why it is the least liked... But I STILL like it.

ROTJ (the ewoks did NOT defeat the empire... it was a diversion and I always took it that the ewoks prob had more casualties.)

Tim and Erics "billion dollar movie". So stupid it's great.
 
I've always liked Eddie and the Cruisers. Most people don't. I even like the sequel Eddie Lives.

There's just something about the music that I really really enjoy.
 
Indiana Jones 4. There. I said it. We watched it for the fourth time recently, and decided it's *not* as heinous as everyone has decided. It's definitely better than Temple of Doom (IMHO! IMHO!!).

So add it to my list of Wild Wild West (Will Smith version), Howard the Duck, Cemetery Man, Mallrats, Maximum Overdrive, Evolution and Bubba Ho-Tep.
 
Ghost Rider
Howling 3: The Marsupials
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
The Lost World: Jurassic Park
Jaws 3
Peter Jackson's King Kong
Gremlins 2: The New Batch
Ghostbusters 2
 
JONAH HEX.

That's right, I said it. I enjoyed the film.

I like Josh Brolin. I like John Malkovich. Megan Fox was hotter in this movie than she's ever been before. EVAR. I liked the effect they used when Hex conversed with the dead.

So yeah. COME AT ME, BRO!
 
Wow, lotta guilty love for Crystal Skull in this thread. I personally have a love/hate relationship with it. Glad to see Cemetery Man and Bubba Ho-Tep getting their props here as well!
