There's nothing terrible about those films! They're classics.

Oh yes! I'd also like add Dante's Peak.
Oh no! That's a cult classic and really is an intelligent, witty horror flick. At least think so.
It's been forever since I've seen the movie or read the book. Both seemed great at the time.
I made my wife watch Megaforce with me. I should have kept it a personal guilty pleasure. The ending was so bad it was bad, though.

I thought this thread was about terrible movies... those were great because they were, well, great.
As for movies that are so bad they're enjoyable, I nominate any one of a number of monster flicks on the old Sci-Fi channel.
I can't even count how many times I've watched The Room. I've seen it in theaters at least 4 times in the past year plus I have it downloaded.
Superstar (Molly Shannon & Will Ferrell), Mean Girls, and Ghost (Patrick Swayze) are also favorites.
I was going to put this one in the "What's the worst movie you've ever seen?" thread!
For this thread for me it is "The Chronicles Of Riddick." The first time I saw it I thought it was an incomprehensible mess. Now I watch it every time I see it listed.
I just watched Tommy Boy again last night. Bad movie but Chris Farley was just so far out there that I can't help it lol.
I excised the unnecessary words in your post.
I'll point you to 50 First Dates and Bedtime Stories as above average films, and The Wedding Singer as not completely terrible Adam Sandler movies.
I'm temped to put up Starship Troopers accept that I believe there was a concerted effort to make it corny to achieve a certain vibe. So honestly I've enjoyed watching this multiple times, outstanding visuals, while admitting that Casper Van Dien was hired specifically because of his attrocious acting skills.
I enjoyed that one.
Agreed!
Tend to agree.

With Paul Verhoeven at the helm, your probably right on! Paul Verhoeven's the one behind the first Robocop, in 1987, mixing science fiction, action and some over-the-top satire. (not to mention directing Arnie in Total Recall and Michael Douglas / Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct).
Verhoeven did the original RoboCop but he also did Showgirls. They pretty much cancel each other out.
He had a distinct signature. I liked the original Robocop and Total Recall too!
