<p>Blazing Saddles (for ALL, not just the males 
)
Planes, Trains, & Automobiles (a holiday classic)
Uncle Buck</p>
<p>Just me, DH hates these: Legally Blonde, Pretty Woman</p>
<p>RE: Legally Blonde</p>
<p>Several years ago a friend of mine was taking her young teen D & a friend to see a Broadway play & she invited me to go along. She insisted on paying so, of course, I said anything the girls wanted to see would be fine with me. They picked Legally Blonde and I’ll admit it wouldn’t have been my top pick (or my 2nd or 3rd), but it was so much fun! Loved it.</p>
<p>Any day, any time, because of its geographic and historical importance in my life, but mostly becuse it’s just great,</p>
<p>A Christmas Story</p>
<p>Monty Python and the Holy Grail
The Producers (original version)
Young Frankenstein</p>
<p>Independence Day
Terminator I
Rudy</p>
<p>A because that time of year is fast approaching: A Christmas Story (I double-dog dare you to watch it!)</p>
<p>^^^^^</p>
<p>Jinx, gloworm!</p>
<p>Yes, I also love A Christmas Story. It was my Dad’s favorite movie–he grew up in that era. My Ss & I throw around catch phrases from that movie (i.e. “Randy lay there like a slug, it was his only defense.”). I have to say though, I don’t like how its not on TV until Christmas Day and then they beat it to death by playing it for 24 hours. I know, I should just buy the DVD. How about ELF?</p>
<p>Bullet… you beat me!</p>
<p>We love to watch Monty Python and the Holy Grail. My DS loves the “un” ordinary rabbit and the “it’s just a flesh wound” and “run away” :D</p>
<p>My favorite- Aliens (the second and best)</p>
<p>Sleepless in Seattle
Notting Hill (saw it at least 3 times on a flight to London)
My Best Friend’s Wedding</p>
<p>all time fave, Breakfast at Tiffany’s</p>
<p>ELY, I agree, don’t play Christmas Story over and over. It loses its appeal. Whenever we hear a pack of dogs barking, we yell, “Bumpuses!”</p>
<p>Pretty Woman, Bread and Tulips, Mean Girls</p>
<p>It’s a Wonderful Life</p>
<p>I can’t count “A Christmas Story” as a guilty pleasure, since it’s actually a GOOD movie!!</p>
<p>And - let me brag here - I am one of the 500 people in america that saw that movie in the theater on its opening day… :D</p>
<p>Now… “Dont…bother me. I’m…thinking.”</p>
<p>“A Christmas Story” is a guilty pleasure? It is ART. I listened to Jean Shepherd for years on WOR in New York. </p>
<p>“The Great Escape” is too good to be considered a GP but I love it. “Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House” is a wonderful piece of fluff…but almost anything with Cary Grant is a guilty pleasure in my book.</p>
<p>Someone mentioned “Uncle Buck”. I am in total agreement.</p>
<p>Well, so, A Christmas Story is ART, but it is still for me a guilty pleasure.</p>
<p>If I must conform, I’ll go with Legally Blonde, and/or Miss Congeniality, and finally, Green Card.</p>
<p>I don’t watch many movies more than once-& I don’t watch TV so renting them on Netflix is on purpose.</p>
<p>I used to * love* Highlander. Really- the first movie not the tv show or subsequent movies. ( I suspect I would still love it- I saw it in a theatre at least three times)
Also love Fish Called Wanda- but that is a good movie!</p>
<p>Just watched* Chocolat*- don’t even care for chocolate usually but now craving it!</p>
<p>* The Princess Bride* is a classic.</p>
<p>And * Singles*
but Eddie playing drums
not to mention Matt Dillon & his wig.</p>
<p>Also French Kiss & In & Out- anything with Kevin Kline- even Princess Caraboo.</p>
<p>Pretty Woman
The Princess Bride
The American President (I know waaaay too much of the dialogue by heart ;))</p>
<p>Some of these movies listed as guilty pleasures I think of as “good” movies, which just shows you how low my standards are. Love “A Christmas Story” and “Young Frankenstein” and 'Napoleon Dynamite." I’m the only one I know who hasn’t seen “The Princess Bride.”</p>
<p>I admit it… Animal House is still always funny to me.</p>
<p>Con Air
The Presidio
From Paris With Love</p>
<p>Drop Dead Gorgeous (local beauty pageant with Minnesota accents!) - with one of my all-time favorite lines: “That’s why we Lutherans use grape Kool-Aid for the blood of Christ”</p>
<p>“Seven years of college down the drain”
“Did we give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?”
“Knowledge is Good” (engraved on the statue of Emil Faber)
“See if you can guess what I am now”</p>
<p>And countless other examples of inspired screenwriting make me proud to nominate Animal House as the top Guilty Pleasure film of all time.</p>
