1. Blades of Glory is so....good. -williamscastle
2. The Day After Tomorrow. It’s bad, bad, bad, but such a fun watch. -iAmJacksBowelCancer
3. Armageddon. It is a shit Michael Bay movie that makes no sense and has scenery chewing all over and I am there for every minute of it. -RudeEtuxtable
4. Early Van Damme movies. They’re awful but I’ve seen them all multiple times. Give me a Kickboxer / Double-Impact double feature and I’ll be there to watch that garbage. -spaceman_danger
5. Dude Where's My Car. -ThatMechEGuy
6. Deep Blue Sea. I mostly enjoy that one unexpected scene. Check it out! -shiru2k1
7. Ghost Ship. It's a great short film, followed by a very average movie. -Lulelolives
8. Fool’s gold. It’s a dumb movie that makes no sense but for some reason I go back and watch it at least once a year and enjoy it every time. -milkynipples69
9. Gone in 60 Seconds. Say what you will, but I can watch this everyday. -kindalikeacoustic
10. The Highlander. That movie goes all the way around. It's so bad that it's great. They need to cut people's head off. Why? Um, cos it's awesome. Sean Connery in his world famous Scottish accent plays the Egyptian. Why? Because the French guy is playing the Highland Scot of course.

Okay this sounds like it's going to be a disaster, who's going to do the soundtrack? Queen. F*cking Queen? I bet some shit they already released and money grab songs? Oh no they go for it, like some of their best songs are written just for that movie. Okay f*ck it I'm in. -Awkward_moments
11. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. It's so much fun and I love the Nautilus. -jim_deneke
12. The Super Mario Bros. live action movie. Don't care, love it. -Creepy_Apricot_6189
13. Street fighter with Raul Julia as Bison and Kylie Minogue as Cammy. Oh, and a Samoan bloke as E Honda, because 90s. -Molongoloid
14. Joe Dirt. Such a dumb movie, but still makes me laugh. --eDgAR-
15. Tokyo drift. Arguably debated as the start of the franchises downfall but one of my favorites despite that. -gofuckyourselfmods1
16. The Core. I’m paraphrasing here, but there’s a portion in the movie where everyone says it can’t be done; but one guy takes a drag on a cig and says: “but what if…we could”. The entire movie progresses on that point. -tucktan
17. Van Helsing. It's Hugh Jackman, Kate Beckinsale ala the glory days of 2004. It's got a 27% on rotten tomatoes,. 6/10 on IMDb but there's something about the dry jokes smattered in what's supposed to be high tension scenes, or scenes of sexual tension. The special effects aren't the greatest but at the same time it also adds to the experience. -Jakows
18. The Faculty. It's cheesy, and some parts are almost laughable. But it's a fun watch and I love it!!! --Alter-Reality-
19. Without a Paddle. F*cking hilarious, and also dumb as hell. -DreamQueen710
20. Batman & Robin is certainly a bad movie. I love it so much. It’s worth watching for Arnold and his puns alone. But the whole movie is just campy fun. -randomnbvcxz
