Most definitely.

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. It gets a lot of hate, some of it justified. But I think it's one of the most Star Trek of the original six films, along 1 and 4.

Finding Nemo. Just never clicked me. Where Pixar's work is concerned, I've only loved the Toy Story films, A Bug's Life, and The Incredibles.

Oh, and I really don't like Starship Troopers.

Sorry, dude. I felt Finding Nemo was a great film. A Bug's Life, however, felt very weak. But yes, the Toy Story films and the Incredibles are the best. I'm still waiting for an Incredibles 2 to be made. By that point, Dash may be a teenager.

I personally thought Battleship was pretty good, yet everyone else seems to hate it.

Mortal Kombat 1 is one of my favorite movies, but everyone in my family hates it.

My two favorite movies are the LOTR trilogy (I count as one movie) and the Labyrinth.

I enjoyed Death to Smoochie, Daredevil and pretty much all the Nightmare on Elm Street Movies, Demolition Man and Judge Dredd were bad/but awesome at the same time.

I like the first and third Transformers. I also like Ang Lee's Hulk. I thnk that movie is probably just as good as Incredible Hulk.

I've also warmed up to Green Lantern. Came out of the theater hating it, but after seeing it a few more times, it isn't really all that bad.

I liked Green Lantern, too. It's not in the top tier of comic adaptations, but I thought it was a fun movie.

Films I like that people harp on:

Willow
Conan the Destroyer
GI Joe: Rise of Cobra
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Batman '89 (suddenly that movie is terrible for some reason, never mind that it was a game changer)
Idiocracy
Joe Dirt
Dune
Legend
The Fifth Element

Yeah, unfortunately. Usually the complaints are having Batman kill (which makes no sense to me, considering the Nolan films) or complaining about Jack Nicholson's performance as the Joker.

"It's just Nicholson playing himself!"

Yeah, because Jack Nicholson is always photographed running around in a purple suit dancing to "Party Man". He's wicked, he's sadistic, and he's funny. That sounds like the Joker to me and that's what Nicholson played.

"He's fat."

WTF?! Are you kidding me? Clearly people have ridiculous standards as to what constitutes overweight. This makes absolutely no sense at all.

Nowadays...

The Cable Guy. At least that's what I hear despite never actually meeting a person who didn't like it. Maybe it's just the company I keep...

i can't really think of a movie i like tat everyone else hated. I'd say Saw: The Final Chapter cuz of the ratings i've read, but I guess you just have to be a fan of it? (does that make sense? Oh well.) pretty much I like the saw movies.

Well I don't love the movie and definitely don't consider it a cinematic masterpiece, but I'm one of the few people that liked The Cell. Even though Satoshi Kon did it better, I liked the design in the movie.

I enjoy Double Dragon. It's not really anything like the games and it's definitely campy, but I like watching it for some reason. I really don't know why other than Alyssa Milano being hot as hell in it. But that wouldn't really explain me sitting through the whole film whenever I find it on.

Battleship. I liked. Why? I don't know. It was just entertaining. I know it didn't have much to do with the board game it was based off of, but for some reason, I liked it.

Are "cult classics" allowed? If so, "Hell Comes To Frogtown.' It's amazingly bad, but hey look, Roddy Piper!

Also, did I already say "No Holds Barred"? Half-drunk at the moment so forgive my faulty memory. I acknowledge the many flaws in that movie, but it's like Hulk Hogan's very own "Rocky" movie and in that context a lot of it is forgiveable. At the very least, the action scenes were competent and everyone's acting was able to keep me believing in the often-silly goings-on. I suspect a lot of stuff that might have made that movie somewhat-better was cut for time.

I guess Punisher: Warzone. I thought it was a hilarious over the top homage to 80s style action films. It was also a lot closer to the comics then the previous films. I liked Ray's Punisher better then Jane too.

People tend to rag on TMNT 2 SOOT a lot but it's my favorite of the original trilogy.

I can agree with Punisher Warzone, but I disagree on Thomas Jane. I think he was better.
