Except Speed Racer, I don't see what's "guilty" about any of those.
As I thought about it, I did have a terrible list. Not to much to be embaressed about if my friends found out. Now that I have taken my time, got a better one:

Oscar
Demolition Man
Valley Girl
Weird Science
Cannonball Run
Streets of Fire
Speed Racer
G. I. Joe--Rise of Cobra
Dick Tracy

I'd have to put Streets of Fire on my list. Plus a great big spot for The Expendables.

Van Helsing seems like it was written by an excited 5 year old. It's just so over the top.

Speed racer is not a 'guilty' pleasure. It is simply a pleasure from start to finish.

Watch Edge of Tomorrow. Think Starship Troopers meets Groundhog Day

I completely forgot about that movie! I liked its story originality...of alien drones who are directed by a... mother brain bug alien. Well, Emily Blunt was pretty good in it.

I loved that movie. Tom Cruise was great in it because we get to see him go from coward to hero, instead of the usual invincible Tom Cruise. I loved everything about the movie. Bil Paxton, Emily Blunt.

Berry Gordy's The Last Dragon. The movie is carried by the villains, the hero is in his first movie ever, but there is some real emotion behind the characters. Vanity is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.

Robot Jox. Giant Robot battles but, this movie was made in 1989. Starrring Gary Graham of the Alien Nation television series, and Enterprise. It's a post-apocalyptic world where meat is a luxury, and countries fight wars through one-on-one battles with giant robots, in a tournament, and Gary Graham is America's best "Robot Jox."

Megaforce. Barry Bostwick in a too tight suit. The end is probably the greatest thing I have ever seen.

Probably been 20 years since I saw it, but I never disliked Street Fighter.

Ah, one of the cheesiest movies I have ever seen, but it's a good kind of cheese, like a Roquefort or a Gorgonzola, albeit in aerosol form.
