Super Mario Bros and Street Fighter. I've recently watched them both for the first time since the 90's and I think they're pretty good.

Waterworld (Loved it)
Notebook
A Walk to Remember
and all those Teen movies from the late 90's early 2000's.
Like She's All That, 10 Things I Hate About You, Can't Hardly Wait.
I attribute the last 3 to sidewaydriver syndrome.

Okay, half the shit you guys listed are legit good movies. I think the idea was more along Douche's response of a plethora of chick flicks. And junk movies with hot/naked chicks don't count.

Most disaster movies by Roland Emmerich (except Godzilla), and a few Don Bluth movies after the period in which people agree he lost it.
In fact, to mention Don Bluth nearby an animation major seems like grounds enough for a lynching.

Don Bluth's work is excellent, anyone who says otherwise is a turd. Now if you wanna talk crap, there's always Ralph Bakshi. His stuff would definitely fall into the "guilty pleasures" category. For some reason though, animation snobs LOVE his incoherent bullshit. I guess it's because people have a tendency to confuse "incoherency" and "poor story structure" with "artistic brilliance". Just because something doesn't quite make sense to you, a person of below average intelligence, that doesn't automatically make it high art. Fucking pretentious morons.

Well, he said it. Not me.
And as for Don Bluth, the film that eventually led to his downfall was Rock-A-Doodle, but for some reason, I enjoyed it immensely.

Don Bluth is a saint, and I will stand by calling anyone who dismisses his art a fucking snob. I worked with a guy who was going to some lame art school to be an animator, and we literally almost got in a fist fight because he was naming off random directors no one has heard of to make himself sound intelligent and he called Bluth "like, totally lame dude. My professor told me he's like so unoriginal and nowhere near as cool as like, anime peoples." I want him to die in a fire.

Did Don Bleuth do "All Dogs Go to Heaven?" I watched a little bit of that a few months back. It's really dark, especially for kids.

Star Wars: Episode I. Yeah, it's the worst of all the six, but I still watch any time I notice it's playing on Spike. It's cheesey, the acting blows, Jar Jar blows even harder...but it's Star Wars. Sue me. I enjoy it. A lot of people hate Episode II as well, but I dig it.
I liked Episode 1 to 3. They are actually good movies, at least this is my humble opinion. The fact that the add something new to the star wars univerese is enough to satisfy me and the actors, special effects etc. were at least ok.
it was the best of times
it was the blurst of times

Yeah, he was one of the directors and writers of it. I never really found it to be that dark, over the top in some areas, but never dark.
Oh, and to add to guilty pleasures, I enjoyed Jingle All the Way and Escape from NY probably more than most other people. Another slightly guiltier and possible more obscure one of mine is The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, which I know is supposed to be as campy and hokey as possible, but it still seems like it fits.

A movie that brought us the unintentionally hilarious statement:
But back on subject, I would like to add to my list The Core.
Yes, the science in the movie would make Jeff Foxworthy's "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?" look like a MENSA entry exam, but it was a fun movie regardless.
And as much that I hate Uwe Boll with the passion of 10,000 exploding suns...
