You don't know many Jews, do you? There's a reason that "Jewish Mother" is a code word for "guilt maker".

I actually don't know any Jews....I've never even heard that term before.

Never too late to make Jewish friends though!


We've derailed this thread majorly....

They created guilt.

"Why can't you be more like your brother?"

"My son, The Doctor."

Well, we haven't derailed it too far, since we're still talking about guilt. And there haven't been too many new postings about movies. Still...

Since I mentioned some non-war movies, I'll continue.

Enchanted.
Juno.
(500 Days Of) Summer.

All good movies in their own way, but none of them meant to be enjoyed by a single 60-year-old man. And I own all three. Hence, Guilty Pleasure.

Oh, I also like the first Hulk and both Fantastic Four movies. So there.

Oh, and Crash Dive? I said right off the bat in my thread about it that my whole "Best submarine movie ever" schtick was a joke, and I bought it sight unseen, and the only thing I really wanted to show was the color footage of early Elco 77-foot boats and S-Boats, so Platapus can shut right up and go back to sleep.

Seriously.




I mean it.

Juno is a pretty good film. I wouldn't consider that guilty pleasure material.

[Red October1984]

I have to say that my guilty pleasure movies have to be

Austin Powers
2008's Get Smart
U-571

There are more...but that's for later.

Oh I agree. I got free tickets for a sneak preview, and felt pretty odd with two middle-aged guys sitting in a theater full of teenagers.

That's pretty funny.

[Liam C]

While not a war movie.

I LOVE Bio-Dome with Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin.
