HAHA! I tried to make some friends watch TMNT and they were like "this is boring" ;P should have given it a chance!

Dragonfire

I like TMNT.  I watched it a few times on HBO..finally got the DVD sometime last year.

I actually liked the first two real Turtles movies, but TMNT was a bit boring.

Abraham Lincoln once said The trouble with quotes from the internet is that you never know if they're genuine.

I liked the first two real films too, the third was a bit silly it has some of my favourite film quotes in though :p

(A turtle falls on to its back) "Help im a turtle and I can't get up"

and

(Three men walk in to a room and look very confused that the turtles are there) "What were you expecting, the Adams family?

:p I can see why people felt that TMNT was boring, the beginning when they explain the story does drag on a bit, I always feel the first few minutes make a film... I thin they kind of ruin it for people

Haha Spice World is one of my guilty pleasures to. What can I say, it makes me laugh everytime just at how stupid it is. I love how the film is just poking fun at itself for the entire time. I also love that small role with Stephen Fry  :laugh:

How're we defining guilty pleasures?

Is it.
1. A film that you'd get grief from people for owning/liking so youdon't tell anyone?

or

2. A film that if it happens to be on when channel surfing, then bang goes a couple of hours?

or

3. A film that is your go to film when you're upset or ill?

My opinion was always it's number 1 of your options.

This would be my vote for what consitutes a guilty pelasure.

For me it's a film I like but I ain't supposed to because of my usual taste.

Kathy

I don't know...I have lots of pleasures...but not any guilt!

:hmmmm:

I see the small difference to the option number 1 and do understand what you mean there.

lovemunkey187

I've had grief at one point or another for liking these.

And they tick all three boxes of my GP criteria that I listed.
