Okay, I've got one that no one has mentioned.

Space Truckers.

Without clicking the link, just imagine what it might be.

Got it pictured?

Yes. It is exactly what you imagined.

It's Star Wars and Space Balls splashed across Trucker stereotypes. It's affordably made, except when it's trying to be gross - when no expense is spared.

But somehow it's also... just all around...good? It's good. I can't explain it. But... it's just... a pretty good movie.

The characters are relatable. The acting is professional and effective. It's easy to root for the main cast, and against the badguys. All the story beats land where and how they should.

I want to see someone do one of those high minded film making analysis on "Space Truckers", because I suspect it is better on every level than it has any right to be.

Hot Rod! I can quote pretty much the whole movie. It’s such a fun ride.

Making a film so bland and forgettable but still one of the coolest things I've ever seen is a feat.

Ice Pirates (1984): A bunch of A-Listers before they were big. Great practical effects. Spaceships, Pirates, Time Travel, 'robots' It was magnificent.

Close second: The Cat from Outer Space (1978). It was a Disney flick, but really great for the time.

Not a movie, but Konosuba. Yeah, the show is trash, but it's my trash. I will ride Aqua until the day I die

Half the reason I love Drop Dead Fred so much is because my wife hates it so much.

Star Trek IV: The Journey Home is way the hell better than any movie with "IV" in its title has any right to be.

Superman 3 beats almost ANY action movie out there. It literally has everything you could want in a movie... it doesn't take itself too seriously so it's funny as hell, has actual character development unlike anything we've seen before or since in an superhero movie, cool but believable fight scenes, morally grey characters, and RICHARD PRYOR.

One I love and haven't seen mentioned is Equalibrium, I've probably seen it 5 times, which is a lot of times for me. I see its ham fisted metaphors and raise you gun karate.

“Who Framed Roger Rabbit”.

An absolute masterpiece in terms of blending and transitioning between live action and animation; plus the whole Disney/Warner Bros character crossovers.. just 👌🏼

I'm going to get impaled for this but The Rise of Skywalker. It's my guilty pleasure.

If you'll notice the arterial nature of the blood coming from the hole in my head, you can assume that we're all having a real lousy day.

Chocolate. Taiwanese movie about an autistic girl who goes around beating up gangsters in the styles of famous martial artists she saw on TV, followed by her repeatedly demanding they give her an unspecified amount of money.
