Clear and Present Danger is a good film. Ford is at his best, the "How dare you, Sir" line is epic.

That brought the lulz as well.

I don't think some people understand the meaning of "guilty pleasure." MB does, but his tastes are so advanced and sophiscated that listing a good movie (not very good or excellent) is considered a guilty pleasure.

The clearly awesome 80s soundtrack makes watching every time worth it.

For all you wrestlers, Vision Quest is def a guilty pleasure of mine as well.

Also, whenever "best of the best" is on TV I have to watch it.

Yeah, A Few Good Men isn't exactly a lesser known, guilty pleasure type movie lol.

I think of Guilty Pleasure as either a) everyone else didn't like it, but you do or b) it didn't get any attention/no one really saw it but you saw it and liked it.

Deep Blue Sea is another one

That or, the movie is just critically considered a shitty movie.

Not a movie, but Shark Tank is a guilty pleasure of mine. Always have it DVR'd since it is on Fridays.

YES! Reps for the Shark Tank reference. We just stumbled upon this show within the last couple months and we are addicted. Every Friday at 8 we watch it. Yes, multiple 24 year old people in a major city on a Friday night we are most excited about Shark Tank.

Probably my favorite show at the moment.

LOL, it comes on at 9 here, otherwise I would be down to watch it before going out. Also seem to be the only one in my group of friends who has heard of the show though. Def an awesome show. I wish I could come up with a simple business idea just to negotiate with them.

If you do, sell me 1% equity. I will do the same on my end if I think of something. Thanks.

Edit: Did you see the episode with the dude and the smiley face sponges? Fucking pissed me off how simple that idea was.

Off topic a little bit (reported), but we were like that in college with Dawson's Creek. Every Wednesday night, our dorm and the two dorms on each side of us would all watch it in our dorm.

Deal.

I did not see that one. I loved the one with the 15 year old who started her own jewelry business for younger kids...the sharks were all over that one lol

Also loved Mark Cuban in the episode where the guy asks for half a million dollars for the jacket technology that holds all of your ipods, ipads, laptops, etc. Basically got a patent on the little hole that your wires go through lol Cuban HATED it. The guy was a prick too.
