You want to know a guilty pleasure movie of mine?

The Replacements.

I just caught the end of it again on TV, and I still love it. It's utterly ridiculous, but I love Keanu Reeves as a professional quarterback. I love Gene Hackman as the wise old coach in his absurd hat. I love the football-nerding, bar-owning head cheerleader. I love the wacky cast of players. I crack up at the former-stripper cheerleader squad, even though my feminist side sends up tiny flags of protest. It's like someone took every underdog-sports-movie cliche and stuffed it into one screenplay, and I know that. I enjoy the shit out of it anyway.

Anyway. Yeah. Guilty pleasure, right there. :D
