So I was playing on the IMDb while I was doing my hair and today's poll is "Which Razzie winner from the last ten years is by far the worst?" And Battlefield Earth is winning.

This bothers me, and I've got a confession to make -- I love Battlefield Earth.

Now, let's keep in mind that I love it based on two unwavering beliefs -- that Battlefield Earth is a parody, and that you should take a shot every time a plot point makes no fucking sense, dialogue sound trite and idiotic, or John Travolta gets scenery stuck in his teeth. If your liver is not gasping for help by the end of the first scene, you're not very observant.

Also on the list of movies I'm embarrassed I still love ... Titanic. Shut up. And as if it wouldn't already be embarrassing, I'm a Titanic junkie. I know there's stuff wrong, and I know where it's wrong, and I know all of the stories that were much more interesting on that boat than Cameron's insipid love story. The problem is that I'm so in love with the ship that when watching with me, most of the movie sounds like this -- "Ooo, look at the pretty boat! And there's the nicest first-class suites, and there's the Grand Staircase, and there's the bow, and ... oh, no, the boat got a bump on its knee! Aw, c'mere, pretty boat -- wait! Where are you going, pretty boat? No, don't sink, boat! I'll never let go, boat! I'll never let go! *watches ship sink and sobs*"

Yes, I'm infatuated with a ship. Ours is a forbidden love.

So, what about you guys? Which movies are you embarrassed to admit you adore?

God, no. *gags* Although, if you want to hear something sick, if I want to make myself cry (which would come in really handy if I were an actress), that song works.

As a pretty ballady song, I like it. Nice melody, sweet sentiment, good lyrics. Diane Warren strikes again (she *was* the writer, right?) However, Celine Dion manages to mangle the fuck out of it, so *shudder.*
