Ariana Grande. I feel I shouldn’t like her music, but it is so catchy.
WHY YOU SO CATCHY?!
I like this one, and Sing too.
I’m also digging Outside. That Ellie Goulding and Calvin Harris one. You win this round, Harris. I still don’t like you tho.
I can’t help but feel this way, even though I love pretty much all of his work with other artists.
“Call Me Maybe” was my guilty pleasure for a while.
I was not really listening it, but always enjoyed hearing on the radio.
Was never a fan, but I did enjoy that one she did with Owl City. Against my better judgment.
It was called “Good Time”
It was basically the anti “Young, Wild,and Free”
I feel like this topic has a lot of lost discussion potential by being limited to the music category.
When I made created this topic, I wanted to focus on music. Sure, I can change it to entertainment in general if people feel like talking about films and so on.
Yeah, let’s move it to general entertainment.
Music-wise, “Wide Awake” by Katy Perry is a gulty pleasure of mine.
As far as movies go, I’ve got a big one - Battleship.

I mean, yeah, it’s objectively a pretty crappy film with an obnoxious protagonist, a shallow girlfriend, and a really cheesy alien invasion plot that is chock full of 'murican hubris. But when I originally saw it in theatres with the express purpose of mocking the heck out of it alongside my friends, I just… couldn’t.
In fact, I rather enjoyed myself. I loved the design of the alien ships, I felt that setting it in Hawaii was rather refreshing for some reason, I liked the side plot with the legless veteran, and above all, it seemed like there were subtle hints that the Aliens weren’t really hostile and just came to explore. I mean, that probably wasn’t the actual intent, but those clues were strong enough that there are many other people who share my theory.
(Still shunned)
Animals by Maroon 5 has been a guilty pleasure of mine. I don’t care much for the lyrics, but the way the song is composed really appeals to me.
Moved this to Entertainment, because I’ve been waiting for months to use my Master abilities.
A movie that’s a guilty pleasure for me is Batman & Robin. Yes, it’s stupid and ultra-campy…that’s why I like it. XD
Expanding my list into other mediums seems to be harder than I thought. It’s either so bad it’s good or I just don’t enjoy it. The only thing that comes to mind is High School of the Dead. It’s just a bad one trick pony, that one trick being sentient breasts. Kind of like Total Recall.
I really liked Batman and Robin and Batman Forever as akid. Of course, they’re widely regarded as franchise killers, but I still really enjoy them today. They’re so over the top, I don’t understand how anybody could even try to take them seriously. Whenever I rewatch them, I expect to see absurd, stupid, wacky adventures, and that’s how I’m able to enjoy them.
And for the record, I really like the look of Arnie’s Mr. Freeze suit.
I agree completely. To me, they seem like updated versions of the 60’s tv show, which I also enjoy.
I liked i, Robot (the Will Smith movie)
And yes, I’m aware that it deviates a lot from Asimov. I think it works as its own thing
I concur. As an adaptation it wasn’t that great, but as its own story, it was pretty darn fantastic.
I also concur with the both of you. Oddly enough, back when I was a kid I still knew of Asimov, but I just couldn’t stop watching the darn thing, it really made up my childhood, somehow.
Yeah, kill me.
My older brother: “Our lives are guilty pleasures!”
Me: “What he said.”
If this is just music, then it’s The Script and Avenged Sevenfold.
If it’s for everything, then I’m a sucker for magical girl anime, despite only having seen like 3 of them, and for romantic comedies, no matter how absolute toss they are.
