Guilty, Guilty, Guilty or a list of movies I should have liked but didn't

The Butcher's Wife - OMG. I actually spent money at the movies for this load 'o crap and so did my best friend. It is the bad movie against which we both compare all other bad movies. And in this case when I say bad I really mean bad. Usually when I say bad and I'm talking about movies I might mean actually good. You'll see what I mean. Unfortunately, in this list I really do mean bad...at least for me.
Blazing Saddles
Wizard of Oz (too scary when I was little...although as an adult the flying monkeys are the best part of the whole thing and they are always what I imagine when I say "when monkeys fly out my butt", yep I'm thinking of the flying monkeys from WOO.
Gone with the Wind (for Christ's sake, don't tell my mother)
Poseidon Adventure (the one with Shelly Winters and wasn't there a more recent one too? Didn't see it but I'll bet ya I might not like it.)
Any of the Airplane Movies - I just don't have that kind of sense of humor...
The disaster movies...of the Towering Inferno Ilk. They just stress me out too damn much.
Monty Python Movies (and that's weird because I LOVE Terry Gilliam)
Laurel and Hardy Movies (again....please don't tell my mother)
....gulp....this is a true sin, I know it....Charlie Chaplin movies
I totally despise any of the Jurassic Park Movies - and I don't know why....I loved the Land of the Lost on TV when I was a kid...totally had a crush on Will...hmmmm.
The Fly, not the one with Vincent Price, the one with Jeff Goldblum
Any of the King Kong Movies....I know, I know, I'm sorry just not for me.
Rocky Movies (no need for me to feel guilty about that right?) Boxing makes me feel sick...go figure - I love martial arts and martial arts movies.
Movies with a dog or an animal that is abused....this includes Old Yeller, uh huh.
War movies post WWII. Disclaimer Alert. I have seen some that I did like (and that is really the wrong word). So Not All War movies post WWII but some and probably mainly the ones that feature a lot of torture...I hate that....Except for the Movie Three Kings...I loved that movie and there was quite a load of icky torture...I closed my eyes.
House of 1000 Corpses....EWWWW. I had quite the visceral reaction to that one and I stupidly watched the whole damn thing.
The Original Hills Have Eyes...see House of 1000 Corpses reaction.
And Last But Not Least....nearly all musicals but most certainly OKLAHOMA! Errrrgh. And you can tell my mother I said so.

I am sure there are more...I will add to the list as they come to me. I am NOT saying these are bad movies although some of them may be. I like what I like just as everyone else does. It's what makes the world go 'round and I like that TOO! What movies do you secretly hate or maybe not even secretly...come on, I won't tell a soul....
