A Knights Tale is something of a guilty pleasure of mine. It's not a great movie... but I love it so.

I feel no guilt in loving it. Easily a favorite movie.
... that tree sounds familiar[DOUBLEPOST=1397660575,1397660074][/DOUBLEPOST]
I agree. It's not great, and there are things about it that annoy me, but I'll still watch it if it's on.
I wouldn't personally go as far as calling it a favourite, but I've always enjoyed watching it.
Mr. Z loved this, but he's loved AKT as long as I've known him.
You're fired.
We are not starting that again.
Ohh yes we are! I have a quota to meet!
Yeah... about that. You haven't been meeting performance expectations.
You're fired.
Well shit.

Some expectations are easy to meet. Like, "don't come to work high," "don't pass out on the couch while guests are in the lobby," and "don't steal the daily deposits."
And yet...
And yet...
....on his prom night?
It may not be a great picture, but I would not rate it as a guilty pleasure; that's still The Pirate Movie for me.
I love A Knight's tale in the same way I love The Mummy (Brandon Fraser version) and the first Pirates of the Caribbean; for the record, I do loathe every sequel of both franchises with all my heart!

Easily, obviously.Yes but how could they dare to turn such a high minded work of Chaucer's into a piece of pop culture drivel.
^ sadly a legit sentiment from a former friend who hated the movie.
From the first few sounds of We Will Rock You I knew what to expect and I did not get disappointed, I really loved the use of Boys Are Back In Town!

I don't understand that shirt.

I think that's actually Terry Pratchett wearing the shirt. He's an old guy with a white beard, anyway. It's a bit of self-deprecating humor that he's here (at a con I assume) because they couldn't get their first three choices so they settled for him.
Me, I'd have checked on Patrick Rothfuss and Raymond Feist and maybe one or two others before him
Terry Pratchett wears that to some conventions.
Everyone would love to meet JRR Tolkien, he's dead.
Everyone would love to meet JK Rowling, she said no to the convention because she can make more money just by rolling around in her billions that she keeps in petty cash.
Phillip Pullman had other plans, so he couldn't come.
Fourth choice, and wearing the shirt, Terry Pratchett.
If you were joking, and actually understood the shirt and got me to type this for no reason... You're fired.
The "you're fired" joke is SO overplayed. But yeah, I didn't actually understand the context, so thank you.

I've heard that one as part of a series before.
The glass is:
Optimist: Half full.
Pessimist: Half empty.
Scientist: Completely full, half of water, half of air.
Engineer: twice the size it needs to be.
Opportunist: I drank the water.
Cynic: the waiter is slacking off. AGAIN.
