As a die-hard fan (I love "Atom Heart Mother"), I find that Gilmour's Pink Floyd stuff (a.k.a. post-Waters) is more musically pleasing. Waters' solo stuff, on the other hand, is more lyrically pleasing.
While you're right about many of these artists going into obscurity, it's wrong to also assume that their solo works were not good. I know that Roger Waters' solo album "Amused to Death" was much better than many of Floyd's albums.
I'm with you all the way on "Animals" being the best Floyd album (in fact, I think I might go write a list now :)). I think the "overrated" attribute comes from people who haven't really heard too much of Floyd.
Hmm... I have to admit I never really understood what the big deal about "Ferris Bueller" was.
However, I do give you credit for "A Fish Called Wanda". And while we're at the subject, I can't believe "MP & Holy Grail" is not on that list!!!
You surely know at least a few quotes from the movie!

Dave Foley was in "Blast from the Past"? Damn, now I'll have to rent it!
Jim, I don't think "The Mummy" will make your Guilty Pleasures list.
Basically, the movie just blows. It has one of the worst screenplays I've seen in a long time.
The last two just don't fit into the picture somehow... :)
Personal favorites or what?
Maybe it's not about baseball? Maybe it's about Kevin Costner? :-)
