Your Turn

A movie or a tv show everyone seems to love or talk about but you really disliked and are afraid to say something.

    I'm not afraid to say I dislike anything. But I don't watch network TV, and most talk would normally be about shows seen there in general. So, all of those shows.

    I thought Stranger things was stupid. Also, I did not get into Westworld at all

    Till this day I never ever got the whole Matrix Trilogy craze. I found it the most boring piece of garbage. Yet everyone I know calls it a cinematic masterpiece.

    Same thing with Citizen Kane, saw it, liked it but did not think it was this magnificent piece of cinema.

    When have I ever been afraid to say something?

    Hint: Never.

    Most televisions shows are awful and even the "good" ones aren't all that good. I watch a lot of British tv. It's not that they don't make crap, they make plenty of crap. They just have more good programming than we have here.

    You're right about the Matrix. It was flash in the pan sci-fi kid stuff whose success was special effects driven.

    You're totally wrong about Citizen Kane. Like 10,000% wrong. Welles was a genius (as a filmmaker) and that movie is a masterpiece.

    Friends - let's laugh at embarrassing situations!
    Lost
    CSI, especially Miami. David Caruso has to be the worst actor in the history of the world. I can't watch him, ever.
    Game of Thrones - I read the first two books and gave up because nothing good EVER happened and every character I was interested in died, and, after two episodes, decided the show is no better.

    The porn DVD "Scatty Granny the Tranny #34"

    In #1 thru #32 and even #33 I agreed with everyone that she looked like a real woman, but NOT in #34, which is everyone's favorite because of the Christmas theme.

    Meryl Streep, although not afraid to say it. Unbelievably overrated in my opinion.

    Meryl Streep is good in many roles, but she is not good in every role.

    She can be such a mannered ham, constantly drawing focus to herself by twitching while others say their lines.

    And she may as well have been in Community Theater for Mama Mia, although that movie was hard to be good in that garbage.

    Star Wars! I didn't care for it as a kid, still don't like it now. Even my kids don't like it.
    I also don't get Spongebob Squarepants. Phineas and Ferb is so much better.
    Jimmy Kimmel is an automatic channel change.
    The Cranberries. I know, not a show or a movie. Whatever.

    This is Us. Buying into the hype, I watched the pilot and thought, "This show will be lucky if it survives the first month." I just don't get the popularity of a show that gratuitously tugs on your heartstrings--and the audience says, "more please."

    I got over it long ago to the point where if fanboys & tweeners are all (like a school of fish) singing a show's praises, I skip it. Pop-up popularity usually fizzles within a week or so. Why waste the time?

    You're proving the worthlessness of your opinion\, "slits" because whatever you may think of her, Streep's a very accomplished and skillful actress. Only an idiot and/or a pretentious twat would pretend otherwise.

    I hate Love Actually. I do not think it is that great or uplifting of a movie. I also do not understand the hype behind Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit movies. They are long and not compelling to me.

    Seinfeld. I found the show 99 percent tedious. The one percent of it that was funny was really funny, but I didn't have the time to wade through the rest of it. Which is why Seinfeld has the best clip shows -- they cut out all of the stupid stuff and left the funny parts.

  37. Lost in Translation, Black Swan -- hands down two of the worst movies ever. Lost in Translation convinced me that the Oscars are seriously fucked up and out of touch, and Black Swan only confirmed it.

  41. I can't stand it either. All these shows have the same formula with the musical montage at the end sung by alternative-voice-hipster-girlsingers that are so effing annoying too.

    Big Bang Theory, How I Met Your Mother, Friends all are not funny. I also do not like super hero movies or Star Wars. I also hated MASH mainly because the hair styles did not match the era.

    I can understand why someone would dislike "Downton Abbey" and find Aspie characters annoying. "Heroes" was better in its earlier seasons, and then I got bored.

    I tried to like "Star Wars" too (only because my brothers like it so much). I'm more of a "Star Trek" kind of girl (it was my preschool-age daytime telly thing). People think I'm a huge fan, though, just because I have one SW link on my blog (the Darth Vader "noooo!" thing). I'm thinking about removing the link now.

    I feel horrible saying this because Carrie Fisher just passed away, but the only scene I felt comfortable (gezellig) in was the Jabba the Hutt scene in the bar. Must've been all those deserty landscapes. Hated them. Unlike "Star Trek" where I love every single fucking scene on the Enterprise (but only up until the '90s versions, the 2000's felt cold/distant for me).

    I don't tend to be afraid of saying things when it comes to films/TV shows ( male characters, like: I strongly dislike Captain America, and I'm not afraid to say that I wouldn't have liked Doctor Strange so much if I were chronically healthy—it's true).

    I'm more scared of saying anything about female characters/actresses because when you say you dislike a female character, people tend to say, "you're just jealous" or "you're a self-loathing misogynist." It's just the course of conversations these days. Especially the ones with the "sweetheart" public image (because then you know they have an entire army of fools to attack you if you're caught disliking their fave). Even if you know for a fact they're a bitch IRL and weren't very nice to you when you met them. There's a local female celeb that YouTube keeps running her advertisements for lately, she reeks of I'm-better-than-everyone-else, can't stand her, can't wait to hit the "Skip Ad" button. Kept my annoyance to myself.

    When I think I'm at risk of being labelled a 'misogynist', I STFU about it. Because it's like, "I think Hillary should've focused her smearing on what kind of employer Trump is and how he hired illegal immigrants to build the Trump Tower instead of focusing on the gender-based issues. And she comes off like an elitist." Fiminists will be like, "you only hate her because she's a womyn!" And I'll say, "but I don't hate her just because she's a woman: I wouldn't have found Michelle Obama annoying if she ran for office." And they'd be like, "OMG now you're just pitting womyn agaynst each othyr!" You seriously can't win (or have a constructive conversation) with people these days.

    Game of Thrones, definitely. The Matrix. Risky Business. Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Silence of the Lambs. Firefly.

    Anything that's got a zombie in it or is dystopian. They've been done to death and not my taste to begin with.

    It's not the Aspie/ASD characters I find annoying, as we have a house full of ASD here so that's understandable. Its the female characters and the sad stereo types. BBT just irritates like a bikini full of sand. Grates.

    Kate Middleton. I live in Australia a lot of people still chat about the Royal Family, I once said I didn't think she was that pretty more that she's a bit boring and but above average looking. I nearly got my eyes scratched out and people said I was jealous. Be keeping that to myself next time. :/
