Unpopular Opinions

[Slap-Happy]

What are your unpopular film/tv opinions?

Examples include movies you like that other people hate, movies yu hate that other people love, sequels better/worse than originals, etc.

[Powder]

The Super Mario Bros movie, to me, is freakin' amazing. I think, had it not been branded a SMB movie, people would agree. On it's own, it's just so weird & awesome.

[Jester]

Kinda how I feel about the Robo-Cop reboot from this year.

[pennydreadful]

Oh Slap, it's like you made a thread just for me to air my hipster douchebaggery! :D

I hated all of Nolan's Batman movies... and I like Batman & Robin.

It's a matter of public record that I love Next Mutation.

I adore Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes, and even worse... I've never watched the originals...

[Jester]

I adore Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes, and even worse... I've never watched the originals...
WHAT!!!!! I recommend them. They are campy and fun. My favorite, aside from the original, Escape from (#3) is great....very funny and at the same time action packed and at times sad.

[pennydreadful]

You had me at "campy" Jester. :) I'll put them on my to-watch list.

[Powder]

It's a matter of public record that I love Next Mutation.


This too.

Here's another- I think Super Mario 64 sucks.

[Wildcat]

I think there was a topic like this already.

While I wouldn't say they are great movies I do prefer Batman Forever/& Robin over '89/Returns. The first two try to be serious but theres alot of dumb things. The later two seem more in tune with themselves imo.

I liked Godzilla '98, should have been named something else.

I don't think the Transformers movies are just mindless action. The in your-face-action crowds the more serious aspects, that, if were shown separately would be better received.

[pennydreadful]

I like Battlefield Earth. And Nightmare on Elm Street: Part 2. And Daredevil (since I only ever saw the director's cut). And the godawful Dungeons and Dragons movie with Jeremy Irons. I love Alien 3, which everybody else on earth seems to hate.

As a general rule, I don't like CG kids' movies (like Frozen and the endless Shrek sequels). I like Rob Zombie's Halloween better than the original (yeah, I said it). I think The Exorcist is totally overrated. I don't like Wes Craven's New Nightmare.

[ZariusTwo]

-I think the Nick TMNT show is terrible
-I think there has'nt been a good Transformers show since TF Animated
-I don't mind John Cena much at all these days
-I liked Torchwood's fourth season.
-I loved Transformers: Armada, if only for the Alexis/Starscream aspects
-I think the New Adventures of He-Man cartoon was one of the best things to come out of the MOTU franchise
-The Avengers, and most Marvel movies, while enjoyable, are cheesy, badly written, and highly overrated.
-Agents of SHIELD does not improve all that much near the end of the first season and is still woefully acted and underwritten.

[Hannurdock]

Queen of the Damned. Love it. Adore the soundtrack

[JamieH]

Neon Genesis Evangelion, One Piece, and Attack on Titan are overhyped, overrated, and mediocre at best.

[Cure]

Kinda how I feel about the Robo-Cop reboot from this year.

That movie is pretty good. Also I've said it before, but the Speed Racer movie is great.

[Slade]

Ain't there a thread about movies you hate that everyone else loves or something?

Anyway, some movies I hate that most people seem to love: Napoleon Dynamite, pretty much anything with Will Ferrell, The Hangover movies...

Since Zarious mentioned Cena, I like Cena, I hate Daniel Bryan.

I'm sure I can think of more later on.

[ObiWanFan4life]

- I like the Star Wars Prequels, Superman Returns, The Matrix Reloaded, and the Fourth Season of Angel.

- I think Shingeki No Kyujin (Attack on Titan) is a good, but MASSIVELY overrated anime.

- Juno is one of my favorite films.

- Darryl Dixon is the second best character on The Walking Dead.

- I don't think the 1998 Godzilla is as bad as people make it out to be.

- I Think Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is an underrated movie.

- I think Russell Crowe is fantastic in Les Misérablés.

- Monsters University is highly underrated.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

The transformers movies aren't anywhere near as bad as everyone makes them out to be.

[ObiWanFan4life]

The transformers movies aren't anywhere near as bad as everyone makes them out to be.

My thoughts exactly. They're repetitive and boated, but certainly not the worst movies ever made.

[Scrabblemouse]

The Super Mario Bros movie, to me, is freakin' amazing. I think, had it not been branded a SMB movie, people would agree. On it's own, it's just so weird & awesome.

I'm with you on this, I quite enjoyed that movie :D

[MrTMNT2012]

Spider-Man 3 is one of my favourite Superhero films of all time! :)

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

I thought Man of Steel was alot better than Iron Man 3

[Slade]

I love Man of Steel. Most Marvel films are overrated.

[Refractive Reflections]

I don't care much for the 90s TV shows Friends and Seinfeld, which almost everyone seems to love.

Plus, I find most Will Ferrell movies not funny since he typically plays very loud and obnoxious characters, but yet I'm supposed to.

[ZariusTwo]

I don't care much for the 90s TV shows Friends and Seinfeld, which almost everyone seems to love.

Continuous reruns of the former killed the show's appeal to me. I now know every line, every joke, and frankly never had the stomach for any season post-Vegas.

[Peanut]

Here's another- I think Super Mario 64 sucks.

Not sure what that has to do with TV/Movies. Either way you're wrong.

[Prowler]

Lost in Translation is a pretty boring movie. Also, Scarlett might be hot but she's not exactly a great actress.

Never laughed a single time while watching an episode of Friends.

[Wingnut]

I hated Seinfeld.

Tried to re-watch it recently. Thought I just didn't "get it" when I was younger.

Still hated it.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

I love Man of Steel. Most Marvel films are overrated.

This, I agree with

[Slap-Happy]

I think The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 is a million times more entertaining than the first one.

The Terminator is also better than T2.

Apocalypse Now was pretty boring.

Dark of the Moon is the best Transformers movie.

The Dark Knight Rises isn't very good.

And Nightmare on Elm Street: Part 2. And Daredevil (since I only ever saw the director's cut).

I also like Nightmare 2. It's the best Freddy makeup in the entire series. I also love the director's cut of Daredevil.

[Shred Head]

I know I'm going to piss off alot a people here on this one. I don't think the New Nick Turtles series is all that great. Its not awful but really if it was not part of the Turtles franchise I wouldn't even bother with it. Also Beast Boy is not funny he wasn't funny in Teen Titans and he's not funny here.

I prefer the X-Men movie franchise over the Marvel Studios stuff.

I don't like Naruto out of all the big Shonen Jump manga/anime titles over the years I find this to be the most overrated series. I liked it at the start and I still do find some of the supporting characters and world interesting but the main characters and main plots are some of the worst I have ever seen.

I like the Star Wars Prequels and I enjoy them and dare say one of them is just as good if not better then one of the main trilogy movies.

I don't think I enjoyed a sitcom in the last ten years. I think the last ones I enjoyed was probably Fraiser and Drew Carey show. I know there have been tons of popular ones but none that I liked. Oh and I hate the Middle.

I hate Will Ferrell movies I never thought any of them are good at all. Funny considering I liked his work on SNL.

This has nothing to do with movies or TV but a comic book despite its many many faults I actually like the Spider-Man Clone Saga and think the Spider-Man mythos was all the better for it. I also felt it was the wrong thing to do for Marvel to bury the Clone Saga and pretend it didn't happen.

I dont hate all the Bay Transformers movies there not great but what are people expecting out of a live action Transformers movie. Its a giant toy ad with goofy robots that transform into Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. With it being live action the human characters are always going to play a factor into the plot. Lets face it the best this franchise is is when humans have nothing to do with any part in the franchise Beast Wars and War and Fall of Cybertron games proof of that. As long as its not an Animated movie there never going to be as good or better then the classic toons. Age of Extinction is probably the best your going to get I mean no pot brownie mom no dogs ****ing no Jar Jar bots no Robot balls. Whats really to bitch about.

You are now my husband.:)

In all seriousness, I don't think Marvel ignore the Clone Saga outright, as they gave Kane his own comic for a spell, recently brought back The Jackle, for twelve years they published a book centered around a reality where Peter and MJ's daughter survived the saga, published an Ultimate comics adaptation, and published a mini-series based on the original notes for the Saga back in 2009. Ben Reily (as well as Kane and Spider-Girl) will also play a part in the Spider-Verse event later this year.

[pennydreadful]

Queen of the Damned. Love it. Adore the soundtrack

Ditto; and the soundtrack pretty much lives on my t-pod! :D

Lost in Translation is a pretty boring movie. Also, Scarlett might be hot but she's not exactly a great actress.

Not wanting to go too far off-topic here, but I found Scarlett a lot more attractive before she got her nose job. Ditto Jessica Alba.

[Slade]

Glad I'm not the only one who doesn't like Will Ferrell movies!


I also like the Transformers films. Even though I'll watch it, I think The Walking Dead is overrated.

[chrisdude]

I've watched the Star Wars movie series three times. I still don't really see the appeal. I keep thinking that it will click one day, but it never does. Episode III was the only time I've ever fallen asleep in a movie theater. And I definitely don't understand the love for Empire Strikes Back. Everything goes wrong - and then it ends. I don't see why it's everyone's favorite. It's a train wreck. It just sets the stage for the finale.

I'm in love with Superman Returns. I probably watch it four or five times a year. Geez, I might put it in now...

I hate Wolverine. Jackman is great in the role, but I loathed the character long before there were movies.

I've recently concluded that Nick is better than OT.

Watching Watchmen was a miserable experience.

I didn't like Firefly.

- I Think Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is an underrated movie.Yes. I grew up hating the old movie, and this one was a dream come true.

[arkangel]

Wow, you're like my Bizarro.
Empire is the best of the OT. It's a fact. Just ask me.
Firefly one of the best sci-fi series to ever to grace the tv screen.
Superman Returns is used in detox centres to help people throw up.
Totally unacceptable.. :x

[arkangel]

I have to watch Strange Days with Ralph Fiennes at least a couple times a year. It's like The Catcher in the Rye novel for Mel Gibson's character in Conspiracy Theory. If I see the Strange Days movie on a video shelf somewhere, I must immediately go home and watch it again.

I loved Enterprise and all it's nods to the original Star Trek regardless of continuity mistakes.
Firefly was the greatest sci-fi show ever. Fox gets rid of everything I love because it's run by some evil entity that knows how to hurt me.
I've enjoyed all the Transformer movies and secretly like Micheal Bay for the same reason I like any super confident, Type A, high end celebrity with a monster ego.
I root for the zombies in Walking Dead now that the characters have grown stale for me.
Avengers was mediocre at best and doesn't hold a candle to X-men D.o.f.p.
I really enjoyed Man of Steel and it took the bad taste of Superman Returns out of my mouth.

[Metalwolf]

I hate Turtles Forever. HATE.

I hate with a violent loathing any mention of a Turtles Multiverse. The only one that got it right was Nick TMNT, who called them dimensions.

Nick TMNT supplanted the OT for me as a favorite.

I consider the 80's Zelda cartoon to be my definitive Legend of Zelda. the only games that 'count' are the first two Legend of Zelda games made, with A Link Between Worlds having honorable mention. None of this lame 'timeline' business.

I consider Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom to be my favorite Indy movie. I don't have any interest in the others.

I hate Power Rangers. Thought it was hokey when the first show aired, still think it's hokey now.

I like the idea of Bat Nipples on Batman. I think they're cool.

[CyberCubed]

I don't like DC and Marvel comic books. There's no point in reading stories with no endings, and the "suits" make writers quit or change in the middle of a story and all the characters get worse year in and year out. Character deaths being reversed, retcons, having to buy 10 different comics for one story, etc. is all god awful.

I have to stick to the cartoons and movies to get my DC/Marvel fix. I know I'm missing out on a lot of stories that are never adapted for the cartoons or movies, but what can you do?

[pennydreadful]

Oh god yes; Kathryn Bigalow rules... have you seen Near Dark?

Another unpopular opinion... I think Hammer's Dracula AD 1972 is, in fact, the best of the Hammer Dracula series. I mean, it's not just a case of me adoring it (although I do) - I honestly can't understand why it was so critically panned.

[Hannurdock]

Ditto; and the soundtrack pretty much lives on my t-pod! :D

Mine too :D

[Mzx10484]

For me, David Lynch's "Lost Highway" is an outstanding dark adventure in the positive sense. Everything is perfectly in tune, images, people, music, scenes ...
The story is on some points, just at core sites, for the moment confusing and leaves room for interpretation.

My enthusiasm is not shared by many.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

I consider the 80's Zelda cartoon to be my definitive Legend of Zelda. the only games that 'count' are the first two Legend of Zelda games made, with A Link Between Worlds having honorable mention. None of this lame 'timeline' business.

Well, that certainly is a unpopular opinion.

[arkangel]

Oh god yes; Kathryn Bigalow rules... have you seen Near Dark?


I was only aware of Strange Days and Point Break by her. Since these are both favorites, I'll definitely check out her vamp movie at your suggestion and let you know what I think of it. Thanks :)

[ObiWanFan4life]

I think that The Sopranos is a better show than Game of Thrones.
.

[ZariusTwo]

Got some more

-I think the most recent Power Rangers seasons, Megaforce and Super Megaforce, are not as bad as the fandom thinks they are. Problematic? Yes. Wooden characters? Yes, attroticious editing? In spades, but it's still a lot of cheesy escapist fun with some narm charm to it

-I prefer to 'ship Lisa Simpson with Ralph Wiggum over Lisa and Milhouse in Simpsons fandom

-I liked the Spider-Man Unlimited animated series a lot. It dared to do something altogether very different with the character placing him in a more fantastical and weird little world with odd characterisations and interpretations of familiar faces. it's a shame Marvel were bankrupt at the time and the show lost to Pokemon in the ratings

[The Stryker]

Joss Whedon is mediocre at best and gets way too much praise for the success of Avengers.

[MrTMNT2012]

Game of Thrones is the most overrated show of all time!

[ZariusTwo]

Some more wrestling opinions

Vince Russo is'nt a bad writer at all.

Jeff Jarret is awesome and had one of the better lengthy title reigns of the 2000s

The TNA product on it's worst day has been better than the WWE for years

[Prowler]

Modern Family isn't funny.

Toy Story 2 was a letdown.

Princess Mononoke is pretty boring and preachy. Don't get all the praise for it.

[Kanon]

I like Jim Carrey playing the role of Ace Ventura.

I hate the facebook movie.

I rather knit a scarf than watch soccer.

[CyberCubed]

I never got into Wrestling, even as a kid.

[Prowler]

Agreed. I never got into superheroes and such due to there being many reboots and story arcs. Not to mention how each character has been written by dozens of different writers, thus making their power levels very inconsistent.

I'll just stick to your occasional Batman movie or video game.

[CyberCubed]

You should at least watch the cartoons. They have a clear beginning, middle and end and in shows reboots make sense.

[Prowler]

Never really got into superhero cartoons as a kid except for FW TMNT. I do plan on watching Batman: TAS someday, though.

[ZariusTwo]

I somewhat agree. I've only recently stopped with comics either because the characters are constantly set back years by various retcons or because the characters are woefully written. I don't know how DC and Marvel sustain a market with their readers, most of the books are just dire, don't get me wrong, there are bursts of brilliance here and there, but they're almost never to be found with the A-list heroes, and then of course these cult books end up getting axed.

[Redeemer]

This too.

Here's another- I think Super Mario 64 sucks.

Do you just not like 3d-mario games?????

[Leo656]

Superman Returns is used in detox centres to help people throw up.
Totally unacceptable.. :x

You and I have absolutely nothing to talk about. Ever.

In all seriousness, though, I'll throw my hat in the ring for Superman Returns as well. Routh played a much better Clark Kent than Reeve did; he didn't get to do much as Superman, so there's not much basis to compare those two, but he did fine. I really liked the acting overall; Spacey was amazing as Lex. The entire film was shot beautifully and is much more eye-pleasing than Man of Steel, which was a bit too dark. To me, the only thing "wrong" anyone could ever find with it was that it was a bit long, a bit melancholy, and, the thing I hear the most often as a complaint, "Superman never hit anyone". :roll: Seems like it failed to meet the arbitrary "fistfights and explosions" quota that people nowadays have for super-hero movies, but aside from that, I never got what people hate so much about it. If absolutely nothing else, it looks beautiful and the soundtrack was wonderful. I like Man of Steel just fine, too, but it sure didn't "feel" like a Superman movie, and Returns did, so I have a sentimental bias towards it. Returns had the right tone but was lacking action, while MoS had all the action but none of the "heart". Somewhere in the middle of those two, is the "Perfect" Superman movie. I hope someone in Hollywood figures that out one day.

Here's a controversial one: I really, really don't care for The Beatles. There's maybe three songs I like, and other than that, I completely don't give a sh*t.

I'm on Axl's side in the Axl Vs. Slash feud. And I really loved Chinese Democracy.

I kind of like Jerry Only Misfits better than Glenn Danzig Misfits.

I'm sure I'll come up with more later, I'm just busy. Literally nobody ever agrees with anything I say, so this should be easy. :lol:

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

Here's a controversial one: I really, really don't care for The Beatles. There's maybe three songs I like, and other than that, I completely don't give a sh*t.

Same here, apart from I don't really like any at all.

I mean, yeah they are popular and massive selling, but I've never found any song of theirs that I like or remotely sounds good.

[Leo656]

Yeah, I much prefer The Monkees. There's an other one for ya. Monkees over The Beatles, all day, bro.

[pennydreadful]

I think that The Howling III is totally underappreciated and that a lot of people don't get that it was meant to be a comedy.

I think that the paranormal romance genre (in tv, film and books) has had a negative effect on the horror genre. Monster movies are only just starting to get their bite back as a result of paranormal romance - it's a period in pop culture history that I really could've done without as I feel it brought nothing to the table.

I also think Joss Whedon is overrated; I do love Buffy but I feel that Whedon can really only write the same types of characters over and over again.

[Leo656]

I almost forgot: As others have said, I think Speed Racer was an underrated modern classic of cinema. Tons of movies try and adapt cartoons into live action and do a so-so job of it, whereas this film simply WAS a live-action cartoon, every single bit as over-the-top as the source material. It looked friggin' amazing, too.

Yet another "I don't know what people want" kind of movie. I could kind of understand people not being into it, since Speed Racer in general is pretty niche, but I'm genuinely baffled by the negativity. I've heard all the reasons given... I just can't agree with, like, any of it at all. It's really almost perfect. I know it's sort of finding an audience on DVD in recent years, but that's not gonna get the sequel made, unfortunately. :ohwell:

[Netkeeper]

The Super Mario Bros movie, to me, is freakin' amazing. I think, had it not been branded a SMB movie, people would agree. On it's own, it's just so weird & awesome.
Haha, my oldest brother feels the same way! Honestly, I don't feel strongly either way about it, but it IS funny.

-I think the Nick TMNT show is terrible
-I loved Transformers: Armada
I never got into Wrestling, even as a kid.
Seconding both of these quotes. Had no idea it was unpopular to like Armada, though! [Maybe it's because it's the only Transformers I know anything about.] Anyway, a few opinions from the opinionated Netkeeper:

I cannot watch Yu-Gi-Oh [original series] subbed. The dub was just such a huge part of my life during the time it aired that I can't watch it any other way, even though I am fully aware of how bad it is.
There are lots of fun casual games out there. It isn't poison just because it's a casual game.
I love Digimon the Movie. I hope you know what a semi-conductor is.
I like American cheese. [What? I've almost never met anybody that actually LIKES it. It's not my favourite but I still like it.]

[ZariusTwo]

Had no idea it was unpopular to like Armada, though! [Maybe it's because it's the only Transformers I know anything about.]
[/LIST]

In the begining it was, some took issue with the annoying kids and the Pokeformers premise, and endless filler, then Unicron came into the picture and everyone got a little more behind it, plus Starscream, as mentioned, took a level in badass and stole the show

[Netkeeper]

I've been told annoying humans were always present in Transformers. :V

[Slap-Happy]

Poligomy is perfectly fine.
A) The thread is about unpopular opinions in Movies and TV.

B) What the f*ck

[Powder]

Also, you're like 13. WTF

[CyberCubed]

- I never cared for Transformers. I have not watched one cartoon or movie based on Transformers.

- I lost interest in Power Rangers very quickly. I also remember being angry that Power Rangers was killing TMNT in the ratings, so that might have something to do with it. But overall the show isn't interesting compared to other kids shows that have repetitive stories and incompetent villains. Both TMNT and Kanto-era Pokemon did this better.

- I was happy when Pokemon came out because it took ratings away from Power Rangers. I felt like Pokemon was my "revenge" on Power Rangers for killing TMNT, so I remember cheering when Pokemon was killing Power Rangers in ratings. Yeah...I know.

- Never got into Wrestling even as a kid. No real interest.

- Never got into watching sports on TV of any kind.

- I barely watch any anime outside of Pokemon and DBZ when I was younger

- I've never watched any of this big cable shows, like The Walking Dead, Game of Thrones or any of those type of shows.

[Shred Head]

I've been told annoying humans were always present in Transformers. :V

No not at all Beast Wars had cave men but they were in like two maybe three episodes tops. Beast Machines had none and many of the comics and Videogames really don't have many humans or if they do they don't make much of an impact. Armada was kinda the series that brought humans back and in a bigger way then before. So I kinda got why the show was hated at first. I myself liked it though sure its not the best series but its nowhere near the worst.

[AT-Man]

Fantastic Mr. Fox is a great, but I don't like any other movie by Wes Anderson.

[Leo656]

I can't stand football. Which, in America, particularly the Northeast, means you may as well be a woman, apparently. I also think people who call out of work because they're hung over from "partying" watching the Super Bowl should be fired, as they would be for calling out with a hangover the other 364 days a year.

Oh, here's a big one: I don't pay much attention to sports, but I'm 100% a Mets guy and absolutely hate the Yankees. It's always been that way, and I'm not entirely sure why.

[Prowler]

Never liked Buffy The Vampire Slayer much.

Don't give a damn about all those cop, hospital(except House and Scrubs) and women that talk to dead people tv shows that seem to have become pretty popular on tv in the past decade or so.

[ObiWanFan4life]

I think the Image TMNT Comics are terrible. Here's the controversial one: I think that parents who are irresponsible with their children (EX: Buying them iPhones when they're too young to have them, not monitoring what they watch/listen to, being to strict, or not strict enough) are the worst.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

I haven't read any of the Image TMNT Comics, but I agree with you on the parents thing.

[Leo656]

I don't care for the Image TMNT books much, either.

I'unno how I forgot this one for so long, as it's probably the biggest and most unpopular opinion of all: I absolutely, positively, can not stand The Rock. In anything.

[ObiWanFan4life]

I think The remake of War of The Worlds is a fantastic movie.

[Prowler]

I don't care for the Image TMNT books much, either.

I'unno how I forgot this one for so long, as it's probably the biggest and most unpopular opinion of all: I absolutely, positively, can not stand The Rock. In anything.

Unpopular wrestling opinions? Well, I don't even know where to begin...

- Not a very big Shawn Michaels fan.

- Edge > Christian

- Owen Hart wasn't that great of a talent.

- Goldberg wasn't a crap wrestler like many seem to believe so.

- King Booker was hilarious. Much preferred him to street thug Booker T.

- I like Sheamus.

There's several more but these are the main ones that came off the top of my head for now.

[ZariusTwo]

I enjoyed The Miz's run as WWE Champion and felt he had a lot more life in him as a main-eventer, his tag team with R-Truth was great entertainment and it's a shame that after the burial against Rock and Cena as well as R-Truth's suspension at the time brought an end to Miz's relevancy.

Likewise I like Alberto Del Rio's reigns as WWE Champion and World champion.

The Corre had probably the best theme in WWE in 2011. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NcU0JjSE2g)

[Leo656]

Prowler: I can agree with a lot of that, but not Booker and Owen. I just didn't care for the King Booker gimmick (although it sure helped add a couple years to Booker's career). I thought Owen was great, but his overall lack of enthusiasm for the business probably hurt, as well as blowing out his knee in the early-90s.

Different strokes, I guess. I'm all the way with you that Michaels was overrated and Goldberg underrated, though. Jannetty was every bit the talent Michaels was, he just wasn't friends with the right people and too often let his vices get the best of him, which he himself readily admits to.

For my own unpopular wrestling opinions, Hogan over Flair, every day forever. Only further reinforced by being in the business for the last few years. Every single person in the biz will tell you, "The guy who makes the most money is 'The Best Worker', regardless of how many moves they do or don't have." I love them both, but Hogan's a global mega-star 20 years after his last super-good match, and Flair's only known by wrestling fans. "Hulk Still Rules", brother.

[Prowler]

I didn't mind Miz's reign either, Zarius. I liked Alberto Del Rio at first, even though i found him quite over pushed.

[Leo656]

Getting away from wrestling opinions before the non-fans throw a fit, I love the Silent Hill movie. Some plot deviations aside, it's exactly like the games. One of the most spot-on adaptations I've ever seen of anything.

[ZariusTwo]

I didn't mind Miz's reign either, Zarius. I liked Alberto Del Rio at first, even though i found him quite over pushed.

I agree he was sometimes pushed a little too much, and too QUICKLY at that, he was enhanced by the comical Ricardo sidekicking and being the right kind of overbearing to work for me, at least in the short term as champion

[Prowler]

Prowler: I can agree with a lot of that, but not Booker and Owen. I just didn't care for the King Booker gimmick (although it sure helped add a couple years to Booker's career). I thought Owen was great, but his overall lack of enthusiasm for the business probably hurt, as well as blowing out his knee in the early-90s.

Different strokes, I guess. I'm all the way with you that Michaels was overrated and Goldberg underrated, though. Jannetty was every bit the talent Michaels was, he just wasn't friends with the right people and too often let his vices get the best of him, which he himself readily admits to.

For my own unpopular wrestling opinions, Hogan over Flair, every day forever. Only further reinforced by being in the business for the last few years. Every single person in the biz will tell you, "The guy who makes the most money is 'The Best Worker', regardless of how many moves they do or don't have." I love them both, but Hogan's a global mega-star 20 years after his last super-good match, and Flair's only known by wrestling fans. "Hulk Still Rules", brother.
Well, Owen was pretty good in the ring, no question about it, but I've never found him really that charismatic or great on the stick. Never saw him as WWF/World champion material.

Hogan is the greatest of all time since wrestling, like you've said, is about star power and no one tops Hogan in that department. And speaking of Hogan, contrary to popular belief, he wasn't terrible in the ring. That being said, I've never been a fan of Hogan.

Is Edge > Christian an unpopular opinion? I thought everyone ever likes Edge better. I can't stand Christian anymore, nor Miz. And I think Kofi Kingston should have the WWEWHC title even for a day.

[Leo656]

I think the Daredevil director's cut is a pretty good movie.

Masters of the Universe was an underrated 80s sci-fi classic. Yes, it did a lot of Star Wars riffs, but it also deeply paid homage to Jack Kirby's "Fourth World" saga (the portal the Cosmic Key opens up to other worlds is, essentially, a Boom Tube; Skeletor being a pretty clear Darkseid stand-in, etc.). That was done on purpose, and I think when people take that into account - which, admittedly, not many would think to without knowing to look for it, but still - it adds a new angle to the movie. I think people got way too hung up on how different it was from the cartoon. I'm so mad we never got that sequel. People forget, that was one of the first movies to have a well-known "stinger" at the end of the credits, teasing the sequel (which, sadly, never got to be). I still remember that going over huge in the theater when I was a kid.

[ZariusTwo]

Agreed there Leo, I love MOTU. It was distinctly darker than the cartoon at the time, full of stuff that stuck with and shaped me as a kid into the adult I am now. And that post-credits scene scared the pants off of me at the time.

The Van Damme Street Fighter movie and the Stallone Judge Dredd movie are likewise great entertainment value that I think history is already being kinder to as the years go by. I recently watched a fanedit of the latter that scaled back a lot of the more evident problems in the film and it's a more pleasant ride...plus you have to appreciate it for packing in so much of the franchise lore in that amount of time. I can't fault anything that has ABC, Mean Machine Angel, the Cursed Earth, and Rico crammed into the mix. It juggled a lot and juggled it well and you won't quite find films that bonkers again unless it's, say, a Marvel flick, and even those don't quite get it right.

Hate it. Just like the chicks. And the wife loves it, so I have to see it. But if it were legal to shoot a person in the face just for being super-f*cking-annoying, Ashton Kutcher would be right near the top of my list. Not just for that show, for pretty much everything.

There's another fairly unpopular opinion. I can't stand that guy. Justin Timberlake, either.

Guilty as charged! I just found the inclusion of Monica from Friends and her derpy boyfriend to be rather superfluous - I want to see He-man and his gang, not these schmucks.

I also hate modern sitcoms like That 70's Show, How I Met Your Mother, all that sort of thing. Give me old stuff like Golden Girls, or give me death!

I hate King of the Hill and Family Guy and Modern Dad or whatever it's called.

Even worse... I hate The Simpsons. I know, I'll be burnt at the stake for saying that - I know I'm guilty of using Simpsons references purely because it's so ingrained in modern pop culture and I watched it growing up, but I just reached the point where it was no longer funny, and now I can't even enjoy the older seasons because of it.

I also detest Armageddon, despite the fact that it's generally considered to be one of Bay's better films. I found it trite, formulaic, and the idea of anyone shoving animal crackers down my panties just makes me itchy to think about it! :lol:

[Metalwolf]

I don't like That 70s Show.I HATE That 70's Show. I'm glad that I no longer watch or have a set up TV just so I never see that trash.

My other unpopular opinions...

I think Game of Thrones is overrated. Oh wow, a bunch of medieval people battle some other group then sit around and boink each other. How exciting. :roll:

I hate Walking Dead, I tried reading the comics and could not get past the part of Rick's wife being pregnant. The survivors act like turds, I have more sympathy for the zombies, which seem to have more humanity then the survivors do, and that's saying a lot.

The only Super Mario Brothers I liked was the movie, and some of the episodes of the cartoon. I do not care for the video games.

[Leo656]

^^ Actually - and knowing only a tiny little bit about The Walking Dead - as I understand it, pretty much the entire point is that the humans are the real monsters of the situation. So apparently you get it, even if you're not into it. :) I don't really pay attention to it myself, I only played the game.

[T-U-R-T-L-E POWA!]

Here is one of my opinions that would be considered weird in general but I think around here might actually be appreciated by a lot. Mark Hamill is EASILY the BEST JOKER OF ALL TIME. FOREVER. Heath Ledger is an OK Joker but not NEARLY as cool as Hamill's. Hamill nails the laugh and the fun of what I think the Joker is. Ledger was more for Nolan fanboys that don't have a long history with Batman.

Also Bane was handled absolutely disgracefully! The voice. The stupid mask thing. The militant vibe they went for. All of it was just so ridiculous. I hate when characters get totally butchered which is why I hate the thought of a certain movie that is coming up which will remain anonymous but is being produced by a man whose last name rhymes with "gay". I'm just gonna leave it at that because a comment about him might be "explosive". Oops have I said too much?

Mark Hamill is King of the Jokers, as far as I'm concerned.

Also, if you want to talk unpopular opinions - I'm gonna go ahead and say that Ledger's Joker is vastly overrated and really isn't all that.

[Leo656]

I like Jeff Jarrett better than Ric Flair. I honestly think his work looked better. I also think the way he booked himself on top the first few years in TNA was 100% justified, since he was literally the only guy he could trust with the Title and not abandon ship for Vince for more money.

^^^Saying stuff like that can get you killed, in some places. The Carolinas, for example.

Can't agree with this line, because I love Ledger's Joker and I do have history with Batman. I can say that I think Hamill does the best Joker because of his voice and it's always animated.

As far as Bane, he's a mercenary, so the military vibe worked for me. I thought the mask was cool, and worked for the vibe of the films, since there wasn't actually any Venom being pumped into him. I would have preffered the luchador mask and the actual Venom of course. In my opinion, I think he had some cold ass lines in the film too. Though, all of that may actually be an unpopular opinion.

Actually i am a hardcore Batman fan and have a history with Batman and love the Nolan films as with Nolan's Joker he was playing joker with the name of Ledger unlike Jack who was too old for the role as Jack was just playing Jack with Joker make-up. Nolan understood the character.


Michael Bay and Roland Emmerich are awesome directors and i'm a huge fan of them.

Pauly Shore is hilarious to me and Jury Duty is one of my favorite movies/comedies since i saw it in theaters in junior high.

Star Wars Episode III was the best of the prequels.

Pearl Harbor is badass and one of my favorite movies, i saw it 5 times in theaters.

I don't like Family Guy either. Used to back when i was 15 but cant' really stand it these days. Its humor is so simple and forgettable. Don't like American Dad either and really disliked the couple of episodes I've seen of Cleveland Show.

I also think Family Guy is one of the most worthless, mindless, and absolutely stupid shows of all time. Seth McFarlane is horrible and all of his comedy is so base that I feel like I'm in 5th grade again just listening to it. Every time someone tries to tell me about something "funny" they saw on Family Guy I just stare blankly while my time is wasted. If you want to see ACTUAL intelligent animated comedy I would say watch King of the Hill. It has good plots and character development and a level of intelligence beyond that of a 10 year old. Mike Judge is Alfred Hitchcock compared to Seth McFarlane. McFarlane is the Michael Bay of animation to me. A one trick pony that keeps doing the same thing over and over and people keep buying it. Which is fine because after all this is just opinion anyway.

[Refractive Reflections]

There's another fairly unpopular opinion. I can't stand that guy. Justin Timberlake, either.

I do think he has some talent and some good songs, but I think he's overrated in being considered an "icon" of sorts already (with MTV's Micheal Jackson Vanguard Award in 2013); especially when he was more or less the "default" pop male artist when there were no others to compete with during his popularity.

...As for his character, the fact that he abandoned Janet Jackson and left her out to dry after the 2004 Superbowl incident (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_XXXVIII_halftime_show_controversy#Criti cism), considering technically he was the one who removed the breastplate, says a lot right there. But it's not surprising, because the way he couldn't stop whining and throwing shade publicly at Britney Spears after their breakup two years earlier, was already hinting a lot about his annoying character.

[Netkeeper]

I find Family Guy to more or less be the fast food of comedy animation. There are some legitimately funny moments, but for the most part it's just junk. American Dad isn't too bad, though.

[Shred Head]

I don't care about the Soccer world cup at all. Tell the truth I just don't like sports at all normally I can stay away from it but it seems everyone is mentioning it lately even people who don't normally care about sports.

This isn't a Movies/TV Opinion but it is unpopular. I recently got Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD for free with Mario kart 8 and man is this the most overrated game in the franchise. Sure its good but I would not put it on a top five best Zelda games list.

Heres one that damn near got me skinned alive by the Dragonball fandom. I dont care that much for Masako Nozawa voice work in Dragonball Z. I was fine with her as child Son Goku and Son Gohan but playing them as grown ups was a terrible move. Outside of Raditz she played ever biological Son family member and even Turles. Yeah that's way to much.

Tried watching Firefly and see what the big deal was. Yeah didn't care for it also did anyone else get the feeling Joss Whedon ripped off Outlaw Star?

Dude to hate on Wind Waker is just immoral! Did you get far in to it and see how deep the exploration goes? Did you get to sneak around the Forbidden Fortress? If I were going to name a Zelda game that sorta disappointed me I would have to say the last 3rd of Skyward Sword. It just became WAY too much of a fetch quest. The fight with Demise was awesome though.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

Superman III honestly isn't that bad.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

Transformers: Age of Extinction is awesome.

[Hannurdock]

I love Superman 3.

I remember a film called Solarbabies which was really fantastic. I loved it in my teens. It must be one of the most unpopular films ever because I've never seen it come to light. Even on You Tube, there is only a foreign version of it.

Skyward Sword disappointed me as well almost as much as Wind Waker but what edge it out for me was the great art style and kick ass boss battles and I really enjoyed the story. Wind Waker yeah it was great in some areas like the Forbidden Fortress but I hated that damn boat with a passion and it just ruins the game for me. Last but but not least I still don t care for the art design for the game I think Cel Shading was the right step just not this art style. I don't mind the Zelda games having some goofiness and wacky designs but I think this one took it just to far for me.

[ZariusTwo]

I thought the Goliath Chronicles season of Gargoyles was, while not the best, very passable

I love both that and the short-lived tv show:)

[DarkLightDragon]

I don't care for Sonic SatAM.

It might be because my childhood was centered more around AOSTH, the OVA, and to an extent Underground when it comes to Sonic, but for whatever I never knew of SatAM's existence until I got into the Internet.

And even when the DVD set came out, I gave it a try to see what all the hubbub was about and...it didn't grab me.

Rotor, Bunnie, and Antoine didn't particularly stick out to me enough to care about them, Tails might as well not existed at all since he barely did s**t (I don't care if he's a small kid, he was a small kid in AOSTH too and yet I recall him contributing a great deal there than here), Sally got on my nerves really quick, and Robotnik was the typical generic 80's/90's villain that just happened to be voiced by Jim Cummings (which IMO, can't top his awesome villain voice for Nega Duck from Darkwing Duck).

And it's not like I dislike it for being so different than what I grew up with or come to known about Sonic, I just didn't find it very engaging as a cartoon show in general.

[ObiWanFan4life]

I think that Staind and Linkin Park are criminally underrated bands.

[CharmedSerenity]

This is a fair opinion for the most part, but I think you might have been tainted by the fanboy worship surrounding that show to truly enjoy it. Which is a shame. I didn't discover SatAM until I got the internet either, as much like you my childhood world of Sonic was AoStH and the ova [I knew about Sonic Underground but didn't watch it, thought it was stupid :V nowadays I don't mind it as much as I used to] but it is pretty unfortunate you didn't like Sally in particular! She was the reason SatAM was so amazing for me.

Robotnik definitely was pretty generic in his villainousness, but I think the darker tone of the show helped excuse/balance that. He worked wonderfully in his universe since he was such a credible threat. SatAM is basically the 2k3 of Sonic, or the Digimon Tamers of Sonic. Took itself more seriously and had a darker world, which isn't to everyone's liking.

[DarkLightDragon]

Or maybe it just wasn't to my liking. I didn't pay much heed to this 'fanboy worship' for it to affect any enjoyment I had for the show.

At best I can sum it up with one phrase is, "It's okay, but I ultimately didn't care for it." Never said it was overrated. Never asked "why do people like this again?" I see the appeal it has for some, but again, I just wasn't as enthralled.

[ZariusTwo]

I used to love them, and I know a lot of people still love the Archie Sonic books, but I feel like they just tainted Satam's charm for me, especially when the book became a routine soap opera. Ian Flynn's done good things since becoming writer, leading us away from all of that, but nowadays I barely read them, and the recent reboot has'nt helped matters

The UK Fleetway Sonic The Comic (and no, this does not include the creator-approved online continuation) I feel was far superior to Archie, and had better creative attempts at adapting the video games at the time, its' origin for Sonic and Robotnik (Eggman be damned) are the definitive ones for me, and it has the least chickified take on Amy Rose seen in any medium.

[Netkeeper]

OH MAN YES, Fleetway was such a great take on Sonic. I really need to reread it some day, I loved it.

Death to Smootchie was hilarious, well acted and just plain wierd.
MadTV was amazing from 1996-2000, SNL was meh.
The TMNT Archie Series is preachy and not at all enjoyable, much prefer the Mirage ones.
Toby McGuirre is perfect as Peter Parker.
Andrew Garfield is perfect as Spider-man.
John Leguizamo was perfect as the Clown in the Spawn movie.
Kevin Spacey was fantastic as Lex Luthor and the best thing about that movie.
TMNT 3 was better and more entertaining than TMNT (2007) because of the Casey Jones portrayal and the Tarzan Boy theme.
John Cena is awesome. I hated the guy at first (03-09) but his energy passion and love of the bussiness really shows. Haters gonna hate, but dude is awesome and deserves everything he has.
I love the guy and what happened isn't all his fault but at the end of the day Bret Screwed Bret.
The Chicago Code was the best show to ever end in one season and Chicago Fire and PD aren't half as good.
Batman Forever is siginificantly better than the Dark Knight Rises, at least Batman isn't a whiny b***h in that one.

PAUL DINI: "They're all for boys 'we do not want the girls', I mean, I've heard executives say this, you know, not [where I am] but at other places, saying like, 'We do not want girls watching this show."

So long as TMNT is perceived to be a Boys Show, I'm sure it'll be fine. The moment it gives the appearance of being more popular with women/girls the greater the risk it'll be canned. Because you see, it's okay for girls to watch boy shows, but boys won't want girls shows. Or at least, that's how the marketing departments see it.

See also how hard it was for the Avatar Guys to get Korra made.

Oh duuuude, I'm so with you on Power Girl... the rants that I've ranted over her boob window! I've actually gone off Western comics periodically, off and on, for years because the art style for their female characters can just be so... infuriating to me sometimes.

You should check out Batgirls' new outfit though; it manages to be cute and practical at the same time.

Jury Duty is a hilarious movie

[Lou 500]

I thought the first Transformers film was good.. I suspect it was because Spielberg was the producer and influenced Bay's direction. Or it may be because I'm not a Transformers fan and therefore felt no pain.

I enjoyed Sonic Underground as a child.

I enjoyed the Tom and Jerry Movie as a child.

I love the film AI and it's one of my favourites.

I revisted the original TMNT cartoon not long ago and found it too silly and dated to be enjoyable.

Despicable Me was dull. Despicable Me 2 was even worse.

[Netkeeper]

I enjoyed the Tom and Jerry Movie as a child.
Apparently, so did I. My oldest brother told me putting that movie on was the only way to get me to sit still when he'd babysit me.

[pennydreadful]

Striptease is a totally underrated film.

[Leo656]

Striptease is a totally underrated film.

YES! I actually think it's really funny. I mean, the plot is ridiculous, and the movie only exists so Demi could make a quick buck showing off her boob job before they started to sag, but the characters are so much fun to watch that it redeems the entire thing. Definitely a case of the actors playing their parts so well that it elevates an otherwise lackluster project.

Plus, y'know. Her cans.

That one's way up there on my list of "Quirky Fun" movies, like Clay Pigeons or Big Lebowski. "So, what's this movie about?" "Oh, hell, I don't f*cking know. It's just so incredible to watch. These people... are insane." :lol: I like that kinda thing. I have a ton of movies I can barely get anyone to sit through with me because they're more about characters than plot. :P

[ObiWanFan4life]

I Think That Star Trek Voyager is one of the best iterations of the franchise.

[ZariusTwo]

I enjoyed Sonic Underground as a child.

I got the box set of this a year or so back, I love the Knuckles storyline. The only annoying thing about it are the songs.

I Think That Star Trek Voyager is one of the best iterations of the franchise.

The first two seasons of that are great fun. Wish it had been more of the same for the whole run.

Oh, and I know it was once brought up by Nostalgia Critic, but...Pound Puppies: Legend of Big Paw is far superior to the cartoon it's based on and if it were made as a MLP:FIM episode, I don't think anyone would be complaining about it.

[fridaynightdestination]

I like the Paranormal Activity movies. And even though they make tons of money, I feel like I'm the only one who likes the Transformers movies. I feel as if people expect too much from them. They are just simple popcorn action flicks, nothing more.

[Netkeeper]

I love Paranormal Activity and the found footage style in general.

[Cure]

I didn't even know the popular opinion was to dislike those movies. I thought it was pretty split.

[CyberCubed]

I prefer animation over live action. I barely ever watch real TV shows. Star Trek and Buffy are among the few I watched.

[Netkeeper]

I prefer animation over live action. I barely ever watch real TV shows. Star Trek and Buffy are among the few I watched.
I don't watch much live action either. I'm more likely to watch a live action movie, but as for series, I think the only ones I've really been able to enjoy are House, Scrubs, Dead Like Me, and Boston Legal.

[CyberCubed]

I tend to get bored of most sitcoms quickly. I don't get how people can watch over 100 episodes of the same family or 30 year old singles making sex jokes.

In short bursts it's OK, but I just youtube the funny moments.

[Slade]

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I only like the ninja turtles for the turtles, splinter, and shredder/foot clan. I don't care about April, Casey, Krang, etc....

[fridaynightdestination]

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I only like the ninja turtles for the turtles, splinter, and shredder/foot clan. I don't care about April, Casey, Krang, etc....

http://sd.keepcalm-o-matic.co.uk/i/keep-calm-cause-you-are-not-alone.png

I feel mostly the same way. When I watch TMNT I wanna see Leo, Donnie, Mikey, Raph, and Splinter fighting the Foot Clan. April and Casey get in the way. While there have been some cool story arcs with The Kraang in the 1987 and 2012 shows, they are a little annoying at times and they should stick to The Foot. I don't hate April, The Kraang and Casey in any incarnation, I just care a lot more about the turtles a lot more. Like, this will never happen, but if they ever killed off April and Casey, and got rid of the Kraang, I would be like "Ok then." I would be shocked that they killed them off, but I wouldn't really be too upset about it. But if they ever killed off Splinter or one of the turtles, I'd be mad :lol: But yeah I agree with you on this one

[ZariusTwo]

I used to be very much against it, but I've warmed a lot to the idea of April dating one of the Turtles (though not Donatello, I prefer her with Mikey), but...yeah, I don't really see the point in her much anymore in the franchise other than to repeat the same routine with Casey, which we've seen so many times. She's great in her role, but there's more fresh dynamics to be had in exploring her as more than just the big sister type. Human/Turtle relationships are in themselves an unpopular opinion with the hardcore long-term fanbase, but I don't mind it being a popular one with fresh fans as it makes the narrative itself significantly more fresh.

Put it this way, if April is more into the Turtles, she can stay, just go one show or so without using Casey Jones, especially since you can't really do his type of character and his motivations true justice in a cartoon without watering him down (that said, 4Kids just about managed it, but it was'nt without it's hang-ups, and 80s 'toon Casey is hilarious in spite of the drastic watering down)

[Netkeeper]

I wouldn't mind April with Mikey or Raph, but not Leo or Don. 2k12 soured me on the idea of April and Don, and I just can't see Leo/April being a good idea either, maybe because Leo's the leader.

That said, she's still an important character in the franchise regardless of her romantic affiliations. A female character's worth does not revolve around who she kisses.

[ZariusTwo]

You're right, I possibly came off a bit of a pig saying what I said there:ohwell:

[Leo656]

Eh, what's a little chauvanism ever gonna hurt, anyways? Amirite?

After all, if writers get bored with stories of April's love life, they could always find fertile ground in exploring her talents in the fields of laundry-doing and sandwich-making. :eyemouth:

[Redeemer]

I do not like Star Wars or Lord of The Rings They are so boring I have never been able to finish an entire movie of either Franchise.

Don't shoot me
:tcouch:

[pennydreadful]

Totally - I mean it's got boobs, a great soundtrack, and everyone just seems to be having fun with their roles and embracing the silliness. Plus, it had Demi Moore before she went totally anorexic. I dunno, I just accept that I have bizarre taste in movies; something like this, I think is great, but if you asked me if I was into popcorn flicks, I'd say "hell no". Call me cray-cray.

Speaking of oddball films I love that everyone else hates... I like The Island of Dr Moreau (the Val Kilmer one). The troubled production history on that film is absolutely fascinating to me.

[Leo656]

Semi-related to that/semi-on-topic: I really like the movie "Clay Pigeons". Vince Vaughn could actually act pretty good before he got all fat and stuff. His character in that movie is one of my all-time favorite movie psychopaths. you could know that guy. And you fall completely in love with him, even though you know for a fact he's a serial killer, you kinda want to see him get away with it. I don't know if it's an "unpopular" movie, but it definitely flew under a ton of people's radar and nobody ever knows what I'm talking about when I mention it.

I'unno, I like all kinds of movies and stuff, the same stuff everyone else likes, but I also kind of make it a point to really appreciate things that most people don't take time to notice, like really obscure stuff.

[Prowler]

I do not like Star Wars or Lord of The Rings They are so boring I have never been able to finish an entire movie of either Franchise.

:tcouch:
Disagree about LoTR but I've never cared much for Star Wars either.

[Leo656]

I don't think "Ernest Goes To Camp" gets enough credit.

[Jester]

The Simpson's is still funny.

That's right...I said it!

[Kanon]

Some other unpopular Opinions:

- The only good thing about the movie "the life of Pi" was the animation of the Tiger.
(I always wished that the guy would be too exhausted to swim and fell into the water :evilgrin:)

- "Hugo Cabret" was so boring I fell asleep. (for real!)

- I rather watch "Gremlins" than any Star Wars movie

[Leo656]

I actually like "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" better than "Temple of Doom". I never liked Temple. "Last Crusade" is my favorite, though.

[ObiWanFan4life]

I Think that The Danny Boyle movie "The Beach" is underrated.

[Jester]

Kristen Wiig is very overrated.

[Slade]

I actually like "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" better than "Temple of Doom". I never liked Temple. "Last Crusade" is my favorite, though.

I don't like any of them..

[MrTMNT2012]

I think The Walking Dead Video Game and Comic Series are leaps and bounds better than the TV Show!

[Leo656]

I don't like any of them..

Ouch.

I always liked Marty Jannetty more than Shawn Michaels. It's a shame, they both had the same "personal problems", but Michaels had more friends in high places, so he's a "legend" and Jannetty's a punchline. That makes me sad.

Not that they both weren't talented, I just think when politics becomes the sole variable in how successful one guy is over another guy, it's a shame.

[ZariusTwo]

I am not wowed in the slightest by Guardians of the Galaxy's trailers and previews. Looks like a rather lazy film to me.

[Prowler]

Didn't care much for The Breakfast Club. Not a bad movie but not great either. Maybe it's a classic because there weren't many movies like it back then. Same goes for Dirty Dancin

[ObiWanFan4life]

I think Cars is slightly underrated.

[ZariusTwo]

I have never been a fan of the way the DCAU explored Bruce Wayne's future. To suggest Batman remains fixated only on the mission for mommy and daddy at the cost of every personal relationship he's ever had is completly unreallistic and does not inspire anyone to kick out of self-destructive and angsty habits. I find stories where he decides to embrace both sides of himself to accomplish the goal of sustainable purpose with a long-term goal for personal happiness in reach of him (Batman Forever, Batman and Robin, Dark Knight Rises, the Earths where he and Selina raise Helena together) to be more inspirational. A pity fanboys will never embrace that rosier outcome because they can't move past their own hang-ups and want to forever project them onto the character

[raph27]

I think Cars is slightly underrated.
Agreed. And....I liked the 2nd one. There, I said it.
Not mine but my sister thinks Ghostbusters 2 is way better than the first one. Well then.

[Leo656]

I'unno, Zar. I get all that, but I kinda think he's Broken. I'm not a huge fan of the way the DCAU showed Bruce's future, either, but frankly, people as self-destructive as Bruce usually don't suddenly reach some sort of epiphany, as uplifting as that may be. I mostly always figured he'd be killed in the line of duty and someone else would assume the mantle, either Dick (hopefully) or someone else inspired by his heroic sacrifice. I've never in my head pictured Bruce Wayne dying as an old man safe in his bed, I can only ever really see him going out as a martyr. Part of what didn't work for me in DKR was the whole "he quits being Batman for 8 years" thing. That was insanely out of character. Part of why he became Batman has always been explained as, "The police are corrupt and/or incompetent, and can't be trusted to do what needs to be done, thus the need for Batman in the first place." He'd never step aside just because some barely-legal new law was written into place to make it easier for cops to catch bad guys. The whole, "I'm only gonna be Batman until the cops get their sh*t together" was really tough to swallow. He's way too obsessed, driven, and paranoid for that.

So, I don't see either a DKR or "Batman Beyond" future for Bruce. Even when I was about 5, I kind of saw him as a character that could only have a tragic yet heroic ending (Yes, I was a morbid little kid :lol:). I mean, it's not like one day there suddenly won't be bad guys the cops can't catch. And I also think along the way it's become clear that just being Batman is sort of an addiction. I don't know how easily he'd find it to settle down and have a "normal" life after everything he's been through. And I think that every time he saw or read about someone getting killed by a mugger, or something like that, it'd torture him to think he could have done something about it.

It'd be nice to see him get a happy ending, but for some reason, I just don't think it fits him. :ohwell:

Guess that's why there's a Multiverse. :lol:

[ZariusTwo]

Guess that's why there's a Multiverse. :lol:

Sad thing is, in most multiverses, even the ones where he ended up with Selina, he ends up dead/widowed anyway and his daughter is orphoned...:ohwell:

[Gin Rummy]

The Eagles are a better band than the Beatles.

[Leo656]

Sad thing is, in most multiverses, even the ones where he ended up with Selina, he ends up dead/widowed anyway and his daughter is orphoned...:ohwell:

Well, like his Mommy told him when he was having his near-death experience... "You know the only reward you get for being Batman? ...You get to be Batman." Most of us would take that and call it a win, be honest. :lol:

[Slade]

[T-U-R-T-L-E POWA!]

The Eagles are a better band than the Beatles.

Yeah no. However The Band is an equal band to the Beatles and Revolver is superior to Sgt. Peppers and Pet Sounds is probably superior to them both.

[MrTMNT2012]

Batman Begins is seriously overrated.

[T-U-R-T-L-E POWA!]

Batman Begins is seriously overrated.

I actually think it is probably the LEAST overrated of the trilogy. I consider Rises the worst. Bane was absolutely ridiculous in it with the whole goofy voice and merc thing.

[AT-Man]

I actually think it is probably the LEAST overrated of the trilogy. I consider Rises the worst. Bane was absolutely ridiculous in it with the whole goofy voice and merc thing.

Begins is the best of the three and my favorite Batman movie.

[Commenter 42]

I loved Transformers 2, it's one of my favorite action films ever.

I also loved TASM1&2, and think they are far better than Rami's trilogy, which I loathed back when they were released, and still do.

I hate Nolans Batman 1 and Batman 3, and pretty much all of Nolan's filmography. I think he is one of the worst story-tellers ever.

I hated Man of steel, hate what they've done to Superman, hate what they're planning to do with Justice League.

I actually loved Watchmen, but hated 300.

[pennydreadful]

I think that the 80's version of Cat People is better than the original.

[Slade]

I hated Man of steel, hate what they've done to Superman, hate what they're planning to do with Justice League.


I don't know if that's considered an unpopular opinion, as I've seen a ton of people say they hate Man of Steel..

Unpopular to me would be I love that movie :lol:

Game related, but from what I've seen most people seem to hate Assassin's Creed 3 /Connor. Both of those to me are the best in the series...I also hate the Naval aspect of 3 and 4..

[ledahead]

I think The Big Bang Theory is soooooooo stupid. The jokes are awful, Jim Parsons is obnoxious, Simon Helberg looks like a child molestor, Kunal Nayyar is also obnoxious and not even remotely funny. Pretty much everyone on the show annoys me. It boggles my mind how anyone (even nerds) can like this show.

Dude it is like we have one mind. That is the biggest dang poser show I have ever seen. The ONLY people I know that like it are NOT legit dorks. Also all legit dorks that I know do NOT act like that. It is nothing but lame stereotypes and cliche sitcom stories.

[Leo656]

Yeah, I don't get that show. I kinda get annoyed when people tell me I'm supposed to like it.

[Aaronardo]

- I think smartphones are stupid.
- Twilight Princess is the best Zelda game of all-time.
- Frozen was great. But it was not spectacular.
- I hate FPS games so badly.
- I don't like Divergent or The Hunger Games.
- Toontown Online is the best online game of all time. (I'm going there. But I'm serious)
- I think Star Wars II and III are actually really good.
- I think music from the 70s, 80s, and 90s were so much better than whatever this is today.
- I love the Wii U and think it is very underrated.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

[T-U-R-T-L-E POWA!]

ADHD is a load of crap and American kids are ENTIRELY over medicated. Parents should be parents and discipline their kids. A buddy told me that ADD stands for "Adults Don't Discipline" and I agree. Parents now use tv, phones, laptops, ipads, and ipods as babysitters and then let their kids get basically addicted to them and then take them away and the kid doesn't know how to react and they say "Oh no! Little Suzy has a medical condition! Gimme meds now!" That's really annoying. I actually know of a Dr. here that was recently stripped of his right to practice medicine for just handing out these meds like they were candy. I'm fine with that.

[raph27]

I didn't know this was unpopular until recently but I think TASM2 is head-and-shoulders above the others the best Spidey movie ever made.

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

Purple rice is the best, in my opinion. Hehe. :3 it's healthier too. Okay it's not called Purple rice, but that's about the color it becomes. It's the stuff in the bowl. Lol. It's the only pic i got off the rice. And yes i was drinking pink lemonade out of that thing.

Looks weird.

[Prowler]

I think I've had that kind of rice before. It was alright as far as I remember.

[Xiewin]

I don't understand all the hype for superhero films.
I find Marvel films godawful.
Avengers was one of and most overrated films I have ever seen in a long time. Its not bad, but it's not exactly good either.
I thought Guardians was nothing new, another terribly overrated movie.
Frozen is not a good movie. Tons of plot holes, rushed pacing, and forced characters.
The 80's turtles was just atrocious for me to re-watch.
I loved Transformers 2 when I first saw it.
But after re-watching it, I can see why it's such a bad film, but it's just outrageously entertaining.
I liked Man of steel, but the actions sucked though.
The tmnt 1990 movie is not as great as I remember, it's an okay film.
I wish for the new tmnt movie to make an trilogy.

[ZariusTwo]

Aww nuts, I'm not seeing it until Wednesday and I was genuinely excited. I thought/hoped this was actually gonna live up to expectations.

I thought the Lego movie was very overrated, really was quite surprised as I heard a lot of good things. Everything is awesome? The song perhaps, the film not so much.

[John Pannozzi]

I thought Guardians was nothing new, another terribly overrated movie.


Why the Rocket Raccoon sig and avatar, then?

[Bry]

I think The Big Bang Theory is soooooooo stupid.

I absolutely hate that show. I never watched it on my own time, but I had a job writing subtitles for DVDs years back and I worked on a bunch of Big Bang Theory episodes. It's painfully unfunny. Just a very lazy, boring, generic sitcom with a bunch of science and nerdy pop-culture references crammed in, as if just mentioning them counts as an actual joke.

Incidentally, I'm a big fan of Community. Which I know isn't for everyone, but I remember someone saying at one point that, if you're a geeky/nerdy kind of person, Community is the show that laughs with you and Big Bang Theory is the show that laughs at you. I thought that nailed it and explained a lot about why I can't stand the show.

And because I'm into comics and "geek" stuff, people who like the show always ask me if I'm a fan, and I have to find a way to gracefully change the subject without going off on the damn thing. :P

[Xiewin]

Why the Rocket Raccoon sig and avatar, then?

Lol people ask me this question all the time.

The character is interesting, the movie isn't.

Sorry you were'nt a big fan of that one Blossom, though even as a fan of the film I can understand how it could irk some people, it does'nt exactly boast the most terribly original plot in cinema, the female lead is a bit of a catty b*tch, and I actively want to punch anyone who quotes that bloody cosmonaught ("SPACEEESHIP"...oh go away)

Hey, man, it's cool, it's yours to like. Have fun with it. :) Best part is, nobody can ever argue with you about how good or bad it was, because I don't think anyone but you and me actually read the f***ing thing. :P

And Rocky V... is terrific. Never let 'em tell ya any different. 8)

Heh, I was reading the books at the time more for the then-freshly married Lois and Clark and the soap opera with Lex and Contessa (remember Lex's kid? DC would rather we don't), and I knew the changes were never going to last five minutes. Plus Grant Morrison's JLA run at the time made great use of him.

[Aaronardo]

I think that The Matrix Reloaded is nearly as good as the first movie.

Thank you! I loved both movies to death, and I wouldn't exactly consider Revolutions bad, but certainly the weakest of the three.

[Leo656]

DC would rather we don't), and I knew the changes were never going to last five minutes. Plus Grant Morrison's JLA run at the time made great use of him.

Didn't his kid die or something? Last I remember was Lena getting possessed by Brainiac during the Y2K storyline and I haven't read it in years but I think they wrote her out of the book after that. Or maybe she came back during that "Metropolis" mini-series starring Olsen? I swear Lena/Brainiac was in that, but again, haven't read that in a while either. But I swear she's dead. Which is fine; I don't like it at all when they humanize Luthor. They sure did stretch out that Contessa plotline just to drop it, though. I remember they "killed" her but implied maybe she wasn't dead, but then they never touched it again, back when the editorial duties were being shifted around. After "Our Worlds At War", it was like "nothing from 1996 until now ever happened".

I do remember Morrison's JLA making some good use of Superman Blue, but that's no shock. He's literally the only one who can make stuff like that work, and even that's only because of all the drugs he's on, that his brain comes up with ways to make even the most nonsensical junk turn out good. :lol: Sad to say, but his run was the last time even JLA was any good. I wanted to like Meltzer's run but I didn't. Too much navel-gazing, too much elevation of B-Teamers, when they'd just spent years re-establishing why the JLA needs to be the "Big Seven". Almost seems like only Morrison "gets" the JLA, or at least knows how to use them right.

Every few years, some writer comes along who has a hard-on for some lesser, more obscure characters, and because they're on a hot streak writing other books, they get to cram their "pets" into the JLA, even though nobody cares about them. Then when sales slip because nobody wants to read a JLA book that doesn't have Supes, Bats, and Wonder Woman, but does have Red Tornado, Starman, and Congorilla, they have to cancel the book and relaunch it with the Big Seven anyways. What's so hard to understand? The JLA is for the "Big Guns", not the second-stringers.

[ZariusTwo]

I think Morrison might be using Lena in his Multiversity series, or at least some variation of her, in a universe where the offspring of DC characters are big celebrities (so he gets to write Damien again...yippie)

I haven't read JLA since "Tower of Babel" and the fall-out from all of that.

By the way Leo, did you catch Morrison's recent interview where he laid out how he would end Man of Steel?

Pierce Brosnan was the perfect James Bond and Daniel Craig is the worst.

-I don't like the Lion King, I didn't watch it much as a kid really and I find that Simba, Scar and Timon&Pumbaa annoying and whiny. The animation and the hyena's are the best thing about that movie.

-Outside of Finding Nemo, Ratatouille, UP and Toy Story 3 I don't like Pixar that much

My dad hates them too, but not because they're boring -- he hates how stupid all the characters in them are. Dear god he gets so angry at the stupid characters in horror movies sometimes, it's hilarious.

You roll your eyes like you think I'm joking:

So long as TMNT is perceived to be a Boys Show, I'm sure it'll be fine. The moment it gives the appearance of being more popular with women/girls the greater the risk it'll be canned. Because you see, it's okay for girls to watch boy shows, but boys won't want girls shows. Or at least, that's how the marketing departments see it.

See also how hard it was for the Avatar Guys to get Korra made.
I did think you were joking. This makes me sad and slightly angry. Angsad?
Eyeroll rescinded.

-The Dark Knight is the worst of the Nolan films. The third act falls apart completely imo. I would love the movie as much as everyone else if the last act didn't feel so rushed and over-stuff.

-While it's got great affection from most everyone already, I think Guardians of the Galaxy is one of the best blockbusters of the last decade. Bar none. Everything about it just fires on all cylinders.

-I hate Friends. I hate Seinfeld.

-Game of Thrones bores me to tears....show and book.

-The Artemis Fowl book series is better, more concisely written and consistent as far as character growth is concerned than Harry Potter. I like Harry Potter, but it has a lot of things about it that irk me.

-I honestly don't much like the 80s TMNT show anymore. It has it's moments, but it makes me slack-jawed most of the time. The nostalgia just doesn't hold up anymore, which makes me sad.

-Return of the Jedi is the best Star Wars film

-Empire Strikes Back has massive structural issues. The Luke and Falcon timelines make no sense. I still love the film, but it's not this perfect written film fans make it out to be.

Have you seen the Animation Atrocities Spongebob Reviews?

Well I just watched the Splinter review, and I didn't like it at all. But the parts they showed from the episode were funny. How can anyone be grossed out from that?

[shuriken]

Oooh Nightmare on Elm Street 3 Dream Warriors is the best in terms of both Freddy kills and the fine line between humor and terror. After Dream Master Freddy never really got his edge back.
Friday the 13 series sucks and has always sucked.
Mortal Kombat Conquest was awesome because of the fight scenes. The acting was terrible but those fights were all pretty great.
Rocky 5 is significantly better than 4.
Michael Keaton is a better Batman than Bale, West, Clooney or Kilmer.

[ZariusTwo]

Eldorado was the best British soap opera ever made
The seasons of Red Dwarf without the involvement of Rob Grant are actually pretty good

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

Michael Keaton is a better Batman than Bale, West, Clooney or Kilmer.

Same, but not sure if it's an Unpopular Opinion. Keaton is a fan favorite, so not sure:ohwell:

[MogwaiNinja89]

Aside from Keaton, Nicholson and the overall look of the film, I've always found Batman 89 to be an exercise in the dull. It's a film lacking narrative momentum and is just a slog to get through.

Batman Returns, on the other hand, is one of my favorite comic book films ever.

As is Ang Lee's Hulk.

[ZariusTwo]

The barely remembered Knight Rider 2010 is fondly remembered by me.

The Nick Fury TV movie starring David Hasselhoff is made of awesome and I'd watch that over most of Jackson's Fury performances anyday.

I agree, I always did like Return of the Jedi more.

Unless you put Conroy on that list that's not an unpopular opinion Keaton is widely accepted as the best on screen Batman. At least every poll and discussion I have ever seen or participated in. In fact I think Bale is the biggest black mark on the Nolan Trilogy. At least inside the suit as Batman.

Now a Batman opinion of mine I think the Nolan Trilogy and the four originals are completely inferior to one movie in fact I'll even dare say its the greatest comic book movie of all time Batman: Mask of the Phantasm trust me its an unpopular opinion considering how much it bombed at the boxoffice. I think what the total gross was only five million.

I actually like X-men Origins Wolverine yes the third act was terrible and I do mean terrible and I'm glad it got wiped from continuity. Adamantium bullet the bad cameos and ugh what they did to Deadpool. Past that I really enjoyed the movie. The video game tie in was better and even gave a Days of Future Past teaser before the movies did let alone before Fox decided to make that movie.

[Jester]

I prefer Superman 4 to 3. It brings back Lex and...I...um...actually like Nuclear Man. (Though the "Bizarro" bits of Superman 3 are pretty good)

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

In my Opinion, The Avengers is nowhere near as good as everyone says it is.

[pennydreadful]

With you there, Headbands - I don't see what the big hairy deal is.

[Netkeeper]

The Avengers would have been 500% better if it were only Bruce and Tony

[T-U-R-T-L-E POWA!]

Same, but not sure if it's an Unpopular Opinion. Keaton is a fan favorite, so not sure:ohwell:

But the truth is Kevin Conroy is better than all of them. Keaton is second though.

[Slade]

Know what I always wondered? Is it actually the fact that it's Conroy's voice the reason we say that or is it that we all grew up watching the show?

[T-U-R-T-L-E POWA!]

It's his voice for me. It is his voice that I think of Batman "sounding like" when I read the comics or just imagine what he would actually be like. I did grow up watching the show but I just think of him as the true Batman because of how great his portrayal is. I also think of Mark Hamill as the true Joker as well.

[Slade]

So if today was the first time you heard it, you probably wouldn't say that's what Batman would sound like?

Any animated Batman I see, I want it to be Conroy. Another thing, would it be better to say we think the animated Batman is the best since it was actually on Conroy's voice, and not him as the bat?

Heh, I'm kinda bored..thinking to hard about all this.

LOL! I know what you're saying. I really feel like Conroy just strikes a perfect tone. I think I probably would still think it was the best voice even if I just heard it today. I'm the exact same way when it comes to Batman. If it's not Conroy's voice in the games or whatever I just don't feel like I'm going to enjoy it that much. I've honestly said that I wish Nolan would have used Conroy's voice while Bale was in the suit. LOL. THAT would have thrown some people but if Lucas can do it for Vader then why can't a different actor be used to voice Bats?

[Cure]

That reminds me of an unpopular opinion. I'm fine never hearing Kevin Conroy's voice again and would prefer it if other guys did Batman.

[Prowler]

I thought I was the only one who didn't like his voice as Batman much. I like most of the voices in the Arkham games but not very keen on Batman's.

[shuriken]

I actually agree. I like Conroy, but let others have at it.

[Leo656]

Yeah, I like him fine, but I totally can't stand the whole "NO ONE but (name here) can EVER play the part of (character here)" thing. That's stupid.
