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?
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.

Well I would definitely say that everything past the Batman part of your post would DEFINITELY fall under the "unpopular" category. LOL.

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.
I agree totally that Ledger's Joker is overrated and vastly is a good way to describe how overrated it actually is.

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.

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, 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.

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.

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.

Superman III honestly isn't that bad.

I think that Batman Returns isn't very good

I also think that The Dark Knight is vastly overrated.

Gotta love how threads based entirely on being negative quickly become the most popular threads in a section.

Super sad.

I think Heavy Metal (1981) is more imaginative than anything Seth Mcfarlane when it comes to not for kids toons

Agreed 100%. It was really strange and awkward hearing that voice when I first watched DBZ subs. It's the main reason why I can't watch it that way.

The Architect scene in The Matrix Reloaded is slightly better than any of Yoda's moments with Luke in episodes V and VI of Star Wars.

Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls is the funniest movie for me.

I really like the league of extraordinary gentlemen because of the best versions of Hyde and Dorian Gray that i´ve seen so far. And the story is great although the critics hate it.

I like to watch the tv series Monk.

AND I love the movie "Osmosis Jones" !!!!!!

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.

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

Revenge of the Fallen ain't too bad either, probably the only Bayformers movie I've enjoyed

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.

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