Me personally? I did not care for Game of Thrones.
Lord of the Rings. The pacing is absolutely untenable. And it’s not the wide shots; it’s the constant close up reaction shots. Just endless seconds wasted on people staring at each other.
The Dark Knight is overrated. The ending makes no sense. The people would lose hope if they knew Harvey Dent went crazy, but they’re still perfectly hopeful believing he was murdered by Batman? Come on.
Also, Batman voice is stupid. It’s a silly creative choice, and I just can’t take it seriously.
If I say Big Bang Theory am I just preaching to the choir?
It is my understanding that it gets a lot of hate in here, so yes. I’m not here to claim that it’s a good show, but I watched the entire series. It was, at least, entertaining. But I understand a lot of the hate; It felt like “commission-written jokes for focus groups”, similar to Friends (which I also have watched every episode of… yeah, when you’re stuck on a ship you tend to binge watch things)
Dr. Who
I tried three different doctors. It’s clearly just not for me.
I don’t have strong feelings about Star Wars, Star Trek, battlestar galactica, anything by James Cameron outside of Aliens, and anything by Mike Flanagan.
Troma / Full Moon / Donald Farmer / Polonia Bros on the other hand……
Breaking Bad. Just never got into it.
Chernobyl… didnt get past 1st episode. Feels like some weird documentary, my monkey brain didnt feel the dopamine so I had to click the X in the corner
Succession… yeah idk whats going on, rich dudes being in parties all the time, meetings, and of course, drugs??? Okay but like no action, lame.
Mr Robot. This is just depression and drugs and I dont even know what the plan is most of the time. Like okay dude pulls up to a random “hacker base” then like he does drugs while hacking some corporate as a distraction for his other hacker friends or… something… what? I have no idea what happened. Did they pull a “Corporate Dystopia” filter over the show? I dont need more depression in my escapism.
I agree on two of those as indicated by my comment, but I want to suggest you watch one more episode; Episode 2 is where the overarching theme is established.
Yes, it’s documentary-ish, but it’s got an interesting drama angle with some tense moments too.
If it’s not for you, I don’t blame you, I just recommend giving it an honest shot for one more episode.
The Boys
Which is not to say that I thought is was a bad show. I watched S1 and about half of S2 and found it a struggle to stay engaged. Karl Urban is incredible and I’m a fan of Jack Quaid from his Lower Decks work. Probably my biggest gripe was that too often it was gory just for the sake of being gory, but I personally just lost interest in the overall story for no reason other than I just didn’t vibe with it.
Yeah, Family Guy is awful. Louie. Seinfeld. Community.
Same, did not like GoT.
Anything by Taylor Sheridan.
Agreeing with that other guy/gal/gem on succession: I learned that it was supposed to be a comedy, but that aspect is lost on me: While it has some funny moments I find that it’s just a series about r8ch people behaving the way I expect them to.
I never watched Game of Thrones, so I can’t exactly claim that I didn’t like it. I just got so fed up about hearing about it all the time, so my tolerance for it was saturated even without watching a single episode. Cool intro song, though. My understanding of the show is that it’s just scripted misery porn.
Same guy/gal/gem who mentioned succession reminded me of Mr Robot. Yeah, I gave it an honest try, but I gave up somewhere during the 2nd season (I think). If a couple of 4chan rejects wrote a script about cool haxx0rman, I’m sure it’d end up similar. Also, I feel like they’re trying and failing to set up a rug pull: Christian Slater is only in his head, right?
