Here, discuss some of your TV/movie opinions that go against "the norm". These are your opinions that usually get you laughed at, scoffed at, insulted, or physically attacked when you admit to them.
I'll begin with some of mine:
- Cheers >>>> Frasier
- Lost sucks
- Star Wars was the most overrated series of movies ever made
- Dallas was just plain boring
- 300 is not all that great
- Clint Eastwood > John Wayne (this one always gets my father all worked up :lol:)
- 2001: A Space Odyssey was pretty bad
- Most Jean-Claude Van Damme movies are pretty good
- Family Guy > The Simpsons

ANY "reality" TV is crap. It's not real
I don't like Lost or Heroes.
I prefer Pepsi over Coke.(not a big one, I know, but I get crap for it all the time)
300 is overrated. It only looks good.
Guitar Hero, while slightly fun, isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread and just because someone plays it doesn't mean that they're a musician.
If I think of more, I'll come back.

Lord of the Rings film trilogy is dull and ****ty.
The Matrix sequels are great.
Out of the prequel trilogy, Star Wars Episode 1 is the best and it goes downhill from there.
Doom 3 > Half-Life 2.
Resident Evil (film) sucks so much donkey balls.
I enjoyed Darkman 2 for what it was.
I have yet to see a Olivier Gruner flick that has not entertained me.
John Wayne is a crappy actor and James Stewart ain't that great either. Bogey beats them both in terms of coolness.
The Indiana Jones films are silly and for kids.

since i cant watch tv as it is covered in my spit
i will share other opinions I have noticed.
*everyone thought He was smart, turns out he was just really opinionated.
*You are beautiful in every single way,except maybe one or two.
*now that you're my problem, who will I tell my problems to?
*Expectations are disappointments in disguise.
*I got her to change, but now I miss the old her.
*Your favorite person has potential to become your least favorite person
*It only hurts if you care.
*I'm the only person on earth who has experienced pain.
*Enjoy ignorance.
*Lets tell each other our darkest secrets. Later, when things go bad, we can use them against each other.
*You mean so much to me, but one day you probably won't mean anything.
*I've drawn an imaginary line between us only I can see.
*One day the bottle where I keep all my feelings inside broke.
*Everyone is holding my happiness hostage.
*The picture you took of me ruined my self esteem forever.
embrace the darkness-enter my world

The Doors suck extremely hard, Jim Morrison was not a good singer, nor was he a talented lyricist. He was just a guy on drugs who used to write crappy poetry and continued on to write crappy lyrics and sing them terribly. The rest of the band was nothing special either.
Led Zeppelin is also extremely overrated, they really don't do it for me at all.
Lord of the Rings was not half as good as everyone made it out to be, and in no way deserved all the awards it got.
Heroes >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lost (the show really isn't all that great).
I actually quite liked the Dawn of the Dead remake.

i agreee with u on the emo thing,girls want guys who cant defend their girl for some reason.
resident evil movies wouldnt have been made if romero hadnt made his films,and im sick and tired of the love stories in movies,it was a time for change in bringing in the resident evil franchise

: Cracks knuckles :
Okay Russell Brand is an annoying little bitch.
The mighty boosh has gone to crap.
All Reality tv should be burnt.
Rap aswell as Rappers does suck and no this is not a sub for black people. I just cant see anything good in it..the music thelifestyle and the people but that could just be that Im in England so I dont get the real rappers just the british brand.
Drum and Base I hate.
Smoking does not mean youre a bad person!
Yup Emo goes on the bonfire too
Whiskey is not the devils spit!
Return of the living dead series sucks some serious cahones.
Women should be more ladylike? This is an unpopular opinion but hear me out here. Im not saying they should prance around and wear makeup most of them do that by their free will even though theres no need. I mean that now men and women are equal ( more or less ) I still see alot of guys keeping to the old sort of saying only a weakling hits a woman. I just see alot of ladettes taking advantage of this. To back up my points here are things Ive seen women do which if a man did then they would have ben coughing teeth for a week
Spitting in the face of a larey drunk chav
Smashing a Mobile phone over a guys face
Slapping a guy around and when he tried to walk away grabbing his hair pulling him back and punching him in the face
And the for big finale: Emptying lighter fuel on a girl and lighting it then when the boyfriend finally arrived and went to go for the fire lover she kicked him in the balls then stamped on his face.
Can anyone at all see where Im coming from? The things listed above are if a guy did to another guy there would be some serious hell to pay but in these situations most of the guys just looked ashamed tried to walk away.

- Star Wars was the most overrated series of movies ever made
- 2001: A Space Odyssey was pretty bad
you know I think this is the most eerie thing...that's exactly what I think about those movies there...I f**king HATE star wars and hadn't watched 2001 until last year, and as soon as it was over I just scoffed...what a completely annoying, pretentious, boring piece of shhhhhhhite.
My additions:
Stanley Kubrick is extremely narcissistic, over rated and boring.
The Devil Wears Prada was an indulgent piece of b**sh*t bereft of both irony or self awaremess.
Kelly Brooke is ugly as sin.
Billie Piper is actually a good actress
Return of the Living Dead 3 was the best in the series but still wasn't that great.
John Russo is a complete c**t (actually...is that against the grain?)
Perfume adverts are the most annoying generic wastes of airtime....WHY DO THE VOICEOVERS ALL HAVE TO WHISPER?!?
FEMALE BEAUTY PRODUCTS ARE ALL A CON! If you actually read "the seven signs of ageing" you'll notice that the same thing crops up at least twice, There aren't 7 signs of ageing, just one...its called AGE. There's no such cream as a "time reversal" cream either. Morons. THEY INVENTED THAT TO MAKE YOU FEEL PARANOID! As mayor quimby once said whilst opening a cosmetic surgery clinic "no longer shall we be terrorised by the spectacle of women ageing naturally"
NOTLD 68 is a bit over rated :)
The Godfather movies are OK but nothing special
Metallica, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Slayer are all over rated and make the same album over and over save for Megadeth who just churn out worse and worse material.
KK Downing is a better guitarist than Glenn Tipton
Black Sabbath sucks
Ozzy Osbourne has never really released a good song
Simon Amstell is better than Mark Lamarr
Fiona Bruce is annoying but has a sexy voice
Boris Johnson is a C**T
I think that's all!

You've got a noble point here and I wouldn't for a second accuse you of being mysoginist or whatever.
However I think you missed the point a bit - you seem to be tarring women with one brush there because of a few bad situations you've witnessed. Now I'd bet my bottom dollar that the girl who was "Spitting in the face of a larey drunk chav" was in fact a larey drunk chav herself. Not much to do with gender but a lot to do with class and social status. I'd say girls from certain class systems are masculised because of their surroundings so being lady like isn't exactly what they are going to do because there's nothing really to draw influence from....couple this with more and more single parent families without a decent male/female role model and it all gets a bit hairy.
What I'd call for an end to is chav-dom...those benefit scamming throwbacks who like "2 fast 2 furious" because "its gud and its got cars innit" and procreate for government handouts. I don't think it has anything to do with gender, just a simple respect and empathy, understanding of human behaviour and god forbid, a bit of class and intelligence. That goes for the blokes and the girls who choose to spend their evenings either on street corners (prams included) or hanging ass-first out of a dingy pub on a friday evening tanked up to the tits on alco-pops or Stella singing football songs whilst urinating at packed bus stops.

I dont think Im tarring all women with the same brush but I can see youre point, Ive got plenty of female friends who act nothing like this. I try not to label people by social group but Im human, we all make judgments willingly or not about who we meet but yep chav girls. It was just an opinion I couldnt voice much its one of those biased things. Ive had a few women tell me that they are smarter in the age old battle of the minds of who is smarter and whoop she is a strong feminist woman standing up for herself! I say men are smarter Im being a mysognist..Oi. Is there a male version of feminism or is it being chauvinistic? Its like a good point I think MZ made about sheilas wheels? The fact that if there was a insurance agency that supplied its service only to men there would be hellup!
Bah I think the more I say the more I tangle myself in this argument Lol I understand youre argument and I agree. Youre preaching to the choir dude!

And neither is Bob Dylan. :rolleyes:
Primary difference being: Bob Dylan can actually write good lyrics, and some great guitar lines.
Oh yea, and I totally agree with 2001 sucking, that movie was complete ****, and I want all 141 minutes of my life back that I spent watching it.
It's very frustrating when people instantly assume that someone "didn't get a movie" or "don't have the mental capacity to fathom a movie" if they don't like it. Wake the **** up, some people just don't like movies that you like.
Country (at least modern day) is one of the worst things I've ever heard. It hurts to think about/hear it.
I think that baggy clothes are retarded. Do you honestly need clothes so big that you could house at least 2 or 3 other people in them?
Macs are ****ty, PCs are the way to go. They have a terrible OS (There's a reason people install XP onto Macs). Also their complete proprietary bull**** is frustrating.
Super Smash Bros. Melee sucks hard balls. The original surpasses it more than I can even imagine.
