Unpopular Opinions about Movies (and Television Shows)

Why is that, Would you rather him ramble on about some back story that wouldn’t fit the scene at all? His death mirrors that of the emporer in episode 6 after all

however not for a star wars protagonist

I would’ve rather we gotten something about who he was than nothing at all. The Emperor and Snoke aren’t really comparable because the Emperor was the villain of a standalone story. We didn’t need a reason for him to be there because he was the Status Quo. Snoke is the entire reason this sequel trilogy happened in the first place, and there is a very large gap between Episodes 6 and 7 that is unexplained.

The problem wasn’t that Rey’s parents were nobodies, it’s that they weren’t even nobodies. If Rey met her parents and they were characters who we never met before that would be fine. You could still do something interesting with that. Hell, I’d be fine if they never brought them up at all, because at least then it could be left to the imiagination. With Kylo Ren brushing off Rey’s parents as nothing they’ve killed any potential that plot point could have.

I’ve never really enjoyed the Star Wars movies. I mean, they’re cool and all, but they’ve never really managed to interest me all that much.

I prefer the Clone Wars cartoon a lot more.

I think Kylo lied and they’re actually siblings.

Does Kylo even have a reason to lie though?

Perhaps he does and we don’t know what it is yet

Remember that we’ve got an entire topic to discuss why you like or dislike The Last Jedi, and even then, disliking the film isn’t that unpopular an opinion, so let’s move on.

Iron Fist Season 1 is good. Fight me.

Sorry. Though personally I think it’s weird to have a thread generally about movies, but not to be able to discuss a specific movie there.

I mean, there are more specific topics for that.

It’s a thread about unpopular opinions on movies and TV, not a “let’s generally discuss movies”. In the instance of The Last Jedi conversation,

What he said. There’s an entire topic centered around Episode VIII where this can be discussed, and as I said earlier,

So that discussion doesn’t belong here anyway. If someone were saying, for instance, “hey, I think the classic horror film Psycho from Alfred Hitchcock would be waaaayyyy better if it were in color” then you could discuss that until the cows come home, as it’s an unpopular opinion, and there’s not a dedicated Psycho movie topic.

you’re totally correct…
I just felt that the general line of events and not looking at the details procured a movie very similar to a couple of previous star wars movies.

It’s still not about one specific movie. They were discussing unpopular opinions from what I understand, just mostly about Last Jedi. In the end you’re the mod tho so whatever

Venom is at least more entertaining than most Marvel movies. Whether it’s a good movie or not, it’s a lot of fun, and I personally rank it alongside Homecoming and Ragnarok.

I’ll probably like it then. That’s kinda how I felt about the first Jurassic world. Wasn’t a great movie, but it was fun

My unpopular opinions:
Cars 2 is a master piece. I really don’t know why people hate it. Develops the character of Mater, giving him his own movie. The action scenes are fantastic. Finn McMissle is my favourite Pixar character. This is probably the best Spy Comedy movie I have ever seen. I have watched it like 10 times, and still didn’t get bored of it. IMO, is one of the best Pixar Movies (Please don’t hate me for this)

Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and 3 are pretty good. The third one is probably my favourite. The fifth one is also pretty good. I was shocked when I saw the the Stranger Tides performed better the Dead Men’s Chest and At World’s End. I don’t know why is this, since the fourth one is trash in my opinion.

The third Home Alone made me laugh much more then the original two movies. It was not meant to be a good movie, but a movie that would make you laugh, and it touched that goal to me. Also, Holyday Heist isn’t that bad.

I think Last Jedi was pretty good. It was fun, entertaining, and well done. The only thing I didn’t like was that it copied some scenes from the original films. But other then that, I actually enjoyed it.

I actually thing that Iron Man 3 was better then the first one. I don’t know what people don’t like about it.

Ant Man and The Wasp was amazing. It was a fun, comedy movie that you can watch with your family. I don’t know who could have come up with such funny ideas.

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is my 2nd favourite Jurassic movie after the Original. Better then the first Jurassic World is my opinion.

I don’t know if I would go so far to celebrate it, but I didn’t think it was bad.

I think you misspelled “M-O” as “Finn McMissile”. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Not sure whether or not I’ve seen it, but if it’s not Kevin, I don’t care.

Glares at Force Awakens, but glaring at the entire movie…

All the other ones I’ve either stated as agreeing with or disagreeing with, and in the case of Jurassic World 2, I haven’t seen it.

I disagree with just about all of this except for Ironman 3. I did like 3 better than 1, though I didn’t like 1 a whole lot either.

Well, this topic is for us to say our unpopular opinions, which most people don’t agree with

Yeah, but it’s okay to say why, why not, and/or if you agree with said opinions.

Yeah, I was just saying that I agreed with some, and disagreed with others. That’s the point of the topic.
