RPO the book was so bad I gave up on it fast.
The Batman. Robert Pattinson is not that great of an actor and I still can’t unsee him as that stupid vampire. I know he doesn’t care of the role either, but it really ruins the flow trying to imagine him as Bruce Wayne but all I can see is that cringey vampire. And then it’s just another fucking Batman movie as if we haven’t already had 10 other ones played by 12 different actors already, not including the TV show adaptations and cartoons too. DC needs to seriously stick with one adaptation and go with that or make some about some of the lesser known comic characters.
I know it’s the one that is more closely aligned to the comics and he is actually being a detective. But it was so boring and uninteresting.
I remember sitting in the theater and I kept checking my watch for when it would be over. I was with other people and also was curious how it would end. But it kept dragging on much longer than it should have.
I’ve tried rewatching it since but I still can’t get into it.
"Sit down I've got a movie I want you to watch. It's called What's Eating Gilbert Grape."

My wife and I are huge fans of the Ready Player One book and we could not watch the movie. Literally stopped it. I tried a few more times to resume it but I kept having to stop. I finally finished it on my eight or ninth session.
if you think that movie was bad, you have no idea how painful it is for someone who loved the book.
Diehard. What boring, macho-worshiping crap. Can't even watch it ironically.
Mad Max (all of them, though I only saw part of the first one). It is more of a video game setup then a decent story.
I did not like Chernobyl one bit. Well while it was good at some points, the scientific inaccuracy was just too much to bear.
That little cut in the shoe? Yeah, it’s impossible to die from that.
Se7en
Hated everything about it. Predictable all the way through the big reveal at the end. I don't understand the appeal.
ET, Ghost Busters, Back to The Future, Anything Marvel, DC apart from Joker. And many more.
Didn't even watch Ready Player One the movie because the audiobook was just as cringey, and it was read by Wil Wheaton of all people. I like his work with boardgaming (tabletop), but something about his voice just so well represented the blatant fan service-ness of the whole thing, I hated every minute of it.
As for popular movies that I hated? I don't feel THAT strongly about it, but I was just kind of meh on Sonic 3. I wasn't even expecting a masterpiece, but it seems like there's been enough online hype that made it seem like it was going to be better than expected. It was just whatever. My kids liked it well enough, so I'm probably not the target audience anyways, I've played many of the Sonic games, but I'm not nostalgic or a Sonic nerd or anything. It was a sub-par movie with a handful of funny lines.
Those books were terrible but the movie isn't that bad. Just like Forest Gump isn't a bad movie but was a terrible book.
The Matrix
I thought it was tedious, self-satisfied nonsense. Some impressive visual effects and a bit of half-baked philosophy did not a good movie make. Everything about it seemed to be focused on being cool, rather than telling a decent story.
I hate the Beatles.
I'll help you row that boat. My music theory teacher in high school fucking hated them and spent a good amount of time explaining why they sucked lol
If you say the word "imagine" into a microphone then you're allowed to beat your kids.
Tropic Thunder
I bought the DVD on spec, as everyone seemed to love it and I was going offline for a couple of weeks.
What a dog that was. Gave it away by bitching about it and waiting for someone to support it.
Jurassic Park.
It's just jump scares and dinos running around. That's it.
Why do you hate fun, though? And joy? And "this is Unix" when it's clearly the antithesis of what Unix nerds get boners for Unix about (the command line, if not clear)
