Me personally? I did not care for Game of Thrones.

    Naw man, I’m pretty sure The Princess Bride is pretty universal to anyone around the world who grew up in the 80-90a.

    walking dead seemed boring. maybe it was just the pilot though. in general i dont like movies since having proper long story is better than everything being crammed into couple of hours.

    Movies >>> TV shows for me. Maybe episodic shows I can enjoy like standalone short movies

      I was a background actor in that one. It got some awards that season too, I heard. I still didn’t watch it, cause I’m not a sports fan and figured I wouldn’t get anything out of it. I like Sudeikis though. I’m an SNL fan. I should probably check it out someday

    Dexter. I was good until season 3, killing off the wife ruined it for me. My gf stuck it out until the shitty ending when they killed his sister. They can shove the new rehash up their asses as far as I’m concerned, I’m not falling for another rug-pull.

    The Cabin in the Woods. I know so many horror fans who are enamoured with all the references in this movie. And yeah, the references are cute. But do they understand that it’s shitting on every movie it references, and shitting on horror fans for liking them? The plot is built around the idea that every movie it references is formulaic, contrived pablum. Kinda hard for me to get past the sneering superiority of it all.

    Arcane: beautiful artwork but the characters did nothing for me.

    The Expanse: Good “universe” but again I found the main characters boring.

    Then there’s a few directors I tend to think are style over substance. Ridley Scott is too slow paced. Dennis Villeneuve is always visually stunning, but half his films struggle to tell a good story. Chris Nolan is very hit and miss and he needs a good writer at his side, rather than writing his own stuff.

      I agree with you on The Expanse. Watched nearly all the first season and I just didn’t care. All the characters were boring. Everything was just bleh, idc.

      What for you is the start of South Park?

      I was really into the first few seasons as a teenager in the 90s, but watching them today it is comical to me how bad they are. The later seasons are infinitely better written and more interesting.

      I read an interview with Stone/Parker once and they said something like “we had absolutely no idea how to write until our first movie when we sat down with our Hollywood script writers, and they taught us how.”
