I'll go first. Mine is that I can't stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It's like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds

I don't actually like the new Dune movies. I just thought that it had the ast Lord Of The Rings movie energy, and that it just went on a bit longer than i really wanted it to. There was certainly some good bits to it no doubt but they didn't really feel connected to me.

I won’t watch SNATCH because people wouldn’t shut the fuck about it for like 10 years. It may be great, I wouldn’t know because I won’t watch it.

Not sure if this counts as unpopular. But man Hollywood really butchered Godzilla and many other iconic movie monsters. Why the hell is Godzilla some kind of anti-hero and don’t get me started on the cast.

Independence Day (1996) is the greatest documentary of all time.

I am NOT going to even consider watching the new Death Stranding movie when it's out.
Just like Morbius, that movie is a "would rather ask my in-laws parenting advice than ever watch it".

The Shining isn't good. There are certainly parts that are good, and its an interesting movie, but theres way too much reliance on corny cliches, and cheap shock for the sake of it.

The Hobbit trilogy is just as good as Lord of the Rings and the CGI didn't ruin anything.

The Star Wars prequels are pretty good, and the Rey trilogy was excellent.
