What are movies, bands, or TV shows that people love, but you personally think is terrible?

First of all, Mad Men was GREAT.

 

TV: Game of Thrones. Overdone. Impossible to follow the plot, since there wasn't one. And Mrs Chief made us watch like, 3 seasons.

 

Music: The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, everything from the 90's.

Ah, come on, man! I know Simmons mostly writes creepy stuff about teenage girls, but Stanley wrote some shredders!

I don't get KISS, they do nothing for me. I am the only person in my group of friends that doesn't like them.

 

"X in Sex" is an all time classic though. ;)

GOT was overdone but Mad Men was great?....got it. 92 episodes that went exactly.......nowhere fast.

 

Back to the home Mr, they'll be looking for you.

Movies: Every post-Life Aquatic Wes Anderson film. Particularly because everything up to that point was so good, then he figured he could just write the same basic story over and over. And Moonrise Kingdom (generally well liked) is, like, the most boring, self-satisfied movie ever, imo.  

Rushmore might be my favorite movie of all time. The Royal Tenenbaums and Life Aquatic were tremendous as well. I would kill for a classic Wes Anderson movie right about now. Bottle Rocket was very good too.

 

Anderson really knows how to utilize Bill Murray.

I too thought Mad Men was good... 

That is my biggest issue with GOT, and why I can't get into it. They make zero attempt to introduce character names and the plot. It was utter confusion for me every time a new person showed up on screen.

Chief is a big fan of Madmen, the 50's were a big time for Chief, he started pulling social security back in 52.

Apparently a remedial version of GOT is required for some. HBO might have a way to extend this franchise now. Maybe a big letter book to follow along with.

 

At the very least, wear some GD name tags so we know who they are!

Dude.  Mad Men is set in the 60's.

Chief, a part of me just died after reading that.

Let me specifically point out Pearl Jam as the most hideously overrated bunch of nails-on-a-chalkboard sounding gasbags of that era.

TV Show: The Walking Dead.

 

I ****ing hate this show. It has the same flaws as the comic: it's repetitive, circular, and boring. Whereas Game of Thrones condenses and improves upon the novels by removing the weakest parts, The Walking Dead goes hard at the worst parts of the book over and over again.

 

Which is too bad, because the comic was amazing through the first 40 issues and pretty good through the first 80 issues. The show had a template what not to do and chose to move around set pieces but not really change some of the stuff that really needed to be changed.

 

The second season of the show is one of the laziest, phoned-in seasons of a show I've ever seen on television.

I went unconscious. Not sure how long I was out.

I'm pretty sure SSI did not exist in 1852.

Seems to be a Seattle thing. Probably doesn't like fish either.

I loved Fish.  Great character on a great show.

Of course you did. Your grandson was great on the Barney Miller Show and in the Godfather. Tremendous actor.

Are we talking about something that you'd never give a chance to or something you've given a shot and can't stand it? 

 

I know I don't need to hear Bieber to know I want to punch him in the throat. I despise Guns n Roses. Every time that whiny nasally POS opens his mouth I rush to change the station, fast forward, stick my fingers in my ears or whatever it takes to drown it out. 

 

TV...I won't give anything science fictiony a chance.

Oh, and thanks for reminding me, add Rush to my list.
