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

Batman Begins and Dark Knight Rises were boring. Batman & Robin was better than those two.

I'm not sure if this will be unpopular, but if the emperor somehow returned, surely he could somehow go away again like it never happened and we get the thrawn trilogy and katana fleet.

The ending of se7en makes no sense. All the previous victims were murdered because they suffered from one of the seven deadly sins (gluttony, sloth, greed, lust, pride). But the final two victims - that supposedly would complete the list - did not suffer from these sins, but instead the perpetrators murdered them out of envy and wrath. Gwyneth did not suffer from envy, and Brad did not get murdered for his wrath.

Such a shame because the rest of the movie is great.

Silence of the Lambs is not a scary film.

E.T. is decent at best. I wanted to watch it as a young kid, but wasn't allowed. By the time I finally watched it, I found it fell short of my expectations and I found it quite dull. Super 8 was also a middling film, but I thought it was slightly better than E.T.

Citizen Kane and 2001: A Space Odyssey suck now.

There are old movies that have aged much better, like The Man in the White Suit and Colossus: The Forbin Project. These should be the ones we call classics.

Avengers End Game is awful. I usually really like super hero movies, but end game is unwatchable.

6 Underground was a good movie. Michael Bay is just making fun of himself, and I thought it was hilarious

James Cameran's avatar are good movies, both of them.

Barbie & Her Sisters in a Puppy Chase is a horror movie

Dune is complete crap from the soundtrack to the script. The characters are as thick as cardboard and their interactions motivate nothing. It's full of slow motion nonsense, flying metal dragonflies and Zimmer's horns. These days filmmakers are convinced visuals make storytelling. They don't. Dialogue does and here there's not a single line I remember.

OP asked for unpopular opinions and you've delivered.

Upvoted you because of that and not because I agree with you (I strongly disagree as a matter of fact).

Tho it's a show and watched only the first season, but Star Trek: Lower Decks is kinda ruining the whole Star Trek world to me.

It's an OK cartoon, not bad at all. but so not Star Trek to me, at least the first season wasn't. I get it, it's the "Go" of the series, the cool and hip genz implementation, you either like it or not, and honestly, I kinda like it, but not as Star Trek.
