The Unpopular Opinions thread

[Alienfish]

ppl who hate theaters/cinemas probably watched some teen movie with shouting kids in the audience lol. go watch something classic or odd that is for adults man cinema is the best.

also i dont get the thing with netflix, hbo etc. and bingewatching series and i wouldn't pay for it, i'd rather have an old school tv and watch it there.. i can watch reruns online and such if needed but yeahhh no otherwise.

screaming kids arent really the problem, i just get bored watching movies in a theatre.
plus, usually when i'm watching something, i like to do something else while i watch it like draw or play a video game because i have a short attention span and of course i cant really do that in a theatre lol

I'm possibly going to offend a lot of people who does this..

But I kinda don't like it when people type down sentences on the internet like this. (Not the best example)
Dark colors are fine, but anything that is super light color it's hard to read.
I know I can just highlight it but still..

@katezilla... should say i know people with short attention span as well (including myself with other things but i've taken film studies at uni so it's p required u could sit and watch in a cinema lol) and honestly i don't know why it should be an issue. i'd just see it as good practice if anything, and be picky with what you watch.. of course if i watch something dumb on telly i might just play new leaf just to have that thing in the background and listen etc. and then i would never ever dream of playing on my phone while watching an actual movie regardless of location

buuuuut thats just me ig then, no offense i'm just a bit surprised with people sometimes, hm.

also 2000s/2010s is seriously the worst fashion decades.. i'd rather wear my mom's ugly 90s suit than buy something now man.

I don't like most dogs. It's mainly the barking/being aggressive/being territorial and the trying to be friendly jumping on you/licking you that I don't like.

My in-laws have a neighbor who have a really cool dog that I like a lot. He's a very chill dog. He won't bark at you or jump on you and lick you. He's completely blind now (had a disease that took his vision) so he'll come right up to you and sniff you, because smell seems to be his big way of navigating the world now that he's blind. But I'm fine with that. He's the best dog ever. He's still super friendly, he just is friendly in his own way by hanging out with you. My in-laws were taking care of him while his owners were on vacation recently and he seemed to really like me. Whenever I would get up he'd follow me. I went to the bathroom once and he followed me, then politely waited outside the door. When I came out, he followed me back to where everyone was and then laid down next to me. It was very cute!

If you purposely leave perishable items out in the open at grocery stores, you deserve to be charged with theft.
I believe that this is not only one of the most devious forms of theft, but it's arguably the most socially acceptable as well.

Isabelle isn't even that great as everyone makes her out to be. I really don't see the appeal in her at all. I'm honestly really hoping she doesn't appear in the new Animal Crossing game... or at least the first person you see when entering your game.

I don't know if it's different where you live, but I feel like things have gotten so bad where I live that nobody has any respect or decency anymore. Nobody can just go to the cinema and watch a movie. They have to talk or spend the entire time on their phones or kick the seats.

I used to love going to the theater, but it's always a bad experience now. It's been that way for maybe the past 10 years or so. I watch a large variety of movies, including classics, but there's always someone sitting near me in the theater that ruins it for me. In fact, the adults are worse than the kids. Once, I was sitting next to an adult woman and her elderly mother. They clearly had no interest in the movie and just wanted to spend the day together. They talked to each other about random stuff throughout the entire movie. Another time, I was near a group of people (all adults) taking up 2 rows of the theater on opening night. The group in the first row literally turned their backs on the movie and talked to the people in the second row the entire time.

That's why I hate going to the theater now. If people would sit and try to enjoy the movie and respect the other people around them, I'm sure it would still be fun.

Well I mostly go to this "cinematheque" where they show oldies and odd stuff and classics etc. and since it's more or less geeks only there that actually has respect so yeah most likely. There are of course talkative people there too but at least they don't sit and fiddle with stuff and disturb too much and then people usually tell them off.

In your situation I'm surprised no one told them off or they had a guard there who could kick them out or such... The few times I go to a regular cinema I never see those family movies or just kid/teen stuff so I guess I'm good with having a picky taste lol.

Nah, I don't dislike watching movie in theaters for that reason. For me it's a multitude of reasons: The big ones being that the volume in theaters is too loud for me and when I'm watching movies at home, I can pause them to go to the bathroom instead of having to miss part of the movie. Plus, I despise public restrooms. I'd much rather watch movies at home.

- there are no good sitcoms anymore
- 1960's was the best time for music and television
- Tangled is so much better than Frozen
- The Osmonds over the Jacksons
- movies are really going downhill, they should be used as an art form, now most of them are cash grabs
- the beach blanket bingo movies are actually amazing
- Paddington 2 is one of the best movies out there.

I absolutely love the movie theater when they play old movies! A while back my local theater played Singin' in the rain. The audience clapped when musical numbers were over, stood up at the end. It was like being transported back to when it first played, it was amazing.

...It's more like destruction of property if anything, doesn't really fit into the category of theft whatsoever. It's not theft until you attempt to take an item off the premises without paying (or I guess eat stuff without paying).

Yes, 60s were the best music, and to huge parts movies as well. And yeah movies are either that or just dumb "based on a true story" that is basically not true at all in their depiction *cough danish girl cough*

Oh I got like two or three
Let's see
-i hate how people try use dead singers(or actors idk) for aesthetic purposes. Example: Lil Peep & Kurt Cobain.

-i hate how people try to censor their words so they don't get caught talking smack. It's annoying and dumb and just makes no sense. Example: Do/nald Tr/ump or D*nald Tr*mp

- dogs are better than cats. don't @ me on this one

Oh and I hate when there's a cartoon for kids and adults try to sexualize it or push their dumb ships onto the Creator's of said show. The show isn't for adults. It's for kids. So shut ur ass up and sit it down
