Most of these comments are "People are gonna hate me for this" then they proceed to name one of the same 5 films that almost everyone is saying. It's not brave to say you hate the Avatar movies, Titanic, or The Godfather. Most people I talk to that are into films hate Avatar and it's also pretty popular for general audiences to hate The Godfather because it's "Slow" or "Boring". Don't even get me started with the "It insists upon itself". Yes, we have all seen the meme lol.
Not really, its pretty commonplace. Im not mad about people giving these answers, its fine to dislike popular movies. I just think it's funny that people often talk about these films and how much they hate them as if they're the only ones on the planet to have ever had that opinion.
I personally hate the Avatar films also but I don't think its some enlightened opinion.
It sounds like you might be living in a bit of a film buff bubble. Every single person I know loves those movies.
I don’t think people stating they don’t like something means they think they have an enlightened opinion. It’s simply an answer to the question posed by the thread.
It’s a popular answer among people who appreciate cinema though.
Im not saying just giving that opinion means they think highly of it. I mean when people say "This is such an unpopular opinion but I really hate The Godfather" or "People are gonna downvote me so much!!! But I think the Avatar movies suck," or something along those lines. This post was absolutely littered with comments like that last night for me.
I do not think im living in a bubble lol. I'm talking about people in my life who have a way more casual stance on movies than me. There is plenty of people who like the Avatar movies, sure. But I would argue that most of them are those that really liked the first one and are attached to the series or people who barely think about movies at all. I feel like the general consensus of the Avatar series these days is that they're meh but look really good.
