Unpopular film & TV opinions

Always thought The Shawshank Redemption was pretty overrated. OK prison drama, but nothing special. Bit too twee and earnest for my liking.

Ditto Lord of The Rings film trilogy which was garbage. No heart to it, just dumb, bombastic production values and nothing else. A grandiose mess of a film.
That's because it's based on the Lord of the Rings books. They are overly long, written in archaic prose for the time that has improved with the passage of time. Get the Eagles to fly Frodo to Mt Doom and he can lob it in.
 
"Mission Impossible" the first film with Tom Cruise.

Okay put aside Tom Cruise and all that shizzlle but in the original TV series Jim Phelps was a good guy. Do NOT turn him into a villain. It's not right!!
 
Dunno, at the time of writing this tmb post has attracted one positive and one negative reaction. It’d be interesting to see how that pans out…

I am sure plenty of people enjoy them, but that doesn't mean they aren't complete tosh.
I mean I don't mind a bit of tosh, but some of the older ones are a bit ick as well as being complete tosh.
 
Most popular reality TV programmes are not just fucking shite, but a stain on humanity. In particular those documenting the lives of parasitic celebrities, from Kardashians to surplus twats from Essex, and the likes of Love Island and other dating shows.

All really. Cheap way of making telly too.
