That’s hardly a hot take. Even people who blindly hate every single thing Skylar did (even though sometimes she actually did have a better course of action than Walt, like coming up with the plan to buy the car wash, or pointing out they were making far more money than they could ever hope to launder convincingly) would agree that Ted is objectively worse than her.

Jessie Pinkman was the true cause of everyone’s downfall.

Breaking Bad is one of the most overrated shows ever and was only good at finding new ways to jump the shark.

bender is inferior to homer in everyway..

I love futurama it's a great show

 

[Doom85]

Jessie Pinkman was the true cause of everyone’s downfall.

I agree, why couldn’t Jesse be chill about working for child-murdering Neo Nazis? And what did Walt ever do personally to Jesse? Only gaslight him constantly, let his first girlfriend die, guilt-tripped him into murdering an innocent man, and nearly killed his second girlfriend’s son. Why, you couldn’t ask for a better friend than Walter White!

See, Walt’s just as shocked that Jesse wanted out of this abusive relationship as I am!

American Horror Story is not a good show

 

[Grildon Tundy]

This thread is tailor made for EverydayBeast . Get ITT!

Take: Early seasons of The
Simpsons were contemporarily criticized for being cynical and degenerate compared to shows like The Waltons, only to have a reputation of having "heart" when compared to shows today, and this makes me wonder how much the nuclear family and traditional ways of thinking have been devalued over time

Walt should have left him to rot.

 

[Ragnarok]

There hasn’t been a good action movie since Universal Soldier Regeneration and before that Matrix 1

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

I have a couple....

1.) Friends was NOT the best comedy of the 1990's. That honor is Senfield, followed by Frasier!.

2) While Sopranos, Wire, and Breaking Bad get all the publicity for GOAT's. They all have faults, and "The Shield" is much closer to them in terms of quality, and has a the best "payoff" at the end of the series.

 

[DetectiveBananas]

Jaws was the hero trying to fight human overpopulation while protesting against overfishing!

 

[Batiman]

The later seasons of Game of thrones aren’t nearly as bad as people say.

The devil doesn’t wear Prada or shoes probably.

I agree with this. However, they were rushed and not nearly as good.

 

[Billbofet]

Big Bang Theory is for people that lack a sense of humor and are likely to recommend Schitt's Creek to you, often.

 

[TrueLegend]

Friends is for idiots without taste.

My hot take was going to be that The Shield's ending is VASTLY overrated.

Great show though, I'd just been told the ending was the best ending in TV and I have no idea why. It's just good. Best ending in TV history is still Six Feet Under probably.

That's an arctic take. BBT is the butt of the joke for anyone who doesn't watch it.

As it should be.

Christopher Nolan's movies are shallow as fuck just pretending to be deep.

 

[dr_octagon]

Damages > Suits.

 

[Flatline]

Christopher Nolan's movies are shallow as fuck just pretending to be deep.

Partly agree, the ones written by Nolan himself are indeed shallow, the ones written by his brother are mostly excellent.

Kevin Smith hasn't made anything watchable since the 90's

Stranger Things is a 6/10 across the board.

With the exception of Lower Decks, modern Star Trek is offensively bad

 

[WoodyStare]

Everything that Jon Favreau has written or directed in movies/TV is terrible.

Friday the 13th Parts 1-7, and Jason X are all fun to watch.

Rob Zombie’s Halloween 2 is a fantastic horror film with one of the best depictions of trauma and mental health I’ve ever seen.

Showgirls is another Verhoeven masterpiece.

I love all of the Milla Jovovich Resident Evil films and don’t give a fuck how accurate they are to the games.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

Completely agree. Ironically the “black sheep” of Star Trek…DS9, was the best Trek. Lower decks though has a lot of potential.

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

Lord of the Rings Trilogy is boring. I like to call it Bore of the Rings

Zack Snyder is a pretentious dude bro director. I get so bored while watching his films. I call him Dudebro, boring, or pretentious Snyder

MCU past Phase 3 has been massively disappointing

I'm not a fan of The Guardians of The Galaxy films. Not a fan of James Gunn. I wish him luck though as the Head of DC

I wish Matt Reeves was given the keys to the whole DC Universe

 

[Nico_D]

He is certainly the better writer. I wouldn't say they are excellent either but better.

You shut your whores mouth on that one.

Joss Whedons writing is bad. It's always been bad. He just had a few good ideas.

Scary Movie 3 is better than Scary Movie 2

 

[BadBurger]

Scream Queens season one is the most jerk-worthy TV ever

 

[PapaEmeritus]

Roll your hands together very fast, that's a Steven Seagal movie

 

[drganon]

Jaws 3d is the best jaws sequel.

 

[kurisu_1974]

Westworld TV series is pretentious, boring and drawn out and even 1976's Futureworld is vastly superior entertainment.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Rings of power is excellent TV.

Most Scorsese films are over rated. B tier Coppola. Most not all

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

How dare you

 

[WoodyStare]

Scary Movie 3 is better than Scary Movie 2

Scary Movie 3 is arguably the best of the franchise with Zucker’s zany sense of humor, but the first film is still fucking hilarious.

Why I never…

That’s not a hot take - that’s trolling.

depends on the mood if I find 1 or 3 better.
but the typical Zucker brothers style humor of 3 usually makes me think of it more fondly.

Superhero Movie also is in that category, also a David Zucker movie. it's not all great but there are like 2 scenes where my stomach hurt from laughing for a solid 10min when I first saw it

Airplane, Top Secret, and Naked Gun are some of my favorite comedies, and I love that Scary Movie 3 has a similar feel to all of them. I remember back when it released people were skeptical of the change to PG-13, but in retrospect it was an ingenious move hiring Zucker for it.

I didn’t see Superhero Movie because the ads gave me Seltzer/Friedberg vibes, but I’ll have to give it a shot sometime.

 

[e0n]

I don't like Alien or Aliens; in fact, I never liked Ridley's entire filmography.

 

[01011001]

it's not amazing, but has a few great scenes.
it's sadly not really the typical Zucker style, I think they concentrated a but too much on recreating scenes from Spider-Man, leaving not much room for the usual high frequency jokes/gags

 

[Dural]

Kickass is the best superhero movie and is better than the comic it's based on.

Entourage is the most rewatchable TV show.

 

[Baradox]

The Dark Knight is one of the most overrated movies of all time.
