When I tell people I've never seen the Lion King they are really baffled by that.

A lot of early 90s late 80s comedies. As a kid I always just thought it was adults acting really dumb. And for the most part I still think that about that era.

Maybe because cocaine and pills?

Friends and the office.

GoT because I'd read the first two books and got bored of a medieval soap opera where the writer substitutes misery porn for a plot.

Breaking Bad because Bryan Cranston vaguely irritates me (I don't know why, I'm sure he's a lovely man).

Zombie related stuff because seriously, it was non-stop shit zombie movies for almost a decade and I'm bored of it. It's just become another lazy trope. Exception: Zombieland.

Breaking Bad because Bryan Cranston vaguely irritates me (I don’t know why, I’m sure he’s a lovely man).

It is honestly refreshing to see this kind of honesty including not knowing why.

Everything I've seen and heard indicates that he is in fact a wonderful person. But I'm not going to argue with you, because I have such an intense hatred for Hugh Grant and Richard Gere. And I don't have a rational explanation as to why.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

The Office. Arrested Development. Parks and Recreation. Breaking Bad. Game of Thrones.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I’ve never seen Avatar (movie, not the anime)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sopranos, Game of Thrones. Basically anything produced for HBO.

I caught the first 2-1/2 seasons of The Wire because of a promotion on Hulu.

It boils down to: I'm a cheapskate.

Yo ho me hearty, 'tis no excuse says I.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Godfather, Shawshank, lotr, the wire, six feet under, I'm sure there's a lot more. I enjoy watching such epic films for the first time late on. Just having the time to approach them whenever I want is nice

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

You don't need to rush LotR or Shawshank, they will still be excellent whenever you get to them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Rick and Morty

Keeping Up with the Kardashians

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I realized have never seen a single episode of 24.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I'd tell you about the popular movie I haven't seen, but the first rule says I can't talk about it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Name a popular live action show from the past maybe close to a decade or sooner that aired in America and I probably have not seen it. Or if I have, it's because my parents watch it and I happen to be in the area for a little bit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

That applies to all Disney movies for me. The last one i saw was The Beauty and the Beast when it came out. My then girlfriend dragged me to the cinema to see it. It wasn't awful but I had no inclination to see another one ever since.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Breaking Bad, Parks and Rec, The Office, The Wire, Game of Thrones, John Wick

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Sopranos, Breaking Bad, The Goonies, Gremlins, the new Avatar, most Star Trek movies, any movie like La La Land, Finding Nemo, Frozen, a lot more.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

The Godfather. And I don't really plan on seeing it because I don't like the genre or those tropes.

I hear good things about How I Met Your Mother but I'm too lazy to pillage it. Arrgh!

Breaking Bad, Star Wars, Game of Thrones, Avatar,

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Pulp fiction for the movie, and friends for the show

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Most of the "current" ones because I have not really watched TV for years. I see a lot of stuff on social media about them which is the only way I know that they exist.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

The Walking Dead, Keeping up with the Kardashians, Jersey Shore
