Most hated film genres

[Big Swifty]

We are bombarded with all manner of films now via cinema, TV and internet outlets. Yet I find so few are of any interest to me. I hate the following:

Romantic comedies. Silly, boring, gooey and predictable (we know they'll end with the pair getting it together).

Superhero films (so-called). I grew out of them when I stopped reading comics when I was about thirteen.

Anything animated - usually fairy tales or such. Cartoons are basically for kiddies.


Posy French films. Because.... they're posy, and they're French. Enough said.

There's always been film dross but by heavens there's some dross now.

Let's have films for grown-ups.

Love the old movies nothing that comes out now could you watch time and time again. Watched ClintEastwood in Unforgiven the other day. I have seen it a few times before but watchable again.
While I am here anyone got any suggestions for a laugh out loud film?

We watched 2 "kitchen sink dramas" from the early 60s on 5 select channel yesterday afternoon.
"Saturday night Sunday morning"
followed by "A taste of honey."
Both real nitty gritty films about working class people and their trials and tribulations.
Great stories with great actors in both films.
Very watchable even though both films are almost 60 years old.

No genre is hated, they all have their fans. However i call bullshit on posuers who pretend they like New wave Czechoslovakian 1960s shite about pit miners.

Shrek? Loved those movies. Unless you mean ‘Donkey Doing Fiona Down on The Farm’ in which case...no as you were. Loved that one too.

Can't stand fantasy.

Everything I don't like is shit and nothing is as good as in the old days.

There's a cabin in the woods. What could go wrong?

There's an old house with an attic/ cellar/ other rooms that are always dark. Spooky!

Utter tosh.

Love a western. Love a space western (Star Wars etc). Love a proper comedy.

Hate rom-coms. Who gives a flying fuck.

 

[Daz_Blue]

Dislike westerns apart from the Clint Eastwood ones also hate romantic comedies too ....

I love British movies from the past, recently watched Lavender Hill Mob, To Sir With Love and Spring And Port Wine ( I bet Susan George hated the sight of that plate of food :) )
