Movies You Hate Because of the Fans

[Suntory_Times]

Kind of the reverse to the thread question, but the Internet trashing of the latest Indiana Jones film just make me enjoy it even more (as he goes flying through the air I just imaging all those who claim the original trilogy was never wacky like this screaming in anguish on there first viewing).

Oh! that is just another argument we don't want to start again But I agree I don't see how someone can claim that Indy 4 is garbage compare to the other movies, all 4 are Indy movies with the same silly jokes, over the top action and impossible stunts. That's what Indy is all about.

The problem is that too many people see to take their hatred now of Lucas (other thing I sure don't get) to very unhealthy levels. I swear if Lucas was part of Band Of Brothers, everyone on the net would be destroying this series instead of praising it, just because they see his names somewhere in the credits

Across The Universe: I can never give this movie a fair shot, good or bad, simply because of the artsy girls (specifically, one girl) who annoyed the shit out of me during my first viewing of the trailer. Saw it during Spiderman 3 and this one girl with a group of us was freaking out the whole time and eventually declared it the "best movie ever."

Transformers 2: I feel as a loyal Batman supporter last summer that this movie is somehow competition, and I was glad to see it get shit reviews because I always found the first one overrated (yet I own it on BD, still not sure why).

Twilight: We watched the baseball scene and it was so very stupid and lame. It actually disappoints me when female friends of mine admit to LOVING this movie, far too trendy and easy.

And had to add and repeat what has already been said...

The Dark Knight: I love this rebooted franchise and still really enjoy Batman Begins (I'll have to wait a few years to make a comparison), but I can see how people are annoyed with the fanbase (that I was apart of last summer). Months later, I reflected that it was not infact the greatest movie ever and had flaws. The Oscar freakout was enough to make me just embarassed to be a fan of the movie.

there's no movie i simply hate because of fans. if i like or dislike a movie, it's because of factors based solely on the movie's production (story, casting, acting, cinematography, music, etc), not public appeal or fanbase. that being said, there are a great many movies where the hysteria of crazed fans all over the world and internet has turned me off from wanting to see a movie (harry potters come to mind), but has never really prevented me from doing so

I wouldn't say I hate a movie because of its fans. Due to the sometimes rampant lunacy of the fanbase I do however refrain (now) from discussions of:
Star Wars
Star Trek
Transformers
Dark Knight
directors
actors


basically I rarely post in this section of the board *cough* signature *cough* because many simply cannot understand how someone else can disagree with them without being incompetent, an idiot, not a film lover etc...

LOL to all that support that argument I refer them to the following:

Temple of Doom: Is it just me or did Indy and the gang jumped off an airplane IN A LIFERAFT with no parachute fell on a mountaintop, went off a cliff and survived?

Temple of Doom: The entire mine cart sequence. Need I say more?
