Unpopular opinion time (super alpha no pony edition)

@Moonatik  
Didn’t mean you in particular just what I’ve seen in the fandom in general.

The fans take Star Wars too damn seriously.
 
And can all the people syaing that Star Wars is trying to pander to SJW’s kindly piss off?

@ice1517  
Finally, someone gets it.

@ice1517  
I’m not much of a Star Wars fan but I can see why people didn’t like the recent new movies.

@ice1517  
there shit films. good films wouldn’t have this kind of backlash.  
this aren’t great films.

@Angrybrony  
They’re OK films with too high expectations.

@Marx  
True, but trying to boot it out of the series even though one can argue that the prequels were worst? There’s not liking a movie, and than there’s being pissy about it.

@Meanlucario  
This is why space opera is just as hated as romance.

@Meanlucario  
the prequels weren’t this shitty and pretentious and off putting.

Space Opera Is fucking underrated
 
Change my mind

@Hollowfox the Stallion  
Space opera is not underrated, just underutilised.

@Hollowfox the Stallion  
Star Wars is overrated.

@Angrybrony
 
That’s complete bullshit.
 
Movies like the Fast and Furious franchise receive praise and mountains of cash despite being mediocre. And there are plenty of underrated greats throughout the years that were either ignored or panned, like Bladerunner when it first came out.
 
Backlash doesn’t mean shit in today’s over sensitive, overly loud media culture. You’re being just as obnoxious as the idiot radfems creating “backlash” against movies that don’t load up on female characters. All ya’ll loud ass nutters are screaming the same things with a slightly different flavor.
 
Shit movies also don’t make a billion.
 
Again, unless you’re a Fast and Furious movie apparently.

Pride month is unnecessary because LGBT is not a race nor an ethnicity. Its not like black history month nor American Indian heritage month.

@Exceptionally Average Individual And Lurker  
Still.
 
I’m just frustrated there isn’t any fun space opera films that isn’t hated by everyone. Same with romance anime.

@Zincy  
Or a Bayformers movie.

@Background Pony #86BF  
What’s wrong with sexual orientations? Or being proud of who they are?

@Background Pony #86BF  
Sure, it isn’t a race or ethnicity, but why does that matter? LGBT+ peoples are a minority and are discriminated against and abused. Politicians constantly attack their rights. From getting married to who they love, to adopting, to not being allowed necessary healthcare, to being tortured and abused by “conversion therapy”. Too many LGBT+ people live in fear. So how dare you say they shouldn’t be proud of who they are, when who they are is shat upon by many.

@HJSDGCE, God’s Wrath  
So is Blade Runner.
 
Why? It made one of my friends hate the MLP movie despite liking the show and made me think of the no Scotsman fallacy.

@Hollowfox the Stallion
 
I flipped through the list of billion dollar movies. Other than a handful of oddities (in the form of Johnny Depp movies weirdly enough) most seemed to deserve their spots. Star Wars included.

@Hollowfox the Stallion  
No True Scotsman? Where the hell did that come from?

@Angrybrony  
Have you seen the prequels? It’s pure George Lucas high off his ass due to the success of the original trilogy, and it’s much more awkward than Last Jedi. Say what you want, but at least Last Jedi was entertaining and had good parts.

@Exceptionally Average Individual And Lurker  
I don’t know. I used to think like that since one of my friends, Ethan Anania, who is a fan of the show, hated the movie and doesn’t wanna see it.
 
Heck, I even said that in the Vent thread, long before Hasbro’s reputation on the film industry was far from salvaged with the film’s rotten score (despite the film being faithful to the source material).

@Hollowfox the Stallion  
Oh sweet Jesus, why the hell are people even remotely surprised that tbe MLP movie isn’t getting universal Citizen Kane-esque praise?

@Hollowfox the Stallion  
Faithfulness doesn’t mean good, especially if the source isn’t good. The MLP movie I hear is OK.
