LOTR is just hack and slash fantasy porn.
TDK trilogy is meh.
Shawshank isn't the greatest movie of all time (lol).
Tarantino isn't a great director.
Inception is about as challenging to the mind as Dirty Dancing is.

Probably post more when I think of them

Oh yeah agreed. Day Lewis' performance makes There will be Blood really, the other two are masterful all round.

Okay:

Clerks 2 is the worse mainstream comedy I've ever seen. Complete unfunny trash with an embarrassing attempt at pathos in the final third.

Seinfeld improved following Larry David's departure with its characters perfectly suited to the wackier tone.

Modern Family is a pretty average sitcom saved by some standout characters. The storytelling is lazy and the sentimental scenes conveying the message about the importance of family values that close out each episode are horribly overbearing.

Michael Caine is a shitty, one note actor.

Die Hard 3 is better than the first.
The Wire season 5 is great IMO
Tom Cruise is a good actor, and collateral is a masterpiece
Buffy Post season 3 is still good, but Angel overall is better.
Veronica Mars is one of the best shows of all time.
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood is the best Anime of all time.
Hitchcock is the greatest of all time and frankly nobody comes close (Kurosawa is a distant second)
The worst episode from season 3 to 8 of The Simpsons is better than the best episode of Family Guy (minus the spin off episode in season 8...that really did suck)
NCIS (until season 7 especially) is a damn brilliant Show
Supernatural post season 5 is still good

Monster is the GOAT. I guess that's unpopular b/c most people don't know what the fuck Monster is or dislike it b/c it's ANIME.

Don't know about GOAT, but I've heard a lot of good stuff about it. Going to go look for some episodes now.

That damn episode of Angel where he's a muppet gets me in stitches every time. Freaking great shit, there.

I've never been able to get into Monster to be honest. Never found it particularly suspenseful.

Another: The Prestige is Nolan's best film

Well it's not really a suspense story. It's a psychological thriller.

You hit the nail on the head there.
