12 Unpopular Opinions

1. Movie adaptations of comics, books etc.: I don’t care at all about faithfulness. I’ve read the source, I want to see someone else’s interpretation (ex. I’m a fan of the Fantastic Four, yet I never go to boards that discuss the movie, because people just keep bitching).

2. I think Draco Malfoy is, well, a cipher (a complete nonentity). I doubt that he’s important in the overall picture of things.

3. I so hate the idea of Scott and Emma together, I can’t stand it (refers to X-Men comics).

4. I dislike stories that have characters that act in ways counter to t heir established personalities (all fandoms).

5. I’m not very fond of Sirius/Remus. In fact I think it’s quite stupid.

6. Not all people should be allowed to write. Especially if you don’t understand: Subject/verb agreement, punctuation, spelling etc.

7. You should be able to tell people that they are saying something stupid (or at least silly or not well thought out). I think you’re doing them a service. (i.e People who still think Sirius is alive)

8. Anyone who praises crappy writing should be taken and made to read good stories.

9. Any pairing with Draco Malfoy involved makes me nauseous. (Yes, I mention him twice, but I can’t understand the affection that some people hold for him).

10. I don’t want to spend time in a story that wallows in misery. I don’t mind stories where bad things happen, but I have to invest myself emotionally to bother reading something, and I hate feeling miserable afterwards.

11. I think shipping is stupid (yes, despite the fact that I actually ship H/G). It’s stupid and a waste of time.

12. I think that you should actually like the main character of a book/comic/movie. Otherwise, why do you care what happens? If you don’t like them, and the story is basically about them, why waste time with something you don’t like.
