First I didn't think there were any but after a bit of thinking I came up with a few.
All James Bond movies, never realy appealed to me, so what he can do super human stunts and has gadgets, and gets girls. I find them boring, especialy the main character is boring.
Indiana Jones, never realy liked them, seen a bit of the films but not realy anything that makes me want to watch it, I can see an appeal for the character, but it also bores me.
The realit tv shows that focus on shalowness, such as people's faces, dancing and voices. I thought the show True Beauty might focus more on peoples inner beauty, but still it looked like they paid more attention to outer appearances and all of them were still realy shallow.
Merlin, I am a fan of mythology and I have doen looks over stories of King Arthur, but it just seems un interesting to me, especialy since they did changes to the original stories.

-Bond... James Bond: I like some of the movies, but I dislike the character, yet everyone else seems to love that sleazy perv of a hero.
-The Matrix: neat effects and all, but very overrated.
-Spider-Man: these movies were a disappointment, basically leaving out everything that I liked about Spider-Man and turning it into a cheesy soap opera.
-Star Wars: I used to love it as a kid, but I "grew out of it," and became sick of all the Star Wars ads and cultural references everywhere.
Star Wars did get old after watching it once
Sitcoms (most)
most sci fi original movies (Man-squito? mosquitoes that drink blood are female... at best it would be Hermaphrodite-squito)
anything highly romantic (particularly sappy)
anything geared towards tweens
most reality tv
pretty much anything on E
any pundit based tv news
soap operas
any Star Trek after maybe Picard (and some of TNG)
Pretty much any movie with Cruise, Costner or Keanu
Most movies with Adam Sandler, Jim Carrey or that can be labeled as ?bro-mance?
there is more but I can't remember it

American Idol, Miss Universe, America's Next Top Model, MTV awards, and anything similar.
Soaps like Ugly Betty, The O.C., Friends. I DO like Grey's Anatomy and CSI though.
Movies: Twilight, Sex and the City, Shopaholic (I've never gone to watch it, but everyone keeps talking about it!), most comedy/romance movies. I'd say Harry Potter too. Although I had an interest in it a while ago, right now, it's not really my thing anymore. Also, I tend to dislike most American comedies as the humor there tends to be very shallow; for example, I've been forced to watch Austin Powers many times. I didn't find Napoleon Dynamite all that funny, either.
