I hate summer what's so great about a season that makes everything so dry you have to water your garden every morning trying to keep your plants alive and seeing your lawn turning into a dust bowl, not to mention the flies, the heat, feeling lethargic and getting a headache, also there's nothing but sport on telly Summer is the worst boring time of the year.

I find "emojis" to be a rather stupid concept. And the stupidity was cranked up when they made pillows out of them.

I really hate the Anime, Squid Girl.

IMO, most anime are so ridiculous.

I don't think that either Gene Wilder or Johnny Depp properly portrayed the Willy Wonka I remember from the book. Both had moments that came close, but I felt both versions also had their flaws.

Many cyclists think that they are better than everyone else just because they own a bicycle.

I know, many are so over the top and wacky. Plus the fanservice, oh how anime loves it some fanservice.

I don't think that the movie Frankenweenie was as good as everyone made it out to be.

I loved everything up until the end. Just when you think the movie will have some integrity and force the kid to be mature and deal with the death of his dog and learn to let him go, this BS happy ending comes out of nowhere. The dog lives! Everyone's happy! Don't cry, kids! :? It reminded me of the happy ending tacked onto the theatrical cut of Blade Runner. It's phony, dishonest, and reeks of cowardice.

Thank you. Glad I'm not the only one who sees this. I did like the visual references to classic horror iconography and the stop motion animation was good, but the characters I didn't find interesting and the ending ruined the movie for me. The dad even brought up the moral halfway through the movie, but then at the end just throws it completely out the window. The funny thing is that I don't even think it was Burton's original vision for it to end like that. I mean, he's killed off key characters in movies like Big Fish, Corpse Bride, and Sweeney Todd. The ending to Frankenweenie reeks of studio subterfuge. If I want a horror movie from 2012, I'd much rather watch Hotel Transylvania or ParaNorman. At least with those movies I don't feel like my intelligence is being insulted.

There's nothing wrong with being fat if you're an Endomorph. It's just that the media is too obsessed with thinness and fitness. I know I don't want to be a Barbie girl in a Barbie world.

Some WP members have too large signatures and should compress them, as it's annoying to see the same wall of text every time they post.

I'm not a fan of Disney or Pixar. I find their movies/shows to be trite and cliché.

IMO, Coldplay is really overrated and a cheap ripoff of a far better band, U2.

I don't believe there's such a thing as "special snowflakes".
