Critical Backlash

I honestly never thought Johnny Test was really bad. It's not an amazing show but it had it's moments. I was surprised by how much hatred the show got online.

Multiple English dubs of anime, several films of the 2000s.

To pity someone is to tell them "I feel bad about being better than you."

I actually think Star Ocean:The Last Hope is a good game. The English dub honestly isn't that bad and the story isn't that bad either. The characters aren't original but they're alright. The Star Ocean fandom seem to hate this game, but I really liked it.

I unironically enjoy Speed Racer, both the anime for being a fun and exciting (if a bit formulaic) series and the movie for being an entertaining and loving distillation of the best parts of the series that's a hell of a lot of fun on its own.

I also enjoyed the 2005 Fantastic Four movie and its sequel for capturing the original comics' lighthearted sense of adventure, and how well it "got" the personalities of the FF themselves. Yeah, Dr. Doom is a letdown, there's some awkwardly-written scenes in both, and I wish Galactus would've made an actual appearance aside from a silhouette, but they're still good adaptations, I think.

Weird in a Can (updated M-F)

I think Breath of Fire Dragon Quarter is legitimately a brilliant game, and that if it was made as an unrelated game without the expectations placed upon it by the brand, would not have received anywhere near the backlash it did.

I liked them too. :)

I like to keep my audience riveted.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

C'mon Dude. Keep it on topic. This is Critical Backlash, not Hype Backlash.

Oh, thought it went both ways here. Sorry, I'll delete my post.

Having just watched it last night, I know a lot of people say the Watchmen movie isn't quite as good as the comic book it came from, but I thought it did a pretty good job.

I think Pixels is a fun, enjoyable film. Also, I unironically enjoy the music of Kid Rock for the most part.

Dubstep.

I honestly don't think Nu Metal is as bad as people say it is. There were some bad bands but there were some good bands as well.

Bumping this thread.

I personally liked Home on The Range. It's a fun little movie.

I also like The Black Cauldron. It's an underrated movie.

I like that one too. :) As a matter of fact, it came out on video just in time for my 13th birthday. How cool is that?

Perhaps amazingly, The Room.

However, despite what I learn about it due to The Disaster Artist, I can't forgive Tommy for a few of his more... questionable actions.

More, I can appreciate everybody else in the film and think frankly they're doing about as good a job as they can, and Greg, Juliette and Carolyn all in the film just evoke sympathy from me, and I have a very particular understanding for those three from what I now know.

So, in its own way I feel the backlash is way overblown, and most of them deserve at least SOME sympathy for what they are put through.

"Did you expect somebody else?"

I didn't think Yoshi's Island DS and Yoshi's New Island were that bad - though I agree the latter could use better music, but on the other hand it also fixes my main "issue" about the collectibles (having to collect all the red coins, flowers AND stars in one run - in New Island you just have to collect everything in one category and it gets saved for later) and as a completionist I'm really grateful for that x3

"Leftover items still have value!"

Bump.

So, I feel like Daredevil is unfairly hated by some people. It's always been one of my favorite movies.

I also like Blade: Trinity

Not exactly a "work", but I honestly kinda like Konami's 2010 E3 conference, at least it looked like they were having fun on stage and that makes me happy to see :3

Looney Tunes: Back in Action. I personally thought it was a very nice movie, but I'm sad no one else agrees.

" I'm the princess! Everyone has to do what I say!"

RE Johnny Test- my brother used to watch that. Of all the kids' shows I was subjected to while babysitting, that one was one of the more tolerable ones.

I really like Shin Megami Tensei IV, although the SMT fan base doesn't seem to agree. I wonder if it being the first game in the series that I played has something to do with it?

I agree with you. :)

,As will I. The "humongous rock" gag was priceless.

Same here. were there some pretty crappy bands in it? yes but there's plenty of crap in every genre. Also I think some of the bagging on it is also backdoor racism since some Nu Metal bands incorporated elements of rap in their music.
