*** Additionally, some fans, including on this site blame the Jedi Order for the use of slave soldiers (the clones) and child soldiers (14 year old Jedi Padawans, and 10 year old Clone Troopers). All the while ignoring that the Jedi themselves are opposed to the war and are themselves conscripted and that the Clones are not child soldiers due to their enhanced growth.

* ''Film/TheNotebook'': A lot of women loved this movie, and wanted a relationship like Allie and Noah. The fact is, for all his charm, Noah is basically a stalker and their relationship is ridiculously toxic. They do nothing but fight when they're not making out, he asks her out, she says no, he refuses to take no for an answer, essentially emotionally blackmails her into going out with him. While he does build her dream house on a whim, and writes her 365 litters, one for every day of the year, but it is just part of his constant pressure on Allie. At least part of the misaimed part comes from the fact Noah is being played by young and deliberately very sexy Creator/RyanGosling.

* The unsubtle point of the movie ''Film/BeyondTheBlackRainbow'' is to criticize New Age beliefs as being ultimately destructive and leading to a backlash or paranoia, envy and hatred - VillainProtagonist Barry uses Elena's powers and the compound's technology to expand his consciousness and learn the truth about the universe - only to find out [[CosmicHorrorReveal it's not a happy truth]]. He ends the story as an AmbiguouslyHuman pervert and murderer. But, since a lot of the movie features trippy visuals, you have some people saying it'd be fun to watch while high.

** Also, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIlG9aSMCpg derka derka Muhammad Allah jihad]]" is used by some people to disparage Arabs and Muslims, when it's supposed to be a satire of the ridiculous image many Americans have of Arabs. Plenty of these racists know this, but think it's funny anyway, and [[JustJokingJustification then use "it's just satire" to make themselves feel self-aware.]] It may be meant to mock racism, but "those foreigners talk funny" is about as classic a racist joke as you'll ever find.

*** It certainly doesn't help that Tyler is so attractive in these surface level ways, but it's because [[spoiler: he's deliberately built that way in the Narrator's mind as his version of ideal masculinity, the kind of man he wishes he could be. The real world folks who idealize Tyler don't realize they're falling into the same trap as the Narrator himself, who they forget is depicted as severely mentally ill and is implied to have significant father issues resulting in a dysfunctional concept of masculinity]], also not noticing that the things Tyler so charismatically criticises about modern society (beauty standards, manipulation through propaganda, etc.) are some of the very things he embodies, just in an opposing direction to the norm.
