Unpopular Film/TV/Music/Video Games Opinions

Really? That I did not know. Gorgeous game, great characters. I still hold out hoping they re-release it with a battle system a bit more like 10's.

I think he likes it because it is the closest thing to how he originally imagined the series. If you play FF1, it's very similar. Same characters (or character classes) and the more... castles and dragons style than seven and eight.

I think it's a brilliant story and great characters (and waaaay funnnier that 7 or 8, my favourite) My only hassle with all the FF games is going through the development again. First time leveling up is a treat, second time its a chore (less so in ten).

Yeah, it was terrible. Fortunately I rarely get that far on my play throughs.

For the last few games its been that way. Beat the antagonist, beat the secret real antagonist, beat some random thing that made no sense!

Makes sense, as much as I like Steampunk, I do so very much prefer the fantasy aspect of 9, and this probably makes me sound a bit plain, but I prefer character classes instead of the more free-forming character development. I just like having a little black mage, with strengths and weaknesses that you can adapt too, and a near unstoppable Knight with strengths and weaknesses that you can adapt too, as opposed to the cover all bases style of everyone doing magic and summoning eidelons and that.

I agree it is so much funnier, Steiner has me in stitches at times.

Haven't touched a Final Fantasy since 12, and 9 was the last I played to completion, and the one I always go back to, but yeah, it wasn't a formula worth repeating.

"Maaaaybe we should just go back and apologise to the queen and she'll be ok with it cause she's sound.. even if she blew up them cities and tried to have us killed, several times?"!

12 was a shambles. Fun, but no plot. 13 was rough. 13-2 was good, but you'd have to have played through 13 for it to make any sense. You made the right decision. 13-2 brought back gambling though. Most my FF time was spent playing cards or blitzball. And of that I am proud.

Bless him, I prefer to think of him as the guy who went mad at the Black Waltz after it butchered all those other Black Mages

Seems that way, I wasn't sure if I was maturing beyond them, or they were just becoming too emo, too much focus on angsty teens
 
What is the best war film in your opinions? I'd probably go with Apocalypse Now.

Well I guess my opinion is an unpopular one as I found Apocalypse Now to be boring as hell. It started off fairly well and had one or two cool action scnes, beyond that though it was a snoozefest! Marlon Brando, putting water on his bald head and reading from a book, that's considered great acting?
 
First Person Shooters are falling away in terms of actual quality in both regular gameplay and the competitive scene due to the fact that many of theme follow the same format and lack any real "meta game" changes and only continue to be played because they have been around so long that they have an incredibly popular history behind them.

There's a reason why games such as Street Fighter, League of Legends and StarCraft will always have a life long spot in both regular and competitive gaming.

The most interesting FPS's I played on PS3/360 were Resistance (because of the unique story and weapons) and Bulletstorm (because of the gameplay mechanic of points) all the rest have been interchangeable with nothing really defining about them

Yes, many of the current stock of FPS games just have no real... shifting meta game that I can think of.

Once you learn what works, and what guns are the best, it usually never changes.

Games like TRIBES and Shadowrun had the potential for shifting meta games, especially if they were continually balanced by patching.
 
Citizen Kane is long and boring. Film elitists tout it as one of the greatest technical cinematic achievements, but as viewer who only wants to be entertained and escape for an hour, I think it is black-and-white sleep-inducing drivel. I'd rather subject myself to repeated viewings of Jack & Jill than watch Citizen Kane again. Let me claim my philistine card, please.
 
An Unexpected Journey > Fellowship of the Ring

Pah, this is purely hipster opinion. Fellowship has Sean Bean in it. Richard Armitage is a poor replacement.

Actually the entire LOTR trilogy is worth watching just for Boromir's last stand and Pelennor Fields.

I swear Boromir had more character development in Fellowship Of The Ring (and that 5 minute part from the extended Two Towers) than any of the other characters did in three films
