Funko Pops, to me.

I understand that some of them are fairly overpriced, but I also really like them as is. It doesn't work on all characters, but it sometimes work on a lot and there's so much representation and variety that it's good to have a few.

If people want to talk about waste of plastic and vinyl, they should bark at the companies who make teeny tiny figurines that serve no purpose and have so little detail that spending any money on them is a waste.

The live action Cowboy Bebop

After Dragonball Evolution, I can no longer be convinced that live-action anime adaptations will ever work.

Go full blown animated or don't even try.

Avatar the last airbender serie is a pretty cool adaptation.

Ty! It was so good. I was so disappointed when it got just shit on by the fan base. I was never huge into anime, but I did watch the original, and thought the live action was really good and faithful where it counted.

Iโ€™m going to put up another movie, The Dark Tower.

Iโ€™m a big Stephen King fan, and the Dark Tower series is probably my favorite work of his, aside from The Stand.

I think the movie got too much hate from all the stans and it was clearly just farther along in the many turns of the wheel of Ka.

Teen Titans Go.

I think most of the hate came from the people who grew up with the 2003 show, which ended abruptly, leading them to believe that TTG was meant to be a replacement.

Most of the hate has died down now, but I still think all that contempt was unwarranted.

Yep, all 3 of my kids loved TTG. I understand where people are coming from but the show has some genuinely funny moments

Open-minded conversation.

I was surprised when I learned that Pikmin 3 is often disliked or even hated. It's shamelessly my fave game of the series. I get that the story is shorter than it should be and it's more linear but it has this charm that's unmatched, and I enjoy the graphics style so much that it inspired several facets of my artstyle even. Also the mission mode is just the right difficulty and a ton of fun!

Their music algorithm has been better to me than any of the others. And the amount of educational videos I end up watching far exceeds what I would have found on any other streaming platform.

[โ€“] tacosplease@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I agree. For now ...

High Guardian Spice. I'm not personally an enjoyer of it, but the amount of criticism it received was vastly, vastly out of proportion simply because it was "woke".

And as Ada said, trans people.
