The reverse of that post I've made a week ago...

Rules: pick one movie or series and explain why you actually enjoyed it despite the criticism.

For me: The JJ Abrams Star Trek movies, by far the best ST stuff ever made, I couldn't take seriously the original universe with the dated effects and stiff acting, same goes for NG... These movies did ST actually great looking and much more believable, not just the effects.

A million ways to die in the west is a solid dumb comedy. The movie has dogshit reviews on every review site but I enjoyed it.

I unironically really want to see Seth McFarlane do more comedies like this one. It was a blast all the way through.

I can’t believe I want to see him in more sci-fi. I miss the Orville so much.

For some reason he’s who I pictured in my head when reading Project Hail Mary.

Was that show good? I actually never watched it.

I went in expecting family guy in space and instead I got a really good spoof of star trek with a comfortable mix of low-brow humor and well thought out commentary. I'd honestly give it a go if I were you, Seth McFarland is so much funnier than most give him credit for.

It’s Star Trek with Seth MacFarlane’s humor mixed in. I really enjoy it, and hope the rumors of a season 4 starting filming this year are true.

Plus I have a huge crush on Adrianne Palicki.

I know! I wish he did more.

"Ain't nobody have a dollar!"

"Yeah, show us the dollar!"

Pulls out a $1 bill; crowd gasps

"Take your hat off and show some respect, boy, that there's a dollar bill!"

Dad: You're late!

Seth: Late for fucking what?!

Dad: Fair Enough

It's full of good, snappy writing, too. Great skits all throughout.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

It's not as good as Ted but still great.

Huh, I think I didn't know (or just forgot) that it was panned... I liked it, it was fun
