Unpopular Opinion
Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Especially when they show a bunch of dead characters, and then you rewind and see them kissing their kids goodbye or petting a puppy and promising to take them to the park when they retire tomorrow. That's just emotional manipulation, and it makes me feel detached from all of those characters. "None of this backstory matters because they will all be irrelevant to the story soon."
Then they do that bullshit fakeout "haha, nobody was actually dead, they were pretending for some contrivance so we could make you think they would be dead. Eveybody is alive and the puppy does get to go to the park!" That's not a happy ending. Go fuck yourself, that's a happy ending. You, the filmmaker, fucking off and stubbing your toe, that would make me feel better about your attempt at forcing me to care.
