Unpopular opinions
Feb. 24th, 2007 08:24 pmStargate. Let's see. I have a few of those, don't I?
1. Now this is unpopular depending on what circle you're in. Also, anyone on my flist already knows this one; I got sick and tired of Daniel Jackson since S5. He turned into nothing but a whiny and obnoxious character and his death was just in time. I wish he'd never returned because MS is a poor actor and annoys me beyond belief. Also, he's not hot.
2. This ties in with 1. I don't think Daniel/Vala is romantic at all. Daniel treats her like crap and I keep missing the so called chemistry between them. Possibly because I keep staring at the chemistry CB has with BB. But la.
3. RDA hasn't been hot since S6. I don't miss him in the new season AT ALL. Any time I hear he's going to make an appearance, I cring. His acting has gotten as shoddy as MS's and I wish he would just stay away from the series if he so obviously doesn't give a damn about it anymore.
4. I don't like Teal'c biceps. CJ is way too beefy for my taste.
5. I loathe episodes along the line of Wormhole X-treme.
6. I adore S9 and S10 even when it's not always great. Cameron and Vala made me love the show again while the people that I used to adore have done nothing to keep me interested.
7. I don't like Teal'c as a person. I've already debated this ages ago and it might just be the whole Jaffa culture, but I can not love this character. He's got not problems cheating on his wife or any woman he's involved with. While I love the dynamic he has with Cameron, the last aired episode reminded me once more how little I do care for Teal'c. He very easily crosses that ethical line where he takes revenge too far.
Veronica Mars. Mwah, I have a few predictable ones here.
1. I don't like Veronica/Logan. I used to be able to stand it, but now I simply loathe the pairing. OTPs are about the happy and the making each other better. Logan and Veronica continously tear each other down.
2. I don't like Logan all that much either. I hate the person that he is around Veronica. I hate the whiny character he turned in to in S3. I'm not all too fond of characters like him. We're supposed to forgive him for being a jackass because he got messed up by his parents, but he continues to disappoint and not offer any redeemable qualities. (Also, wow he really shouldn't take his shirt off because he looks weird.)
3. I actually think I could have liked Logan with Hannah. He did change for her, he wanted to be a better person around her.
4. I love Piz. I think Piz could be good for Veronica too. He's bouncy and cute and sweet. He's everything Logan is not.
You can give me more fandoms to comment on here.

They're only interesting when they're unhappy, and if these two are driven to plunge again and again into the flame, like the batty little mothbrains they are, let them. More fun for me!

Date: 2007-02-24 07:39 pm (UTC)I suppose it makes him realistic (the dark edges to the character, not the biceps), but it doesn't make me like him.

And yes, beefy muscles are weird and not hot.
I like Daniel all geeky and with glasses. I find him to be kind of hot when he's geeky and with glasses lol.
And Daniel/Vala annoys me. Daniel treats her like crap.
And yes, silly episodes like Wormhole X-Treme are annoying.

Date: 2007-02-24 11:55 pm (UTC)Reasonably, I think I should agree with you about Stargate. But I tend to slip into heavy denial when it comes to that show and view all the characters through rose-colored glasses. I like my gateverse idyllic and thought-free.

Date: 2007-02-25 12:43 am (UTC)Hahaha! I just came to the realization the other day that I don't like Teal'c all that much. When they show reruns of episodes that focus on him, I tend to watch something else.
And Daniel. *sigh* Part of me will always like Daniel because he reminds me of someone I used to know. I'm to the point where I just wish he would go away though because I hate Michael Shanks' acting.
It could just be Sam, Vala and Cam (no OT3 though please) and I would be happy.
VM:
Piz is awesome!
I still like Logan and I'm even starting to like Dick. I know I would hate them in RL though. It is kind of like
