The Sinking Ship: One moviegoer's issue with 'Titanic' was that the boat sinks at the beginning! Can you believe it? But here's the twist: they didn't mind the love story, just the fact that the ship was doomed from the start.
A Giant Gorilla's Logic: A friend of mine walked out of 'King Kong' because it was 'a bit far-fetched.' Really? A giant gorilla? Who knew that was a deal-breaker!
Vegetation Overload: My grandma's dislike for 'Star Wars' was due to the lack of greenery. Yes, you read that right! She wanted more vegetation in the galaxy far, far away.
Cold Temperatures, Cold Feet: A friend refuses to watch movies set in cold climates, citing that he hates the cold. So, no winter wonderlands for him! But, does he mind the summer heat in 'The Beach'?
Ben Stiller's Dad: My mom's dislike for Ben Stiller movies stems from her dislike of his dad's character in 'King of Queens.' Talk about a family affair!
A Western Misunderstanding: A guy I dated in 1999 walked out of 'Wild Wild West' because he thought it was a western. Oops! He didn't know it was a sci-fi adventure.
The Sinking Ship, Again: Another 'Titanic' hater because the boat sinks? Really? But this time, they didn't mind the love story, just the fact that it was a given from the start.

Breakfast Club's Misstep: A buddy was upset that 'The Breakfast Club' wasn't about kids eating breakfast. Who knew a movie about high school cliques could be so controversial?
Ugly Wallpaper: My mom dislikes a movie if there's ugly wallpaper, and her main criticism of 'Silver Linings Playbook' was no exception. Talk about a visual pet peeve!
Unrealistic Roads: My dad thought 'One Battle After Another' was terrible because the road in the car chase scene was too steep and windy. Who knew a winding road could be so problematic?
Redundancy in 'Groundhog Day': A coworker didn't like 'Groundhog Day' because it was 'redundant.' But, isn't the concept of reliving the same day over and over again the whole point?
A Muppet Mystery: My wife hates 'The Muppet Christmas Carol' for reasons she can't explain. Could it be that she never actually watched it? Stay tuned to find out!
San Francisco's Shadow: Someone refused to watch 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes' because it 'doesn't represent San Francisco in a good light.' But, isn't that the point of a movie set in a specific location?

Ship Steaming with Hooves: A friend despised 'Madagascar' because you can't steer a ship with hooves. But, isn't that the whole point of the movie? A zoo full of animals on a ship!
Meryl Streep's Misstep: My grandmother swore off any movie with Meryl Streep because of her character in 'Kramer vs. Kramer.' But, isn't Streep a legendary actress worth watching?
Oompa Loompa Knees: My friend hates the original 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' because the Oompa Loompas' knees weird him out. But, isn't that just a personal preference?
Irish Vampires in America: And finally, someone criticized 'Sinners' because an Irish vampire got to America in the 1930s. But, isn't that the magic of fiction? Let your imagination run wild!
