Re: Popular (book, movie, etc) that you simply don\'t like.
Cosign 100% on The Doors and Harry Potter. I find the Doors incredibly boring and trashy and overrated. A cheesy LA band that sounds like a parody of itself, tries to sound deep and fails miserably, etc. There was some real talent in that group too, which kind of obscures how little substance they actually had.
Here's one that I simply can't defend, but it's true nonetheless: I just don't really like the Beatles. It's not that I dislike them, and there are a few songs that I enjoy tremendously, but I can't remember the last time I put on a Beatles album. It just doesn't get me off, and I listen to a lot of music from the 50s, 60s and 70s, so it's not a generational thing.
