Which movie/person do you think has the most annoying fans? - General Discussion Discussion

[–] CheekyMonkey (584) 5 years ago

Tarantino's fans are definitely annoying... George Lucas' fans are up there as well, but primarily for their zealotry and the sheer volume of reeeeing online that crowds out any discussion...

In terms of movies Alien/Aliens fandom can be a bit vocal, but they're not really annoying... You can have an interestind discussion... I've had many in relation to Alien 3 and Prometheus in particular... especially as different directors took a shot at redefining the series from Cameron to Fincher to Scott's several attempts... The same thing can be said for BladeRunner...

The superhero fandoms in general are pretty intolerable... But they're a bit dispersed across so many movies and tend not to spillover too much in other movie discussions...

I recall Star Wars fans starting a go fund me page to get enough money to finance remaking The Last Jedi. So much entitlement.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned Rick and Morty.

I heard of the show. Don't know how bad the fans are.

I hate her fans. I've been in many online fights with them. All I'm saying is that you can't call her a great songwriter when she's never written an entire song by herself.

Agreed. Can’t be critiqued or criticized. LeBron fans can be diehard too.

Donald Trump

Apologies for dragging politics over here, but he was a tv personality first and his cult fan base started there.

I think every politician has that. It's always "the left does this, the right does that." It's annoying.

[–] Who (5146) 5 years ago

Yes, the Bernie Bros were annoying too but not as obnoxious as maga

[–] samoanjoes (56726) 5 years ago

Even Hillary supporters who thought that voting against her was because of sexism. This is why I don't identify with any political party.

A Clockwork Orange (actually you can say pretty much any Kubrick film, a lot of pretentious dorks like them...)
The Daniel Craig bond films (when people act like just cause he doesnt smile, raise an eyebrow or make any puns that means he's the most amazingly deep actor who ever lived or something and all his films are the new Shakespeare)
Fight Club
Wolf of Wall Street (ugh)

I'm a fan of all of those that you mentioned but I'm completely okay with anyone attacking those films.

I also hate "Troll 2" fans twofold, because 1) Troll 2 is NOT "so bad it's good" it just sucks, and 2) I am a genuine fan of "Troll" (1986) the movie whose name gets unfairly besmirched and forgotten.

reply

[–] samoanjoes (56726) 5 years ago

To be fair, Troll 2 had a budget of $30.

reply

[–] NYJetsFan (148) 5 years ago

Troll probably didn't have any bigger budget. If so, only by minimal amounts. It also had the original Harry Potter character well before the books. It also has Sonny Bono, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, June Lockhart, and a talking penis, er, I mean mushroom. Troll is a great movie that didn't deserve to get saddled with the reputation of it's sequel that isn't even a sequel.

Did I just become one of those annoying fans? whoops, my bad... :(

What about P.T. Anderson fanboys? Even a positive criticism about any of them and they act like you're ignorant and stupid.

In music, Radiohead fans are like that. Perhaps not coincidentally, there seems to be a huge overlap between fans of Radiohead's music and P.T. Anderson movies.
