Example: It might sound like an unpopular opinion, but movies make me uncomfortable. The Incredibles is a film everyone loves that I don’t despite the massive success and praise.
The Amazing World of Gumball is a series I despise too, but I think we can all agree on that.

Mr Bean. The vicarious shame just kills me.
Anything with vicarious shame for me.
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
She’s just always in a state of implosion and looks like she’s going to fuck everything up on stage. It’s the most anxiety inducing thing I’ve ever watched.
Can’t stand anything Tarantino.
Just reading the description of Poor Things was a huge turn off.
“It focuses on Bella Baxter, a fetus in the body of an adult woman in Victorian London who is saved from her mother’s suicide via brain transplant and embarks on an odyssey of self-discovery.”
It gets worse from there.
Willy Wonka.
I hate the scene juxtaposition, everything feels like the whole filming process was struggling, the long drawn out portrait shots with weirdly sparkling eyes,… Idk. Even thinking about it makes me anxious
And grandpa Joe is the worst person ever playing a good guy in a kid’s movie.
I wasn’t really allowed to watch Disney movies growing up - at least we didn’t have any in the house - which I think continues to shape how I enjoy movies. And cartoons of any sort were pretty much a no go as well. I have gotten a bit more accustomed to animation in recent years, I used to find it impossible to watch, but I still find anything with lots of bright colours and movement a bit much. And I can’t stand musicals - they make no sense to me. I want to follow the story, not have to wade through a lot of singing and dancing to get there.
Amen.
The Never Ending Story always made me very uncomfortable. Also, anything with Muppets, except for Labyrinth (assuming those puppets count as Muppets).
I left the theater after Joker absolutely depressed and mentally uncomfortable. It felt less like a fiction and just struck a raw nerve. Similarly, American gothic literature strikes deep and leaves me feeling depressed and hollowed out.
Todd Solondz films. Omg. You think Happiness is bad but then you get hit with Palindromes.
I admire him for it though.
