It's just a genre with which I've never been captivated. In fact, I really only find it enjoyable when I watch with someone else. Most of the time, this comes from the strange pacing of those shows, including the weird pauses between lines. Oftentimes, it's as if characters are incapable of changing a facial expression while also talking. One, then the other. In any event, this design seems like a militant child, something that I would likely not like by-and-large. Children belong to the Milford Academy. Lolo_Guru posted... Oscar the Grouch (Sesame Street) Oscar the Grouch (Sesame Street) As a child, I didn't watch Sesame Street, but I don't think that's a negative. I personally preferred to read whenever I could and only developed an unhealthy fixation with television in late high school. With that said, it is probably understandable that I don't experience the pangs of nostalgia that would color the lenses of my critical glasses. I can see why a child might enjoy Oscar the Grouch, and I respect what Oscar the Grouch can be used for in the teaching of young people, but I also one-note characters - especially overly negative ones. And I don't like puppets. Rating: 18/100 MetalmindStats posted... John Wick John Wick (John Wick) It's fair to say that John Wick is not some sort of literary icon, bursting with hidden complexities, but as an action hero, you cannot go wrong. The motivation is intimate and impactful, something everyone can understand and sympathize with, if not empathize. His unbridled rage is channeled in cold, calculating brutality, pinpointing his targets of anger carefully. A vigilante he is not, but his tactics are not villainous. They are heroic in a world of hopelessness and devoid of real morality. This makes John Wick a hero. What makes him a great character is the length directors can go to give him artistic flair, to bedeck him in the trappings of the beauty of violence presented in just the right way, and that makes me a fan.
