Unpopular Opinions V5: "I still don't like Half Life 2." - General

When I hear the song Adele-Hello. It feels like I'm trying to detach my ears from my head so I can stop hearing it.

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;49512497]Every country has the government it deserves.[/QUOTE] my current government didn't even win the elections [editline]12th January 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Sobotnik;49512601]they spend more time fighting amongst themselves than actually replacing the government..[/QUOTE] Or maybe there just isn't anything we can do?? You can't just make up a revolution and have major changes every time a government does something you don't approve of

It's better for Half-Life 3 to simply not happen than for it to be toppled down by 10+ years of built up expectations.

[QUOTE=Sobotnik;49514880]By the same token I believe the Swiss, Canadians, and Lithuanians have the governments they deserve. Most dictatorships are shit to live under, but dictators don't appear out of a vacuum, and neither does their support dissipate suddenly. I mean as late as the 1960s there were a lot of Germans who thought Hitler was good, today you have a lot of Spanish people pining for the days of Franco. In the future (depending on what happens) you will have people who miss assad in spite of the fact he has murdered innocent people. Hitler himself was literally brought into power through the ballot box and nobody made an attempt to prevent him from dismantling democracy.[/QUOTE] Obviously, I mean, why don't people just tell the government no? It's not like the government is allowed to shoot them or anything! Plus, if the people in Pyongyang (who are all the rich, upper-echelon families in the highest class in North Korea's extremely rigid caste system) said they like Kim Jong-Un in a documentary I watched once on Netflix, then obviously EVERYBODY must love Kim Jong-Un, especially the millions who are worked to death and treated as sub-human in North Korea's "total control zone". Those guys [I]really[/I] deserve what they're getting. Is "people who think the above are scum" an unpopular opinion?

Golden Compass (book) is mediocre

I like Nutella more than peanut butter

[QUOTE=flashn00b;49515900]It's better for Half-Life 3 to simply not happen than for it to be toppled down by 10+ years of built up expectations.[/QUOTE] But think about how the 3 jokes will finally end

American politics would be hilarious if America wasn't an internationally important superpower because American politics are a ridiculous circus.

[QUOTE=flashn00b;49515900]It's better for Half-Life 3 to simply not happen than for it to be toppled down by 10+ years of built up expectations.[/QUOTE] Maybe after the initial disappointment that it isnt what people told themselves it'll be they'll realise it's still good. That or it really does suck idk

[QUOTE=Recurracy;49517042]Maybe after the initial disappointment that it isnt what people told themselves it'll be they'll realise it's still good. That or it really does suck idk[/QUOTE] Way I see it, the only way HL3 can meet these expectations is if the following happened: -United States government funds the game -Valve hires Japanese scientists and Swedish grad students to help with the game -Boss battles are developed by interns from PlatinumGames -Sountrack celebrates gaming as a whole, featuring artists such as Junichi Nakatsuru (SoulCalibur, Ace Combat), Nobuo Uematsu (Final Fantasy), Michael McCann (Deus Ex, XCOM), I could write a whole friggin' list. Point is, HL3's soundtrack will have to put Super Smash Bros Brawl's to shame.

Deadpool is not funny

[QUOTE=Sector 7;49517511]Deadpool is not funny[/QUOTE] theres like 2 versions of deadpool, one thats actually funny and one thats essentially "LOL randumb xD"

[QUOTE=XiP;49516492]I like Nutella more than peanut butter[/QUOTE] since when is this unpopular?

[QUOTE=Sector 7;49517511]Deadpool is not funny[/QUOTE] i like deadpool but the movie looks like shit

[QUOTE=Pigbear;49517670]since when is this unpopular?[/QUOTE] A lot of people don't seem to like Nutella.

[QUOTE=ThatSwordGuy;49516570]But think about how the 3 jokes will finally end[/QUOTE] Things can (and will) be replaced.

[QUOTE=Katra804;49517868]A lot of people don't seem to like Nutella.[/QUOTE] everyone i know but me likes it

[QUOTE=Bathtub;49517603]theres like 2 versions of deadpool, one thats actually funny and one thats essentially "LOL randumb xD"[/QUOTE] There's also the super serious edgy version Speaking of which, I can't bring myself to hate Rob Liefeld, he's too adorable for me to hate.

[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;49517796]i like deadpool but the movie looks like shit[/QUOTE] this poster will probably be the best thing to come out of the movie [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/90fDoYI.jpg[/IMG]

Speaking of superhero movies being bad, I actually liked antman even though it was the most retarded plot.

[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;49517796]i like deadpool but the movie looks like shit[/QUOTE] Do you like Deadpool, as in you read the comics? Or do you mean you like the Deadpool thats popular on the internet?

[QUOTE=Mister Sandman;49513822]STRAIGHT EDGE MEANS I'M DRUG FREE, ALCOHOL FREE, AND [I]BETTER THAN YOU![/I] (I don't like the drugs and alcohol)[/QUOTE] Everyone's quit until someone offers them a cigarette.

[QUOTE=Cone;49518468]this poster will probably be the best thing to come out of the movie [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/90fDoYI.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] to the point where i'm shocked something this brilliant came out of a project that seems so basic could just be a case of very badly cut trailers but i'm not holding my breath

[QUOTE=Pigbear;49518210]everyone i know but me likes it[/QUOTE] I'm not too keen on it myself, honestly. It's okay, but it's not something I'd spend money on regularly. I bought a small container of it a few months back, and I actually find it a bit too sweet for my liking.

nutella is one of the worst toast toppings imo if I wanted to eat cake frosting for breakfast, I would just do that.

[QUOTE=Killer monkey;49518695]Do you like Deadpool, as in you read the comics? Or do you mean you like the Deadpool thats popular on the internet?[/QUOTE] read a few runs of his comics. most of it waypool, i think? honestly don't remember, but i enjoyed it, even the worse ones. the movie doesn't quite capture the same feel from what i've seen, though. half the fun of deadpool is laughing at him, not with him [QUOTE=Crimor;49518648]Speaking of superhero movies being bad, I actually liked antman even though it was the most retarded plot.[/QUOTE] i wouldn't call it retarded, though? it was simple and straightforward but used everything very cleverly. unless you're talking about the premise itself, though it helps to think of ants as nothing but pheromone controlled machines, plus they gave a nice little 'sciency' explanation for the shrinking (something about reducing the distance between atoms?)

[QUOTE=Sector 7;49518849]nutella is one of the worst toast toppings imo if I wanted to eat cake frosting for breakfast, I would just do that.[/QUOTE] Do people put it on toast? That's weird. I don't like sugary things on toast. I put Nutella on crepes though

[QUOTE=Crimor;49519775]The plot had more holes than it had substance :v:[/QUOTE] like what though?

Havolis is cool
