So, I haven't caught up on the drama, but just read on the #paytheboob thread the unpop opinion thread was nuked. This was a great thread and deserves to live on with no politics (guessing that was the issue).
First post, I really like to want to like Deadpool, but the the drop target bank on the low right part of the playfield is messing it up for me.
Quoted from truemagoo102:Thank you RyanStl for resurrecting the thread. I tried to steer the original one back on course a handful of times but eventually the MAGA force was too strong. Most underrated pinball ever is actually a three way tie between Lights Camera Action, Road Kings and Vector.
We needed it, but for f'ng sake why use triggering political terms in your praise? It took two sides for that thread to enter no man's land. Let's move on y'all.
Quoted from porkcarrot:Yes, but that doesn’t mean we can’t comment on ridiculous opinions.
I don't normally give a shit about downvotes. Comment away, but it's not cool to downvote an unpopular opinion. Kind of the point of being unpopular. (not saying you downvoted, btw).
This unpop opinion could go either way depending on the audiance. I just read War and Peace and it sucked donkey balls. Now, I'm watching the BBC 6 episode mini-series and it sucks donkey balls. Why do people that pride themselves on liking books love this so much? The audio book is F'ng 61 hours of boredom.
Quoted from Foxxstone_80:I travel for work and listen to a lot of audio books. I Just started listening to the first book in Stephen kings the dark tower series. I absolutely hate it. I forced myself to listen to over half the book hoping it would grow on me..... it didn't. I can't stand the writing style/narration/and the way the characters talk. I know it's supposed to be Stephen kings favorite book series he wrote but it's awful. And they're like 8 more books in the series, no thanks. I enjoy most other Stephen king books I've read/listened to but there is no way I could suffer through this book, if I was reading it I probably would've stopped in the first chapter.
The Dark Tower is my favorite fantasy series (the movie was shite). Even though the first book of the series is not the best one in the group because a couple main characters haven't been met. However, if you can get past Roland and the way he talks, you'll not like the rest. I would cut it loose. Based on what you are saying you would probably hate Lisey's Story as well by SK. Can I hear "bad gunky".
Quoted from trecemaneras:Jane Austen > Leo Tolstoy
I read Pride and Prejudice a couple books before War and Peace, and while I agree it was better than W&P, it wasn't for me either. Basically what it had going for it over W&P was it was a lot shorter. I'm really getting into Steinbeck right now. I'm finished the Grapes of Wrath and about half way through East of Eden. Great books.
Quoted from trecemaneras:It reads like he wrote the first book in college and then came back 20 years later at the height of his career and started writing the rest.
Are you serious? You nailed it because that's almost exactly what happened. He did rework the original Gunslinger some.
Quoted from DarthPaul:What does an orangutan have to do with anything?
Oh shite. Just Google it and hopefully nobody here answers.
Quoted from Vino:Same but didn’t realize that opinion was unpopular.
She looked pretty good getting out of hibernation in Alien. Beyond that, I agree. I don't know why people think Jamie Lee Curtis is attractive. Too each their own.
Quoted from TheLaw:Rogue one is the most overated SW movie. Force groupie & Forrest Whitaker alone make it a comedy.
Dir me 8 & 9 are fucking horrible, but still better than 1-3. 7 is tight
Agree, 7 was great. and the rest you list sucked ass.
Ok, here's my unpop opinion. If everyone hates E1 so bad and shit on P2K, why are they over $4K on the market?
Quoted from TheLaw:That's a question not an opinion. But the answer is always the same; Theme Whores. Newbs & SW fans always gotta try a SWe1.
Same reason Freddy sells for over $1100.
You are right. My opinon is it shouldn't be over $4K based on what I read about it, but only because I would love to have one cheap. I suppose that's the most popular opinion about any pin. I fail 
SPOILER ALERT
I didn't think Prey was a very good movie, but the wife liked it. I thought the main character going from not great hunter to being the one to save the day was a huge stretch. Give me Arnie any day. Also, the CG animals were bad and I preferred the OG inivisible Predator effects. I think the screenplay needed a lot more work before production.
Quoted from JohnnyPinball007:While frequent diarrhea is no fun at all, it is actually a whole lot better than being constipated.
(I am having some issues with my diverticulitis at the moment, and it is not fun).
I don't know if that's unpopular or not, but isn't it easier to make things move than to stop it up. This reminds me. I have an embarissing confessiong to make in that thread reagarding this.
Quoted from ralphs007:The thread was nuked because a little Nancy didn't understand the purpose of the thread. They were offended and didn't like someone else's opion, so they had their little hissing fit and caused a thread melt down .
It'll happen again here until people realize it's supposed to be something unpopular being posted ! If you don't like something no need to reply,just shut your pie hole and move on .
Maybe disabling comments for this thread would be a good idea ?
I hear you brother, but don't join the conversation when it goes that way. Be the bigger Man.
I've been watching each Bond movie in order and I'm now on Live and Let Die. I have determined I only like the ones where there is crazy technology shit, especially if space is involed. The others so far aren't that great. I mean, I guess if you really like skiing On Her Majesty's Secret Serive might be good.
Also, up to this point the Aston Martin DB5 has only been in two movies. I thought it was a staple and pretty universal. The only conististant thing is Ford MoCo appears to have a deal with the producers.
Quoted from PoMC:I don't think those metal Precision flippers are worth all the loud hype. I have a few sets and spent a lot of time cutting down return springs to reduce the flutter bounce back of the new flippers.
I have been following that thread since the beginning. Now if you miss a week you're behind three pages. People are liking them for sure. I'll pass though because I don't have a game that needs to be blinged out. They look so good though.
Quoted from JakeFAttie:technology in pinball should serve gameplay. Toys and fancy DMDs and Video screens that interrupt gameplay flow are tedious gimmicks for overgrown children that quickly get old, break easily, and mostly serve to increase profits for manufacturers. Real men play pro.
This is probably closer to popular than unpoplular opinion.
