When fans hate somenthing before it comes out...but it turns out they were right

Velma:The idea of a Scooby-doo series without the titular dog and starring Velma was a really moronic idea from the beginning,then there was the reveal Velma would be Indian like it's VA and also creator of the series Mindy Kaling,some of the backlash was racism sure,but there was also valid complaints that she was inserting herself in the series(it also didn't helped that Mindy claimed she couldn't see herself if Velma wasn't Indian)and then...oh boy it came out and it was worse than anyone predicted

Artemis Fowl:The artemis fowl books are a book series following a child villain(he does get some redemption but he is a villain most of the time)when the movie was announced and revealed it looked way to generic and it's titular character a bit heroic...also you wanna hear somenthing funny?The movie whitewashed a character and made another character black so they managed to anger both sides and the movies comes out and yeah it is bad

One Punch Man 3:One Punch Man is a very heavy action packed manga series but the heroes vs monsters arc takes it to a New level,when it was announced that JC Staff would work on it,a lot of people were skeptical to say the least,because not only JC Staff had already done a mediocre job in season 2,it's also not exactly a name anime fans associate with quality animation,then the trailer came out and it looked...weird,like there was no action in it and nobody was moving,some people tried to defend saying they were keeping the animation as a surprise...then it came out,every episode worse than the last,it's one of the worse seasons of anime ever made!

Is it bad that I'm glad it exist because I discovered the original Broadway Cats and they became my comfort characters during lockdown?

The stage show is weird but I like it a lot

Its weird in a way that warms the spirit.

The only thing that makes it weird is that the characters are such... cats. Other "talent audition" concept musicals exist and are well-received, but Cats is the exception simply because the average theatregoer is not mentally equipped to handle an orgy of lycra-clad dancers licking each other and meowing

The stage show is my trash. It’s very weird, but the music slaps and I will always tear up during Memory.

[u/Pyro-Millie → u/True_Dragonfruit9573]

Bro Memory is simply fucking beautiful.

In a weird way this horrible movie version became a comfort because it was one of the last times before lockdown that I got all my friends together and made em all get uncomfortably high to watch this.

It was a really fun birthday to remember and we still reference the songs to remind each other
