10 Unpopular Fandom Opinions (actually, I have 20)

[estepheia]

1. The Evil Troika were the best villains ever.
2. Nothing against Tara, but I'm still not buying Willow/Tara. I can see Tara as flavor-of-the-month, with Willow feeling rebellious and experimental, but ultimately I think she belongs with either Xander or Giles. Probably Giles, because frankly, Xander isn't playing in the same league.
3. Neither Spike nor William is particularly bright. (You don't need a high IQ to write godawful poetry)
4. I could live with Fred/Angel.
5. Gunn should grab Gwen and waltz off into the sunset, and they could return for 2 guest appearances per season.
6. Lorne should die a brutal death. It would be shocking, everybody would be geared up to kick the killer's ass, and we'd no longer have scenes with him that are over before you blink. Plus the writers don't know what to do with him. He's also outlived his usefulness as a living metaphor of gayness since everybody else is so gay. Boring. They used his only interesting flaw already (i.e. his distate of violence that borders on cowardice) and dealt with it ptetty conclusively (the Vegas epi), leaving little room for a continuing struggle. He has no real conflicts to deal with. Hence he's boring as hell. Plus, get the poor man out of his green make up. They can always hire Andy in a different capacity.
7. Buffy should end up with Xander because they have a matching set of values and both are pretty dumb. And I'm sure after Anya Xander is kinky enough for her. Perfect match (unless of course Xander decides he wants Spike, that would be even better.)
8. AtS desperately needs a kick-ass chick.
9. The trigger that enabled Spike to kill in S7 should have been a property of his chip. FE had access to Prof. Walsh's memories and could have exploited it, but it should have been removed when the chip was.
10. I liked the Initiative storyline and Riley, but it would have been better if the actress who played Prof. Walsh hadn't suddenly left the show.

And because it's so much fun: here are ten more, that are about other fandoms

1. Bound is way better than The Matrix.
2. The Two Towers sucked.
3. Harry Potter? Everything that came after the first book? Yawn.
4. Not every Johnny Depp movie is a cineastic revelation.
5. Daredevil rocked and Ben Affleck was brilliant (and I don't even like him).
6. The world doesn't need another Indiana Jones movie (but I'd watch one about Henry Jones in a heartbeat).
7. Not everything Tarantino touches turns to gold. Kill Bill could have been good, but isn't.
8. Jennifer whatshername in Alias? Can't act her way out of a paper bag. (But the guy who plays her dad makes up for it)
9. Firefly was better than both Buffy and Angel
10. Watching Farascape for an extended period of time makes me nauseous because of the horrible camera work.
