What have you not liked that everyone else has?

[zestfive]

There's a couple of things that I know lots of folks have liked that I just didn't care for. Two things specifically are the movie "You've got Mail" and the two books I've read by Anne Lamott, "Blue Shoe" and "Operating Instructions: A Journal of My Son's First Year ".

I want to know what you haven't liked and why....

I don't like Donnie Darko, I don't get the hype.

I didn't like Blue Shoe, either. I won't read another Anne Lamott.

I didn't like House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski, either, which a lot of people rave about.

U2

I can NOT believe how many people love U2... year after year after year. Okay, The Joshua Tree was very well received and I have to admit I don't own it, but have heard most of the cuts... but they just keep going and going ... and in my mind, it all sounds the same. Plus, I rather my pop icons are less political *unless they're Springsteen...hehehe*

So that's mine. Everyone loves U2, cept me and my Girl.. So that's one thing we've got...

gosh, I haven't even seen it! Of course, I don't see many films...

Yeah, Anne Lamott just comes off as too neurotic for me.

I'd have to agree with you there. I did like their song "Sunday, Bloody Sunday" but that's probably it, granted I've not really listened to many deep tracks.
