What genres just bore you? (romance, documentaries, watch, The Godfather)

Ugh, I think I only saw a couple minutes of that one that had to turn on something else.

I'm not bored by any one particular genre. It's really a movie-by-movie basis for me. I'm not particularly fond of westerns, but I love Young Guns, Geronimo, Tombstone and Desperado. I'm not a huge fan of Sci-Fi, but I love the Matrix and the Chronicles of Riddick. I'm not really into horror flics, but I like the more "psychological" horror flics like the Talented Mr. Ripley.

No GENRES bore me. It all has to do with the film. For instance, I'm not much interested in Westerns, but I love My Darling Clementine.

If you don't like war movies, nor relationship movies, nor political movies, you're certainly limiting yourself.

May I ask if you're very young? Because you made a curious objection to conversation - twice.

You didn't like it? Loved that movie!

But Jim can go a bit too far.

I enjoy a good conversation, but conversations about the business side of crime, like a lot of old gangster movies, bore me. Often most of that dialogue goes over my head, I just like a very simple plot, drama and action.

I mean I could find exceptions to about all those genres I mentioned - it's not like I say 'I won't watch anything of this genre.' I consider movies for their individual merits but I've just found most of the movies in those genres uninteresting.

Anything with Oprah Winfrey, Mathew McCounghauey, Ben Aflek, Leonardo DiCraprio--I know those aren't genre's but that's what I avoid. Crap like that.

I get easily bored with chick flicks and sci-fi. Ah! and shows for teenagers. Of course it's a generalization. Examples ->

I totally agree.

haha I add all these to my list.

Watching Golf, Politics or Religion related shows on TV is as boring/painful as it can get for me.

But this is about movie genres.

Oh, in that case, musicals (Grease and Little Shop of Horrors being the exceptions).
