Popular series you tried but couldn't get into

I've heard of a lot of people that stopped watching it around then, so maybe season three is worse, which just makes me even less keen to even give it another try.

Literally nothing of note happens in the second season from I think the second episode onward. I already got some of the events spoiled for me (by myself, because I wanted to see if the story was going anywhere), so at that point I just felt like there was no need to pick it back up. And then I read that one of the characters I liked most at that point had died as well, so any slight incentive I had to start watching again was taken away.

My friends talk about it in school all the time (only really when it's airing, though), and whilst I'm sad that I can't talk about it with them, I just don't care about the show enough to give it a second chance as well. It's a shame though, because I thought the first season was great.

Season 2 held my interest because I was really wondering what happened to Sophia. And they milked that like crazy for how long it took before you finally find out what happens:

Spoiler:

She becomes a zombie also and she was being kept in the barn the entire time. I know, so anticlimatic.

I also wanted to know if certain characters survived. The Walking Dead killed off a lot of characters I liked, making it feel a lot like zombie Game of Thrones as far as that goes.

Season 3 really is even less eventful than Season 2. The main characters spend pretty much the whole season in a prison, of all places. And I guess at Season 4, I kind of hit my limit. The only characters remaining were ones I didn't care too much about and the overall storyline was being dragged out way too slowly to hold my interest over.

I won't deny that I did like it for a while. Season 1 was obviously the best and they kept it moving at a steady pace, but after that, it just got filler junk dumped all over it. Maybe sometime I'll go back to it, but I don't know.

I'm not much of a TV show person, but I just could not get into the Jason Bourne movies. I don't know why, because I love James Bond but Jason Bourne just could not hold my interest.

I have also been trying to get into Attack on Titan, and I've watched the first episode, but I find myself procrastinating watching the next episode, so I suspect I may not be into it but I'm still going to give it a chance.

Jason Bourne movies are VERY complex and use a lot of crazy lingo and junk like that, and I had to watch the series several times to be able to understand just what pray tell was really going on. Once you figure out what's happening, it's actually very interesting, but yeah, it's not something that's easily going to make sense right from the start.

I've only watched the first three movies so far though (Identity, Supremacy, and Ultimatum). Most James Bond movies are pretty straightforward and don't require too much knowledge of previous movies to be able to understand what's going on. Jason Bourne ones, however, are all over the place and it's a bit of a puzzle to piece together, but once you start connecting the dots, things start to make sense.

See, I understand what's going on so it's not that. I'm just not into it for some reason. I've seen the first two Jason Bourne movies but I just could not get into it. I don't know, I've probably watched too much cinema sins because the whole first moving I was just sinning it in my head.

That's totally fine.

I like these movies for the fact that the action is pretty intense, feels realistic without any gimmicks like exploding pens or laser watches, and the way Jason Bourne improvises solutions and tries to evade escape (most of the time) are pretty nifty. The car chases are especially action-packed and every Jason Bourne movie has at least one put into them. There are parts that do feel a little unrealistic and wouldn't happen in real life, but for the most part, it does seem pretty believable. I think the writers deserve a lot of the credit for these movies.

I won't deny that there are parts with a LOT of useless filler that are not at all interesting to watch and don't contribute to the storyline. I understand they might be for character background, but weighing the time it takes against how important it is just makes it feel like it isn't really worth it.

I'm one of those cheesy people that loves cliche gadgets so that might be part of the problem. XD

I mean I've also always been more for an emphasis on action with romance on the side but it always felt so... rushed with Jason Bourne. I mean it does with James Bond too but by like the third movie I was numb to it. Though some of the scenes were really funny, most of it just felt boring to me.

Hey, cliche gadgets are fine too, there's a time and place for them. :3 I actually don't care very much for romance parts, and I know the Bourne movies are very touch and go with those, like you said.

Call me crazy, but I like some of the more recent James Bond movies (not the ones with Daniel Craig, I just don't think he portrays James Bond all that well) over the older, "classic" James Bond movies that had filler conversations that basically sedated me. I know they really amped up the action scenes, shootouts, car chases, explosions, and all that jazz in recent times and I like that. Stuff like Goldeneye, Tomorrow Never Dies, and The World is Not Enough is more of the stuff I like.

Cliche gadgets are the best man! I love them because it's just like oh you think this is lip stick WRONG IT'S A FREAKING LASER.

Yeah the new ones are much better in my opinion. Personally Quantum of Solace is my favorite but they're all really good. Tomorrow Never Dies is a very close second though.
