More targeted at films than TV really. (everyone hates bing)..

I've just had to watch through the Good Dinosaur..
I don't think any of us enjoyed it 😕

Two toddlers obsessed with PJ masks at the moment. WtF is that all about. Can't get the theme tune out of our heads either. Everyone is constantly singing it.

I love the good dinosaur. When I was pregnant with dd me and dh went to Disney on ice and then went to see good dinosaur at the cinema and I cried.

Peppa effing Pig

Sexyfothermucker · 11/07/2018 20:14

The Shawn the sheep movie a few years ago. Over an hour of my life I will never get back. One of those films that you wish would just hurry up and finish but it just seemed to go on and on and on..........
Ds loved it though Smile

Buggeredpelvicfloor2013 · 11/07/2018 20:37

Blippi. You could not pay me enough. Also, whatever the shit is that my DD watches that goes 'welcome to Charlie's crafty kitchen where you can eat what you make' and results in DD wanting a homemade fucking Frozen Elsa cake there and then.

MrsChollySawcutt · 11/07/2018 20:40

The Moshi Monsters Movie. Just the most god awful thing I have ever had the misfortune to be subjected to.

At the time DS has a habit of saying he needed the toilet when bored. I think all those toilet trips that afternoon were the only times I really pleased to have the excuse to leave the screen and take him to the loo. Sadly DD was gripped and we had to stay to the bitter end.

Jamiefraserskilt · 11/07/2018 21:11

Charlie and his creepy, weird, sinister bloody chocolate factory. Loved the book but Depp just comes over as psychotic.
Walking Dead, why, just why?
The Purge. Ditto every hunger games
Chitty chitty bang bang ... squeaky precocious kids that I want to leave in a field with the childcatcher (who still freaks me out)
The wiggles and Barney. Both should be banned

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 11/07/2018 21:53

Oh god Hyancith! NOT SUITE LIFE! Angry

All of those awful American kids shows

ICarly
Sam and Cat
Suite Life
Victorious
Wizards Of
Hannah Montana
Good Luck Charlie

They all have the exact same dialogue patterns and joke style

AND THEY CAN ALL GET IN THE FUCKING SEA Angry

The cbeebies hey duggee world cup kick song 🙄. My ds is 10, he's supposed to have outgrown these things!

wanderings · 11/07/2018 22:02

Here's an obscure one: the New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking. One family member (then a teenager!) was obsessed with it, and watched it again and again. He went through a phase of recording and watching certain films rated "poor" by the Radio Times, out of curiosity, he said.

HoardingQueen · 11/07/2018 22:03

WWE in Manchester arena...and I stumped up stupid money for the tickets, what a load of contrived crap!

lardass88 · 11/07/2018 22:06

Pee-wee fucking Herman 😡

AnastasiaVonBeaverhausen · 11/07/2018 22:06

The Emoji Movie. I really earned my mothering stripes for that one.

And Bing. Miserable cunt.

lucydogz · 11/07/2018 22:08

Drop Dead Fred and, last Saturday, Rocky. Aparently it got 2 Oscars. How?

Maranello4 · 11/07/2018 22:25

Welcomes to Ryan's Toys Review. A LOT
A man on You Tube naming his entire collection of Thomas The Tank Engine trains.
You Tube videos of fork lift trucks loading and unloading stuff....

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 11/07/2018 22:27

Pokemon or Minecraft videos. I've just watched 2 episodes of Pokemon Glazed. Shoot me. 😭

Oliversmumsarmy · 11/07/2018 22:27

Not my own DC (I introduced them early to action movies) but friends DD chose for us all to go to see Coraline 3D.

It was the most rubbish thing I have ever seen.

Only to be out done a few years later by Hugo.

Friend said she tended to go to sleep as soon as she settled in to her seat at the cinema.

My DC joke with her about her taste in movies and she jokes with them about their favourite films

Although High School Musical was played on a loop on DVD and on CD in the car for several months.

DD only realised recently that the lyrics were a little risque

Petalflowers · 11/07/2018 22:36

I found Cars and Wall-e fairly boring.

Fortunately missed Peppa Pig.

daughterofanarchy · 11/07/2018 22:40

Not a film but Ryan’s bastard toy review on YouTube! Sorry for the language but it really made me want to throw the iPad out of the window.

FarFlungFairy · 11/07/2018 22:43

Clay kids, I think it’s on Kix channel. Most boring fucking thing I’ve ever seen.

NellMangel · 11/07/2018 22:45

maranello aaargh Ryan's toy review. And CKN Toys. They have garages full of electric ride on vehicles and every imaginable toy. Crazy.

I'm often forced to watch another Youtuber called Blippi but I mind that less think he's quite attractive

RhubarbRhubarbRhubarbRhubarb · 11/07/2018 22:45

I hated the good dinosaur. Dd sort of liked it, but I think if she watched it now it might scare her tbh. I think it got a lot of criticism when it came out.

WhiteVixen · 11/07/2018 22:46

The Peter Rabbit movie.

Somertime · 11/07/2018 22:47

Two hours of pictures of trains and an annoying soundtrack on YouTube. FFS!
Youtube has a lot of answer for.
