So much of the streamed content that we had zero hesitation unsubscribing from all of them, a few years ago. So far, we don't feel like we're missing out on much as the little quality productions that somehow escape the global neutering that is going on over there, well if we can't get them on disc or elsewhere... too bad but there are still countless amazing productions available on discs it's not like we're short content-wise ;)

Cowboy Bebop. Not even the Netflix adaptation (which I haven't seen), but the original. I got told by so many people that it was the best anime series ever, but I just couldn't connect with it.
I'd maybe say it's because I prefer more optimistic stories, but then I started reading Warhammer 40k books last year, so maybe I just have trash tastes.
I agree.
I don't hate it, it wasn't bad. It just didn't wow me to live up to the hype

Oh, most of them.
invincible season 2-4, the animations are pretty subpart compared to the first one. part of the blame is hiring expensive celebrities to do VA, and letting ROP suck the budget out of the other shows.
I'll name one for those three categories:
- Albums: A Perfect Circle's Eat the Elephant, in 2018
- TV shows: Obi-wan Kenobi, in 2022
- Movies: Malignant, in 2021
Seconding the APC album. It had a few OK tracks, but the album as a whole was light-years behind 13th Step or Mer de Noms.
In a similar vein, I find the newest Tool album a bit disappointing too.
The Fifth Element.
I first heard about it in the late nineties or early noughties, and I wanted to see it ever since, because liked its aesthetics and science-fiction in general, but for whatever reason, I didn't end up seeing it until last year. But wow, what a terrible film.

Oppenheimer. Nolan movies are my favorites, but that was boring as fuck.
Jujutsu Kaisen.
Shittiest piece of shit to ever shit on my shitty tv.

The sabotage is done by design, even good ones get ruined so that the novel one gets attention and gets sold else people watch stuff on repeat which makes less money and less reasons for industry to produce and sell content.
