The Worst Entertainment of 2022

[MCheetah]

This is just something I felt like doing. With so much CRAP out there, I felt it was needed to look back at some of the worst garbage put out there in 2022.

Yes, this was an actual plot beat in the show: Catcalling is worse than domestic abuse.

THE WORST SHOW OF 2022 (and possibly of all time):

She-Hulk: Attorney At Law (Disney+)

I'm not using hyperbole when I say Jessica Gao's She-Hulk: Attorney At Law is literally one of the worst TV shows I've ever watched in my life. Far worse than The Rings of Power or Netflix's Resident Evil, cause at least they don't spend the entire series insulting their audience and actually have endings!

It's so horrendously written, it seems like it was done on purpose. It's so unfunny, you never once think it's a comedy. And it's so bad at being a legal show, they don't even know the basics of how the US legal system or courtrooms work. They couldn't even be quarter-assed to hire a legal consultant on the show to tell them how!

Oh, and like everything else on this list, they viciously and maliciously attack their own audiences with woke harassment, name-calling, and bullying! Big surprise there. But the real thing is, how BAD the show is, while having the stones to insult their audience - and men in general - at the same time. You can't be this hyper-incompetent, while being openly misandrist and talking this much sh*t. It's insane.

That's why I said I wasn't exaggerating when I said this is literally the worst thing on television I've ever seen in my entire life. It combines The Last Jedi's cynical sh*t-talking and disdain for it's audience, with The Rise of Skywalker's hyper-incompetence and inability to do very basic storytelling or character development. Nothing is knocking this Everest-sized turd off it's throne anytime soon.

There was a no-budget fan-made She-Hulk web movie/mini-series made in 2008 by Garrett Gilchrist starring 6' tall amateur actress Kierstyn Elrod, called "Shamelessly She-Hulk" and despite its lack of any budget whatsoever, is literally better, funnier, and more honest than this Disney+ show in EVERY. SINGLE. WAY. It's even higher rated, with a 5.5 on IMDb, compared to She-Hulk: Attorney At Law's 4.9 rating. Just go watch that instead of this abomination on Disney+, even if it's still not quite "good."

Runner-up Selections:

- The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (Amazon Prime)

- Resident Evil (2022; Netflix)

- Fairview (Comedy Central)

- The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On (Netflix)

Yeah, cause the 95% of people in the world who are straight, wanna pay money to go see *this*...

THE WORST MOVIE OF 2022:

Bros (Universal Pictures)

This steaming pile of sh*t is basically a gay p*rn, marketed to general audiences, with a thin plot to it. No, I didn't watch it. However, I did watch YouTubers shredding it to bits while describing its story. This movie cost $22 million and shouldn't have cost more than $2 mil.

What makes this movie extra bad though, besides being gay p*rn they they put in normal movie theaters, is their clear and direct "heterophobia" and how much they attack straight people in the marketing for this sh*tfest, including in the actual trailer itself. This movie is so goddamn gay, and it has nothing to do with being homosexual.

Runner-up Selections:

- To The End (the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez documentary; the second one, actually)

- Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

- Strange World

- Pinocchio (2022)

- Halloween Ends

- The Bubble

- Firestarter

- 365 Days: This Day / The Next 365 Days

Woke Row!

THE WORST VIDEO GAME OF 2022:

Saints Row (2022 reboot; Volition/Deep Silver)

This game was first announced in August 2021 and had massive backlash, and a good 75-80% of the fan base hated the woke trailer and announcement. And what did their company, Volition, do? Mock the fans, of course! And call them all 'ista-phobes' while refusing to fix anything the fans hated about the trailer, story, or game content.

And maybe if the gameplay was good and not literally worse than it's 2008 predecessors, the story wasn't cringey woke trash, the game wasn't starring the least likeable protagonist and sidekicks in video game history, the game wasn't filled with game-breaking bugs and glitches that make it literally unplayable at times, the graphics weren't seven years outdated, the game had actual music tracks in it, and literally anything about the game wasn't beyond horrendous, then just maybe they could've gotten away with telling the fans of the old games to go eat sh*t. But I guess, we'll never know! Oh, and this festering turd was an Epic Games Store exclusive, meaning you can't legally play it on a computer without downloading this sh*tty storefront first.

I don't care what anyone says about Diablo Immortal; this game is *objectively* the worst game of 2022. Almost as bad as She-Hulk: Attorney at Law on the gaming end, but Volition didn't actually insult their fanbase as much for it to compete with She-Hulk.

Runner-up Selections:

- Diablo Immortal (Blizzard)

- Pokemon Scarlet and Violet (Game Freak)

- Gotham Knights (WB Games Montreal)

- CrossfireX (Smilegate)

- Babylon's Fall (Platinum Games, Square Enix)

This country song, You Proof, apparently is "bad."

The TRUE winner for "Worst Song of 2022," though.

THE WORST SONGS OF 2022:

Morgan Wallen, "You Proof" (Country)
L'il Pump, "Mona Lisa" featuring Soulja Boy (Mumble Rap/Trap)

Okay. To be honest, I haven't cared about mainstream music since Kendrick Lamar in 2013. And to be even more honest, I mostly don't care about mainstream music in general. Sure, I like Eminem, Jay-Z, and a few others. But I'm not much of a music person and you couldn't pay me to use Spotify. So I had to look this one up. The one that keeps coming up over and over again, on every list, is some song called "You Proof" by Morgan Wallen. Never even heard of this before. So... There ya go!

I don't like any country music at all, but for a country song, it doesn't sound that bad, and it doesn't have that many dislikes on YouTube, so who knows! Maybe it's only so hated for stupid, superficial, woke-based reasons or whatever. Or maybe it's extremely overplayed in certain markets; I dunno! But I don't think it's all that bad. Rather listen to this fifty times than Despacito again. 2017 was a long year due to that damn song.

After finding out all the other bad songs though, one is clear and above legitimately BAD though! Not simply a matter of taste, but just musical ass. The audio equivalent of a smelly elevator fart. L'il Pump's "Mona Lisa." Only reason I'm not putting it as THE Worst Song of 2022 is cause I already typed all this crap for the generic country song. But Mona Lisa is objectively far worse. It's legit dog-sh*t!

Oh, and by the way, I've never heard of these other songs mentioned either, but people who actually do like music, all say they're pretty bad, too. Especially 10 Things I Hate About You, and Emo Girl.

Runner-up Selections:

- Leah Kate, "10 Things I Hate About You"
(appears on every "Worst songs of 2022" list; I don't think it's that bad; just generic and like it's from the mid 2000s)

- Machine Gun Kelly, "Emo Girl" featuring Willow
(appears on every "Worst songs of 2022" list; this song isn't that bad, but it is some generic, wanna-be Simple Plan bullsh*t from 2005)

- Taylor Swift, "Anti-Hero"

- Drake & 21 Savage, "Her Loss"

- DJ Khaled, "Staying Alive"

- Drake, "Falling Back"

- Meghan Trainor, "Made You Look"

- Who ya' boi? - BONECRUSHER!

And that's all, folks! But here's a palate cleanser, for you! Listen, laugh, and enjoy! 😁

We seem to have a lot of bad writing in major productions in the last decades. You have to wonder why they have soo many incompetent fools working at the "top".

Writing a story use to be a well established pattern as led by the greats of our history. Do they not teach this stuff anymore? Do big companies like CBS, Disney, just choose to add crap to their shows?

[MCheetah]

It's all intentional to force propaganda down people's throats. Hollywood, the mainstream media news, and Washington: They're all the same entity now.

[LiamJHayden]

She-Hulk was less entertaining than watching the grass grow.

[LiamJHayden]

Music wise, the only new music I genuinely liked this year is actually some old music, a classical piano album by Paul Wee of Beethoven's 3rd and Mozart's Piano Concerto 20..

[ManOnFire]

Didn't see She Hawk but already knew it wasn't going to be good, and I'm not a Hulk fan anyway so...

But to add to your list:

Vesper - this movie was a complete disappointment, I'd been waiting for so long to see it and it was a let down. I don't know, Europeans but particularly Dutch and Scandinavian folk just have a different way of making movies that doesn't really work for me.

Andor - all I've really been doing for months is just waiting for The Mandalorian to come back but I did watch a few new Star Wars shows, Tales of the Jedi was really good, but Andor also didn't work for me. I think I watched the first 4 or 5 episodes before I just couldn't take it anymore. The story has no real value for me, not enough humor and wittiness like traditional Star Wars, and the story seemed to sit on parts for a long time.

Kenobi - in the beginning I was really hyped about seeing this after we waited years for a show to finally be done about one of our favorite Jedi, and when I watched it I was excited but looking back it wasn't that great. And again, it lacked the humor, life, and wittiness that Star Wars is known for.

For music:

That damn Victoria Secret song from some nobody named Jax. She tries to push your average bullshit feminist ideology and twist the narrative, making the song all about a guy who invented Victoria Secret, when it was in fact him and his wife together who did. But including his wife would take away from Jax's strategy of trying to put all the blame on a guy for why she feels insecure about trying to look skinny, when nobody told her to.

Tate McRae's "Uh Oh" only because she uses that same damn annoying sound in her voice to sing like the other female poppers like Halsey and Bebe Rexha, both of which I can't stand. That sound all these girls are using in their voices nowadays really irritates the shit out of me.

Latto's "Big Energy" irked me too. When she speaks she has an awesome voice that would be perfect for her own radio or TV show but in that song she just sounds kinda masculine like a female form of the now-defunct B. O. B.

-End rant-

Hey - almost any action show with a cute green girl is fine with me.

Even if they can't pick-up a car.

I tried watching she Hulk it was bad. There's never anything new on Disney plus that's any good. I watched guardians of the galaxy Christmas special which was OK. I find myself rewatching frozen so I can sing along. Lion King, I cry everytime simba's daddy dies. Beauty and the beast, cinderella. I might buy myself a Disney princess dress just because.

[Emiliamazing]

I really didn't see any of the movies you listed newer hear any of the music. How about a list that you like?

[MCheetah]

That wouldn't be enough to fill a MyTake.

Shows: None
Movies: Everywhere, Everything, All At Once.
Games: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge
Music: None

[Emiliamazing]

Any chance you'd give the Allergies (band, upbeat) a try? Might be too simple and happy for you, but it's fun and safe music for all our kids!

[exitseven]

I did watch She Hulk. I expected it to be terrible so my expectations were pretty low. Once I decided it was not supposed to be serious I did not hate it and actually watched the whole thing. Wandavision was unwatchable as was the Immortals. I tried to watch Loki because Owen Wilson was in it but had to give up on that too.

[MCheetah]

That doesn't excuse the in-your-wokeness and man-hating (not even accurate, either; no women face any of these so-called "problems), horrendously bad writing (like breaking the fourth wall to congratulate herself for having a B-plot; something ALL FICTIONAL SHOWS are supposed to have), lack of any humor whatsoever, and constant audience-bashing, to where there literally was no villain in the story except us, "the incel viewers of the MCU." The Avengers fight Thanos and She-Hulk fights "toxic fans." WTF...

She-Hulk is my favorite female superhero, and this show was such a massive middle finger to her. That is the ONLY reason I even endured this, to the end. And the worst part is, that final episode COULD have redeemed the entire show, if the writers took a giant sh*t on themselves, revealed they were incompetent, and the whole show was basically revealed to be one big giant troll to the audience, with the writers being self-aware of how bad it was and Jen/She-Hulk having to write her own show to fix it. They barely would've had to change much; just reveal how much they suck, and have She-Hulk fix her own show and retcon the entire previous episodes away. But instead, it was her LITERALLY complaining to the manager, and wiping away things she simply disliked (as well as forcing Daredevil to sleep with her without his consent.)

I'm a writer and I quite literally couldn't make something this bad, on purpose. I'd end up following too many rules or accidentally doing too many things correctly.

[MCheetah]

*in-your-face-wokeness

[exitseven]

I never read the comics so I really did not know much about She Hulk. She was not around when I read comic books I guess. However it was not supposed to be serious and yes, I get that it is a liberal love fest. It is kind of a shame that they did not do this a little more seriously.

[Kiran_Yagami]

Disney's constant warring with fandoms on multiple fronts has made Disney+ unusable. I've cancelled it and I'll probably never go back. They don't want you to be entertained. They want to tell you how bad you are just for existing. It's very tiring.

[Fuentes]

Lol I'll go with what u put down cause all the other stuff I never checked out and I never listen too for music haha the latest albums i listen to was Dave East, G Herbo and YG although YG only had like two songs the rest I think were ass

[AviatorTom]

Did you actually see these movies and listen to these songs? If do, you are contributing to the impression that they're any good.

[MCheetah]

I watched all of She Hulk: Attorney at Law on Putlockers (I'd never pay for Disney+), heard these songs on YouTube as I was making this post, and watched YouTube reviews of Saints Row, which was once my second favorite game franchise of all time (second only to Pokemon.) Both She Hulk and Saints Row were among my favorites in the superhero and sandbox gaming genre, so to see both of them fall this low, especially upsets me. I couldn't care less about Bros, but telling hetero people to go die and saying stuff that would otherwise be " extremely homophobic" if they said it to LGBT people, puts it up here. Not to mention, the movie cost $22 mil and made like $2 mil on opening weekend; it's a mega-flop.

[LemiaOfThunder]

I'm interested to know what made Scarlett and Voilet bad games. I obv know you liked the older ones. Is it GameFreak keep repeating itself or is it something more.

[MCheetah]

They're broken, glitchy, can't work, are boring, that f***ing Always-on Exp. Share is still on and ruins the gameplay, and the Pokemon suck.

I haven't even played them myself, and I absolutely hate ALL of the horrendous Pokemon titles on Switch, which is why Ultra Sun is probably going to be the very last Game Freak Pokemon game I ever bought. All the Switch Pokemon games have these same problems I mentioned, broken, glitchy, buggy, mandatory Exp. Share which ruins the gameplay completely, and massive downgrades from the handheld games, at twice the price.

The worst game of all was the Sinnoh remakes, as they quite LITERALLY kept all of the bad problems of Diamond and Pearl AND all for the worst things about the new games (always-on Exp Share, cheating like Ash through Affection dodges and non-KO's, single-use TMs, no Fire types like the original Diamond and Pearl, etc.) Sinnoh is one of my least favorite regions and Pokemon games, and even I was pissed off at how DIRTY they did those games! And yes, I know it wasn't Game Freak. But the fact that Pokemon Platinum, a game you can play for free online right now, is superior in every single way to BD/SP, speaks volumes of how badly Pokemon games have gotten.

And no, I didn't play Legends: Arceus, which looks mediocre at best. It still has always-on Exp. Share, so it's still not worth any of my money, let alone twice the price of the better handheld games.

[MCheetah]

In fact, I'm playing Pokemon Renegade Platinum right now, on an R4 card, on my Nintendo DS Lite. So I haven't stopped playing Pokemon games. There's a lot of great ROM Hacks out there. But I'll probably never support Game Freak again. Renegade Platinum is literally superior to BD/SP, in every single way, and has all the modern updates, moves, and Fairy types in it, as well. As well as multiple TM use. Only thing it doesn't have, are new Pokemon.

And I'm sure you've seen this video before on YouTube; how a Diamond/Pearl remake SHOULD look in 2021-2022...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3btATgwOUFg

And yet the biggest gaming franchise on the planet gives us the horrendous dogs**t that was Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl (and never ONCE updated it, patched the game properly, or added a Platinum update, either.)

And like I said, before Kalos, and before Galar and Paldea, Sinnoh used to be my least favorite Pokemon region/games. I've ended up hating every even-numbered Pokemon generation except Gen 2/Johto. But even Diamond and Pearl were a 6 out 10. No Switch Pokemon game is higher than a 5.5.

Even goddamn Pokemon Masters, a free mobile game, has voice acting, and Game Freak can't give us that on for generation-freaking-NINE on the Switch? I could rant all day about how much I hate Game Freak/The Pokemon Company (whichever one is more responsible) now. I truly wish Game Freak would get fired and would stop making Pokemon games.

Aren't like 9/10 of all these actors trannies anyway?
