I just got done watching James and the Giant Peach... a movie that I really liked as a kid. Now, after watching it again, I think it's terrible.

What are some examples where your childhood memory of something turns out to be really terrible as an adult?

Pootis

Almost every single cartoon form the '80s and '90s. The animation looks weird and the "plot" of each episode is just so dumb.

"It is the cruelest fate, to have written words that meant well and see them made wicked and unwise. What was meant to encourage life, used instead to justify taking it."

The Star Wars prequels used to fill me with such fascination. My imagination went wild with daydreams of heroic Jedi knights, ruthless Sith lords, and epic space battles.

Then I grew up, and realized the prequels sucked.

I used to love Episode 1.

Then I realized how awful it was.

I watched Space Jam not too long ago. I wish I had left that movie alone.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

That movie kind of creeped me out
