    I don’t like musicals because I’m there for a story that’s believable, and that I can relate to - nobody just breaks out in song when they get dumped, for example. Muppets get a pass because I already had to suspend my disbelief in order to even want to watch them.

      Nah, you just have boring friends. Weirdo.

      So do you react the same way to sci fi or fantasy movies? I mean nobody uses magic or flies faster than light in real life. I’ve always been puzzled by this point of view because I don’t get why this is where the line is drawn.

        I know where you’re coming from, but there are people who genuinely do not care for neither musical, fantasy, nor sci-fi.
