Mine turns eleven this month. Dislikes Star Wars and Star Trek. Loves magical girl anime and Pokemon. We have been able to share some stuff though: Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, Netflix She-Ra, Gravity Falls, ATLA and Korra. However, if people spend 1% too long in a spaceship, she is DONE.
Mine loves “obscure” anime, cult movies and non-fictional stuff. She also loved She-Ra, Gravity Falls, Avatar, etc. Just the sci-fi stuff turns her off overall. If it’s weird cult movie sci-fi she tends to like it, but straight up sci-fi bores her.
as far as weird cult scifi movies go, we loved At The Earth’s Core starring Troy Doug McClure and Peter Cushing. MST3K does it, but they take out the two best scenes. the one where they get attacked by a fire-breathing big mac box and the one where Peter Cushing yells “you can’t mesmerize me, I’m British”.
Well it’s a 14-year-old phase.
She likes animation a lot and doesn’t even care about Lower Decks! Sigh.
I can’t get her into MST3K either. What have I been raising?
But but… Lower Decks has Eugene Cordero! MST3k has Crow T Robot! Does she know about Eugene and Crow?
She knows about Crow. Eugene not so much. She doesn’t know who Jerry O’Connell is either. Has she not seen Stand By Me and Sliders?
Oh wait, she hasn’t.
How much of the stuff your parents watched did you get into?
A huge amount, but then my dad was a film historian.

She watched Birdemic unriffed and thought it was hilarious. She’s an odd kid.
What about prodigy? Lower Decks is kinda meh at the beginning TBH.
So is Prodigy though. I didn’t stick with it at first because the first two or three episodes weren’t great. I’m glad I went back to it.
True.
