Re: Aspects of a canon that immediately make you say, "Nope, not interested."

* Main characters who're a black hole of revenge and killing. Just wanting revenge on the central villain isn't bad, but when you kill person after person and your desire for revenge never lessens, I have to question the point of it.

* Most stuff involving forced sex. A couple years ago, I read an article on Rock Paper Shotgun about a video game based on a book series where one of the races has tentacles and has to regularly have sex with one of the other races in order to survive. My eyes nearly popped out of my head.

Yes, to the first. An overt all-consuming need for revenge both bores and infuriates me. Sometimes I just want to smack the character and yell "move the fuck on already!" Not discounting that sometimes people have legitimate grievances and a need to settle the score - I get this reaction in response to the convoluted plot-within-a-plot machinations that are set up by the main character to exact vengeance upon their eeevil enemy.

Most of the time, it feels like the main character has unintentionally mimicked the behavior of the villain they want to punish. Which would be good if it were an intentional authorial choice, but it doesn't usually seem to be the case.
