In all of these scenarios we'll have to assume the entire population is familiar with what's being discussed, which I admit is a huge stretch in many examples:

-Would consider Graf Orlock a better band than the Beatles?
-Would rather go to a Dude Fest set than an opera?
-Would consider Quentin Tarantino superior to William Shakespeare?
-Would consider opebo a likable guy?
-Would rather live in Detroit than Forsyth County, Georgia?
-Would consider rap to mindless noise?
-Would consider metal to be mindless noise?
-Would consider real emo like Ampere and Antioch Arrow to be mindless noise?
-Would rather take a 12-year old girl to Lars von Trier's Antichrist* than a Twilight movie?
-Would consider Beavis and Butthead Do America a superior movie to Casablanca?
-(Among females 15 and under) would rather watch Weeds than iCarly?

*This is a film I have not seen because even reading the Wikipedia article on it made me feel physically sick.

This forum may not be a perfect sample of the population at large, but it's not THAT off.

My answers are...
Who?
A what?
Who?
Who?
Where?
"to be better than"? If so, then I can't answer as they are one in the same.
See above
Who? Or is that a thing?
To what?
What?
Watch what?

Interestingly, I'm very well liked by about 50% of people that know me, tolerated as a pleasant enough repulsive rogue by another 40%, and genuinely disliked by maybe 10% who I really rub the wrong way.  I find that most of that ten percent are people who have very extreme views of intolerance on the subject of sex, relationships, lifestyle, and cannot bear a man who just goes about honestly doing what comes naturally without any feeling or sense that he should owe or commit in any way.

I have now read the Wikipedia article too out of curiosity. Sounds even worse than Salo, and that's saying something.

I don't know Opebo, but 0.000000000002% of the world population is much less then one human being. So he must be really unpopular ;-)

I consider Beavis and Butthead Do America to be superior to Casablanca. Also, Antichrist was awesome. Just watch it.
