I'll go first. Mine is that I can't stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It's like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds

Oh, I didn't mind the slow pace that much but I couldn't see what the movie was getting at as it seemed like a diary entry of a mafioso. The overarching elements throughout the first half somehow didn't appeal to me. Marvel has been going downhill for quite a while but that's a different topic

Indeed. That's what editing does to a film - it helps the story make sense. It's the only thing that makes film an art form different from any other imo. Acting is art, cinematography is art, music/scoring is art. Directing is only art if it adds some new interpretation.

My joke about Marvel and porn is that their payoff is in some form of orgasm - special effects that wow audiences or literally make them ejaculate.
