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

I don't like the star wars movies, think they're not nearly as good as people claim they are

This is certainly down to me being raised in a post OT world of good sci fi, but that doesn't make them worth watching these days. The only reason they are imo is to understand extended media

Extended star wars media though? Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme

I feel like it's sort of a citizen Kane kinda thing. It's a really important movie, and considering its time and context it was a very good movie, but it isn't a particularly fun film to watch these days.

As a huge fan of Star Wars, they are not as good as people claim.

Call me strange but my favorite movie is always been the phantom menace. It just seemed so original I love the pod racing parts.

It could be nostalgia and it could be biased too cuz I love the N64 pod racing game
