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

The original Star Wars movies were probably really good and genre defining in the late 70s, but they're just boring and campy now.

Old things used to be good, now they're not so good if you compare them with the new things.

Same with original Star Trek. I love Trek, but that shit is unwatchable. I read the novels to get the context to better enjoy TNG and after, I can't hand the godawful sound effects and William Shatner's smug mug. How are there so many episodes based around how "attractive" that man is?!

I accept this. I saw these when they premiered- like lining up outside the theatre and everyone cheering, etc. That was in middle school and high school and it was a true experience at the time. So, I’ll always have a soft spot for them, but you’re basically correct.
