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 think this is more popular than you think. Most serious SW fans appreciate Rian Johnson's attempt to take the franchise somewhere it had never been before, storytelling-wise, and the shitty retcon-fest that was ROS seems to have made it better by comparison. I've seen plenty of people online say it's the best aged film out of the sequel films.

Love TFA. Love TLJ. Love parts of ROTS but it's.... rough. Not a movie I'll choose to rewatch without a really strong reason. Most of it is so disjointed. You can tell there were so many ideas that were cut from the movie and things that were put together in ways that weren't. Then there's that fucking dagger...

Weird you could replace the phantom menace with rots, dagger with "podracer" and your have another completely true sentence!
