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

Adam Sandler would be under a bridge smoking yabba if we went by his "critical reviews"

He is now, but it's because HE CHOOSES TOO!

Right? Like totalky different context ;)

Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, etc are corney as fuck, but in a fun way. You can throw shit at the wall as long as you do it in an entertaining way.

Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson are great, imo.

Adam Sandler sucks nuts and his movies are the dumbest shit ever made. And not funny-dumb, but annoying.

I regret that I am able to upvote this only once. I am definitely not in the target demographic for his style of comedy.

My fave "movies" are random shit I made as a teenager or other random works of random auteurs.

I love low-production value, its just funnier and way more creative in a necessity type sense

I feel the same way about a lot of different art forms. I like stuff that's janky with a lot of heart.

I don't particularly care for gatekeepers or like Yelpers either aha

Bad reviews are my gateways into entirely foreign delightful worlds ;)
