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

Can you elaborate on what specifically you didn't like about LOTR? Peter Jackson has always had a penchant for using cutting-edge CG tech in his films, to the point that some people call them tech demos. I think WETA's effects stand out as the best parts of the series, but the cinematography, sets, and acting are about as good as it gets in my opinion

The Hobbit, however....

I answered just below, or above :-)

For the CG, I was at Paris GDC (game developers conference) where naughy dog(black dog, ??? I don't remember) explained all the fuckups they did with LOTR, like when Aragorn magic-jumps on to his horse(idea was cool, execution horrible), the dragon flying through everything ...

But for me that wasn't the bad things (I love Star Trek and Dr Who!) but the blandness, "American style".
