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 couldn't sit through Pulp Fiction. By the milkshake scene I was done with these characters.

Just curious, how old are you? And how old were you when you saw it?

I'm 36 now, I was probably 26 or 28 when I sat down to watch it. Hit the stop button saying "Well I don't give a damn about this."

Did you watch/enjoy any of Tarantino's other films?

He's often praised for his dialogue but tbf I find some of the conversations not at all realistic. I can see how that could rub some people the wrong way.

Inglourious Basterds was okay. I can't say I've been much of a Tarantino fan.

Hi dialogues are so cringey. He thought very hard to make everyone say the coolest thing possible.
