Am I doing this for Big Mouth or is it really that awful? Seems like the only humour is shock stuff but the shock has long worn off. I can't even tell who it's meant for, kids who ignore the rating that might still learn something from it?

I find it helps to avoid the hype trains surrounding new media releases, as well as anything after the teaser trailer.

Getting one’s expectations up usually results in the said media failing to live up.

Best to go in blind and make your own mind up afterwards!

Goonies.

Anything Luc Besson. The scenarios are at most generic stereotypes with empty characters, with the usual ultra cringe sexy girl-child. People love his 5th Element, which is at best a generic action-scifi B movie, with no inspiration except purely stealing from Moebius. He doesn't know how to hold a camera, and he's even worse when it comes to editing. As a French, I'm surrounded by people who grew up with his movies and are very emotional about it so I can't say it too loud but... I hate it soooo much. (and yeah, he's a sex offender... who could have guessed?)

Blazing Saddles. I barely laughed and turned it off when cowboys started farting.

This is me with literally any movie that tries to get me to feel things. I'm pretty sure I have alexithymia.

Though sometimes I find myself thinking about a film weeks after I watched it, and I then it's like "I guess maybe I did like the film".

Not a movie, but for me House of Leaves was awful. Most of the characters are extremely flat and we barely get to see them interact. The central gimmick of run-on footnotes and rabbit holes is more annoying than profound, even if it did tie into the themes well. The author also clearly has something against women, since I can't name a single female character who isn't a either sex object, a prostitute, or an adulterer. The horror atmosphere also didn't land for me, mostly because it's so surreal that I can't get invested in the characters as actual people.
