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

    Solo is the only Star Wars movie I have seen that I actually liked, it was honestly pretty great and it mystifies me why it was a flop. I guess because it didn’t focus on lame space wizards?

    Donald Glover as Lando was absolutely hilarious and amazing.

      The only reason Solo flopped is because it came on the heels of The Last Jedi, which left a very bad taste in a lot of fans mouths. TLJ nearly brought the entire franchise to its knees. If it weren’t for the success of The Mandalorian shortly after, I think a lot of fans would have abandoned Star Wars entirely. If they had waited just 1 more year to release it, Solo would have been a much bigger hit.

        It is a cowboy western in space complete with a train robbery, high stakes poker game and lots of evading the law… so what if TLJ sucked I don’t see how people didn’t find it a blast especially because it made the origin story of how chewy and solo met so fun.
