My wife is kind of one now I guess and she doesn’t like it. Way too weird. Characters literally try to put things up their butts to improve their fighting powers.

That's more wacky reddit humor, which is fully mainstream now, than actually weird

I like the Oscars. They don't have to be similar to my personal taste, for that to be true, but in general, when watching many movies from one year in a short time (90+ from each of 2013 and 2014 now recently, out of 150+ I have ever watched from those years), I think the Oscars are a decent representation of the best movies of that year. Some great movies do get overlooked (not nominated at all), but that's not surprising.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

That sounds like people who buy Gwyneth Paltrow products.
