    I dislike this for the same reason I dislike the Wilhelm Scream, it breaks the immersing and reminds you that you’re watching a movie. Then, instead of the story, you’re thinking about the actual making of the film etc.

      Yea Wilhelm is practically an easter egg at this point for the true film buffffss. I don’t mind it but it’s definitely focus breaking in that way, and the MCU stuff wouldn’t be so bad if it wasn’t so overdone. Like when Firefly came out I didn’t mind that style of dialogue, all the characters are basically Joss Whedon but it’s his show and Buffy was sort of like that too… but now it’s like every character is a little Joss Whedon and it’s just too much Whedon.

      Imagine if Wes Anderson’s idiosyncratic understated dialogue became a thing everyone did. I totally get why people don’t like his movies but I can appreciate what he’s doing for what it is. I would hate them if that style became common.
