Right now there is a Flash movie that has about 85% of the marketing focusing on Batman, Superman and Zod.
I get there is some "extra" to this story, but at face value it looks like a Batman vs Superman sequel that happens to be called The Flash.

Insert every X-Men writer who decided to focus excessively on Kitty Pryde because they used to spank it to her when they were kids

Neighbours had a young Margot Robbie, as a character and actress she was miles better than her peers. You'd think they'd make the most of such talent.
However the awful showrunner at the time built the show around her Mary Sue favourite instead who was portrayed by the most wooden actress you'll ever see.
The longer clip has gone but this still gives an idea even without context (a miscarriage).

Back when I read Marvel comics, they shoehorned Wolverine in everywhere. then later they did it again with Deadpool >_> Though Deadpool usually pointed out he was only there to sell more copies >_> Then DC did it with Harley Quinn. |

Eleven, a.k.a. "Stranger Things Poochie." Whenever Eleven’s not on screen, all the other characters should be asking, ‘Where's Eleven?’
There may be no character in all of entertainment who makes my eyes glaze over more than Eleven. Nothing about her storyline interests me, you couldn’t pay me to get remotely invested in the backstory that they delve into, and she’s the ultimate “Get Out of Jail Free Card,” in that whenever a situation seems tenuous for the kids of Hawkins, they can just call on Eleven to rescue them.
Any time she was on screen in the latest season, in the “Rainbow Room” or in the NINA tank, it took about 90 seconds before I was looking for my phone because I was bored with the scene.

I'm still trying to figure out how you make a post Return of the Jedi movie and it's got only like 12 seconds of Luke Skywalker. So... I guess kinda the opposite of the question lol. To be fair, the theory behind that in the Force Awakens was completely correct. You know you're going to have people wonder and speculate about what he's up to, so it's obvious that the plot's driving motivation is about finding him. The execution is where it becomes contentious. One of the big issues with later season Game of Thrones was the writers utter rejection of Tyrion's development as a person. They were too tied to the witty drunk angle to really delve into the cynical, depressing and really repulsive man he turns into in the books. |

You have characters that can shoot laser beams out of their eyes and create goddamn tornadoes with their mind, but we have to spend half our time wondering what Wolverine is up to.

To extend that, the DCU in general is now Batman and his Amazing Friends. |

In the wake of Jennifer Lawrence winning an Academy Award and just generally becoming a huge megastar, FOX tried hard to make her Mystique a cornerstone of the First Class series of X-Men films, even shoehorning her in as a founding member of the X-Men. This was made all the more awkward by the fact that Jennifer Lawrence just clearly did not want to play Mystique any more. While the rest of the movies might as well have been called WOLVERINE
AND THE X-MEN |

The American Pie series became The Stifler Show from the second film. American Wedding was especially bad. It was "Finch and Sitfler fight over a girl:featuring Jim and Michelle getting married" Kevin being there was beyond pointless. I feel like he had a dozen lines in the entire movie |

It was "Finch and Sitfler fight over a girl:featuring Jim and Michelle getting married" Kevin being there was beyond pointless. I feel like he had a dozen lines in the entire movie Don’t forget….. Stifler in a dance-off Stifler eats shit Stifler has sex with an old woman in a dark room It’s beyond pathetic. The original film does have some admittedly questionable scenes that don’t look too great now (let’s livestream a girl getting naked without her consent! HA!) but driving the whole series is a genuine affection between the four main guys that is actually quite endearing. That is thrown away by one of the four not being at Jim’s wedding with zero explanation for his absence. And then at the end of Reunion Stifler gets to screw Finch’s mum because somehow they felt the need to cancel out the only real advantage Finch ever held over Stifler. |

Law & Order: SVU became the Olivia Benson Show. Related note, one of the things that makes seasons 19 and 20 an utter chore to get through is the decision to introduce Stone, give him all the personality of a hunk of wood, and immediately make every single episode entirely about him. |
