Cinematic Defecit Disorder 

Cinematic Defecit Disorder, commonly known as CDD, is a unfortunate disease that continues to plague moviegoers each and every single day. It lobotomizes their tastes in film, to the point where they're beyond redemption. Please stop CDD :(

Person #1: Collateral was a kickass movie. Tom Cruise gave the performance of his career.
Person #2: Collateral sucked, it was boring. Go see Anacondas instead.
Person #1: -_-

Cinematic Fermentation 

A process of when a movie was made years ago, when it wasn't as groundbreaking by critics and/or audience, gradually developed into something timeless over a period of years. A movie from the 80s or 90s that didn't work during that era, but works now in present time.

Demolition Man is a great example of cinematic fermentation!

Cinematic Waterboarding 

When someone involuntarily subjects you to repeated watching of the same movie(s) to a point that can only be defined as torture.

As a young boy in the 80's, with two older sister, I was regularly subjected to cinematic waterboarding through Sixteen Candles, Pretty in Pink, and Oxford Blues.
