Monkey Points 

In the film industry on low budget films, Monkey Points means that the talent (the actor, ...) receives a percentage of net profits instead of gross profits. Eddie Murphy coined the derogatory term because film industry accounting never shows a net profit and talent should always insist on points on gross profit, not net profit.
Eddie Murphy turned down the part saying he'd never be fool enough to take Monkey Points!

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
