The Stan Lee Effect 

Movie theaters have a very simple etiquette. Don't talk, silence your phone & keep it put away. Be mindful & respectful to others. At first it was harmless, people would briefly clap to a Stan Lee cameo and continue with the movie. As marvel movies got more popular so did clapping for Stan Lee cameos which went on longer than it should and this is where the Stan Lee effect began. It became obnoxiously normal for people to lose their shit when Stan Lee was on screen to where movie etiquette was completely forgotten. And now the Stan Lee effect has spread to different movies for example Shazam! After a really cool reveal one guy started clapping really loudly then the whole theater started clapping and continued to clap over a few seconds of dialogue. That's TOO MUCH CLAPPING! JUST CLAP AT THE END!
"Why the fuck is everybody clapping? I can't hear what's happening in the movie!"

"It's the Stan Lee Effect, some of these people might be genuine fans but most of these people are just clapping because someone else is, or they wanted to feel special and start a clap wave."

"This isn't even a marvel movie!"

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!
