Footnote: The film documentary series that refers to “the Hollywood bauble” is the excellent The Story of Film: An Odyssey (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_...)
Come for the Irish accent of the presenter, stay for a comprehensive discussion of film that includes a rundown of the different styles that arose in different countries.

err, and I am getting too old for:
shooters
platformers
waiting for the characters to say their lines when I have subtitles on
waiting for the text box to finish scrolling the text
cutscenes in general
tutorials that tell me to use the left joystick to move
"after 20 hours, it really opens up"
final boss fights that are 2 boss fights in a row without a chance to heal or restock items
the last 1/3 of a strategy game when you are the clear superpower
Rockstar game controls
half-assed stealth sections

I have always been too old for stealth sections.
LastSuprise: Destroyer of Wallets would be an excellent tag and/or third handle for you.

I do better at stealth sections if they never give me the option to blast my way through it.
I wish you guys would stop encouraging him.
