The sloth scene totally annoys me. Except for when the sloth ever-so-slowly smiles and laughs. That was funny.
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

They lost me by having the sloth sequence be 90% of the trailer. I was clawing at my seat expectantly waiting for the next preview to start so I wouldn't have to watch/listen to that anymore.
FYI: I don't remember it being a big part of the trailer but that scene seems interminable in the movie.

Okay, I see now, the sloth trailer at the first link is probably a good percentage of that scene. Not quite all I don't think.

The sloth trailer seemed to me like a trying-too-hard copy of the scotch tape gag in Big Hero 6. Like it's a Disney mandate to have one of those in all of their movies.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
ION -- OMG GHOSTBUSTERS TRAILER!!! I am all the way there for that movie. It looks like it's going to be really good.
Yes! Can't wait.

What is your favorite film from the last year that was not nominated for any Oscar?
Maybe Dope, which was GREAT and everyone should watch it.

Maybe Dope, which was GREAT and everyone should watch it.
Note: I take full responsibility for this.
My top ten favorite non-nominated films would probably fall roughly in this order:
The Diary of a Teenage Girl
Tangerine
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl
Spy
Bande de filles (Girlhood)
Meadowland
Dope
McFarland, USA
Mistress America
Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation
I'd put most of these above most of the "best" pictures in terms of interest/enjoyment.
