Yep, agree with that.  Usually if I see 'Wait for it', I'll scroll passed or close out as quick as I can.  Kind of a race to not see what's intended.

I kind of give them a pass on that one.  I don't think it's something that was done wrong so much as a decision made because it's the way people watching would expect it.  It's the same for explosions in space.  If every space explosion you saw in movies had no sound, it would be much less cool.  Even if it was more accurate.  Not even mentioning that the explosion wouldn't look like how they are portrayed in movies.

There's also things like, like banking a turn.  We see planes make banked turns, so that's what makes sense in our minds.  But in space there is no air.  So a banked turn ain't going to happen.

   I think that people who spend money on goumet salt have too much money.  Do you expect me to believe that you can taste whether a dish was cooked with Hawaiian Alaea Salt, Asin Tibuok Sea Salt, Light Grey Celtic Sea Salt, Kashmir Pink Himalayan Salt, Cyprus Flake Sea Salt, etc., etc., etc...
People are such pretentious creatures.  Salt is salt.

They've done taste tests.  The answer is: no, people can't tell the difference.

While we're on the subject....   in every space movie or series we've ever seen when spaceships meet they're always oriented the same, as if there was an up and down in space.  There isn't.  In reality those ships should be oriented differently.  They should be upside down and at every other possible angle to each other.  JS

    Chopping songs.  When I was a kid AM radio was king.  FM didn't exist in any meaningful form.  There were long and short versions to many songs we loved.  When the DJ played the short version of say "Light My Fire" by the Doors we would be angry and deeply offended.  In retrospect it made perfect sense for them to play the short versions.  Their money was in commercials.  The more commercials per hour the more money. 
      Then in the late 60s FM radio came along.  It was far less mercenary than AM.  It was considered "Underground Radio" then.  It would play the long versions of our favorite songs or even whole albums.  Since the sound was superior eventually FM squeezed out AM.  Then it became AM. 
     Chopping songs, though totally annoying, made sense financially.  But now I have YouTube Premium.  They are already making their money.  Yet they chop songs.  Like the drum solo in Santana's "Soul Sacrifice"
at Woodstock.  Or Alvin Lee's iconic "Going Home."  Or the noise part of Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love."   And many others.
     Do they think we're too stupid to notice?  What possible reason could there be for non-musicians to butcher classic masterpieces of Rock?  It's not like they have to squeeze more commercials in.  Chopping Rock songs really urinates me off. 
         

Beer commercials.  They always show young, beautiful people with perfect model bodies drinking their beer.  Not one beer gut in the bunch, ever.  Come on.
