Sounds in space is an easy one: stupid audiences will complain that the sound went out. There needs to be some audio or the uneducated will bleet. They can't enjoy the silence.

Without sound in those space scenes, how will the low attention span crowd know when to look up from their phones?

Audience in 1968 were already bitchin' about the silence in 2001 A Space Odyssey
Anytime that anyone catches the edge of a building/edge/rock formation with a one handed grip and then dangles from their fingertips, ESPECIALLY when they have been flung and/or or sliding over the edge, I call shenanigans. Even professional rock climbers would have a hard time pulling that off.

Similar to my earlier frustration.
...or they fall and manage to reach up at the last second to grab said ledge (or someone else's hand) which would have passed them by seconds earlier.
3D animation. I was watching the Iron Giant last night. I kept thinking how sad it is that we don't get 2D animation like this anymore (I realize it has 3D animation as well). At least when it comes to western 2D animation. Obviously, eastern 2D is still plentiful.

And the person pulling them up by one hand is ridiculous. It's pretty much impossible for the average person to pull up the dead weight of an entire adult person with one arm, without proper leverage.
As to the earlier comments of a person grabbing onto something while falling, in "Spider-Man 2," frail, old Aunt May using her umbrella to hook onto the building was unbelievable. Not only wouldn't she have the strength, her fabric-gloved hands certainly would've slipped off of the slick nylon material of the umbrella. Not even a "Ninja Warrior" has that kind of grip strength.

Multiverse. Obviously specifically Marvel, but how lazy and dumb are they to kill off hero's only to bring them back repeatedly through the nonsense of the 'Multiverse' idea.
Because they don't care, it's actually smart. It creates an endless way to rinse and repeat for profit. Problem is, it takes away from the previous stories that conclude the hero's journey satisfactorily.

In the 1980s(?) one of the daytime TV soap operas showed a character waking up from a dream and used that to erase a whole season of stuff.
These multiverses are a coat of sci-fi paint on the same thing. You can't sustain interest/drama when all the consequences are negotiable.
Yes! It's even dumber when the hero is hanging by one arm and catches another, then while still hanging pulls that person up to the ledge. Even Arnold would have trouble pulling that off!

I'm all for the Multiverse if they used it in SW and have Luke wake up with the Sequels having been a Force vision of what happens if he does something wrong!

Aw c'mon, the physics are exactly the same!
A 30# bike will fall just as fast as a 400# motorcycle dropped from a tower.

You are thinking of Dallas, Bobby in the shower. Hilariously, on Knots Landing, the spin off, Bobby stayed dead.
I actually have a bachelors degree in computer animation, so this might be heresy, but I actually agree with you. I still love the good old fashioned hand drawn masterpieces.
I’ll never forget in school, my first ever animation class was old school pencil drawing and it was taught by two former Disney animators. One of my favorite classes of all time. I had absolutely no problem holding a pencil all day.
It actually wouldn’t be a bad idea for someone like Disney to go old school for a one-time movie now. I was just thinking that if they did I’d never have even the slightest chance of getting hired because since everyone moved away from it, the great masters of 2d have all had to find other work or learn computers (which is why I had such good teachers) and would all be available.
If Disney decided to do one now they could have the dream team of the best of the best.
