There's no satisfaction in picking on Ed Wood and other small-timers who didn't really have any negative effect on the state of the film industry.
My personal peeve is "Star Wars" which gets a surprising amount of respect even among this bunch of cynics. Besides being just dumb, it created the franchise mentality that has stifled originality in film-making ever since. It also derailed the science fiction genre from its cerebral roots (think 2001, The Day the Earth Stood Still, etc.) into a mishmash of medieval hokum and spaceship shootemups.
