Default Does hand-held camerawork put you off buying certain new movies?

OK I suppose I'm a traditionalist (I'm in my 60's) but I really dislike the current trend of using wobbly/jerky hand-held camerawork in so many movies these days. It annoys me when I see what should be a static shot of someone speaking and the camera is wobbling gently (or not so gently in some cases). Haven't some of these film makers heard of something called a tripod?

Anyway enough of my rant - but I'll admit there are some recent movies that I've declined to buy on Blu-ray simply because I know the hand-held camerwork would spoil my enjoyment. In fact the main reason I watch trailers of new movies here is to assess the general shooting style that has been used and help me decide whether to buy blind or rent first.

Are there any others out there who share my strong dislike of this so-called "style" of camerawork?
