M*A*S*H is such an unusual movie that I asked my class to tell me what annoyed them about it. That certainly stimulated discussion. Some students didn't like the overlapping dialogue (although others did). Some didn't like the episodic nature of the movie. One student hated everything about Hot Lips, both before the famous shower scene (which dramatically alters the character) and after. Another student, who admitted she's sensitive about such things, simply couldn't look at all the blood. I should have asked them to say what they liked also, but there wasn't time. Maybe next week.
