The movie that made me want to avoid all sex scenes in movies was Watchmen. Between the completely unnecessary scene and the song that played but just tainted the whole movie.

Except for the music, the scenes were pretty much straight from the book:

like licking a flashlight battery

it wasn't the lighter

I didn't have any issues with the Dr Manhattan scene. It was the Nightowl one with Hallelujah playing that felt so cringe.

I saw unnecessary violence in a movie and now I never want to see violence again.

It wasn't just unnecessary it was bad. Did you see it?

I totally agree. That was a weird fucking scene.
