Becoming sympathetic to consequentialist thought has definitely ruined most (almost all?) pop culture artifacts involving morality for me.
Try being sympathetic to egoist thought and watching the movies. While I enjoy "It's a Wonderful Life" and "The Philadelphia Story", I consider the morality monstrous.
"Wow, they should definitely put a bullet in that guy's head ASAP,"
Yes, and in the magic fictional universe, not blowing him away when you had the chance miraculously turns out for the good, instead of getting everyone killed.

LW is big on consequentialism, utilitarianism and other quantifiable ethics one can potentially program into a computer to make it provably friendly. However, I posit that most of us intuitively use virtue ethics, and not deontology or consequentialism. In other words, when judging one's actions we intuitively value the person's motivations over the rules they follow or the consequences of said actions. We may reevaluate our judgment later, based on laws and/or actual or expected usefulness, but the initial impulse still remains, even if overridden. To quote Casimir de Montrond, "Mistrust first impulses; they are nearly always good" (the quote is usually misattributed to Talleyrand).
Some examples:
I am not sure how to classify religious fanaticism (or other bigotry), but it seems to require a heavy dose of virtue ethics (feeling righteous), in addition to following the (deontological) tenets of whichever belief, with some consequentialism (for the greater good) mixed in.
When I try to introspect my own moral decisions (like whether to tell the truth, or to cheat on a test, or to drive over the speed limit), I can usually find a grain of virtue ethics inside. It might be followed or overridden, sometimes habitually, but it is always there. Can you?
