All of them.
I really don't like that he keeps doing them. It's a bit juvenile and as the years have gone by his music quality has dipped to the point where the flippancy isn't justified. It has an aura of laziness about it.

Yup, I agree. If it tied into the nature of a film (like a comedy), then it might make sense. But, they got old fast and add nothing of note to the soundtrack experience.

100% feel the same here. They were slightly amusing in the beginning but quickly grew tiresome. Now, the puns are downright childish. I mean, this is his profession, after all. You'd think he'd take his work a little more seriously and drop the puns.
As much as I hate to admit it, I can be listening to a piece of music of his, but then look at the silly track title, and honestly, it can detract from the enjoyment I am feeling in that moment.

Puns are meant to be groanworthy. That's how you know they're good.
I cannot imagine a scenario where the name of a track affects my enjoyment of it.

I like the tongue-in-cheek approach to track titles, Giacchino and Goldenthal are the ones who regularly do this. Unfortunately, Goldenthal isn't doing many film scores any more.
It may just be puns and not all of them are "laughing out loud" puns, but it's more entertaining to read track titles like that than just straightforward descriptive action titles. So I'm team puns here.

Not really a fan of Giacchino's puns either, always thought Beltrami was way better at them (and also smart enough to not make every title a pun)

I hate them too. Always have. Spend more time learning how to write a progressive theme and less time writing unfunny puns.

Personally, I always loved his puns. Nothing wrong with having a little fun with a project for the soundtrack release. They're supposed to make you groan. 
From Lightyear I got a chuckle out of "Time to Space Your Fears" and "Back to Buzzness". The Batman had a few good ones too -- "Highway to the Anger Zone", "Can't Fight City Halloween", "Escaped Crusader".
Yeah, they're fun, tongue-of-cheek. I mean, lots of it is loud, noisy music for big box office blockbusters, so I don't mind a bit of "don't take this too seriously".
