Watching forbidden movies is , and one should object to whoever watches them. A husband's disobedience to his Lord does not negate his conjugal rights. Therefore, the wife must fulfill his right to the bed unless doing so would cause harm; otherwise, she is disobedient. A wife's refusal to fulfill her husband's right is not a legitimate method of objection, as it may lead to a greater evil. The wife's duty is to advise her husband gently, remind him of Allah, avoid sitting with him while he watches these movies, and supplicate for his guidance.
