For my El Camino where the filter hangs from the bottom, yea I fill it. The oil pressure needle pops right up. Instant oil pressure = good. Slow to see oil pressure = bad. It is not just the film, it is the pressure.
For my 911, the filter is mounted sideways. No way to fill it, and removing the old filter always makes a mess even with paper towels under the filter.
The 911 with dry sump lubrication, always get instant pressure.
I don't care what someone using crappy oil filters says. And it only takes 30 seconds to fill the filter.
