However, it appears that I am in the minority with this opinion. It seems that most people aren't affected by smokiing in films and some are even turned on by it (see furthest1's post).

Not completely in the minority. I feel the same way you do.

If it's a period piece that calls for it, then it should be in there.

If it's a contemporary family film, I don't see the point of it, unless it has to do with a character trying to quit smoking.
