Jack Nevada Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 .. these days every time a character is eating in a movie we have to hear all the munching, crunching and slurping in grisly detail. I already dont like to hear people much their food, so hearing it in surround is even worse. I guess this would be a "That little thing in movies that drives me crazy". What minor thing has become your pet peeve? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 The next movie I see where the villain gets captured and imprisoned but that was his plan THE WHOLE TIME I'm walking out of. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I hate the line "There's a storm coming.". I dunno. I just roll my eyes whenever I hear it. C'mon guys, be a little more imaginative with your foreshadowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Also things that show a lack of imagination involving children: Using children as the most creepy things on the planet in horror movies never really works for me. Nor does using them saying rude shit. Always seems like the cheapest way to get a laugh. Like I hear people go on about how hilarious it was in The Descendants when that little girl just said "twat" a bunch of times or when she flipped her middle finger at that guy. Seriously? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Gary Scott Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I hate how most horror movies end with the sequel in mind. I'm talking to you the crazies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChD Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I think that the thing I hate most is when the main character, usually in an pure no brainer action movie, fights a whole army, ALONE, gets shot and stabbed a few times, and still manages to beat them all and walk out on his own... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinHood26 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 The Next time I see a mother fucking person die on screen and come back to life, Im gonna walk myself off a cliff. I swear I think ive seen 6 movies this year were if they would have had the balls to actually kill the person I would have giving it 1 full letter grade up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashrendar44 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) I now hate that moment when the bad guy stops to monologue and lecture the good guy (when the latter is in a weak position and the bad guy could easily defeat him at this point of the movie) on how they're more of the same. Two sides of the same coin shit. "You know, you and me are not that different. In fact, in the end, you gotta face it...You're like me!!!" And then the good guy always have to respond some way "NOOOOO, I'm not like you because I'm the GOOOOD guy and you're the Bad guy!!!!" (Used since The Empire Strikes Back at least) Also the ship/plane/whatever thing flying in a way or another that falls to crash (with sound FX) *silence* and miraculously fly up in front of the camera with heroic theme sweeping. Lame suspense trope. Edited June 9, 2013 by dashrendar44 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 When movies have characters on the verge of death or getting shot by 123019237123 bullets and still surviving when it's so fucking obvious that they're gonna die. It's logic defying, odd, and lacking in conviction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 When a person is getting punched multiple times in the face and still manages to go on without any sign of pain or injury as if it was a balloon hitting him. And the over exaggerated sound effects that go with it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Wang Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 One of my biggest pet peeves is the, "24 hours earlier/1 week earlier" bit where we see something and then cut back to before it happen. I FUCKING HATE THAT!!!!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 How about in romantic comedies when if characters actually acted like adults the "trouble separating them" would be resolved in 5 minutes? 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Star Trek Into Darkness. Last year it was The Avengers and Skyfall. Before that was TDK. Khan didn't plan on getting captured, he simply had no other option once he learned his Botany Bay crew was on the Enterprise and primed to be turned into human projectiles. It's a far more realistic scenario than those other three movies where the crux of the villain's plot involved getting captured and springing chaos from within to further the next step. Here Khan was forced to submit and then once in custody had to scramble to figure out how to save his crew, obtain leverage, and then finally acquire the ability to retaliate against Admiral Marcus. He was improvising. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vc2002 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 one side hung up the phone and the other side yells "hello? hello?" for 5 - 10 seconds even he hears the call-ended tone. This is actually very common in movies, and it's really stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
