Things in movies that really annoy you

For me it's when the potential victim hears a noise outside, goes out to check and leaves the door wide open behind her! Who would do that??

Kevin James

El Guapo!

I don't get why any black guy would go on a dangerous mission/ go through a scary place.
Everyone knows the black guy always dies.

mauzo

The sex scenes. Almost everything about them.

Its just not realistic at all! Especially when the covers are up over her boobs, ffs nobody does that! Show me your boobs!

MiamiMice

Renne Zellweger

Father Damo

Naggers.

marshbaboon

Happy endings. So predictable.

So there's a killer/monster in the house? Lets split up one by one and not stay together, genius.

dodderangler

When someone like the bad guy gets the hero and starts talking instead of just shooting him
An then the hero somehow gets the gun off him
Cuz he was telling a story instead of killin him

Or when they hear a noise they leave their room without a phone and go "Hello???" really loudly around the house

It should be the thing that movie people should first concentrate on and get right, the story and the script.

I am a sci/fi head so I was really looking forward to Prometious but to spite 150 million dollars spent on the production, they totally fukced up the script and story to make it a below a mediocre film.

Ridley Scott you toss-pot, its not like him to let me down.

Going by the reviews Total Recall has the same problem.

starbelgrade

Any film starring Jim Carey or Adam Sandler.

1) Both the subtle and more direct forms of American propaganda
2) Blatant product placement.

Prometheus was the inspiration for this thread

I think the main problem with Adam Sandler is that he went "full retard" and never really came back.

That, and the fact that he's not funny.

He went? I always thought that was permanent on him :pac:

This applies to TV, too, but nobody ever says goodbye on the phone. They just hang up.

I'd be confused ringing them back thinking they ran out of credit or the phone died to make sure.

Person: "Yea?"
Me: "Well, did you run out of credit or what?"
Person: "No?"
Me: "Oh, did the phone die then?"
Person: "No, I thought we were done talking."
Me: "Were we?
Person: "Yes"
Me: "Oh.......uh...........ok............................Anyways......"

*calls end*

Me: "Hell.....................hello?"

*BEEP.........BEEP.........BEEP*

Me: "Prick"

The script gaffs was really annoying and they were numerous.

Also the best of the Alien franchise was the tension the stories generated there was always an element of unpredictability, this one was all:rolleyes::rolleyes: well guess what will happen now.

Micheal Fashbinder was the only saving grace about that waste of money.

All shíte.

Colmustard

A tendency for some British films to ruin a film by killing off the main protagonist examples

Layer Cake, London Boulevard

and others. My theory is they try to make them into a Shakespearian Tragedy

You should watch him in Stranger Than Fiction, a little gem of a movie and Ferrell gets to show he can actually act.

Also, Elf!

Any film that the general media/mass cinema goers tell ya to go see. Particularly comedies.

westies4ever

Hollywoods insistence on happy endings.

I'd pretty much agree with you if it wasn't for Punch Drunk Love. Sandler is good in that from what I can remember.

Dave0301

I hate bad Irish accents in movies, Gerard Butler in P.S I Love One.......*shudder*

Although that does raise the question, wtf I was doing watching that tripe in the first place!

Colmustard

Any film shot with a video camera, EG Blair witch, Chronicle, cloverfield.

The way people are given 3 seconds to answer their door before someone rings the bell again or starts furiously knocking, I'm always thinking "give em a fcuking chance!"

Also when people talk on the phone and there is no way in hell the person on the other end has had the chance to say anything remotely as long as what's repeated by the person on the other end (that makes sense in my head?)

Finally when people are driving and either stare for about ten seconds at the person next to them without checking the road or else when they keep furiously steering even though there's no way a road has that many little turns in it!

Nearly every recent kid's movie is some shíte animation

Any film pretending to be based on a true story, when you know that it feckin isn't.

I think some of the Pixar ones are great. I am going to see Brave later on.

JohnMarston

Superfluous characters in the cast of a movie for the sake of gender-balance or race-balance

Diapason

I hate the depiction of computers in films. Even though a huge percentage of the population knows what they're seeing is NOTHING LIKE REALITY, they insist on coming up with some kind of crazy graphical stuff anyway. Swordfish might have been the worst ever.

Tarkus

After emptying my wallet for high priced admission & then having my shoes stick to the floor while I try to watch the movie.

Hate f'n sticky crap...

Ditto rap stars who, ironically, always play someone like a detective / cop :pac:

1. Flashbacks that show the character experiencing the events. Surely a flashback should be from their point of view only.

2. Annoying child characters added to appeal to the kiddie demographic..........The Phantom Menace.

not all of them now, Toy Story is one of the exceptions, but films like shrek 3,4 etc that are being milked and many other crappy animations

For the sake of your sanity, never watch Lost.

Anybody ever notice that in scenes involving cop cars, they always have the same cop radio repeating in the background. They do this in nearly every movie, tv show, and some games for the past 30 years now. It wrecks my head.

This!
