Things in movies that really annoy you

Horror movies where the girl is either scantily clad or just out of the shower when the villain decides to get her.

Like in Iron Man 2 when Mickey Rourke 'hacks' into Hammer's computer just by tapping 2 buttons, then takes a 5 second look at the program for robotic AI before declaring 'software's sh*t'.

Oh yeah Mickey, what's your idea, lightning whips or something... :rolleyes:

Why did he have his faceplate up when he was fighting the two boys at the end too. They were in walking guns and he's practically roaring for them to hit him with a headshot!

In fairness there are worse offenders than Bridesmaids (which was one of the funniest films ive seen in years) like every 'romcom' ever made

I am a villain. I could win by shooting you but... I won't.

I am evil. I like betraying my closest allies.

I am in a horror movie. What was that noise? Ah, I'm sure it was nothing. Nothings make lots of noise.

I am running away from a killer. He falls over and drops his weapon. I could get the weapon but I won't - because I like running.

I am a hero. I am right because I have so much self-doubt and angst.

I am a goon. I only shoot while wearing a blindfold.

Suspending the realities of physics and taking them as fictional movies, Armaggedon >>>>> Deep Impact >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The Day After Tomorrow.

And no, I never studied physics to any great degree which is probably why inaccuracies don't bother me. They fly over my silly little girly mind as I swoon over the heroic good guys

It is from 2012, but you might be remembering it from when Dara O'Briain had the guy who uttered that abomination of a line come on stage in one of his shows.

In the 1997 film Volcano with Tommy Lee Jones, the strange red hot substance coming from the ground isn't identified as lava until about 45 mins in when a geologist/specialist clears up the situation. The emergency services are baffled by this substance. They all see the lava but dont know what it is! ! ! A five year old knows what lava is and looks like.

Also, from the same film
Kelly Roark: Paper beats rock, but scissors beat paper.
Tommy: I'm not paper; I'm lava... what beats lava?
Kelly Roark: My dad... I hope!

This film made me very angry.

Burn lava burn ! !

This is on E4 right now and that line just got spoken

hilarious
this is so bad its good

Don't know if it was this thread or another that I prior mentioned it...

You are allowed see a person go into a property and then they shoot up a computer monitor, a keyboard (goes flying!) and even the damn mouse - then they think/say "Well that the computer destroyed!"

Aaa... no you fcuking muppet - look under the desk for the main box!

Grrrr! :mad:

How stupid do some film makers think we are, they taking amateurishness obvious short-cuts!
DUH!

The ending of a movie doesn't really seem like a proper ending and you feel there could've been another scene to end it as the end was dull.

or you do a Peter Jackson and have several movies worth of endings in one film :pac:

Something that annoys me, not about movies but specifically about DVDs is that for PAL regions, movies are sped up 4%

That means the movies are 4% shorter, everybody moves faster and all music and voices are pitched up. People with normal voices often turn very nasal.

If you've never noticed it, try watching a DVD with the sound muted. As soon as you lose the sound for some reason it becomes very obvious that everybody is moving too fast.

Once you start noticing it is very difficult to stop.

The use and reuse of a very memorable song/score in loads of movies .

Damn it create something new and special god knows ye are probably pissing away most of the money on needless special effects .

John murphy as a composer using " In the house in a heartbeat" so many times

Voodoomelon

In a scene with a telephone conversation, one person hangs up, resulting in a dial tone. Yet the other person continues to shout "hello? hello?!".

Slides on pistols not locking back on empty, wrecks my head.

The pause between the climax of the terrible suspense building music and the actual scary part. :mad:

Trying to watch an action film and the bloody sound effects are all over the place. Actors having conversation you can hardly hear so you turn the volume up and then BOOM - helicopter blows up, smashes into cars and the Brooklyn Bridge falls over again.

YES - hate when I'm watching a film late at night, have to turn down the action or music bits so as not to wake the house with the roaring volume, and then have to turn it straight back up so I can hear what the flip they're talking about!

Yep - we do resort to subtitles at home but they're not options at the cinema.

I hate this. Worst offender for me is the US Office dvds. I have the show downloaded and on a hard drive and the sound is normal. GF has all the box set DVDs, watching it in her house makes it sound like all the actors are on helium and really need to blow their noses, tis awful.

Thats usually not so much the movie as the broadcaster. They purposely transmit the ads at a higher volume than the movie or TV shows for example

People in historical movies all with perfect skin and teeth. And clothes that nod to historical fashion but are obviously make of modern fabrics with style details to suit current preferences.

That explains why every song in the end credits of a movie always seems to be an octave higher than it should be.

I hate it in movies when they are watching something on TV, when their show is over the immediately turn off the TV.

I've NEVER been able to just stop the thing by hitting some button.
I've never been able to gently prise the doors open with my fingertips.

AND I SURE AS SH!T have NEVER seen any little trapdoor in the ceiling for me to conveniently climb up into.

Also a bomb going off or a bloody petrol tanker detonating and people running and getting tumbled over a mere 15 feet from the inferno with not a scrap of shrapnel in their arses or all their hair burnt off.

I've opened elevator doors numerous times, you can do it using your hands, well probably not all but some at least.
