When a nameless character dies _immediately_ after getting shot or stabbed in the lower torso, but a main character can survive getting blown through the air by an explosion and get up without any broken bones or ruptured organs.
Reminds me of age of ultron where Wanda throws something at a robot but it still pulls the trigger later and when cap sticks his shield into one but ultron later possesses it
Dont see the Dwyane Johnson film; Rampage. 🎬 His macho ex SOF character gets shot with a pistol at point blank range. Runs around with a gun shot wound no 🚑 for 30min. 🤔
I also hate it when the "computer expert" can zoom into a picture and it's all pixelated... then "Ok, enhance that." and the picture de-pixels and it's totally clear enough to get the evidence they need to solve the crime. The only camera I know of that can refocus a picture is a Lytro Camera.
Well, it's not even a camera. It's just a picture, and you can't "enhance" a picture to get a clear image where you didn't have one before, so your complaint is even more valid than you might have known. Yes, there is a way to "interpolate" pixels when you enlarge an image, but all that does is "guess" at the correct colour to fill in by using the colour of the surrounding pixels as a guide, so all you end up with is a large, blurry image which becomes more and more blurry and indistinct the more you enlarge it.
@@melkiorwiseman5234 It would be funny as hell to have a movie where they ask for that only to have le tech dude sarcastically zoom in and it's pixelated af
nobody ever actually pays for their drinks. they just waltz into the bar, order a drink, take one sip & walk back out again w/o paying to end the scene
To be fair there was one old movie where this man was getting thrown out of the bar by the owner because he hit the guy next to him. As he was being thrown out the guy was holloring that he didn't pay for his drink yet!
Well to be fair some of them do it. But they never ask how much is they just slap a random bill and then leave. The bartenter never says "Hey you are short by 2 bucks buddy".
Or they slap a bill down and never get change whenever they pay for something. Items always cost $1,$5,$10,$20 or $100 apparently not talking about bar scenes really because you can just say they are tipping the change but still
Hmm... this reminds me of a certain female character that was just in a trilogy from a popular franchise now owned by a company that rhymes with... Smisney.
*The main protagonist NEVER getting hit while like 20+ men shoot at him* *Punching some several guys and them all being out cold from one punch* *Getting hit by a car driving 60+ MPH and just exiting to the car like nothing happened*

Very true, when I see people punching the particular bony parts of the body, I think about how much that hurts your fists. And your feet (I don't know if it's just me, I'm kinda skinny and weak)
Most of the cast being perfectly healthy, perfect hair with make up and having abs while their character eats junk and didn't train fkr his whole life.
I once read that in most cases you need to be pretty underweight for the abs to be that defined, so now when I see it I am like "someone get that boi a sandwich."
I hate how when people are thrown to jail or in a cage, the bars are way to far spread apart but the protagonist doesn't escape for some unfathomable reason
Sounds like the same logic in cartoons. I remember seeing a clip from an old Smurfs cartoon where a couple of Smurfs are in a cage at Gargamel's. The bars in the cage are far apart enough for them to squeeze through and escape!
People talk so fast on the phone. It’s like they already know the persons response before they even say it. It’s like “hello. Yes. I’ll be there.” In like 2 seconds
@Radioactive Light i have anxiety and can't do phone calls. And on zoom calls I notice all the sweat starting to coat everything and get all sticky. So I turn the fan on and nothing changes. I can only talk on the phone normally with people I really know well and spend a lot of time with. But in person it's nowhere near as bad.
I hate when for example a train is a few feet from crashing into a wall then the camera POV is changed and the train is suddenly 1000 feet away from the wall and this repeats a few times before it finally crashes or the people stop the train from crashing.
i like how in watchmen it was completely opposite, evil guy explained his evil plan then tells the heroes yea, i already executed the plan 20 mins ago, too late buddy
Unrealistic life after apocalyptic event. If the Walking Dead was real, half of the main cast would have been taken out by cholera before the end of season one.
To be fair, they do have that one season where an outside disease causes some issues But..yeah. barely any clean water, no vitamins, no safely prepared food, got asthma/diabetes/poor vision? You're dead in under a year
I don't understand why anyone would die of cholera. I mean there are very effective ways of disinfecting water and food and the only place there have been big cholera outbreaks since the microbe was discovered are in places where they either don't know about it or are being held in prison type conditions where there is no forage.
I know right, like come on, there is a big 10 foot heavy tree branch on the floor, like, can't you use that as a bat, no, ok just keep crawling backwards on the floor like an idiot
Stuff like this makes me feel i'm missing out on the joy i'm SUPPOSED to feel. Nowadays I can't watch most action-y stuff without becoming a mini critic by mainly noticing when they're clearly padding for a dramatic moment, or stuff happening because everyone basically stops to let someone or something cool happen. Either I have too high standards, or most actiony stuff is the same generally.
It's much harder to choreograph, but people who aren't trained get in each others way in a fight all the time, and that's the only way to legitimately let a hero 1 vs many to me.
I mean as a guy that has been in alot of fights because I am physically small and talk too much shit...i can honestly say until target is knocked down ive never seen multiple people try to attack at once unless it was to surround the person. If you arnt surrounding them then you are all just in everyone elses way
@@masterreaper115 Exactly, which is both why we don't see it in media (it's a nightmare to choreograph and preform) and why a hive mind would be deadly in melee, because it could actually coordinate those bodies.
1.) People getting out of a elevator through the hatch in the ceiling. You cannot get out. There is only a latch on the outside. 2.) People falling through the glass of a skylight. Skylights have laminated safety glass that prevents falling through. Especially true if it's a modern building.
Deaths and injuries involving elevators or escalators (revised). Incidents involving elevators and escalators kill about 30 and seriously injure about 17,000 people each year in the United States, according to data provided by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Consumer Product Safety Commission. There are literally videos here on youtube of people falling thru skylights. God you people are so fucking stupid it makes me sad.
@@TrickinNinja imagine calling someone stupid for not knowing how many people die and get injured by elevators and escalators, you are a really sad person if you think this is something people should get call stupid over.
There is this thing in movies where the main character or some of his/her friends discover something new and name it. But then suddenly everyone (even people who they have never met before) uses that name. That annoys me
Especially annoying when people stick to the genre of the show. Like a show about aliens? Average Joes will asume cryptid is alien and not bigfoot, werewolf, etc
@@zombiebunny17 That depends. On one hand, if the characters are set as not knowing anything about cryptids and yet instantly understand it / recognise it, yep, it's annoying. But on the other hand, in shows, the characters generally have to have some involvement with what's happening. Like, you won't have a main character who is obsessed with aliens in a werewolf/vampire/cryptid story, and vice versa. Although, I do admit, it could make for a fun show.
IKR?! In my school there aren’t cliques it’s just whoever you and your friends think are popular, *I* was even considered popular to some people so that says a lot.
No, it was pretty like that in my school years. It depends on where you grow up and the era of technology at the time. The most 'interesting' thing to EVER happen in my hometown was the Peach Blight that wiped out the town's source of livelihood over 100 years ago. We 'celebrate' it in August every year. Funny thing is, almost every year, it rains on that day at least a little.
I do it when I'm alone. It's... In a way it's to provoke a response. Anything beyond my sight is now suspicious, and I don't want to leave the clear zone and get closer to the noise. Maybe they give up hiding and try to rush me, at least I didn't walk around a dark corner and get strangled. Maybe they just want to steal and get out, so they leave as soon as possible because I heard them. Maybe it's just an animal, and it will come look at me or run away. I have zero chance of overpowering someone, so I'm not going to sneak into the dark to catch them, and I don't hide and call the cops every time I hear a noise.
Suppressor/silencer that turns gunshot into whisper. Most commercially available suppressors reduce the noise level to somewhere in the range of 130-150-ish dB for a supersonic cartridge and 117-130-ish dB for a subsonic cartridge. For reference on just how loud that is, an ambulance or police siren is typically between 100-140 dB. So this isn’t exactly the “whoosh” sound Hollywood depicts.
My moms is crappy sights/lasers/additions to really nice and expensive guns. She literally yelled about it during the showing of John Wick 3 and people voiced their agreement during the movie when she yelled it out. (Her words: “That gun is way to nice to have that sh-try of a sight!”)
Dumbest thing I've seen (and it has happened in several films): the assassin puts a suppressor on a REVOLVER. You can even see the gap between the barrel and cylinder. Nope, doesn't work like that and it won't do a thing to reduce the noise.
@@jonathanmillard4540 Okay, I know it's probably still a fire hazard because if there's a fire and you can't find the key, you're screwed. But it's possible that some houses still have that kind of lock. I don't know what they're called so google is severely unhelpful. I assumed that the first person was lying, but since there's more than 1 of those stories, I admit that I was probably wrong. Edit: I figured out the names of both kinds of locks. The ones that require a key on both sides are illegal where I live but not everywhere. I was, in fact, wrong.
"it's not possible" "well make it possible"/"it's going to have to be" then it works I swear to God it makes me want to swing on something it's so dumb
In detective series,when the villain is about to shoot the detective, you hear a gunshot and you see the dead villain fall on the ground, just to reveal the protagonist's partner with the gun drawn towards the villain.
Lol. Reminds me of a real life scenario I was involved in. Years ago I was driving/delivering on X-mas eve and my dispatcher told me I had to be at the customer before 7 pm because everyone was going home. I get there at 6:30 pm - the place is abandoned. Luckily, I was able to get in and drop the package and go home, myself. This was a regular place I went to so, after New Year's, when I started back up the guy at receiving asked me how I got in. I told him I crawled the A/C vents and we chuckled. Little did I know, a maintenance guy was nearby and over heard - and he had the local A/C company come out and check for any damage I may have caused. 😂 [How did I really get in? A janitor opened the door for me.]
You forgot to mention that the ducts look as if they were vacuumed just before the character entered. Shouldn't they be have sneezing fits from the dust?
@@annvictor9627 That part always makes me laugh. They're always cleaner than the floor at my office! Is there a tiny band of elves that walk through, cleaning the ducts every night? LOL.
Also police interrogations are nothing like real ones. Police establish rapport and try to minimize the crime to get the suspect to feel more comfortable admitting it. They don't just throw out threats the way they do. I mean they may use threats but there is a lot more going on.
@KayakAdv no, it's because no one posts the other 90%of interactions. No one cares about a traffic stop that was totally normal. Just like no one wants to watch action hero's brush their teeth. Doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
False. See Reid Interrogation Techniques, field interviews. Some cops, FBI agents, MI officers use different methods to flush out details or to extract truthful information. I've seen investigations, police use various ways. Confront a suspect, reason with them, be kind-sincere etc. This works to some people but not all. Hard core felons, cons know the courts, prison so it does not intimidate them.
It's so unrealistic how swanky and cool the interrogation rooms look like, especially in csi miami where the room is literally just 4 glass walls! I've been into job interviews that has more privacy!
Tbh, I think it'd be better if the villain did that on purpose so the hero could fall into a trap. Maybe like, after the "I tell u my very evil plan and how to stop it cuz you're gonna die muahaha" thing, but the villain lies about the how to stop it part, then the hero tries to stop it only for the evil plan destroy the very thing hero wanted to protect. Then the villain could shame and mock the hero who is absolutely devastated and not in the right state of mind bcuz ya know, hero literally just did the deed of the evil plan amd having a mental breakdown especially if the thing is very important to the hero. Then the villain could either finish off the hero, or mind break them to be the villain's assistant. Idk thought it'd be cool for the villain to win and the hero to lose for that one moment. No one, and I mean NO ONE would just say how to stop their evil plan. Keep it to yourself. So either they lie, or they just finish the hero right then and there. Srsly.
Kissing scenes. In the middle of a battlefield. Yeah, all of our friends are dying from their injuries but let us stop and kiss so I, a protagonist, can save the world. From a kiss.
According to my college history teacher, that's actually rather accurate. At times during war it wasn't so uncommon to find a couple of soldiers fucking behind a big bush because their adrenaline and testosterone are going so hard that they get that horny.
- That stupid "shing" noise whenever someone unsheathes a knife or sword. - Male protagonist can take a knife wound, a punch in the jaw, get thrown around like a ragdoll and beaten with a baseball bat but can still get up and fight - and win. Female protagonist gets pushed hard into a wall and falls and hits her head and can't get back up (or at most struggles for a solid thirty seconds before she does). - They always portray humans with wings flying wrong; the studio likes to show the wings broadside to the camera and flapping toward and away from the audience because it looks impressive, but this would only stall the flight and they should be falling. You never see this kind of wing beats from birds unless they are going to land - because they are stalling on purpose. - Adults trying to play teenagers, especially males. Teenage boys and fully grown men have different facial structures. You can see this phenomenon with Haley Joel Osment. As a young kid, he had a round baby-face. As a teen, it was much more angular. Now as an adult it has a squarish look. - Adding sound effects when they are not needed, especially the stock ones you hear all the time. I am currently watching a survival show. The person says it is very windy; you can hear the real wind, but post has added that "loud wind" sound effect for good measure. Or the Wilhelm scream. Eff the Wilhelm scream; I'm sick of hearing it.
Ugh, i hate the "shing" sound. Scraping, maybe, but shing is just annoying. Also other sound effects for swords, like *woosh* when it's being cut through the air.
Bad sound effects: Watching an Eastwood movie a few hours ago on tv...Lee Van Cleef shoots off his hat and it goes straight up (which is bad enough) and LVC keeps it in the air with bullets. Every time a bullet hits the hat there's a loud, metallic ricochet sound effect, and when the hat finally starts falling it sounds like a 1,000 pound bomb falling from a WWII bomber.
Reminds me of my film buff sister complaining about how clean the characters are in old movies (shouldn't that armor look as if it's been in a fight or two? Where's the sweat?).
The only time a female character looked realistic was Elizabeth (Keira Knightley) in the 2nd and 3rd Pirates of the Caribbean films. Her hair was a disaster and she was caked in dirt and sweat and it was all visible. I give them props for that. It made the scenes look more convincing. A pirate princess in real life would look like that. And she would dress in men's clothes even if it was the 19th century. I've read a book that talked briefly about female pirates and they certainly did not wear dresses. Why buy an expensive dress if you might get into a swordfight?
What comes across to the average person as "realism" can often be utter nonsense. This can be especially noticed when a film throws in attention to detail on guns. I don't understand the concept of adding details to increase realism and not, you know, making sure those details are realistic. Realism isn't everything, but competency is important.
I've noticed that in particular with dubbed anime, although at least one has managed to do it at least partially right, by having a character who is supposed to be adolescent spoken by a male whose voice seems to be still "breaking" and you can hear it when the character gets excited about something. Unfortunately, most of the dubs seem to use a woman for boys' voices, and they never actually sound like boys. I'd guess that's due to child labour laws.
@Malishka the great I mean they do get it kind of right. Maybe in your school not a lot of kids swear, but in my school I hear people swearing like crazy.
When the MC doesn't explain something. Character: Why did you do that? MC: *stares at them in sadness without saying or explaining their side of the story at all* Character: *Walks away* MC: *still continues to stare*

I'm disappointed that movie sword fights were not included. Swords are actually not that heavy to the extent that a child needs to drag it along the ground.
And how they just hit each other sword. Or how they turn around with some wild swings. Let’s not forget the renowned swords interlocked and they just push.
@@John.McMillan You need some explanation for that to let me let things like that go. But I'm willing to let you say 'magic/sci-fi nonsense' and then I'm like 'alright'. But I do question why goons wear armor that doesn't work against their most common enemy.
Christmas in New York city always features lots of snow. Like have you ever been in nyc in December? If it does snow it melts quickly. Most of the time we rarely see significant snow til January. Oh and don't forget the grotesque dirt snow piles all over the sidewalks.
That's true. The only time I've actually saw piles of dirt snow in New York City is when the news anchors are talking about the latest snow storm there on the news.
Movies/TV series where the story takes place in the middle ages(when personal higiene was practically non existent) and all of them have perfect white teeth, perfect clean hair, nails, clothes, etc. And the women are always perfectly shaved, ever their eyebrows are perfect. And men's facial hair never grows an inch after spending weeks/months sleeping in the woods, traveling on horse back.
Dentists broke up laughing when they saw "Saving Private Ryan" after hearing historians gush about its "historical accuracy." They said if the director wanted to be realistic, all of the main characters would be missing at tooth and their teeth would be hilariously crooked. Dentistry didn't modernize to what we know today until long after 1945.
I was just watching El Dorado (1960s western with John Wayne) where all the wimmin-folk (hardscrabble ranchers wives and daughters) looked like models who just came from an all day session at the beauty shop, and the daughter spends the entire film in tight-fitting jeans with her hair down. The film takes place in the 1860s I believe.
I once got conked in the head, kept conciousness, only a minor concussion. Man that put me on my ass for a week, it was brutal. So now that I think about it, none of those guys in Hollywood ever got knocked out or had a concussion.
Every movie I've seen is the same: the bad guy gets knocked out and is awake less than 30 seconds later with absolutely no side effects. Hahahahaha! That never happens in real life. I've heard of race car drivers have their careers put on hold for nine MONTHS because they took a beating to the head when they crashed even though they wear wearing a HELMET. The doctors were scared about the long term effects of the concussion and banned them from racing until their heads improved.
@@largol33t1 it's no joke, can't blame the doctors. Then again they do drive around 200 mph.. you got me wondering now if I should not have been driving my personal during that time. I mean it is what it is now, but at the same time we all need to eat.
@@ZhipFrag True. The doctors are doing their jobs. I'm just pointing out that in most cases, the doctor will ban you from doing any contact sports if you took a beating to the head. One example: at the Australian F1 race in the mid 1990s, Mika Hakkinen crashed his race car and banged his head on the side of the cockpit so violently that when the paramedics pulled him from the car, half his face was covered in blood. They were very worried that he wouldn't make it and warned his wife that it was a life threatening injury. Fortunately, he made a full recovery but the entire sport was shaken up by the incident. And worse, only two years later, a French driver, Olivier Panis had a massive crash in Canada. Several drivers, including Michael Schumacher and Damon Hill stopped their cars and refused to continue. The officials agreed the drivers had enough for the day and red flagged the race, ending it. I also crack up when a big very muscular guy gets hit on the head with a bottle and it doesn't affect him! I find scenes like that so unconvincing that it's hilarious.
There is an exception to that cliche. I recently watched It's A Wonderful Life this past Christmas and noticed that Jimmy Stewart's character was walking home in the pooring rain and he didn't catch a cold afterwards! However in a later scene his daughter Zuzu caught a cold because she forgot to button up her coat when she was coming home from school! I've seen this movie over hundreds of times and now I realize how unrealistic Zuzu getting a mild cold is!
I have bad allergies and if it's cold my nose will immediately start running. So I don't really know if that's as relevant as the rain but that's some perspective kind of.
@@melissacooper4282 We don't really know how Zuzu's immune system was compared to George's, but even more damning could be that George *jumped in the freezing river to save Clarence* and George still didn't get a cold.
Along with not working at a really well-paying job, and sometimes (often) having small children, their house is always spotlessly clean and organized. The palm cut scenes always get me, too.
The wife character that only exists as an obstacle to the plot. "I know you're a super hero that is the only one who can stop the evil plan and save millions of lives but what about your family? My brain can't process the impact of my actions beyond this kitchen so this is reasonable conflict to me!!!" It's not like cop/army wives don't exist. So annoying.
I would say the fact that everyone believes obviously fake lies with no proof and ask the protagonist for proof and even though the proof is very believable they don’t believe it, not until the end of the movie.. But that actually happens. .-.
Started watching a show. First episode, 3 kidnapped girls in a semi, making a bunch of noise, kindnapper gets out and kneels by one the other two said was dead, and he manages to taze all three of them one at a time AFTER being stabbed with a comb. Seriously, why did the other two not coldclock him in the back of the head while he was distracted. This show should have been over before it started.

My co-worker bought his daughter a car for her 16th and I said, "$20 says she takes out a mailbox in a month." 2 weeks later she took out not one, not two but... **drum roll** SIX! Granted, they were grouped in a batch but, that makes them easier to see - if you're actually looking at the road and not your phone. [*I was forced to buy my first car so, I have a 'thing' about parents buying their kids cars. "Because they won't appreciate them", as my mom used to say.]
It always confused me how the villain/protagonist is about to kill their rival but then stops just to have an everyday talk for some reason and they only die at the end of the movie
The "quirky girl" trope that I see in like 90% of disney channel 2000-2010 movies. Female protagonist goes to new school. Immediately gets bullied by popular girl wearing pink. Most popular guy in school falls in love with her. Like no. From my experiences with meeting new girls in my school, everyone is usually really nice and helpful to them, showing them around the school, and after a while lots of people become friends with them. I don't understand why movies like high school musical, camp rock, radio rebel, etc decided _oh yeah lets do the quirky girl thing again people will like that._
Every single character in teen sitcoms are extroverts, always in a loud and upbeat mood, and do crazy stuff that no 16 year old in real life can do or know how to do perfectly and in many situations these characters dont even act like kids For example They basically go through absolute chaos and adventure and do stuff like that all the time, especially in Rockstar's game called bully Even the nerds and recluses go through the chaos and comedy and dont act like kids or introverts Basically they imply that being a teen is always fun and funny and that they spend 90% of their free time dating, saving the world or robbing a bank, and playing a huge prank on a certain "faction" like preps or jocks instead of binging tiktok or doing homework or playing valorant

Eah, you can justify it with something in universe and I'll let you have it. But you better damn well give me a justification for it. Also: I want a villain to pull the same BS, for the same reason, citing they were friends with all the lesser 'mini-bosses' defeated along the way. It'd be a heck of a surprise.
When someone asks a question to main character in disguise something like "Where you from?" or "What are you doing?" and the main character acts like they just asked them to solve unified field theory.
Punching glass. The only time I've seen this one turn out reallistically (as in, y'know, shredding you hand's skin) was in Karate Kid. Every single other movie (at least that I remember) has people breaking car windows barehanded or jumping through glass doors and not get a single scratch on them.
Ironically, in the Karate Kid II, Miyagi's rival Kreese tried to punch him and bloodied up his hands very badly when he dodged the punches and Kreese slammed through a car window. That is the only time I've ever seem a movie depict a hand injury realistically.
@@masterreaper115 most likely. I've broken two car windows in my life, once on purpose, the other on accident. First one I parked too close to a dumpster, you know the handles garbage trucks latch onto? I was pushing into it when I was backing up, my car tilted 20 degrees before the window shattered. That's thousands of pounds of force. Second time, it took several big rocks to break the same window; I ended up locking everything including my phone in that car ah ha. Point it it takes a lot, to successfully punch out a window would take hundreds upon hundreds of pounds of force to do
When someone picks up a gun for the first time and is a perfect shot. That's the equivalent of someone jumping onto a bicycle for the first time and being able to ride it.
Dropping a damn glass item when someone gets shocking/bad news. Who does that? Also, “The Walking Dead”. By this time, the “illness” would have cycled through the levels of humanity to the point where there would be very few walkers left. After all, they are still dead, decomposing bodies. The world would stink like hell, but the zombie threat would be under control, because they now know to terminate the bodies if those who die. Zombies aren’t eternal; their bodies decay. Yet the world is still coated with them.
I don't know about the glass thing but I've dropped the morning newspaper once on the table when I heard the shocking news on the radio that George Harrison was stabbed!
The depiction of acid and how it can dissolve someone in seconds, meanwhile its just stored in plain glass jars. Also acids are usually clear or yellow, not green
They were accurate about the color of acid in the movie Thinner. Joe Montena's character had supposedly splashed "acid" in the gypsy girl's face but it was really water. But then when he got the real acid out it looked just like water!
I hate it when I see a TV show/Movie where somebody is typing on a computer and by the position of their hands it's obvious they don't actually know how to type at all... yet they are the "computer expert" that can type 400 wpm without properly typing. I see stuff like that and remember on The Truman Show where the bus driver couldn't drive a bus because they're really just an actor.
I once saw someone in a movie "playing" the violin but I knew that they were faking it because the man was sawing his bow all over the place! I know this because I took violin lessons in school.
Dude I would've just shot him right then and there. Fights ain't fair ya know. Unless it's a fighting sport or smth but actual fights? Sometimes, you gotta play dirty. Idk if that's how real fights work doe since I've never physically fought someone-
@@baileyrandall3088 Everyone's favorite example of this is the moment when Indiana Jones shoots the huge swordsman instead of actually getting into a swordfight with him. Brilliant writing, right? Except the scene wasn't written that way. Indy was supposed to fight the guy with his sword. But Harrison Ford was sick as a dog that day, and wasn't physically able to do a fight scene. So he said, "I'm wearing a gun in a holster. Why don't I just shoot him?" That never occurred to the scriptwriter.
I went to a private high school school and we had free periods because we had 7-8 hours of homework a night so we needed the study hall and the free period both of which we were allowed to spend pretty much anywhere on campus.

Nobody hides in a normal place.. Basically this. Your being chased by someone with a knife, you don't defend yourself at all, and just scream and run into some closed off shed with the door half closed, and then make yourself be quiet in the corner, hoping that you won't be found. Next minute, person with a knife is wandering around the shed while your breathing loudly, hoping you won't be found. your found, usually you either escape or die, or something like that. gets me thinking, "damn, that person is stupid af"
Sitcoms piss me off. There are 13 million people who play D&D, and it's about a 5 second google search to figure out enough terminology about it to last for a one-liner. Even still, the "mega-nerd" of the episode, time after time, professes their love for D&D and then immediately after says something like "I'm a 40th level dungeon master." The only thing about the scene more offensive than the portrayal of D&D players is the mistakes in what one of them might say. Writers, do your job correctly for once and give it a google.
Every single character in teen sitcoms are extroverts, always in a loud and upbeat mood, and do crazy stuff that no 16 year old in real life can do or know how to do perfectly and in many situations these characters dont even act like kids For example in the rockstar game bully you have a bike fight with greasers even though they werent that popular in 2006 and in buffy the vampire slayer, well, slaying vampires and even though thats the point of the show, buffy didnt really get the cops and detectives to help her but i dont know i never watched the show They basically go through absolute chaos and adventure and do stuff like that all the time, especially in Rockstar's game called bully Even the nerds and recluses go through the chaos and comedy and dont act like kids or introverts Basically they imply that being a teen is always fun and funny and that they spend 90% of their free time dating, saving the world or robbing a bank, and playing a huge prank on a certain "faction" like preps or jocks instead of binging tiktok or doing homework or playing valorant Recently its not just sitcoms
High heels on action girls. A detail I absolutely loved in Alias: when Sydney was on a mission where she was dressed up and she got into a foot chase, the shoes immediately came off. She wasted precisely zero time struggling with her high heels.
If the heels aren't super long spikes, it can be done. To prepare for the scene in Jurassic World where Claire baits the Tyrannosaurus with a flare, Bryce Howard spent time practicing running in high heels. She said it is very difficult but it can be done if the heels aren't ridiculously high.

How mornings are portrayed in general. It usually is bright sunny with a massive breakfast, everyone clearly awake and leisurely taking their time. My mornings often used to start before the sun was even up with everyone groggy if not just half asleep, with everyone rushing to quickly eat before the train arrives, since it is actually faster than going by car being stuck in trafic.
A woman can be smart without being condescending. A woman can be competent without men around her being bland or dumb. A woman can be strong and feminine. A woman can have character flaws, it is ok if she sucks at some things. A woman isn't always "naturally gifted" and showing a woman making it through hard work is the best thing you could do to teach little girls if you are bad, keep trying and you'll get better. Mary Sues hurt little girls and the obvious pandering insults women. Someone please, please, tell Hollywood this.
As a train driver, it really bothers me, how fast trains are stopped more than often. A freight train with like 3000 tons just stops like a normal truck. No! No it doesn't! If you are on a train at full speed and you see a person or obstacle on the rails, you won't come to a full stop soon enough.
Also, movies that treat trains as unstoppable forces of nature that will destroy anything you park on their tracks and continue on their way without a scratch, instead of derailing and possibly injuring or killing people. I can think of two movies off the top of my head (Blue Thunder and Back to the Future III) in which a train is used to conveniently destroy a vehicle with no consequences whatsoever for the person responsible for putting it on the tracks. (In Back to the Future, it's done accidentally, but in Blue Thunder, the responsible character deliberately parks a helicopter on the tracks because he wants to destroy it. And he's a cop who really should know better.) Movies that get this right: The Fugitive and Super 8.

No one said about when someone is forging a sword they always dip the hot metal into water before the actual forging is done, which is stupid because that is what actually hardens the steel. Not to mention that they usually only quench the tip rather than the whole thing. Or when they cast a weapon but then say that it was forged. Or even worse than that is when they cast a weapon then you see them beating on it with a hammer... that would never happen.
This would only make sense if they had a condition (hear me out I know you said for no reason but I just need to make this point) like for example; they are still learning to walk after an accident, they had a lasting injury that messed up their joints/tendons or even having unevenly sized legs. But yea, it is really annoying.
In a couple of Halloween movies there were groups of men willing to go and kill Michael in a mob mentality. The kid who fought against Jason in F13 VIII on the roof. The telekinetic girl in F13 VII tore off Jason's mask. There were times when the heroine hit the killer with a lamp in one or two Scream movies.

Fifth Element handled the knock-out trope really well. Dallas gets bonked and falls down, moments later is getting up clutching his head and is furious. It didn't knock him out, it debilitated him for a few moments.

Then again I think that modern grenades typically have something to stop the repinning bit from giving the user a sudden traumatic event.
You can actually do it, it’s basic military training. The pin is just a safety that prevents the ejection of the spoon, that would trigger the grenade. As long as you hold the spoon in place, you’re fine.
@@John.McMillan no. Its basic training for any branch of military. If you are holding a grenade and pull the pin, aslong as you DONT let the spoon pop off (that piece that flies 50 ft away in every movie) you can 100% of the time put that pin back in and everything is fine. Its like if you are holding a piece of paper to a bulletin board, press your hand against it and take the push pin out..can you put the pushpin back in? yes.

How villains and heroes all so suddenly have powers and have to save or destroy the world. Okay, so you're just a normal civilian running some errands then you run into a dark alleyway and then PLOT TWIST the exit is blocked and a radioactive spider bites you and you now have magical powers.

One of my big ones is when the villain threatens the protag with some kind of creepy crawly-type of creature and the second the animal is placed on the floor it starts immediately moving with killer intent towards the protag. A scorpion placed on the ground 12 feet away from you isnt gonna leap for your jugular. Something being scary doesn't mean its murderous and evil and out to kill you.
Suppressors and also firearms in general. It is so cringe to see actors handle firearms in such a ridiculous way. Also sick of hearing the racking of firearms way more than you realistically should.
Tbh I don’t find gun silencers in movies that annoying, like they could just be using subsonic ammo and the director knew it would ruin pace to explain why it’s quiet. What annoys me though is “oh so you just burned down an orphanage, killed my friends, and, put the milk in first. Yea you can join our group”
Star wars: The last jedi. Why, in the name of god is fuel such a concern. If we use the laws of physics there should be no resistance in space. So why do the ships spiral backwards when they run out of fuel? Why dont they try to accelerate to terminal velocity and just shut off their engines so that they continue?
They didn't spiral backwards. They stopped accelerating forward while the First Order continued accelerating. It would be like if your car maxed out at 60 mph and someone chasing you kept speeding up to 70 mph. But, with no outside reference, it appears as though the non-accelerating ships are slowing down.
No one ever "stop drop and roll" when they catch on fire. CPR patients never puke unless they were saved from drowning and then it's only a small mouthful of water. And this applies to TV shows too: The characters talk about a great work of literature that the script writer(s) has obviously never read. Technobabble that is more babble than techno. Female characters with no personality beyond love interest. (Bugs me with male characters too, but it's much rarer.) Incidentally, an episode of Star Wars Rebels revealed that it's not that Stormtroopers have bad aim. Jedi are just very good at ducking. Yeah, "The Force" explains everything.

I also hate it when the "computer expert" can zoom into a picture and it's all pixelated... then "Ok, enhance that." and the picture de-pixels and it's totally clear enough to get the evidence they need to solve the crime. The only camera I know of that can refocus a picture is a Lytro Camera.
Well, it's not even a camera. It's just a picture, and you can't "enhance" a picture to get a clear image where you didn't have one before, so your complaint is even more valid than you might have known.
Yes, there is a way to "interpolate" pixels when you enlarge an image, but all that does is "guess" at the correct colour to fill in by using the colour of the surrounding pixels as a guide, so all you end up with is a large, blurry image which becomes more and more blurry and indistinct the more you enlarge it.

nobody ever actually pays for their drinks. they just waltz into the bar, order a drink, take one sip & walk back out again w/o paying to end the scene

Well to be fair some of them do it. But they never ask how much is they just slap a random bill and then leave. The bartenter never says "Hey you are short by 2 bucks buddy".

I hate how when people are thrown to jail or in a cage, the bars are way to far spread apart but the protagonist doesn't escape for some unfathomable reason
Sounds like the same logic in cartoons. I remember seeing a clip from an old Smurfs cartoon where a couple of Smurfs are in a cage at Gargamel's. The bars in the cage are far apart enough for them to squeeze through and escape!
That is one of the only thing I like about the movie Catwoman. She literally sees this and steps through it.
Um, probably because if they escape, they mostly get shoot at if the the cage bar were far part.
Maybe it's a prop-safety thing
People talk so fast on the phone. It’s like they already know the persons response before they even say it. It’s like “hello. Yes. I’ll be there.” In like 2 seconds

That is normally how that goes.
Of course they were expecting the call.
I knew someone that did that on the phone. Then he would repeat the same message about 20 times!

That moment where you go "nobody is that stupid", yes, people are that stupid.
I do it when I'm alone. It's... In a way it's to provoke a response. Anything beyond my sight is now suspicious, and I don't want to leave the clear zone and get closer to the noise. Maybe they give up hiding and try to rush me, at least I didn't walk around a dark corner and get strangled. Maybe they just want to steal and get out, so they leave as soon as possible because I heard them. Maybe it's just an animal, and it will come look at me or run away.

Suppressor/silencer that turns gunshot into whisper. Most commercially available suppressors reduce the noise level to somewhere in the range of 130-150-ish dB for a supersonic cartridge and 117-130-ish dB for a subsonic cartridge. For reference on just how loud that is, an ambulance or police siren is typically between 100-140 dB. So this isn’t exactly the “whoosh” sound Hollywood depicts.

This was a regular place I went to so, after New Year's, when I started back up the guy at receiving asked me how I got in.
I told him I crawled the A/C vents and we chuckled.
Little did I know, a maintenance guy was nearby and over heard - and he had the local A/C company come out and check for any damage I may have caused. 😂
[How did I really get in? A janitor opened the door for me.]
How small would someone have to be to avoid damage in an air duct? (Feel free to exceed realistic human sizes.)
You forgot to mention that the ducts look as if they were vacuumed just before the character entered. Shouldn't they be have sneezing fits from the dust?

Also police interrogations are nothing like real ones. Police establish rapport and try to minimize the crime to get the suspect to feel more comfortable admitting it. They don't just throw out threats the way they do. I mean they may use threats but there is a lot more going on.
@KayakAdv no, it's because no one posts the other 90%of interactions. No one cares about a traffic stop that was totally normal.
Just like no one wants to watch action hero's brush their teeth. Doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
Also the cops sometimes rough up the suspect to get him to confess and the cops get by with it. In real life the cops would've gotten fired for that!
False. See Reid Interrogation Techniques, field interviews. Some cops, FBI agents, MI officers use different methods to flush out details or to extract truthful information. I've seen investigations, police use various ways. Confront a suspect, reason with them, be kind-sincere etc. This works to some people but not all. Hard core felons, cons know the courts, prison so it does not intimidate them.
It's so unrealistic how swanky and cool the interrogation rooms look like, especially in csi miami where the room is literally just 4 glass walls! I've been into job interviews that has more privacy!
When the bad guy can kill the good guy but instead starts monologuing and allows the protagonist to escape
James bond films have entered the chat.
Tbh, I think it'd be better if the villain did that on purpose so the hero could fall into a trap. Maybe like, after the "I tell u my very evil plan and how to stop it cuz you're gonna die muahaha" thing, but the villain lies about the how to stop it part, then the hero tries to stop it only for the evil plan destroy the very thing hero wanted to protect. Then the villain could shame and mock the hero who is absolutely devastated and not in the right state of mind bcuz ya know, hero literally just did the deed of the evil plan amd having a mental breakdown especially if the thing is very important to the hero. Then the villain could either finish off the hero, or mind break them to be the villain's assistant. Idk thought it'd be cool for the villain to win and the hero to lose for that one moment. No one, and I mean NO ONE would just say how to stop their evil plan. Keep it to yourself. So either they lie, or they just finish the hero right then and there. Srsly.
@@baileyrandall3088 Agreeedddd
I want to see more good movies where the villain wins and the hero loses.
Kissing scenes. In the middle of a battlefield. Yeah, all of our friends are dying from their injuries but let us stop and kiss so I, a protagonist, can save the world. From a kiss.
“My comrades are dying, but dang I want those sweet lips”
According to my college history teacher, that's actually rather accurate. At times during war it wasn't so uncommon to find a couple of soldiers fucking behind a big bush because their adrenaline and testosterone are going so hard that they get that horny.
- That stupid "shing" noise whenever someone unsheathes a knife or sword.
- Male protagonist can take a knife wound, a punch in the jaw, get thrown around like a ragdoll and beaten with a baseball bat but can still get up and fight - and win. Female protagonist gets pushed hard into a wall and falls and hits her head and can't get back up (or at most struggles for a solid thirty seconds before she does).
- They always portray humans with wings flying wrong; the studio likes to show the wings broadside to the camera and flapping toward and away from the audience because it looks impressive, but this would only stall the flight and they should be falling. You never see this kind of wing beats from birds unless they are going to land - because they are stalling on purpose.
- Adults trying to play teenagers, especially males. Teenage boys and fully grown men have different facial structures. You can see this phenomenon with Haley Joel Osment. As a young kid, he had a round baby-face. As a teen, it was much more angular. Now as an adult it has a squarish look.
- Adding sound effects when they are not needed, especially the stock ones you hear all the time. I am currently watching a survival show. The person says it is very windy; you can hear the real wind, but post has added that "loud wind" sound effect for good measure. Or the Wilhelm scream. Eff the Wilhelm scream; I'm sick of hearing it.
Ugh, i hate the "shing" sound. Scraping, maybe, but shing is just annoying. Also other sound effects for swords, like *woosh* when it's being cut through the air.
The Willhelm scream just pisses me off when I hear I haye when they use that.
Bad sound effects: Watching an Eastwood movie a few hours ago on tv...Lee Van Cleef shoots off his hat and it goes straight up (which is bad enough) and LVC keeps it in the air with bullets. Every time a bullet hits the hat there's a loud, metallic ricochet sound effect, and when the hat finally starts falling it sounds like a 1,000 pound bomb falling from a WWII bomber.
When the characters wake up and get out of bed with their makeup on and hair curled, or all done up.
Reminds me of my film buff sister complaining about how clean the characters are in old movies (shouldn't that armor look as if it's been in a fight or two? Where's the sweat?).
The only time a female character looked realistic was Elizabeth (Keira Knightley) in the 2nd and 3rd Pirates of the Caribbean films. Her hair was a disaster and she was caked in dirt and sweat and it was all visible. I give them props for that. It made the scenes look more convincing. A pirate princess in real life would look like that. And she would dress in men's clothes even if it was the 19th century. I've read a book that talked briefly about female pirates and they certainly did not wear dresses. Why buy an expensive dress if you might get into a swordfight?
In westerns. I would notice the ladies with perfect makeup and hair. And the men would be sweaty. And dusty. In some western movies.
What comes across to the average person as "realism" can often be utter nonsense. This can be especially noticed when a film throws in attention to detail on guns. I don't understand the concept of adding details to increase realism and not, you know, making sure those details are realistic. Realism isn't everything, but competency is important.
My biggest pet peeve in animated works is when characters that are supposed to be prepubescent sound like adults.
I've noticed that in particular with dubbed anime, although at least one has managed to do it at least partially right, by having a character who is supposed to be adolescent spoken by a male whose voice seems to be still "breaking" and you can hear it when the character gets excited about something.
Unfortunately, most of the dubs seem to use a woman for boys' voices, and they never actually sound like boys. I'd guess that's due to child labour laws.

Actually, they theorize this is a pretty accurate representation of what it might look like at warp speed
@@gadgetsage I don't understand much in this world but idk I would think that light (for eyesight purposes) would be very weird at warp speed and you probably wouldn't be able to see much of anything because you're going immeasurably faster than light.

@@Trollamollex except you'd be inside the warp bubble so normal physics would apply and the light as it hits the outside of the warp bubble would behave more or less normally once it transitions inside of it of course mine is just a guess as well
I'm disappointed that movie sword fights were not included. Swords are actually not that heavy to the extent that a child needs to drag it along the ground.

Christmas in New York city always features lots of snow. Like have you ever been in nyc in December? If it does snow it melts quickly. Most of the time we rarely see significant snow til January. Oh and don't forget the grotesque dirt snow piles all over the sidewalks.

Movies/TV series where the story takes place in the middle ages(when personal higiene was practically non existent) and all of them have perfect white teeth, perfect clean hair, nails, clothes, etc. And the women are always perfectly shaved, ever their eyebrows are perfect. And men's facial hair never grows an inch after spending weeks/months sleeping in the woods, traveling on horse back.
Dentists broke up laughing when they saw "Saving Private Ryan" after hearing historians gush about its "historical accuracy." They said if the director wanted to be realistic, all of the main characters would be missing at tooth and their teeth would be hilariously crooked. Dentistry didn't modernize to what we know today until long after 1945.
I was just watching El Dorado (1960s western with John Wayne) where all the wimmin-folk (hardscrabble ranchers wives and daughters) looked like models who just came from an all day session at the beauty shop, and the daughter spends the entire film in tight-fitting jeans with her hair down. The film takes place in the 1860s I believe.
I once got conked in the head, kept conciousness, only a minor concussion. Man that put me on my ass for a week, it was brutal. So now that I think about it, none of those guys in Hollywood ever got knocked out or had a concussion.
Every movie I've seen is the same: the bad guy gets knocked out and is awake less than 30 seconds later with absolutely no side effects. Hahahahaha! That never happens in real life. I've heard of race car drivers have their careers put on hold for nine MONTHS because they took a beating to the head when they crashed even though they wear wearing a HELMET. The doctors were scared about the long term effects of the concussion and banned them from racing until their heads improved.
@@largol33t1 it's no joke, can't blame the doctors. Then again they do drive around 200 mph.. you got me wondering now if I should not have been driving my personal during that time. I mean it is what it is now, but at the same time we all need to eat.
@@ZhipFrag True. The doctors are doing their jobs. I'm just pointing out that in most cases, the doctor will ban you from doing any contact sports if you took a beating to the head. One example: at the Australian F1 race in the mid 1990s, Mika Hakkinen crashed his race car and banged his head on the side of the cockpit so violently that when the paramedics pulled him from the car, half his face was covered in blood. They were very worried that he wouldn't make it and warned his wife that it was a life threatening injury. Fortunately, he made a full recovery but the entire sport was shaken up by the incident. And worse, only two years later, a French driver, Olivier Panis had a massive crash in Canada. Several drivers, including Michael Schumacher and Damon Hill stopped their cars and refused to continue. The officials agreed the drivers had enough for the day and red flagged the race, ending it.
I also crack up when a big very muscular guy gets hit on the head with a bottle and it doesn't affect him! I find scenes like that so unconvincing that it's hilarious.
Their hair is so full of product it's effectively armor.
someone is caught in the rain and within minutes has a cold.

There is an exception to that cliche. I recently watched It's A Wonderful Life this past Christmas and noticed that Jimmy Stewart's character was walking home in the pooring rain and he didn't catch a cold afterwards! However in a later scene his daughter Zuzu caught a cold because she forgot to button up her coat when she was coming home from school! I've seen this movie over hundreds of times and now I realize how unrealistic Zuzu getting a mild cold is!
I have bad allergies and if it's cold my nose will immediately start running. So I don't really know if that's as relevant as the rain but that's some perspective kind of.
@@melissacooper4282 We don't really know how Zuzu's immune system was compared to George's, but even more damning could be that George *jumped in the freezing river to save Clarence* and George still didn't get a cold.
When the main character starts attacking and killing the weak enemies they don't run away
Along with not working at a really well-paying job, and sometimes (often) having small children, their house is always spotlessly clean and organized.
The palm cut scenes always get me, too.
No smoke on fire scenes or any coughing. Glass that shatters like crystal.
The wife character that only exists as an obstacle to the plot. "I know you're a super hero that is the only one who can stop the evil plan and save millions of lives but what about your family? My brain can't process the impact of my actions beyond this kitchen so this is reasonable conflict to me!!!" It's not like cop/army wives don't exist. So annoying.
I would say the fact that everyone believes obviously fake lies with no proof and ask the protagonist for proof and even though the proof is very believable they don’t believe it, not until the end of the movie.. But that actually happens. .-.

The "quirky girl" trope that I see in like 90% of disney channel 2000-2010 movies. Female protagonist goes to new school. Immediately gets bullied by popular girl wearing pink. Most popular guy in school falls in love with her. Like no. From my experiences with meeting new girls in my school, everyone is usually really nice and helpful to them, showing them around the school, and after a while lots of people become friends with them. I don't understand why movies like high school musical, camp rock, radio rebel, etc decided _oh yeah lets do the quirky girl thing again people will like that._

Punching glass. The only time I've seen this one turn out reallistically (as in, y'know, shredding you hand's skin) was in Karate Kid. Every single other movie (at least that I remember) has people breaking car windows barehanded or jumping through glass doors and not get a single scratch on them.
They let Kiefer Sutherland break a van door window in the show 24 with a crowbar. Actually took him a few wacks. I was surprised.
Ive punched out a car window with 0 damage to me before, maybe i was just super lucky
Ironically, in the Karate Kid II, Miyagi's rival Kreese tried to punch him and bloodied up his hands very badly when he dodged the punches and Kreese slammed through a car window. That is the only time I've ever seem a movie depict a hand injury realistically.

Sitcoms piss me off. There are 13 million people who play D&D, and it's about a 5 second google search to figure out enough terminology about it to last for a one-liner. Even still, the "mega-nerd" of the episode, time after time, professes their love for D&D and then immediately after says something like "I'm a 40th level dungeon master." The only thing about the scene more offensive than the portrayal of D&D players is the mistakes in what one of them might say. Writers, do your job correctly for once and give it a google.

High heels on action girls. A detail I absolutely loved in Alias: when Sydney was on a mission where she was dressed up and she got into a foot chase, the shoes immediately came off. She wasted precisely zero time struggling with her high heels.
If the heels aren't super long spikes, it can be done. To prepare for the scene in Jurassic World where Claire baits the Tyrannosaurus with a flare, Bryce Howard spent time practicing running in high heels. She said it is very difficult but it can be done if the heels aren't ridiculously high.

As a train driver, it really bothers me, how fast trains are stopped more than often. A freight train with like 3000 tons just stops like a normal truck. No! No it doesn't! If you are on a train at full speed and you see a person or obstacle on the rails, you won't come to a full stop soon enough.
I grew up near a railroad. They always told us that the train *will not stop* if you're dicking around on the tracks.
@@ianfinrir8724 I mean, it wont, but it also physically can't. I'm with both of you on this.
Also, movies that treat trains as unstoppable forces of nature that will destroy anything you park on their tracks and continue on their way without a scratch, instead of derailing and possibly injuring or killing people. I can think of two movies off the top of my head (Blue Thunder and Back to the Future III) in which a train is used to conveniently destroy a vehicle with no consequences whatsoever for the person responsible for putting it on the tracks. (In Back to the Future, it's done accidentally, but in Blue Thunder, the responsible character deliberately parks a helicopter on the tracks because he wants to destroy it. And he's a cop who really should know better.)
Movies that get this right: The Fugitive and Super 8.
A city girl moves in with her uncle to the country and the girl hates horses and doesn't know anything about them but 2 seconds later she is galloping a wild horse bareback that she just met and "no one else can ride that horse" but she can
No one said about when someone is forging a sword they always dip the hot metal into water before the actual forging is done, which is stupid because that is what actually hardens the steel. Not to mention that they usually only quench the tip rather than the whole thing. Or when they cast a weapon but then say that it was forged. Or even worse than that is when they cast a weapon then you see them beating on it with a hammer... that would never happen.
its almost like it wasnt an art form used enmasse for like 50 century's to make art, weapons, armor and tools that is still practiced to this very day
The character is getting away from the killer and they suddenly trip for not damn reason
This would only make sense if they had a condition (hear me out I know you said for no reason but I just need to make this point) like for example; they are still learning to walk after an accident, they had a lasting injury that messed up their joints/tendons or even having unevenly sized legs. But yea, it is really annoying.
There is a possibility you could trip and fall but most normal people would hurry and get back up again instead of laying there like an idiot.
My dad noticed this. Mostly if it's a female character running from a monster or something.
No one ever attempts to defend themselves in horror movies.
No one except the character that's meant to be the "last girl" trope
But hey, Laurie is cool
In a couple of Halloween movies there were groups of men willing to go and kill Michael in a mob mentality.
The kid who fought against Jason in F13 VIII on the roof.
The telekinetic girl in F13 VII tore off Jason's mask.
There were times when the heroine hit the killer with a lamp in one or two Scream movies.
The Nightmare on Elm Street: the Dream Masters had several scenes of defense.
Tremors was all about defense.
Lots of defense in the Resident Evil movies.
Black Friday half the staff went out to defend the store.
@@JackOfAllRAIDs well tbf, sorta unfair to include Resident Evil, since the series was always about police officers with guns defending against zombies
If that's the case might aswell include series like Evil Dead
@@mirzapramudya1580 Keep in mind that most of those police officers died anyway, guns or not. Also, ever notice that not one officer carried a grenade?
@@JackOfAllRAIDs they dont carry frags but they could have flashbangs and gas nades and perhaps molotovs
To go along with 5:42, EVERY SINGLE PERSON who pours a cup of coffee in tv/movies immediately starts drinking it. I don’t know the stats on coffee preferences, but I’ve never seen every single person in a room drink black coffee.
When someone goes to Text their 'Friend' and its the first message theyve ever sent to that 'Friend' with no previous texts before that.
Remember seeing a Movie where the Main character was texting his GF and it actually had previous text messages like they had talked earlier that day and was blown away
In most high school movies no one has any homework. They just go to parties to get drunk and gossip. Heck, I probably went to three parties in all four years of high school, no alcohol, and I did homework all the time and almost never saw any friends outside of school.
When the hacker pounds on the keyboard and says some bs thing like accessing "the mainframe"
It's a MA'AM FAME and it demands to be penetrated... and hacking is an occult technique no nonmember is allowed to know the secrets...
Fifth Element handled the knock-out trope really well. Dallas gets bonked and falls down, moments later is getting up clutching his head and is furious. It didn't knock him out, it debilitated him for a few moments. As someone who has banged my head on plenty of objects in my day, the initial reaction is one of disability of all things followed by a pure and vengeful anger.
Putting the pin back in a grenade after it's pulled.
Wtf???
That’s a thing in movies?????
That can be done IRL as long as the lever/spoon isn't released.
@@ianfinrir8724 Ehhhhh, Its possible, But its like cooking a grenade, Lets say you KNOW the fuse is supposed to be 5 seconds, You need to act like its 3 seconds, The fuse can burn off early, And repinning has a *very* slight chance of the fuse being tripped when you release the lever.
Then again I think that modern grenades typically have something to stop the repinning bit from giving the user a sudden traumatic event.
You can actually do it, it’s basic military training. The pin is just a safety that prevents the ejection of the spoon, that would trigger the grenade. As long as you hold the spoon in place, you’re fine.
@@John.McMillan no. Its basic training for any branch of military. If you are holding a grenade and pull the pin, aslong as you DONT let the spoon pop off (that piece that flies 50 ft away in every movie) you can 100% of the time put that pin back in and everything is fine. Its like if you are holding a piece of paper to a bulletin board, press your hand against it and take the push pin out..can you put the pushpin back in? yes.
The lead protagonist fluids contain mostly of alcohol whereas his nutrition consists of leftover pizza and ramen noodles, yet he still maintains a fitness model physique and Olympic level athleticism
How villains and heroes all so suddenly have powers and have to save or destroy the world.
Okay, so you're just a normal civilian running some errands then you run into a dark alleyway and then PLOT TWIST the exit is blocked and a radioactive spider bites you and you now have magical powers.
What movie or show was it where a spider got biten by a radioactive man and gained the powers of one man - but, ranged down for size, the powers actually make the spider weaker? 😂
One of my big ones is when the villain threatens the protag with some kind of creepy crawly-type of creature and the second the animal is placed on the floor it starts immediately moving with killer intent towards the protag. A scorpion placed on the ground 12 feet away from you isnt gonna leap for your jugular. Something being scary doesn't mean its murderous and evil and out to kill you.
True, but in the movies the critters are usually 'enhanced' by evil science or magic to be far more bloodthirsty.
When they knock out people for an hour with one single punch to the face
Suppressors and also firearms in general. It is so cringe to see actors handle firearms in such a ridiculous way. Also sick of hearing the racking of firearms way more than you realistically should.
Tbh I don’t find gun silencers in movies that annoying, like they could just be using subsonic ammo and the director knew it would ruin pace to explain why it’s quiet.
What annoys me though is “oh so you just burned down an orphanage, killed my friends, and, put the milk in first. Yea you can join our group”
Star wars: The last jedi. Why, in the name of god is fuel such a concern. If we use the laws of physics there should be no resistance in space. So why do the ships spiral backwards when they run out of fuel? Why dont they try to accelerate to terminal velocity and just shut off their engines so that they continue?
They didn't spiral backwards. They stopped accelerating forward while the First Order continued accelerating.
It would be like if your car maxed out at 60 mph and someone chasing you kept speeding up to 70 mph.
But, with no outside reference, it appears as though the non-accelerating ships are slowing down.
Because the writer fell asleep watching Battlestar Galactica.
And also since when did ships run on fuel like all of a sudden they just started running on fuel
@@justicepotter6047 They mentioned fuel in episode 5, plus what else would they run on?
@@justicepotter6047 not trying to be rude though. they did use it to an annoying extent
I hate when people obviously drop things, you never see them pick it back up, especially when in a chase scene, but they always have it later
When the supporting character is shot once in the back and dies, but the main character is shot 5 times all over the body and survives
No one ever "stop drop and roll" when they catch on fire. CPR patients never puke unless they were saved from drowning and then it's only a small mouthful of water. And this applies to TV shows too: The characters talk about a great work of literature that the script writer(s) has obviously never read. Technobabble that is more babble than techno. Female characters with no personality beyond love interest. (Bugs me with male characters too, but it's much rarer.)
Incidentally, an episode of Star Wars Rebels revealed that it's not that Stormtroopers have bad aim. Jedi are just very good at ducking. Yeah, "The Force" explains everything.
oh something good happens? the force. a bad guy is losing? its the force. Disney is making old star wars fans mad? oh nope that just the force.
