Movie Pet Peeves

[Decepticon]

"We have 15 seconds to diffuse this bomb!" *insert 5 minute long gun battle* "We have 7 seconds to diffuse this bomb!"

lets not forget whenever they're about to put in some stuff and it shows 1 second left and they cut it just as it reaches like 1 millisecond

also i hate it whenever WW2 films pretty much just show normal german soldiers as ruthless monsters that stop at nothing, hate humanity and kill a bunch of innocent people and babies like they're pigs

[Hansome duded]

That one extra scene at the end of a movie. I really have to pee.

[Alternat¡ve]

Wait! I can explain!

The second thing is so true. In history the germans may have been pretty bad at times but in the end they seem a bit more humane than we are.
Like this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Brown_and_Franz_Stigler_incident
And this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_Infantry_Battalion_%28Brazil%29 (look under "Participation in World War II")

Yes I know, Wiki links. They are sourced at the bottom.

when things blow up for no reason
when people dont know how mushroom clouds work

[randomtroll39]

when there's something that needs to be done in a specific amount of time but the movie makes it take more time than there was left

The climax of the expendables 3
loving bullstuff

[XR-7]

Let's not forget the villains that put the protagonist in an awkward position and then proceed to tell them their entire life story for every bad thing they've ever done.

[Harm94]

Random love scenes where two characters who have only known each other for a few days decide to have love all of the sudden.

When the character kills thousands of red shirts, mooks, minions, but refuses to kill the main antagonist because morals or ethics.

The token minority character who only exists for the purpose of just being there.

When the main character can hit anyone with a gun, but can't hit the protagonist from 5 feet away which leads to a long drawn out fist fight.

The overused drop the gun or I kill your girl friend scene.

Useless champanions who parade with the main character, but do nothing to help him or her. Or when you have a team of swat/soldiers their only job is to follow the character around till they die, leaving the character and some random chick alone to save the day.

The antagonists monologue is a bit overused, some of them are well used.

[Ragequit]

misread as movie pet peepees

bullstuff fistfights that shouldn't have happened in the first place where the protagonist is clearly going to lose and suddenly BAM he does something that kills the bad guy at the last minute

"oh im going to crawl frantically for a gun FIVE loving FEET AWAY and shoot the bad guy whos like
60 feet away" "lol nope already here stepped on ur hand and the gun is loving gone"

movies where the antagonist is pure evil

[foulprairiedog]

when a character is driving a car and also talking to a character in the passenger seat
but they keep looking at the loving passenger and not at the road

[jarelash]

Generic bad guy goons, who dont know how to aim

Generic good guy goons who are of no help to the main hero

[Pngu12970]

unneeded drama that forgets with the plot when normal people would have just settled it normally
people that cant aim
unneeded bullstuff that's loving boring
time travel stuff in sci fi movies that doesnt make sense because they pulled it out of their asses unlike a few that actually have it make sense

[Sideswipe]

shooting someone and having the person being shot blown back ten feet
also

unneeded love

and then

when things blow up for no reason

also there are so many movies that focus on one single object to be saved, destroyed, used, etc.
examples:
Transformers (the AllSpark which sounds like a social networking site) (also, energon)
The Avengers (sorry I forget what that was called)
and some others that only you've heard of and not me

[Alternat¡ve]

also there are so many movies that focus on one single object to be saved, destroyed, used, etc.

There are literally tens of thousands of stories across all forms of media that use this trope, its usually referred to as the Maguffin trope

[Otis Da HousKat]

love is always needed.

Don't hate on fictional character just because you can't get any.
