CJacobs posted:God drat it do I hate movies that do the whole "start sentence- jump cut to a different scene -finish sentence" thing. As if a real person would just hold in the last two words of a sentence until the exact right moment when something else is happening. Some show(Archer I think) made fun of that.

Went to see Sin City yesterday and watching the trailers reminded me of how much I hate how loud the volume is in movie theatres. Like uncomfortably loud. I also hate when the dialogue in movies is quieter than everything else in the movie.

Medieval Medic posted:Are you sure it was Dicaprio & Damon? Shamefully, for me it was Damon & Marky Mark. I got Dicaprio, Damon and Marky Mark confused. Not for long periods, just at the start of scenes. I thought it was intentional that they looked similar.

An irritation of mine is how most trailers today are more like short films then actual trailers. i know they're supposed to get people hyped up for the movie but sometimes it's ridiculous. I saw a trailer recently that was 3 minutes long.

Back in the mid 2000's if a movie showed some kind of montage for an underdog protagonist you can bet this was the song played. I didn't like it to begin with but after it's overuse made me hate it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDvr08sCPOc

Wow. I thought they used it so much since people liked it but that's not even the case. It's just a lovely song that advertisers and media stuck with.

To be fair it seems like a trademark for the director. Just look at his other movie Monsters.

Stottie Kyek posted:I think a lot of scenes in it we were meant to laugh at, lots of us did in the cinema when I saw it today. What annoyed me about Gone Girl was Neil Patrick Harris's character is the biggest, creepiest Nice Guy in the world, in fact I was expecting him to murder Amy for real in the lake house, but none of the other characters seemed to acknowledge that until after she killed him and "escaped". They were all saying "Poor thing, she accused him of stalking her" - but he absolutely did stalk her and pestered her with letters and showed up in the neighbourhood and all sorts, after twenty years! They made too much of the "bitches lie about this stuff to hurt innocent men" and not enough of the "maybe a few of these guys really were bad news, and this is the company Nick finds himself in" angle. This is a few pages back but they thought that the stalking accusations could have been fake since she had already lied about the rape.

I agree with Away All Goats. I know it's because they wanted Dent as a symbol, Batman as a myth and all that but it doesn't feel satisfying. It's hard to explain.

They should have done something like the Hush storyline for TDKR. It could have been a story that focused on Bruce/Batman and could have displayed batman's detective skills while he's trying to find out who's sabotaging his life. They could even play off the public's attitude on Batman and still fit Talia in it.

I liked Olympus Has Fallen because it took the stupidity of the plot seriously. Sometimes when things are too self aware it's more annoying; it's like having the movie elbow you in the ribs going "hey, hey, see that joke? we know how to have fun." Something that isn't really annoying but sort of funny is when there's a translator for a deaf person who's talking for them. When the deaf person becomes emotional the translator does too.

It's like it's a movie or something. Cattiness aside, I can understand not liking something because of how stupid the plot is; how you probably feel about Olympus Has Fallen, I feel about Lucy.

In movies where a character goes off to college and their freshman professor is tough and strict to introduce them to the real world. I don't know about most people but most of my freshman professor didn't really give a gently caress.

I was watching the bridge scene from Mission Impossible 3 yesterday and something that bugged me was when Tom Cruise was running from the overturned truck after getting the gun. The drone launches a missile at the truck, it explodes, but the force from the explosion doesn't send Tom Cruise forward, instead it sends him to the right straight into a car.

In the first season of Arrow, oliver sneaks into the back of a chinese restaurant that's a front for something and pushes one of the workers against the wall and begins interrogating them in mandarin. After he gets his information he runs off and the worker tell another guy that he just got interrogated and the only thing that he knew about them was that they spoke perfect mandarin. Even for Arrow it was an eye-rolling moment.

EvilGenius posted:I'm completely numb to action scenes. Car chases, fights, or big FX sequences, that kind of thing. I find them incredibly boring.

Snowpiecer is such a stupid movie that I couldn't even finish the damned thing and I generally love movies of that genre and style.Maybe If only the the movie didn't try to take it self serious it would have been better. Maybe it didn't try to take it self serious and I missed it? It didn't really take itself that seriously, it just wasn't on the nose about it, which is better than movies that have to take time to give a wink to the audience.
