ITT: Pet peeves in film and TV

L shaped blankets.

Characters have sex for recreation outside of marriage and use birth control

Shows that follow a specific date in time but then commenting on real world events and referencing stuff that shouldn't exist at the time.

e.g The Good Place mentioning Brexit/bag dance kid

>films not shot on film
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I always catch the dialtones after someone on the other end hangs up even though it's a cellphone. and when they don't say bye at the end of a conversation.

underrated

I- I thought I was the only one

You mean the negro fatigue wojack?

Really obvious rain machines. When it very suddenly just massively downpours out of nowhere usually just in the immediate area. Daredevil (the movie not the show) had an egregious one, at a convenient moment it just started lashing ridiculously.

That fucking sound effect of a creaky metal door closing drives me up the wall
Legit makes me mad every time

>setting is 1940s or earlier
>entire color palette is desaturated

>opening scene to movie is a flyover shot of a vast area with an edited-down popular song
>title appears at the catchiest part of said song

>setting is modern US city
>no overabundance of visually unappealing Latinos and homeless people

>all characters have their phones on max volume constantly, if not vibrating just as loud

>the picture of Frank Sobotka they used for union leader candidate flyers is the same one they blow up and display at his funeral

i've noticed the same exact door opening/closing sound effects used over and over and over again between countless tv shows and movies. i guess that one's part of the cheapo package.

When there's a total stock sound effect. I was watching a serious film a while back, I can't recall which one, but in the background a rooster crows, but the sound effect is from fucking Legend of Zelda, and all I could think was the lead was going to be attacked by a swarm of cuccos.

>>setting is 1940s or earlier
>>entire color palette is desaturated
fuck this drives me up the wall
>tfw noone ever tries to pull an oversaturated technicolor look

Every computer beeping and booping for no reason.

I remember in Die Hard 4, the hacker is typing fast and the actor instinctively reaches for the mouse in one shot, but there is no mouse there.

Empty cups. Actors look like dipshits pretending to sip from empty mugs and you can always blatantly see nothing in them.
You can't even put water in them?

Smartphones have made movie phone calls way less dramatic. At least flip phone could be opened or closed with a cool click sound effect.

Why can't they just say goodbye before ending a call? What does hanging up on someone add to the movie honestly?

Characters that drink like a fish and smoke like a chimney but otherwise look in perfect health. It's just not possible.

>City streets always wet at night
There's a reason for that, I think it's because it's just aesthetically pleasing.

I hate that shit so fucking much.

This is especially true in movies where they're obviously getting a tax break for marketting the city. In Ocean's 11 everyone in the background is well kemt and wearing a suit (especially the water fountain scene at the end). Anyone who has been to Vegas knows that fountain is surrounded by sweaty tourists wearin under armour

True, with the second floor and all

They do the zoom in some marvel movies I think, if that's what that user meant.

closeted homosexual character finds love and everything works out

When a "scientist" or gadget wiz type character is supposed to be working on something but all they're doing is pretending to turn a screwdriver on some device. It's shockingly common especially in TV.

In old movies obvious dubbing

lol i instantly heard it in my mind reading that

>chalkboard contains a random string of nonsensical 'math' equations

>character isn't a straight white male

The sound is called "That Poor Cat", cliched for cartoons or comedies having something crashing into trashcans and sending a cat running.

*school bell rings*

>problem that neither Einstein nor his mother could figure out
>obvious main character comes along
>solves it in minutes
Alright, nobody is THAT smart.

The movie isn't about anything and it's all just underlying themes

>very obviously right in the middle or even early in a lesson
>bell rings
>everyone just jumps up and leaves while the teacher tries to yell chapters to read and homework to do
Literally no class I ever attended in elementary, high or university worked like this. What do these teacher's lesson plans look like?

Kek

>high school
>literally every kid has a car

Characters in historical movies being "woke"

>robbers break into house
>noisily look around for framed family photo so they can smash the glass on it

>every kid looks like a 30 year old actor

When they show TV footage of something inside the movie and it's been filmed with movie cameras and edited like an actual movie.

Holy shit Hollywood people are fucking stupid

>Modern London in a movie/show
>full of white business-looking people instead of shitskins and tourists
>beautiful traditional buildings instead of kebabs or betting shops, rubbish and graffiti everywhere

>characters talking on phone
>hangs up without saying goodbye
or worse
>hangs up after receiving an important but small piece of information, doesn't wait to clarify or hear if there's more

>9 times out of 10 it's a suave buff black dude with a hot white chick
>the other 1 out of 10 times it's a pasty nerdy weak white guy with an ugly dominant nigress
Hmm... what could hollywood possibly be trying to convey here?

>father is in proximity of their child
>highest pitched "I love my daddy :)" possible, completely unprovoked, is just there to add stilted drama because the dad has to go kill someone or something

LEAVING THE FUCKING DOOR OPEN

Holy fuck this.
Especially when the TV footage is just replaying a scene from earlier in the movie with the same exact cuts, angles, etc.

How does this even happen? Does the script literally say
>bell rings to indicate class starts, everyone sits down
>protagonist argues with the teacher for 30 seconds
>bell rings to indicate class ends, everyone gets up while the teacher yells out homework

Really irked me when they did this in KOTM.

>torches on the wall still lit
