- When people ask for a "burger with cheese". Wtf?? Just ask for a CHEESEBURGER!! Think Baby Boy and Menace II Society.
- That every Haitian practices voodoo and every Jamaican says "yeah mon"
- The fact that a movie could be filmed in a certain country based on events in that country and none of the actors are indigenous natives (think How Stella.....)
- Whenever you have two characters talking to each other one of them always looks out the window or has their back to the other person. I mean who communicates like that?
- That slow motion bullsh*t whenever there's about to be a shooting or something else dramatic.

When people wake up in immaculate condition. Not a single hair out of place.

- When two people are driving in the car talking and the car driver is looking at the other person for like 20 minutes and the car doesn't even crash. How does that work?
- it's directly after a 'supposedly' heavy sex scene and the man gets out of bedwearing his undies. What the.....was he just rubbing up against her leg or what?
- you hear this blood curdling scream that bearly sounds human coming from a part of the already weird and eerie house and somebody says "What was that" and then goes off to investigate. I am thinking to myself...just get the ***k out of there why don't you?
- long death scenes. You know the type? The guy is really mashed up, like with 50 gunshot wounds and he takes about half an hour reciting a whole heap of sh*t with the people around him saying "hang in there Joe, you gonna be alright"...confused3

*Ok I thought of one. When the woman (it usually isa woman) discovers that her husband/lover is the killer and she decides to tell him that she knows before telling anybody else or getting out of the house and having him arrested or whatever. I mean how dumb could you be.

- When all the police in the world arrive just after all the mayhem and carnage has taken place
- Wack sex scenes
- The fact that NO black british actor in any American movie or drama series can play a black briton. Never mind the fact that white british actors occasionally speak with theirnative accents. In movie/tv land there's no such thing as a black brit.
- When you have a group of foreigners who are alone together yet alwaysspeak english with one another!!! This really cheeses me off and Scarface is a shining example of that!

Comic movies where they spend an hour telling me the heros origin. I don't care. I already know! Just show me a good scuff damnit.
Like Hulk. All that psychobabble and pseudo science... all I want is banner to get mad and say "Hulk smash hulk bash" and THATS IT! Thats what I paid for.

LOL....You guys giving me pure joke. I like this thread.
@ BB
That film scenario frustrates the hell out of me cause more times than not, after they have announced to the killer that 'I know you are the killer and I am going to turn you in'....what does the killer do?.....dah! Just as bad are the ones where they try to blackmail the killer.Yeah, like his only option is to pay up.confused3

What pisses me off is when the film is supposed to be historically accurate or based ona book and they f**k it up.
When the missionaries came to Africa, they had the bible and we had the land. They taught us to pray with our eyes closed. When we opened them, they had bible, and they had the land.

Long winded escapes i.e.
When the woman, (and italways isa woman), is escaping an intruder she always take the loooong route out of the house - that is she'd run along a landing, run down a flight of stairs, runs to the kitchen, runs back to the living room, then along the hallway, to a, (surprise surprise), locked front door. Did'nt she see the OPEN French windows in the living room or theback door in the kitchen or the extra rooms she could of hid inalong thelanding?
Jeez!

Corny action scenes and subliminal advertising..
Perfect example Blade 3:
They are preparing to go battle the vampires, the woman was getting ready strapping all the weapon gadgets on.. and when she was done, she slipped in an Ipod WTF, how can u fight with a bloody ipod plugged into your ears.

Far fetched fight scenes where the 'hero' and the adversary are fighting for what seems like hours hitting each other with iron bars, knees to the face, a whole heep of kicks to the head and 1000 thundering punches fullin the face. All carried to the point that the hero (it's usually the hero) is practically dead, sagging like a sack of potatoes....only for him (or her cause it happens with the she-heroes too) to arise like the pheonix and batter the helpless villain into pie mash.
You everheard ofanyone getting beat like that (metal bars in all) to come back big and stong, with no broken bones, to over come their adversary? ......kiss teet...........

The price of snacks in the movies. I hardly buy any. It's unhealthy anyway.
