Listen, there’s plenty of movie clichés that make us groan, like, immediately. You might even find yourself shouting at the screen, “THIS HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE!”
U/Difficult-Praline554recentlyaskedthe people of Reddit, “What do you hate in movies?” Hollywood, take note — maybe you can avoid throwing some of these in there next time around:
1.“I’m tired of all the 15-year-olds that act like they’re retirement age. It’s not bad to act like a kid. If there’s precocious, pretentious kids in a movie, it makes me want to turn off the screen and look for something else to watch.”

2."Science dude says a lot of science-y stuff and technical words longer than two syllables Hero: ‘IN ENGLISH PLEASE!'"
— u / dragonphlegm
3.“Choppy fight scenes and action scenes being 10 times louder than other scenes.”
— u / middlenameizT
4.“The sound of thunder at the exact moment of lightning.”
— u / telarium
5.“They don’t lock doors.”
— uranium / rendnez
6.“I’ve worked in restaurants and bars for nearly 15 years now. The fact that kitchen managers and executive chefs have enough time for a healthy social life in movies is just ridiculous.”
— u / Mariuxpunk007
7.“When actors ‘pretend’ to be carrying or drinking obvious empty cups. Christ, have your prop master pour 4 to 8 ounces of plaster before securing the lid.”
— u / Squeegy - Nobbers
8.“Terrible fight scenes where the protagonists are conveniently only attacked by one enemy at a time, while the others just gawk or are ‘recovering.’ I also have a special hatred for CGI background characters that are moving, but definitely not fighting.”
— u / kthulhu666
9.“They don’t say ‘Goodbye’ on phone calls.”
— u / LandAbidingCitizen
10.“When the dog dies.”
— uracil / Elizaminx
11.“Someone’s having a good life, but everyone keeps telling them they’re not complete until they get married and have kids.”
— u / Gold - Ranger
12.“Too much CGI. It’s getting worse because audiences don’t seem to care so they’re not even trying to make it better.”
— u / DJMoneybeats
13.“When people open up their phone to text someone and there are no messages above. It looks like a whole new conversation.”
— u / kittycait2021
14.“Over-explaining. I know the audience is only as smart as its dumbest member, but I want to be able to catch on to little clues or nuances without the cast outright narrating everything that’s going on. I have eyes. Please let me use them.”
— uranium / Water_edd0wn
15.“Writers not doing the bare minimum of research into the movie’s topics. I can’t watch any medical or hospital-based TV shows or films because the inaccuracies just blow out any suspension of disbelief. In the last movie I watched, the patient’s oxygen mask was attached to a urinary catheter.”
— uracil / manlikerealities
16.“All spies and whistleblowers meet on a bench in the park.”
— u / unexampled - Ad3222
17.“When they need to draw blood for a ritual, and they cut their palm. Why would you do that????”
— u / sonofabroccoli
18.“People being knocked unconscious by being hit over the head and then just going on with life with no actual negative effects. TBIs are no joke.”
— u / tiessa73
19.“I hate how animals must be making sounds at all times. If you see a horse, it has to whinny. A dog must bark, whine, or growl, even though there is nothing to provoke these reactions.”
— atomic number 92 / Johnny_West
20.“Actors taking off glasses for emphasis and theatrics. Most people who wear corrective lenses aren’t just taking them off all the time to show emotion.”
