it has been said, but one punch knockouts...especially those from a swing that was half cocked or from about 8 inches away.



I find these much more believable than 8-minute fights in a warehouse where both the hero and the villain take repeated blows to the head.

If someone hits you across the face with a pistol you don't get up from that. You have multiple fractures and teeth missing.

Supergirl was very bad about this. She was a gopher in the first season and she was constantly delivering trays of empty cups and empty paper bags.

Inconsistency is the worst.

I quit the Walking Dead b/c of its redundancy and inconsistency.

I'll hold on to this truck doing donuts at night with one arm and headshot zombies with a revolver until we can escape...FFWD a little bit...The governor is standing still, three survivors with scoped rifles can't even graze him.

When someone strolls up to a bar, orders a "beer" and the bartender automatically knows what kind the person wants.

Also guns that apparently have clips that seem to hold infinite rounds.

And when someone cocks a shotgun to intimidate someone else.

Yeah, nobody fights for 8 minutes unless it's in a ring with a ref.

And when they fight for that long, one guy eventually goes down and the other guy just stands there and says "get up!"

Reminds me of the Westerns...everyone just says "Whiskey".

Was there only one whiskey brand in 1877?

People eating popcorn...

Went and saw a movie last week and the lady next to had brought a big bag full of snacks... all movie long she was rummaging around and unwrapping individually wrapped snacks... ridiculous!

Apparently the South (Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama specifically) still haven't figured out how air conditioning works.

We all just sweat our asses off all fricking day long.

Someone smokes weed or drinks too much and hallucinates.

EDIT: doesn't really bug me I guess because I still think it's funny when Craig sees Big Worm in his cabinet or Billy Madison gets wasted & sees a giant penguin. I just notice it happens a lot in movies.

Probably been mentioned but I hate how people always abruptly hang up the phone. No "talk to you soon", no "goodbye" just get relevant info and hang up with no warning.
I hate how no one ever checks the peephole before flinging their door open.
Everybody in the world drinks scotch neat.

The #1 thing that I can't get over is 70's/80's horror movies and there's a strange sound outside and the girl goes to investigate - "hello?, anybody out there?" "Is there someone there?"

And they walk about a 100 feet from the house. Are you Colombo?

And of course, she's wearing a negligee...and holding a candle.

It's 1980...put some sweat-pants on and grab a Maglight...light plus weapon.

But nobody wants to see that...

So movie studios scenes shot ridiculous scenes T&A scenarios to please us.

Scantily clad, candle in the wind, hello?

Anything to do with motorcycle stunts... and all motorcycles are either 2 strokes or Harleys.
