Hey Pandas, What Movie Trope Do You Absolutely Hate? (Closed)

The trope where a character literally exists just to add drama for no reason. I don't mind a well-thought-out rival with a proper background story that actually proves a challenge for the main character. What I hate are the ones where some random dude/dudette gets dropped into the plot with some random excuse (I moved here from Texas!) and is immediately an arsehole to the main character, who spends the entire duration of the new character's visit being a pushover and finally getting rid of the new character/overcoming the new character's meanness super easily.

The only reason the woman/family has to die is to motivate the man to do something (I rarely see it the other way round but it's equally upsetting).

When the hero and the villain are in a life or death struggle but still find time to have a chat.

Magic, especially a broad magic that gives you the powers of a god, but it doesn't work when you need it to.

When there are 2 people who hate each other (usually man and woman) but they have to work together as a team to solve some problem and they can only do it together. Then they end up falling in love even though one of them (usually the man) is a complete ass

The guy falls for the girl or vice versa. Why can't a guy fall for a guy or a girl fall for a girl more often?

I hate the trope that in married couples even if the husband is really over weight and VERY average looking he still has to have a hot wife. The man can be obese but NEVER the woman. OK there may be times the man is not fat, but this is occasional. Yet his wife has to be beautiful at all times, always in full make up even at 7 am when she's yelling at the kids to get up for school and never a hair out of place. Also The guy has to be the "fun" parent where the wife has to the permanent nag and buzz kill and always putting everyone down.

According to all movies, books, series, etc... All ugly people are evil retards who have all the flaws one could ever imagine, and all good looking people are perfect saints. It is stupid, wrong, and very harmful for many people because everyone tends to believe it.

One of the parents, usually the mother, has died leaving the other parent alone with the middle school age child. Then the surviving parent falls in love with another person. The parent is usually hesitant to fall in love again but the child keeps pushing until the couple marry and everyone lives happily ever after. (Most Hallmark movies)

Where the bad guy with a weapon finally has the unarmed good guy cornered, but the bad guy hesitates just long enough for the good guy to overpower him.

Where the characters having sex look like they're in a wrestling match.

Where the whole world is threatened and only 1 or 2 people know how to remove the threat and save the day.

That a character can be pummeled in the face, knocked on the head multiple times, thrown into walls...yet still gets up and wins the fight.

I've never been able to put my finger on why exactly, but mistaken identity stories make my skin crawl, especially when there's a romance involved.

The Nerd. Like that's all their known for. And they always chase after the most popular person.

When several cops all show up at the front door, but nobody covers the back door, which is where the bad guy always escapes.

Okay okay. Strap in this is gonna be kinda long. This is mostly a trope (multiple actually) in Disney channel shows. First, the main character is this nerd that has glasses and braces (ah ha.. humor based on my pain.) and gets called ugly and nobody wants to be their friend etc... but then they get their glasses knocked off and everyone is swooning. Then there's also "The popular girl trope". Yes a lot of popular girls in real life are really mean but a good chunk is actually really nice and good people, and this trope gives them the impression that they're mean, when they're nice. But back to the trope itself, they usually bully the main character (again, a nerd with glasses and braces) and say things like "Guess what, I'm having a birthday party this weekend and *glances up and down for a dramatic pause* you're not invited." Usually in the show the character breaks. Down. Irl, nobody cares about your birthday, Tiger print fur coat hot pink Samantha. But that's not to say there arent hidden Disney channel gems out there. While I lost interest a long time ago, Bunk'd will always hold a special place in my heart.

The "I'm depressed/insert mental illness here/extremely toxic but now everything is fine because I'm in love" trope. That's not how that works. Coming from someone with depression. Yes, finding someone who cares and can help you might make it better, but it isn't the magic cure-all for your problems.

Also, lgbtq+ or poc characters that don't have any other personality.

Monologuing!!! Ticks me off every time in all forms of media, but ESPECIALLY video games! Like, i'd have ended this battle already if i was allowed to poke him with a sword while he was taking a frigging hour to tell me how he's already won and blah blah. And the main character just stands there and listens to it? Who has patience for that!?

Movies where the protagonists are kids or teenagers and all the adults are either oblivious to their antics, don't listen to them, or are simply not there for whatever reason. Just as bad when the kids don't go to any adult for help or advice.

Struggling artists who have only one job, and that is to be an artist, but they somehow live in expensive character studio apartments or big lofts with an upstairs (or just anywhere, where they have to pay rent, and without a cosigner), have tons of expensive art supplies and REALLY big canvases, and they're drinking fancy espressos at fancy, expensive cafes, or expensive wines.
And how artists just manage to sketch/paint someone or something within 15 minutes or less, without making any mistakes and tossing the whole thing.
Painting/drawing outside without someone coming up and pestering them. (Yes it can be irritating to the artist, and it happens often and that is why you don't see many artists creating work outside.)

Plain jane turns out to be a total hottie after she takes of her glasses

That any movie that contains an atheist character will at some point admit they believe in god or find faith, or pray or some other nonsense. But it never seems to go the other way. It's just so blatant and blech. Not something that happens in real life and it's just so preachy.
