Hedgecutter Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 People being able to sneak past security cameras because the security guard is reading the paper instead of watching the monitors, almost certainly slurping a cup of cwoffee. Said guard must also be wearing an NYPD-type hat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) There's always an empty parking space whenever they need to park their car. There's always a ginormas lorry reversing across an alley whenever the cops are chasing the baddies down it.

Jacksgranda Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Whenever it's set in NI it's always love across the divide. The young up and coming actor is always needlessly killed in the last scene - usually a Cowboy & Indian film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I mentioned this in the 'Played out tropes in film and tv' thread - when something bad has happened and it affects the main protagonist of the film, and the news comes on about the incident, something makes them have to turn off the TV/radio right before the revealing of the incident, like the doorbell goes, or the phone goes. Leaving the protagonist in the dark, and they have to go on an adventure of sorts to find out who or what caused it. Why do they always turn the TV/radio off to go and answer the door/phone? That would never happen in reality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naegoodinthedark Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 In action movies when there’s a car chase scene, people jump on motorbikes and speed off. I haven’t a clue how they work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
