The makeover scene where the "ugly" girl gets a "glow-up". The most glaring example is "The Princess Diaries", but it's basically a staple in any media that have an alternative and/or nerdy girl. Most of the time it's SUCH a downgrade and the girl in question loses everything that was interesting about her. And it also sends a message that you have to bury your individuality and conform to beauty standards if you want to be loved and accepted.

yeah especially where the only/main thing that changes is them taking off their glasses. i think glasses are pretty cool actually. also that trope makes all us glasses wearers feel ugly.

Agreed! I've worn glasses since I was 6 years old and I have always hated how the ugly girl always wears glasses but when she takes them off she's suddenly gorgeous. That's a horrible message to grown up with. In fact, it still bothers me LOL

yeah. this is in places other than hollywood too. plus sized people can be serious and slimmer people can be funny too. it would be nice if these sort of movies had a little diversity from these stereotypical tropes.

I think it's some sort of attempt to rescue the movie maker from the accusation that slim = attractive. Meaning, I think it derives from the cultural trope that if a person is """Unattractive""" they can "still have a great personality"... I think that's the origin of this one.

I HATE this trope so much. Scars are nothing to fear, they do not mean a person is evil. We aren’t defined by our looks. Media can influence society, many people are repulsed by scars because they associate them with bad. As someone once said, “we shouldn’t fear the person with scars, but who or what gave it to them”.

YESSSSS!!! PLEASE women STOP watching this c**p it gives SUCH unrealistic expectations of how relationships work. I mean... 50 shades... ffs...

It means that ordinary women can aspire to this glamour... and ordinary men? Nothing for you mate. And then your trade is you subject yourself to abuse in the guise of kink? AWFUL. Pretty Woman was no different, just smaller scale. And she's literally a prostitute at the beginning. And her great aspiration is to shop. Fuckkkkk offff. I think the best romcom I saw was Zack and Miri. That was ok. Ordinary-looking people. Ordinary BS. I mean I saw Ticket to Paradise recently. HORRIBLE. luxury getaway for spoilt kid. Divorced couple get back together. Er, no. It sucks. Stop doing that. You get divorced because you outgrow the person. This trope of the sanctity of the family unit and marriage in american movies makes me barf. Another example when the divorcees fix up their marriage by the death of the stepfather (e,g jurassic park 3). Vomit.

Male lead's motivation for revenge/action/etc. being violence against the women in his life like a wife, girlfriend or daughter (especially when it's sexual violence). Female lead's motivation being to get revenge for her own sexual assault. Scenes explicitly showing the assault. Treating sexual assault against men as comedy.

Most of the time, the best friend of the MC has the most people shipping them since they actually look like they would be something more because the are besties and are supposed to like each other.

WOW so many. Let me think of the ones I hate the most. (a) Car chase. (b) Deus ex machina when the hero is trapped. (c). Monologuing villain when he could just shoot the hero. (d). Token tokenism - when the black person is put in a hero role but is STILL overshadowed by the white hero. Think e.g. of Iron Man series. (e). Mother makes huge breakfast, everyone runs before eating it. (f) Aliens only attack USA. (f) Romcoms in general: boy meets girl, they do not like each other, they accidentally meet again, they shag, they have a romance montage, they fight, they break up, boy buys flowers and runs after girl through the rain to fetch her, etc. (g) American army saves the day. (h) Crooked cops. (i) Competent cops. (j). White male saviour. (k) Handsome/beautiful lead characters. .... I can go on for hours. I'll stop there.

When the hero has some super cool ability that they can use to just one shot their opponent and they don't use this all the time. Ultraseven has this one attack where he uses his head-slicey-boomerang thing and then powers it up with his telekinesis and it usually one-shots monsters. Unlike Ultraman, who has a finite amount of energy and cannot necessarily use one-shot attacks like the Ultra Attack Beam or Ultra Psychokinesis all the time because if it doesn't kill them then he could run out of energy, which would allow the monster to run free until he recovers, but Ultraseven can do this all the time since he has protectors over his color timer.

It's hard to put it into words, but let me try: That new trope where the protagonist starts out as seemingly flawed and with problems with the entire social enviroment. But then it's basically solved by saying "She/He's perfect, it's everyone else around her/him that needed a (perception / attitude / whatever) change to accomodate her. Basically Mary Sues with any plot reduced to token-struggles, because the real struggle is getting EVERYONE to accept her as just perfect the way she/he was from the beginning. Character developement willingly thrown out as a concept for THE MOST IMPORTANT CHARACTER IN THE MOVIE, it seems. The new Mulan was like that and She-Hulk too in the end. There are probably other, but I can't remember right now.

The "Strong and Independent Woman" trope From personal experience I find it quite unbelievable that a 60kg woman can beat several muscle packed security guards in hand to hand combat without getting a single injury. Another trope to make a female character look good is to lobotomise every male character around her so she looks smart and clever while using the most basic logic every human is capable of (Agent Carter). Bonus points for displaying every single man as sexist a*****e. Being a Mary Sue right from the start without any development or real struggle falls into that category too, nowadays often paired with "Toxic Masculinity" as only character trait to appear strong. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against female leads in entertainment (Judy Hopps, Roberta Warren, Lara Croft, Ellen Ripley - to name a few), but it takes good writting to make them work as characters.

I cannot stand 'pair of spares' where a couple background characters get smooshed together because everyone else haaaad to be in a romance. Mostly, though, I HATE all the dark dark dark dark dark and brown movies. Like someone said once when asked why LotR's night battles were so well lit compared to Game of Thrones and how unrealistic that was: The light comes from the same place the music does.
