People Are Sharing Modern Movie Tropes That Will Not Age Well, Here Are Their 51 Top Picks

DC movies in general? Maybe they have a filter like the sepia in Mexico filter.

Constantly adjusting the volume on everything because you have to crank it to hear the dialogue, then blowing your eardrums out when the music starts makes it so hard to enjoy a movie. I wear earplugs to the theater half the time now.

Are you telling me that you don't instantly see in diminished red and blue hues the moment you cross the border into Mexico?

If they called 911 the movie would be 8 minutes long

Preferable to an almost black screen...

Gotta admit Chris Evans was a surprise.

Bro this is lit fam, like no cap son...sus. Yeeet! (I'm a millennial and don't know what any of that means...sorry).

Honestly depends on the outcome, some are really predictable but I have some favorites.

Yeah, this was called out in "Black Widow".

In a world...

It reminds me of that episode of Scrubs where the woman comes in with a brain aneurysm that's causing her to hear everyone singing instead of talking and she thinks she's going crazy

I imagine it's an attempt on make them seem more human and relatable rather than the perfectly manicured and scripted beings they are.

I liked it too :D

Anyone else feels kinda strange seeing Walberg so up close?

I completely agree but I also don't mind a sympathetic motive, once it's executed well.

Especially when all the bestest parts are spoiled

I'd add how green lighting is used to indicate that something is otherworldly and malevolent, such as the Witch King's fortress in LOTR.

Thank god for the jj Abrams Star Trek. His massive overuse of lens flares in that film brought this issue to the forefront.

They're actually a few covers like this that I really enjoy, that I first heard in a movie

HOW DO PEOPLE DO THIS!?!? LIKE!?...

Also the esthetic sweating. Like...I'm in a suit or with a mask...and sweat never gets in my eye? Nah...lol. In books when they always mention "his tousled hair stuck to his face" during a fight and I'm like...I can't even drive with kinda long hair without it being in my eyes.

Most of the time that's the only personality trait they write for the character.

If they are changing anything in avengers movies this is the least priority...Iron Man needs to come back

Idk, brb

I mean...that image is from Bruce Almighty where he was messing with Steve Carell so yes...but not in this case. Lol

Yep. Trying to call out all the wrongs of the movie while still trying to make the same movie....doesn't work. You can't cancel the source material while still trying to make the same movie.

This is very specific. Maybe just don't watch those movies.

I would go with "everyone suddenly does it because when one did it the fan response was good" instead...even though all can't pull it off.

Isn't that showcasing their talent, though?

Yeah, it's the cheap way out to explain why no one helps or believes them

Blame Michael Cera, I feel like that was the basis of half of his movies back in the day

Don't watch 'em them.

Aliens!!!!

I've seen this picture so many times... what's going on here. She looks absolutely terrified 😨...

That's a "trope"? That's an ingenious way to have flashbacks.

Or when they shoot from the side. It's weird.

This person is just getting whiney.

Well no they aren't really just not like they portray them is all

She actually almost drowned during the filming of that scene.

I honestly don't mind it, do people actually have a problem with this? It lets you know what they are talking about and the situation.

Kind of love this too. Yay cover songs!

Not a trope. Films in the 2040s will have 2040s cultural references. Just because people re so ignorant that they don't understand the multiple cultural references of movies from the past, does not mean that, somehow, "cultural references in a film" is something new or recent.

I like them because it results in more people seeing the names of all the people who did the hard work on the movie. Jennifer Lawrence gets the press for sitting through 4 hours of make-up but her stunt double had to do the same thing everyday she was on set plus many days with the B crew shooting scenes while Jennifer Lawrence isn't even on set. Ronae Moneymaker deserves to have you sit through the final 10 minutes of the movie to acknowledge her hard work.

Depends on the joke really

yes, but back in the 80s all of the movies we saw had 50s branding everywhere, nostalgia, music, etc. It keeps the adults' attention focused because nostalgia=$$$

This is pretty cool sometimes though. Like the trailers for the last few Godzilla movies were so well executed.

And how people have cell service EVERYWHERE.

"floodgates" is a tall word for 90 minutes with perhaps 50 seconds of six shown nippIes all in all. I don't go to the cinema to watch p0rn, but this panicky covering up of 20 "strategic" square centimeters of skin (two female nippIes and one pube per person) when they're in bed together is ridiculous and hypocritical.

That is kinda Deadpool's thing so it was in character.
