Some annoying tropes “Uh what just happened??” “Did that just happen??” “How about in ENGLISH, brainiac?!?” Or cliche high school/high schoolers

[@LorenzoDoesntExist]

The reason why widescreen exists is that they learned to film on 16:9 and compress it vertically to give a wider sense of space. Based on how the light is registered, you're not losing any information in widescreen compared to 16:9. Justice League was filmed on 4:3 IMAX film, which gets a taller sense of space. The theatrical cut was cropped to 16:9, which has less information. I'd equate the black bars on the left and right of 4:3 IMAX to the black bars on the top and bottom of widescreen: there are less pixels on your screen, but it's not about how many pixels there are; it's about what valuable information those pixels represent. But let's say that you watched the film in 1080p. If it were widescreen, it'd be 1920*800 = 1536000. It's 4:3, so it's 1440*1080 = 1555200. 4:3 not only takes full advantage of IMAX's sense of space, but if all you care about is how many pixels there are, it even has more pixels than widescreen. Just thought that I'd explain that since you keep complaining about the aspect ratio. Really big fan of your channels.

My biggest pet peeve with movies and tv shows is a character who is holding a controller that is obviously off

[@cometmoon4485]

One small detail that I really don't like, is when sequels in a series reuse music tracks from previous entries, and expect to invoke the same emotions as it did the last time. I'm not talking about big theme songs, which should obviously carry over between movies, I'm talking about music that was clearly composed for a specific scene or moment in a previous movie, and the studio just reuses it and hopes no-one will notice. An egregious example of this is how Endgame reuses the exact same music as when Gamora dies for its own Vormir scene. It's lazy, it draws me out of the experience, and it more than often than not just emphasises to me how inferior this particular entry is compared to the previous one.

[@mr_nevermind]

I can relate to the "recognize a lamdmark" The end credits scene in Infinity War, I know exactly which street in Atlanta that was filmed on so it's hard to remember that was supposed to be New York.

[@user-ju5sg4vz5e]

Maybe it's been brought up before, but for me it ruins a movie or TV show when there's a SWAT or some kind of strike team coming to storm a 'compound', (BTW, we need to see the main characters' faces, so they don't need any helmets, do they?), and like 20 seconds before they kick down the door they lay out the entire plan, including why they're here at all, who's the bad guy, the justification to kill him, plus cracking a joke or two before putting their lives on the line...

[@Doug_Hannon]

As someone who's spent a lot of time coaching, playing, and watching sports (track & field in particular), the thing that instantly takes me out of a movie is when a character is supposed to be impressively fast or athletic, but the actor clearly has no hand-eye coordination or terrible running form.
