Movie tropes/cliche's you hate

Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

What are some movie tropes/cliche's you hate?


Most of mine would probably come from the horror genre.

For instance the "Only one person ever hears creepy noises at night and gets woken up by them, noises stop when they alert people and nobody believes them"

Or "Someone sees some crazy stuff or gets injured/infected in some way and never tells anyone for no reason"
SO many problems in movies could be solved with WHY DON'T YOU JUST TELL THEM WHAT HAPPENED


And lastly, another horror one "People enter a creepy location somewhere, usually the woods, they try to leave...but end up in the same place over and over! Ahhh!"
Scary but not so much when it's in like a billion movies.

Main character plot armor is devastatingly drab.

I don't have any issues with most clichés no matter how repetitive, but this one is rarely done well

Piccolo: Just how many people have you sacrificed?!

Cell: Sacrifice? Hmph, rubbish! On the contrary, it is an honor to become a fraction of my power.

I really don't like villains who turn out to be not that bad of guys. I'm seeing this all the time nowadays and I think it's stupid tbh.

Strong independent woman but she still needs a handsome man in her life.

Lead character is right about something but no one believes them.

Heartfelt speech leads to instant forgiveness for dickish behaviour.

Only main characters can hit their targets.

Everything's bullet proof.

Infinite ammo.

Time travel conveniently undoes character mistakes.

"Previously on..."

"Next time on..."

People walking off screen when they've made a point.

Another horror one I hate is "The smartest/most capable person gets killed off first"

I understand it as a story tool, you remove the survivalist or whatever and destabilize the whole group, force usually the main character to develop etc etc
But EVERY time, every single time, even when it makes no sense.

If the killer/monster in whatever movie is smart then picking off the most intelligent character first would make sense but they almost never display that sort of intelligence yet conveniently pick off the most useful member of the party.
Just kinda lazy writing at this point, especially since 99% of the time they have no real chance of surviving anyway.
