Snipes couldn't throw. There is not a single scene in that movie of him throwing a ball. If you can't throw, I'm putting you in the "you may be good at exercising but you don't play real sports and aren't an athlete" bucket

This thread reminded me of this. Quick watch if yall are so inclined.

I HATE the "all-knowing" scientist. His number 3. The biologist who suddenly knows quantum or in depth electromagnetic stuff to get the movie to the next plot point. Kills me.

Well they included Corbin and Tom "throwing" and they looked awful so they certainly weren't afraid of showing actor's flaws.

Look, I'm not saying Wesley was a great athlete but you can't be unathletic and scale a wall and make a catch. Major League is free on youtube, just go watch that scene.

The Wilhelm scream. You will be hard pressed not to hear it crammed into any action movie.

This is the most egregious ham fisting of it.

I have a thing with listening to people chew. I hate when people are unnecessarily stuffing their mouths full of food during a conversation in a movie.

I saw the movie The Strangers in theaters in 2008... at one point a character is about to eat some Blue Bell ice cream out of a half-gallon bucket but is interrupted by someone at the door. That ice cream just sat on the table the rest of the film... wasted.

When two characters are talking and the camera shot is over the shoulder of one character and into the face of the second character; first character speaks with his back to the camera while the second listens. Inevitably the jaw movement of the speaker does not coordinate with the dialogue we hear. The jaw will move in silence, and then we hear the dialogue, or vice versa.

Any of these lines of dialogue - typically in action movies:
"Wheels up in five."
"What's our play."
"Roger that."
"I've got your six."

When a human body stops a bullet and the protagonist who is behind said body is saved from being shot

And my dad's peeve:
When a character digs a hole with a square point shovel.

Already mentioned, nothing makes me aggressively roll my eyes like watching characters hacking security or finding files on any computer in 2-3 seconds. I have dozens of versions of similar spreadsheets at work, and sometimes it may take me a solid 10 minutes to locate the exact one I need for a meeting, and I created and filed them myself.
