Actors not sweeping correctly when somebody broke a glass or somebody’s ashes were spilled on the floor or something like that is infuriating hahha.
They’re always having some serious conversation with heavy relationship complications, but whoever has the broom is literally tapping at the mess on the floor because they know that the production crew is going to clean it up for them after the shoot, so they, the ac-tors, don’t have to actually sweep the mess into the dustbin.
I f****** hate that.
I’ll admit this is petty, but you asked lol
It really kills my suspension of disbelief when tech just folds up / unfolds from practically nowhere. Typically in sci-fi, and it’s most often seen with helmets. I get from a production standpoint, it can all be done in CGI and the actor doesn’t have to wear or carry around the prop for the whole scene, but it just gets annoying.
It just makes the tech seem egregiously implausible even if it is handwaved away.
Peeves are welcome.
Tech folding is a huge problem.
I would love to add tech sounds.
Every time a line of text or code displays on a monitor and you hear like a bee boo click click whirl hum while the text is slowly displaying because of delayed projection hahaha, I go f****** bonkers.
Ever since I noticed it in war games with Matthew Broderick. Like why the f*** is his computer beeping? Computers don’t do that when you type into them or when they display text instantly, not after 5 minutes of discreet character generation.
Oh, don’t get me started on tech sounds. lol.
Every once in a while, even in modern productions, you still see a printer on screen, either ink jet or laser, and the sound department gives them the old, dot-matrix “bzzzzzzzzt bzzzzzztt” sound. I may laugh when I hear it, but I do die inside a little.
Oh constantly.
Here’s, the buzzing or chunking is instantly a " Oh, okay, a 70-year-old wrote this movie" vibe.
Edge of Tomorrow and how the suit fits in the pickup truck always bugs me!
Don’t they show her ripping off the backs of the seats when she gets in?
Yeah, but check out how it “unfolds” as Tom Cruise is popping out the top of the vehicle.
