I love Christopher Nolan movies but he has a tendency to film some retarded shit from time to time. In Batman Begins Lucius is talking to Batman about weaponized aerosols and Batman is like: 'english please?'. Batman doesn't know what a weaponized aerosol is? Get the fuck outta here. In Dark Knight Rises it's Talia's death scene. I mean I know it's PG13 but you could've at least tried to give that scene some impact. In Interstellar it's explaining worm holes to a crew of astronauts with an analogy ripped straight out of Event Horizon. Come on now.
The Last Jedi had too many to mention but the beginning where Luke throws the lightsaber sticks out. If you watch the ending of TFA and that scene back to back it's just a giant slap in the face.

You should scrutinize Dark Knight Rises plot, full of idiotic things.
I'd say The Last Jedi starts off even worse with the First Order choosing to fire their big cannons at a stationary base first instead of an enemy fleet that's receiving evacuees.

“Aww, it’s so...average,” she said to him in a cold brick of passion
The ending of the first Thor movie.
"She searches for you"
*Dramatic buildup implying Jane has figured out how to find Asgard*
*Thor looks into the distance at a brief light*
*Black screen*.
And is completely ignored in the next Thor movie and is never explained. It's an old gripe and petulant one, but still irks me to this day after seeing it in theaters.

Pretty much. I would love to know the thought process that one had to go through to find this scene to be a valuable enough to be included in the movie.

It's got Toby i love it
Hmm, my one ...
I hate that scene in Run Lola Run, when she's running*, and she's dressed to appeal to turn of the century ideals of hot punk chick that get more and more outdated by the year.
* In case you didn't get it, she's always running, so the whole movie is very tough for me to watch

Star Wars Last Jedi is just pain from start to finish but it wasn't enough to be a terrible movie, it even broke reality as the wretched cesspool of movie critics/outlets bafflingly praised the movie. Now time has only proven how fucking despicable, worthless and absolutely clownish reviewers look in hidesight.

The ending of The Mist (2007).
It's especially annoying when you point that out and others tell you that you are wrong and people would do what the characters did that in real life.

I don't care how bad their situation was. There were 4 adults in the car. I would expect at least 1 of them to not agree/protest on the mass suicide idea. Or at least be very frightened about it. But no, they all bravely agreed to it as if it's nothing. In real life i doubt any of the other 3 passengers would agree with the protagonist's idea. They were supposed to be the rational ones.
Also, this wasn't how the book ends. So they just decided to ruin the ending of the movie for a shock "gotcha" moment.
American movies make suicide/sacrificing yourself look so easy and casual. How many times have you seen characters sacrificing themselves to achieve things they easily could without dying? Or for things that aren't really worth it? So yeah, that (along the intimidating monster roars) are the things that make me angry in movies.

First post got it right. Scene was agonizing to watch.

Makes sense if you're Rian Johnson and are out to humiliate Luke Skywalker. Subvert expectations by revealing that Luke, who's bravery and heroics were vital to freeing the universe from the Empire, is actually a hermit.

Start of Alien 3 where 2 major characters from Aliens are killed off.
Prometheus -
"It's what I choose to believe"
This guy just taking his helmet off, later on acting like a child who didn't get his Christmas presents when they've made major discoveries of alien life.
Trying to pet an alien.
Thinking that reviving an Engineer would mean getting immortality.
Alien Covenant
Idiots poking stuff and sticking their face in it.
The whole "back burster" scene on the ship
The Xenomorph is a step back in evolution when previous versions could spread through air.
Religious dude getting tricked to his death

I think of this scene anytime I hear anyone say they wouldn't defend their home/famiily with violence because they don't believe in it..

I’ll echo the sentiments on Alien 3 and TLJ. Weird to have watched them erase their predecessors’ characters or buildup.
In Orphan, when the father seemingly blamed the mother for breaking the orphan’s arm. Like, what the hell? The mother just grabbed her arm. Why would he think that she was strong enough to break the arm? The bone was sticking out for god’s sake.

That was rough.
And basically anything from the new trilogy of SW movies wins. From ”Ben” killing Han, to all of TLJ, to all of that last piece of nonsense.

If you ever watched Dear Zachary or Making a murderer. You will still be angry at the "Justice" system.
It still makes my blood boil thinking about it.
A lot of Documentaries when they are well done should be pushing you to action.
A few more for good measure that still pisses me off.

Jesus Camp (brainwashing of children)
The Thin Blue Line (Wrongfull conviction of innocent man)
The Act of Killing (mass murderers getting away with it)
Kids for Cash (Man send kids to prison for his own profit)
Inside Job (2008 meltdown, nobody get punished, worse the offenders get rewarded)

This scene. Its just plain demeaning to women, the ultimate slap in the face of saying "Here we are throwing you a bone, see, all of you on one screen, WOMAN POWER!". Its so direct and forced to pander to an audience. Just imagine a giant battle to save the earth taking place and everyone stops so the women can find each other and pose. There were soooo many better ways to do this, to show them fighting just as well as the other heros, to show Pepper saving Tony or something. My wife rolled her eyes at this scene so hard.
