Name three african bushmeat documentaries where this happens.

guys who are always one step ahead, like jason bourne or jack reacher

>what looked like a deus ex machina was actually orchestrated by someone

love this for some reason, the more elaborate while still being believable, the better

>Villain is an unstoppable force of nature

>dystopian setting
>parallels real life

Name 3 kinks where this happens

They Live

>Character is a dick but hasn't been revealed as a bad guy yet
>The protagonist fucks with him throughout the movie, even before it's revealed that he's a villain

>hot bad girl gets humiliating defeat
I cum every time

>Villain gets redeemed through personal sacrifice
>Hero ends up becoming a complete dick

>Character sacrifices themselves to save the day
>it doesn't work

What movie/show?

>freeze frame

>They want to be together but their personal hangups mean they can't

underrated filename

>guy who's pointing out how unrealistic/stupid the situation is, but is being a real dick about it gets brutally taken out of the picture

Just let us have our fun.

>antagonist did nothing wrong

>music playing over montage / movie intro then character turns of radio

>movie focuses in different separated characters
>at some point halfway through they meet each other and become co-protagonists

>being caught was part of his plan

Children of men
They live
Videodrome

>character is revealed as a pre-op mtf tranny
>looks straight into the camera and winks, saying "Thats right, just embrace it"

>minor character takes command of a scene

And I'm actually talking about Snowpiercer where Grey comes out of the crowd to solo that big guy.

>Character voice-over describes how a heist is supposed to go down
>shows how the heist actually ends up going down.

>characters that don't get along learn to accept each other and become best bros

I always get a warm comfy feeling inside my tummy when this happens, y'know

>the protagonist is secretly the true antagonist

>narrator voices characters in a flashback

>woman meets man and initially hates him
>has sexual relations with him less than 24 hours later

like Chigurh?

>"And this is me"
>camera show a hot chad
>"no, not him!"
>camera shows a regular looking dude
>"No! down here!"
>camera pans down to a cute animal

...

>The protagonist is a complete asshole and the only reason people view him as the good guy is because he's the main character

this is like the liberal version of Gods not Dead. holy shit this stuff is cringy

>time travel movie
>trying to change the future
>turns out they were supposed to do what they did when they went back in time
>mind blown

Grey was a fucking ninja how could he die.

Also
>Competent henchman that killed the protagonist's friend ends up being killed by the hero

Narcos? Every James Bond film?

The main character or a big name actor gets killed off in the very beginning of the film. I wish this was done more

>screech
>freeze frame
>"you're probably wondering how I got myself into this situation"

Inside Llewyn Davis

>Character is describing what happened to people
>freeze frame
>"That's not how it happened"
>Go back and do it the way they remember

Generally any situation where it shows how different characters interpreted the situation. Kind of like "Who Got Dee Pregnant".

I actually don't like this one. Only one I could tolerate was Jeff from Community and that was because he was a sleazy lawyer who acknowledged the type of person he was.

Godzilla 2014

when a movie that is otherwise completely normal does something ridiculous out of nowhere
>From Dusk til Dawn
>Accepted
>Anchorman 2
>others?

>main character does something
>villain gets angry and says "WAIT! THIS IS NOT MEANT TO HAPPEN THIS WAY!"
>villain grabs a remote and rewinds the scene

YES

Literally what movie

>protagonist is badly beaten and almost defeated
>villain starts to gloat and specifically threaten protag's family/loved ones
>protagonist goes into a rage and kicks the shit out of him

I get hyped every time

>heist is almost executed perfectly as described but then fucked up on the very last step

Narration introducing the team. I fucking love it

>mfw all the normies got so pissed by seeing the evil guys win at the end

>everything is going great for the main character when suddenly he says a stupid remark or does something pathetic and he fucks everything up

Narcos did nothing wrong

>character sees a women who he wants to talk to
>finishes his beer and slams it on the table before walking up to her

>character time travels back to right when he is about to be born and strangles himself with his mother's umbilical cord so he never gets born to begin with

Inglorious basterds bar scene?

I've done something similar but that's because the girl was actually at the bar and it would have looked retarded ordering another beer with a two-thirds full one in my hand.

Does anyone really view Llewyn as a good guy?

idiocracy

>protagonist and friend team up to fight antagonist
>still struggle to beat him

i'm not sure if i do this for dutch courage or because i've seen it in so many movies.

either or me rikey

A sociopathic character who uses everyone like chess pieces.

>protag turns dirty degenerate slut character into kind virtuous lady

>character is blinded but is still able to fight

>antag turns kind virtuous lady character into dirty degenerate slut

>character is a total badass
>wants to be left alone by everyone to do his own thing, has simple aspirations
>forced into brutal action and ends up single handedly taking down the boss man

blind warriors are almost always based

>simple aspirations

>starts off with fake newscasts montage
I mean I don't love it, but I absolutely don't mind it, especially in films that aren't dystopian

Also nu trope
>Tweet or message is displayed in text next to the character
You have to admit there is literally no other good way to convey an online interaction, what are you gonna do? Shoot the screen every five minutes and pray the audience could read through the glare.

>redemption arcs

literally every time. I fucking love seeing the asshole turn into a hero

this shit was so annoying.

>Characters do some mundane thing that escalates into a full conflict to show off how badass they are to eachother and make some sort of philosophical point

youtube.com/watch?v=uV4QBdrOssI

>Antagonist genuinely believes what he's doing is right.
>Bonus points if you find yourself agreeing with him.

...

>Entire movie wouldn't have happened if someone, somewhere had either left the main character alone or said sorry/made things right from the getgo.

Didn't House of Cards invent that?

>ending of les mis
>you get to see the asshole turn into an hero

it was in sherlock first, about 3 years before house of cards

If only Heatwraps worked on eternal pain

>Villain teams up with hero to fight an even bigger villain

>Hero with amnesia was the villain all along

>Freeze frame
>Record scratch

>Henchman becomes an anti-hero over the coarse of the film

>Gets an Asian girl at the end

>Disabled warrior

>Normal guy with gun trying to fight supernatural and magical shit

>Somebody the main character loves is killed and he kills everyone who had anything to do with it

>Grown man's side kick is younger girl

THIS THIS THIS

>>Normal guy with gun trying to fight supernatural and magical shit
forgot to add
>bullets do next to nothing
>still shoots them anyway because fuck yeah

>Protagonist dies

I just feel so good when this happens. Like it is for real and shit, because you die in real life too.

Shit, one more
>Loyal dog defends it's master against anything, even if it doesn't stand a chance

>good guy and bad guy team up to defeat a greater evil

>their contrasting personalities and abilities actually make them work well with each other

>protagonist is defeating a villain in a fight
>villain is severely weakened/ villain surrenders
>begs the protagonist to save his/her life
>protagonist executes the villain instead

>mentally unstable antagonist falls in love with the protagonist as they watch them in action or vice versa

No, I can't name any examples, I was hoping someone would ask and someone else would reply so I'd know what to watch tonight

They do, you just have to eat a lot.

literally The Truman Show

Implying this ever happens.

>Character looks at mannequin in clothing store
>Cut to Character walking out of clothing store wearing the clothes that were on the mannequin and the mannequin is now naked

>Protagonists narrates the movie

love it thanks

>good guys pull off a plan based on hilarious amounts of luck and it's passed off as cleverness

It works so well sometimes. (skip to 0:44)
