You'll never look at movies the same after this.

For anyone who loves watching movies, there's always one thing out there that can make or break a film for you.

Maybe it's something in the plot or a cliché you've seen played out one too many times? Whatever it is, chances are you already know it as you're reading this post.

I've rounded up the most memorable answers to the thread. Take a look before you push play on your next movie:

1. "When the trailer reveals the entire story."

2. "Running through the wilderness in heels for the majority of a movie. IRKSOME."

3. "When it's so dark you actually can’t see what's happening."

4. "Forced romance. Sometimes movies don't need it and that's ok."

5. "A bad accent."

6. "Characters in an apocalyptic and/or survival situation but they looked perfectly groomed, [wearing] makeup [and] nice clothes."

7. "Background actors in fight/war scenes waiting for their turn to attack the main character."

8. "Knowing the story from a book and the adaption is just not meeting expectations."

9. "When people figure out someone’s password in literally no time."

10. "When they whisper a super important point of the story, and you miss it, and feel confused for the rest of the movie."

11. "Characters that are brought back alive just to keep the show moving."

12. "When there's a scene that's just advertising a brand."

13. "When the heroes survive an overblown car crash that would've crippled or killed most people, only to walk away with a scratch. It's not very realistic, even for an action movie."

14. "Sh--ty fight scenes where I can barely tell what I’m looking at."

15. "When they repeat the same sentence 2, 3 [or] 10 times in the story for no reason, just to have a kind of motto."

16. "Time period movies where every car looks like it just drove off the lot. What cars never get dirty in movies?!?"

17. "Main characters being invincible while everyone else dies from one punch. I get that the main characters have to survive or they wouldn’t be main characters, but at least make the damage somewhat realistic."

18. "That all the major issues could be solved by a simple conversation but instead 'No, I don't have time to explain,' leading to force conflict from misunderstanding."

19. "When you know an actor was chosen for the role for their fame and not for the casting."
