Iraq was a fun deployment in a weird way. I missed home so fucking bad but all the black market dvds I could buy for a few bucks just so I could play that shit with my fellow 91Fs back at the green zone while we did our best to unfuck small arms.

Talking about your time in the military after age 19 is emberassing fämäläm
The underdog getting his ass kicked the whole movie only to come back in the end and beat the super baddie no one else can take on.
Pretty much anything with underdogs if it's done right. But who doesn't love an underdog?
The protagonist is mastering a technique throughout the movie and then he ends up effortlessly using it in combat.
Like African keengz?

>>71166179
>Advanced alien civilization where the planet is oddly barren and simplified but the people are highly sophisticated.
Smug characters get what's coming to them.
Scenes in movies where the unsuspectingly overpowered/overskilled character gets mocked by others and he makes a mess of them in a fight/competition.
>>71166179
Is the hero's journey considered a trope?
I like a good ol classic Hero's journey.

Don't listen to the jackasses. You went to far away places, got to handle expensive machinery, got to experience real danger, and lived through it.
I hope you came back unfucked.

I wouldn't say T2 has an unsuspecting character, Arnold may be naked, but he is built like a fucking tank.
Biker dude was an idiot for messing with anyone built like that and the balls to walk around naked demanding clothes.

>I wouldn't say T2 has an unsuspecting character,
As in, unsuspecting by the ones who mock the character. It wasn't until Arnold refuses to flinch at the cigarette butt burn on his chest that everyone around him really starts getting scared. After all, at first people only thought of him as weird but still human.

>important character seems to die

>"You're hugging me too tight, I can't breath"
>>71170501
it's literally just a way to artificially create drama and tension, this shit is the worst
it only works when they don't overdo it and it would fit with the tone of the story for the hero to sacrifice themselves, but even then, it's REALLY IMPORTANT that it's not dragged out, because that just makes it terrible
>>71170216
Haha my wifes son likes that as well

Judge Dredd
Him being Judge Dredd and me, being a nerd that knows the character kinda spoils it, but the normies fell for the "they hate each other now but at the end, Love."
>>71169591
same here broseph
>>71170568
I don't care, I feel comfort, as if I'm able to regain something too precious that I thought lost, or to feel wanted so bad I could even come back from death.
>>71170651
but they never do anything to suggest that they'd become romantically involved, normies only thought they might because normies expect every movie to be cliched as fuck
>>71169923
that movie was very underrated
>dream within a dream
i'm not talking about that shitty inception movie, just scenes where a character is obviously having a nightmare, waking up only to find that the nightmare followed him/her and then finally waking up again for the last time
i hate coma/insanity episodes, literally the most cancerous episodes in history
>Strong female hero that doesn't need no man.
>>71170864
this, in RPGs where you get character customization i always make my character a female warrior then play as an asshole

>>71170946
I love ambiguous endings so much.
>>71166179
whatever the end of The Mist was... i really liked that
>>71171102
Tragic irony and utter despair.
I feel that whole movie was just an excuse to have that ending. Everything up to that point was OK, but the ending was goddamn great.
>>71171244
so much better than Stephen King's other ending
>oh no the forces of good are overwhelmed and all hope is lost
>God intervenes
It's not even deus ex machina, it's just deus
>>71170946
That legitimately terrified me when I first saw that episode in high school. And there's something extremely unnerving about Tony's fantasy during his coma.
