In just two weeks their thread received over 8,000 responses with people posting numerous tropes we see in almost every movie - check out some of the most annoying ones in the gallery below!

Fight scenes with multiple attackers. They're all so polite, waiting for their friends to get their ass kicked before engaging. In reality you get jumped by everyone at the same time.

Punching four people in the face and not feeling anything. I've been in a fight and won. Even then it hurts like hell. No one 'wins' in a fight, they just get injured the least.
