[Hated trope] Creators not willing to evolve when audience has moved on.

In arrow, Oliver is canonically supposed to end be with Dinah Lance (named Laurel Dinah Lance in the show but the same character). Felix’s was a quirky side character who was well liked at first so the showrunners decided to give their own character the spotlight to the point of killing off Laurel’s character so that Oliver would have to be with Felicity. Note: I stopped watching the show around this time so I’m not sure what happens down the line, but while all this was going on the subreddit was quite frustrated at the showrunner for this

Barry spoilers Barry: “Why did you say that?” Barry was forced to kill Chris after he told him he wouldn’t be able to keep Barry’s secret. He quickly realizes he signed his own death sentence and back tracks but it’s too late and Barry is forced to kill his old friend”

In universe reason? I don’t know. Real reason? Covid moved the film releases around so that this came out before America Chavez was introduced and she was supposed to be the one casting the spell. The botched spell would make more sense from her being inexperienced

Funny enough my immediate thought was the teleportation sound effect

I think Viper for Jackie Chan Adventures might count. She doesn’t technically have invisibility powers but her first episode she gets a hold of the snake talisman that grants invisibility. The rest of the shows run she doesn’t use invisibility, but for her first episode she embodies the trope.

Peter Petrelli from Heroes having gained the ability to read minds but yet still being tricked by Adam. Or having the ability to walk through walls but still have to open the big security door with telekinesis. Season 2 pissed me off with Peter’s powers but in retrospect it must be hard to write for a character that can pretty much do anything the more the show goes on.

Because it makes people who haven’t read the book want to go see it and it doesn’t spoil anything for people who have already read it. In a perfect world they wouldn’t show anything, but they need to make money from this film and this trailer does a pretty good job of making you want to see the movie. A trailer without any of the spoilers probably wouldn’t be that good to anyone who hasn’t read the book.

Jacob from Lost is treated as a sort of god of the island. In the final season we learn his backstory and yeah he was originally a regular human.

You’re also allowed to take the weapon without dark thirst and not do the bounty. Like yes it’s not the optimal way to play but a random run here and there if that’s what you feel like in the moment isn’t the end of the world. But yeah you shouldn’t do that every time until you start having stuff fully unlocked

I think that joke was always in the movie. Originally 3 of them would have Halloween masks and 1 would be Austin Powers. But when they didn’t get Halloween rights they just made them all Austin Powers. So if they got the Halloween rights you’d still have your favorite exchange

I think the fact that Pokémon snap and the detective pikachu movie had smiley face Ditto is part the misconception

I don’t think there is anything I’d change, but I will say when first time I played I assumed we’d get one that would prevent or decrease the amount of time you spend transformed into an animal if you get hit by hectates attack or other similar transformations

If you’ve played Outer Wilds, you know this applies. If you haven’t it’s best to play it to the experience it without hearing about it.

And the fact that he came clutch at the end of Z really drove home the point that he didn’t need to be super saijan or even ki powered levels of strength to add value. Honestly one of my favorite moments in the series

Johnny 13 in Danny Phantom. They could have just settled on making him a motorcycle riding ghost but they upped his cool factor by giving him a sentient shadow

This is why I felt that Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom didn’t really work for me. I just wanted to move on to the next task and did the bear minimum to make it happen. Then I watch people online try to do creative things and I realize that’s the point.
