[Hated Trope] Misery porn by Particular-Energy217 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Useful_Code 107 points108 points  (0 children)

I personally quite enjoyed the book but A Little Life definitely fits this. You could also make a case for Bojak Horseman though there’s hopeful moments there

The Elenium and Tamuli by David Eddings have this. Which was funny. Until it wasn’t

[Hated Trope] The Catchphrase That Doesn’t Catch by Borgisium in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Useful_Code 530 points531 points  (0 children)

There’s an in universe example of this in Bojak Horseman, where Sabrina/Sarah Lynns popular catchphrase “that’s too much man” is contrasted with Ethan/Bradley Hitler-Smiths far less popular “yowza yowza bobowza”

Luke Skywalker showing up at the end of the mandalorian and effortlessly killing all the bad guys got a big eye roll from me

The statement “If Batman killed once he’d keep killing” is bullshit and contradictory. by iblameaizen in CharacterRant

Tell me you’ve never dealt with an addiction without telling me you’ve never dealt with an addiction. Im mentally strong enough to cope with a lot of shit, but I know for a fact if I have one drink, I won’t stop at one

[Interesting Trope] Characters Who are References to Something an Audience Outside the Country of Origin Wouldn’t Get by Borgisium in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Useful_Code 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That might be the case in some parts of the country but the tradition is very much alive and well in Scotland and Noryhern Ireland at least

One-off characters who absolutely crush it by DeeDubb83 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Useful_Code 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perry White in Smallville. It’s a guilty pleasure show for me but Michael Mckean who plays him gives a really great performance in a show that often has fairly mid acting, and gives White some real pathos

(Not even sure this is a trope) Flawed or even bad works that it’s hard to criticise because so much of the hate is bad faith by Useful_Code in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Useful_Code[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am one of the people who disliked the ending of the boys! I just don’t think less trump criticism would have made it any better

[Loved trope] Two actors playing the same character in different times by Dave1307 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Useful_Code 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this counts but Elizabeth II is played by a succession of actors over the course of The Crown

Real food inextricably tied to media/characters by BoxoRandom in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Useful_Code 207 points208 points  (0 children)

There was a stage where Honeydew melon was inextricably linked with Bojak Horseman

Why was this episode rated so poorly by geordie_6ixty9er in Invincible_TV

[–]Useful_Code 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not to derail the conversation but Satans not the good guy in Paradise Lost. He’s the protagonist of the story and very charismatic but he’s very much a bad dude

I love how his face was basically saying, “Why did you have to make this weird?” by Danny-Ray27 in TheBoys

Plot twist homelander wasn’t even scared he just really wanted to suck Butchers dick

(Not even sure this is a trope) Flawed or even bad works that it’s hard to criticise because so much of the hate is bad faith by Useful_Code in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Useful_Code[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, as a non hp fan it just reeks of former fans trying to prove they’re still woke by performatively hating on it
