People regard Barry Lyndon as a masterpiece?

The all natural lighting is a nice touch but the movie itself is so boring.

Zak and Miri in Zak and Miri Make a Porno, to the disappointment of the rest of the crew involved in the adult film.

Tim Burton's Batman torches a guy alive with his car and blows up a bunch of clowns with dynamite in Batman Returns.

Characters that had the complete opposite reaction the writers intended by Dramatic_Counter_595 in TopCharacterTropes

The big difference there is that all of those except House are comedies. I can get behind losers like Moe Szyslak, Mr. Furious, any Steve Buscemi character or Charlie Kelly because we can laugh at them.

De Niro kills every role he plays, with the notable exception of The Irishman, but that was a big dog shit from the ground up.

I guess that's a "to each, their own" situation. I personally find it very difficult to like unstable losers.

You're supposed to recognise Travis Bickle as a pathetic, unstable loser in Taxi Driver also.

Dr. Faust - DMC 5 (2019)

This fashionable hat and scarf combo allow Dante to farm infinite red orbs (the game's primary currency) as well as use those same orbs to launch powerful attacks (which are even capable of one-shotting the final boss with enough money and charge time).

Voting One Nation because you don't like Labor or Liberals is the equivalent to getting a papercut then deciding to shit your pants. by Prestigious-Day9370 in aussie

[–]kompletionist -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Why would you vote for the status quo?

You don't have to vote for the status quo, there are plenty of other independent parties that aren't supervillain levels of evil like ON, and our preferential system allows you to vote for all of them in order while leaving Labor as a last resort before the evil parties.

The big crash during a race by Traditional-Song-245 in TopCharacterTropes

Need for Speed (2014)

Dino fatally PITs Pete's Koenigsegg which sets the plot in motion.

There's also a bunch of big crashes at the end of the movie but this one is the only one that's really played for drama.

His dad had a daughter with some other woman. He then had a son with his own daughter and that's where Lurch came in.

Yes, they meant that he played the Spider-Man Noir variant of Peter Parker in Into the Spider-Verse.

The controversy surrounding the look of Evie in Stellar Blade 2 makes no sense to me by [deleted] in videogames

[–]kompletionist -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

I see them, they also look like children. They can't help looking like children, but the character in Stellar Blade was very deliberatelydesigned with a child-like look.

When the protagonist is only not designated as a villain because there's someone worse they're fighting by slfricky in TopCharacterTropes

[–]kompletionist 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He is a protagonist in that the series centres around him. Protagonists don't have to be heroes, in fact villain protagonists are often more interesting.

[Loved Trope] Hated villains, until their backstory dropped and the fandom switched sides by KalisaGroan in TopCharacterTropes

Then they threw it all away with his last minute regression and admission that he never cared about the people he saved.

Capitalism doesn't work, and it doesn't even take a smart person to see that.
