Things you're tired of seeing in movies.
Murdock
The minus world
I'm tired of seeing movies trying to compete with each other by using trope elements. (villains letting themselves get captured, ect...)
Zombies, vampires and warewolves.
CGI blood in action movies.
Scores being composed by Hans Zimmer.
Reboots/Remakes.
Pop culture spoof movies. (Scary Movie, Epic Movie, Disaster Movie, Starving games...)
Superhero movies that try to Modernize the source material and make it dark and gritty.
Speed editing, Jump cuts and shaky cam.
So as the thread is titled. What are you tired of seeing in movies?

Car chase movies. The Fast and the Furious was okay, Gone in 60 Seconds was okay, but since those two, the car chase genre movie has kind of become dull. I can deal with the Transporter movies, though.
Remakes that are really reimaginings that just completely fail to live up to what the original was. They use the name purely for brand recognition. (Oh, wait, that's pretty much every remake... oops.)
Woody Allen
The lack of directors of diverse backgrounds.
Lack of fresh ideas (see above for remakes/reboots)
The thought that you just paid so much money for movie ticket prices only to be disappointed halfway through that this isn't such a great movie (for most flicks that come out, not all).
The fact that the same actor could have been replaced by someone with lesser pay demands/diva-ness or sometimes no acting experience like the pirate actor from Captain Phillips could have pulled off the same thing.
The use of so many voice actors by people who already make lots of money who take jobs away from dedicated people who master the skill of voice artistry. It's just animation and it needs a voice. If you want to make it marketable, make a good movie that could be marketed with graphics, trailers, commercials, and a good word of mouth potential and then you have a franchise that people can follow.

Wrong? It's completely criminal!
I must agree!
I definitely have had Woody on my never-want- to-see-again list for years already.
I may add:
Animals being killed; always, always bothers me. A lot.
As far as directors go I don't think it's a matter of lack of diversity but more of a matter of studios only hiring them to film the same old stuff.
As far as voice actors go you're absolutely right. Why is Bradley Cooper voicing Rocket Raccoon? He's not a voice actor and Marvel only cast him to have an A-list name on the cast. Whereas an experienced voice actor could've gotten the break of a lifetime.
Heroes or villains apparently dying, but hey, they are not dead after all.
Heroes proving their worth after being dismissed by their surroundings.
It is all good, but has been done to death in hundreds if not thousands of films.
Make that three. I don't get the fuss. And I find her "look at me, aren't I goofy" shtick in interviews, even worse.
Remakes without some identity of their own { it should be done like Philadephia - High Society, The Bourne Identity miniseries vs The Bourne Identity }
Remaking old tv shows into movies and they they are totally not the same and more often cr*p.
I've probably missed a few there as well. At this point I'm just sick of them.
But ant-man will be portrayed by the legendary Brian Fantana! (aka Paul Rudd)
Overwhelming in a negative way. I can't go to the cinema and not see 5 showings of various superhero movies. ~X(
LOL, the only film which I've seen attempt to explain smoking was The Client.
But that was made Joel Schumacher who is responsible for driving Batman into the ground with campiness and causing reboots and now another reboot in 2015. How many times can the movie studios give the middle finger to fans as though they don't matter?
Another ridiculous thing is that some of these famous movie actors are using Kickstarter to fund their own projects and still turn up a profit. Kickstarter was made for fans and up-and-coming directors, not established ones. That's when it becomes e-begging instead of fundraising.
There is not a single wrong letter in this post!
