Mine has to be when the main character is getting choked out and they desperately reach their hand for a weapon and find a rock or a knife on the ground to turn the tide.
It's been done so many times and is so tired that I get angry when it happens. Especially if its during the climax of the movie. Just got reminded of this when I watched Emily the Criminal, not that I expected great action scenes.
Do filmmakers think people are satisfied with this? It's so lazy.
What other tropes need to go?
