The strings swell, the lead actors face gets all weird, he starts spit-speaking to the love interest and I just can't stop giggling. It's so telegraphed and obvious.

No thanks, I'll take the next cab. Thanks anyway.

The fake-out jump scares annoy me more.
If you're gonna go out of your way to scare me by using the loud noise cheap tactic at least pay it off with something actually scary instead of "oh no, it was just a cat!"

Yea those are totally obnoxious. You can almost count how like, in modern thriller movies, the first lead-in to a jump scare will not be anything.

Hate movies that rely on jump scares to build an illusion of tension. So cheap and lazy.

Love movies that don't need tom hanks crying or cats jumping out of dark corners or CGI goof-ballery. Just good honest story-telling.

I don't hate movies. I hate producers and executives who invest money and insist on asinine changes/editing.

I was just about to ask what happened to teh bollz.

I like him. He gets Alcest. I like Alcest. Dunno why more tsp fans don't listen to Neige. Got a very dark romantic kinda feel. Sorry that was a horrible description.

LMAO You actually got all aggressive and were willing to get violent with some old-man in his 60's for having his phone on before the movie?

You're an awful person dude...

I don't have any. I've only seen one of his films.
AFAIK, you can only buy them directly from his website. They are pretty hard to find on pirate sites.

you should've broken his neck.
it makes a bit of noise, but he'll be quiet after that, and you can enjoy the rest of the movie in peace.
