character being all “you expect me to do X?” Gilligan Cut to character doing X
the squad gets captured and interrogated separately, and they’re all telling equally terrible, completely contradictory lies
people completely missing the completely unsubtle, very visible dangerous thing in the room with them
alternatively, people absolutely seeing the completely unsubtle, very visible dangerous thing in the room with them and just not giving a shit
bonus points if it’s a beleaguered minimum wage employee who just goes about their business like “yep same shit as always”
someone pretending they don’t know another character is eavesdropping, only to casually reveal at the end of the scene that they know (*leaving* “tell tom that he can come out now” *tom drops from the ceiling in spy gear, irritated*)
choosing to deal with the villain by just leaving them alone in a room with another character
the “hands go down” trope
example: “any questions?” *everyone’s hands go up* “…that AREN’T sarcastic?” *everyone’s hands go down*
how could all y'all forget “ACT NATURAL!”
These are all great but let’s not forget two characters giving extremely biased flashbacks to the same event that each paint the other as an incompetent loon
i would like to respectfully add: scenes where a character walks into a room, sees something scary, and turns around and walks out with no reaction or change of expression
Bonus points if he DOES react, but it’s to close the door and tell his buddy “it’s for you.”
What she means: In literally any other show, the two trees intertwining symbolizing Bright Mac and Buttercup’s love would come off as cheesy and implausible. But in MLP, in a world where the power of love can be amplified enough to overpower the goddess of the sun, saying that the “magic of love” caused such a phenomenon is completely justifiable and plausible. So not only was their love powerful enough that they created a work of natural art unlike anything else in Equestria, but it outlived them, and still stands for their children and parents to remember them by. And this is only the second time this goddamn show has made me cry about a fucking tree and I really need to lay down for a while.

Whenever you have the chance and if you haven't done it before, can you doodle a tiger shark? But like. A tiger with fins and a shark tail or a shark with paws and a tigers tail?
There’s this video of a lil baby whale shark following scuba divers around because she thinks the bubbles emitted from their air tanks were plankton like I’m so proud of her.
Reblog if you’re proud of this beautiful baby
THERE SHE IS
this is one of the purest things ever captured on video.
