I recall some scenes on the Braveheart Blu-ray that were crazy out of focus.

Probably the only scene in the whole movie where I felt it broke the suspension of disbelief. Fortunately it only lasted a few seconds but man, it felt like those old monster movies from the 60s.
This is a good answer. I hate that shot.
it would be great if they didnt hold on the alien with the quivering hands
Not a great film by any means but this is a classic bad shot:
This is probably the most bafflingly awful shot I've seen in a big-budget studio film - plenty of stuff here that turned out really badly, but the intent is at least understandable. But how could anybody involved with this think a character running on-camera from offscreen in a scene like this looked at all presentable?

It looks like the alien is performing a magic trick.

And the way he comes in completely out of sync with the rest of the action and screams. It's actually hilarious.
The Dark Knight Rises.
Are you kidding? Wanna know before I answer.

I think the kill scene was even worse, it just looks so much like a guy in a rubber suit

Haven't seen the film, but that gif reminds me of videos games. I like it.

This scene is a goddamn classic.
So bad, so ham-fisted.
oh yes, this one too.
i liked her too. idk.
watched that scene yesterday.
Pacino should have won an oscar for either part 1 or 2.

The movie is great, but this scene was trying to tie the main character with a aspect of Philly that he really didn't interact all that much with or have seem to have any interest in.
I don't put ESB on a pedestal as much as some people do, but goddamn if Vader showing up in the dining room when Lando betrays our heroes never fails to make me laugh. I can just imagine how they set it up
Lando "Ok Vader, you wait here, have some sandwiches if you like"
Vader "Say no more, I'm hungry like the wolf"
Lando "Ok Vader, you wait here, have some sandwiches if you like"
Vader "Say no more, I'm hungry like the wolf"

I disagree here. Vader isn't really much of one for getting his hands dirty if he can avoid it. I can totally imagine him delegating as much shit as possible. " Fetch boy". He treats Lando as his dog. Sure he could have just up and fetched Solo himself, but where's the fun in that?

Didn't robot chicken do something with regards to this? Yeah I can't imagine Vader being one for dinner table small talk!
EDIT: Yes...

rofl that was great

It stands out more in the gif but it's much better in the movie due to the cut https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRXyWtv-huc.

I dont get how people can hate that batman movie. I thought it was the best in the series and was the only time I thought batman wouldnt make it
It's just silly-looking. I really don't get the decision of using dirtbikes for such a pivotal "Rocky" scene. It's the low point of the movie for me.

I loved this scene in the movie. The .gif makes it look lame but in the movie I thought it was a great moment.
I think this scene would be perfect without the hands, which are blatantly more costume looking than the head

this fight could have been cool but it was filmed and choreographed so badly

Yeah I've just been watching all the old Star Wars the past few weeks for the first time and this was really poor, but I suppose they were only starting out and the saber fighting choreography was well improved in ESB and the RoTJ so I can forgive it, although in the context of this movie it was really bad.

I wasn't a fan of the helicopter shot at the end of Episode VII. It should of ended with just the shot of

I remember a good theory about this scene suggesting that they just having a conversation (since it's obvious obi-wan will lose) but they do a crappy slow paced fight because that is what is expected when a jedi and a sith meet.
Obviously it's not that, but it's good head canon.

Return of the Jedi.
Boba Fett in the background makes this close to great though.
That's just the classic force kick.

Yes I am also bothered by that, or just with the shot they had before that one.

I fucking love that part.
This part in T2, when the T-1000 is dragged behind the car.
This is a massive nitpick, but I was always bothered by in Mad Max: Fury Road, in the opening scene we cut from this really wide shot,
to a closer similarly framed shot in the next frame.
It's super jarring, it looks like it should be one long take -- with the vehicles just getting close to camera before Max's car is taken out, but considering the fantastic looking stunt at the end of the shot I guess it wasn't possible, it's just weird to me when a shot cuts to another shot that looks so similar without any other coverage in-between it.
This is more an editing thing than a framing or blocking thing, but it's still seems a little strange to me.

Cringing hard since 2001.

Ugh, I said so i the TFA thread too, Guiness is just phoning it way worse than Harrison Ford in some of his movies. He looks so in pain and so ashamed...

I love this moment. Probably the best scene in the whole movie for me. The build up to that moment is fantastic.
yup, its unfair to just post the gif without context
also that gif seems to slow down at the end and you can see the alien's hands just being held in place shaking
it doesnt look like that in the movie
What ? Incredible scene even if it was a little too long.

correct about everything
the casino dummy reminds me of sherlock holmes' smarter brother, but since it's a comedy i'm not sure was it meant as a joke or not.

I will hate the "falling down the stairs" shot in Psycho until the day I die.
Goddammit I was JUST about to post this...
This was on earlier.Why was this not posted yet?
That shot doesn't even stick out as a particularly bad or out of place one.
Before that they just had an hilariously long sequence of people getting pushed by strong wind, with all sorts of comedic bits.
Cringing hard since 2001.
No way, i like that shot.
