I hate movie rain. It NEVER rains that hard, that long unless there's a hurricane, in which case there'd be a lot of wind and probably a few less people as the area would have been evacuated from the scene in question. I mean, come on. The actors just take a step outside and it's like they dove into a pool. Water is dripping off their faces like in a shower, and everything they are wearing is soaked. Puddles are massive. If it rained like that, everything everywhere would have been eroded in no time flat. Screw movie rain.
And while on that subject, it's never 'blue' out. Underworld and movies like you, I'm calling you out. The 70's weren't yellow. Life was never sepia. I know they're movies, but... bah.
AND SHAKY CAM IS OVERUSED. Christ. It was awesome in Saving Private Ryan, and in a few others, but when it's used for EVERY show out there, and commercials about banks, I think it's been killed. And it doesn't stop! Never a calm moment, it's like every cameraman out there has palsy or just happens to be the least trustworthy person ever because they forget their freaking tripod.

It's probably because the scene took multiple takes.
I like holy king's response.
Mild flaming really doesn't get me all that annoyed, anyway, and people who like lots of different kinds of music get hatin' from everybody.

You've seen the rain Bigfoot, you've seen it! It's utterly torrential! I'm sure there are times it takes multiple takes but in that fake rain they would be soaked in no time anyway!

I think when it rains in movies, they need to use that much water, otherwise it's hard to see on camera. Just my opinion from personal experience, I could take my video camera outside on a fairly rainy day, and unless the water gets on the lens, it only looks like its sprinkling.

The rain water in movies is actually about fifty percent milk so that it shows up on camera better, even really thick heavy rain doesn't show up that well. Needless to say, the sets smell horrid after a shoot.

It rains that hard in plenty of places that aren't the Northeast. I thought the same before I got out of New England.

Ugh, don't you just hate it when you your flatmate is one of them popular sorts? Always setting trends and making catchphases that everyone is so delighted to follow, and he never does any of the chores but that's ok because he's just such a nice freaking guy!
Wait, have I ranted about my flatmates before? Wait, yes, yes I think I have, nevermind
I feel justified, they're all in fairly long term relationships and valentines day was so bad I decided to go home before the atmosphere gave me diabetes.
The bad news is I can't be bothered to go back up so I'm stuck at home for reading week (and the keyboard is placed in such an awkward position, with no support for my elbows, that I can't help typing really slowly with plenty of typos- and yes it's the keyboard's fault!)
