No, I'm not going to mention TDKR and his escape from the pit back to Gotham, or his (maybe) escape when evacuating the bomb in the bat jet at the end. I feel like those were plausible events in Nolan's Batman universe, and "showing how" would have been boring how the sausage is made stuff. I know those were angry nerd geek outs at the time, but I don't care.
I also won't include the girl power scene in Endgame, because whatever.
1. Justice League - Flash and Cyborg shooting the shit taking their time digging up Superman's corpse in Justice League. At this point, they were very aware of the stakes and that the clock is ticking, right? Yet, they're pulling a Beatle Bailey peeling potatoes not giving a single ****. I get there is supposed to be some exposition and character development here, but either could have had Superman undug and ready for the next scene in about 15 seconds if they chose. And they look little tired and exerted! "Whew! Are my arms TIRED!" They're freaking meta humans!!! This scene sticks with me and just makes me mad every time it enters into my head.
2. Avengers Endgame - Avengers pulling an all night or more cram session trying to figure out what eras they're supposed to time travel back to to get all the Infinity Stones. I get this was supposed to be a little humorous aside to get some laughs and humanize them showing their behind the mask interactions or whatever. But Tony Stark had just used his chatgpt to *CREATE TIME FVCKING TRAVEL*.
Proportionately, it would have taken, what... .75 seconds to figure out what years to go back and get the stones? Yet, in the movie, it was an excruciating cram session of several days by global-level geniuses and very smart people by all appearances ("SHUT THE FRONT DOOR"...a line that I still enjoy despite my frustrations)
