you know what trope i just go maximum apeshit for every goddamn time?
when a character has to improvise a weapon under urgent circumstances.
- im talking characters in handcuffs using them to garrote enemies
- characters swinging objects that are WILDLY un-aerodynamic (a table, a a garden gate.)
- or throwing objects that are wildly un-damaging (an inflatable chair, a bunch of flowers)
- throwing something soft and light over someones head as a brief distraction
- using the ENVIRONMENT against their adversary (pulling a rug from under them, slamming a door in their face)
- using weapons that are broken or not working properly, or using them the ‘incorrect’ way (using an empty gun as a bludgeon, Elizabeth Swann pulling that sword off the wall but it still being attached to the wall display)
- swordfights using anything BUT swords
- people macgyvering wildly ‘low-tech’ improvised contraptions to defeat massively high-tech and well organised attacks
- loading a blunderbuss or shotgun with something commonplace and either not-at-all dangerous or surprisingly lethal (sand, cutlery, buttons)
- i love this trope so much
