  • It’s a common trope as others have said. It’s more noticeable now because writing isn’t respected in modern media anymore. Scripts are lucky to get a second draft before shooting starts. Writers don’t get the time to workshop ideas to reduce the number of problems like no one talking or everyone being stupid. Another common one is time and space problems with off screen characters. They aren’t always difficult problems to solve, but they can require time to identify and work through them that writers don’t get anymore.
