Annoying Movie Cliches

Here are some of the movie clichés I’ve noticed.

1)Whenever someone starts coughing in a movie, you know that’s a sign that person is going to die later on. In real life I see people cough all the time; it doesn’t mean they’re going to die.

2) In real life if I have a nightmare I just open my eyes, turnover and go back to sleep. But in the movies when someone has a nightmare they immediately have to spring up like Jason from Friday the 13th covered in sweat and hyperventilate into the camera…while the clueless wife says ”go back to bed honey”.

3) In the morning the mom makes this huge breakfast for the entire family, but instead of eating it, the dad and kids just run downstairs take a one bite of the toast and one sip from the orange juice and they take off like a bat out of hell; leaving all that food to waste. Can’t those people get up a little earlier to eat breakfast? They must have a lot of money to waste all that food. If that was my mom she would have said “sit your asses down and eat that damn breakfast!!”

4) Whenever there is an explosion you’ll always see the protagonist run towards the camera in slow motion with his mouth wide open, and then proceed to do an Olympic dive off screen to avoid the flames burning his cheeks.

5) When coming home from grocery shopping you’ll most likely see a huge French bread and a bundle of untrimmed carrots sticking out the top of the grocery bag. Can’t they put their fruits and vegetables in some plastic?

6) How come every nine or ten year old has to be some super computer genius hacker with the skills to control practically everything in the city. One time I seen this kid start up and control a bulldozer from his fisher price looking computer. A FREAKIN BULLDOZER?!!! As Sam Kinison would say “I’m in HELL…OHH…OHHHH!!!


OK, that’s all I can think of for now. Tell me if you have noticed any movie clichés.

Most annoying action movie cliche EVER:

25 bad guys with automatic weapons can't seem to hit the one good guy who proceeds to take them all out with a hand gun.

I mean, even in the instance of trained mercs made up of ex green beret and navy seals....they can't hit a dude cause he's running? Come ON! Fire a few feet in front of the dude..

....when the hero, the coolest dude ever, falls in love with a girl. The girl gets captured and he goes and saves her.

This sounds like the opening scene of Casino Royale.

it could happened if you're steven seigal! or better yet, chuck norris those'nt need a gun just his chin.

1. if a scene is set in Paris, it doesn't matter where the room is, it will always overlook the Eiffel Tower...

2. the two lovers have just been at it like bunnies, yet when they are done, if the female sits up on the bed, she always pulls the covers over her puppies. if the man has to leave the bed, he kind of drags the covers with him until he is off camera.

3. the hero or soldier has just fought a war or some bad @ss fight with a lot of courage and feeling no pain. but when the nurse is cleaning his wounds he winces and whines like a girl.

4. anything Arny has ever said in a movie

People wake up from a nights sleep and their hair is prefect.

NY being destroyed by monsters/aliens/natural disasters...

If you believe Movies and TV then 95% of the world being really good looking.

when the slut in the movie runs up stairs(i think to my self- "stupid ^^^^^ run out the back door knowing the ^^^^er is right behind her.

yeah, and the chick lying next to the guy dont look like a zombie in the morning and her makeup is all neat.

AVP:R

when a military chick knows how to use every gun, tanker vehicle or choppa in the movie.

When ever a Native American is on screen he always looks up to the sky and sees an Eagle flying overhead with a screech that echos through the valley with a flute playing in the background.

Heres some of my faves....

* Women always end up living whilst the guy dies right near the end , it tries to be emotional but most movies these days suck so much you can't wait for them to die *

_________________________________

* crappy horror movies being impatient and showing the creatures or monsters right at the begging leaving no expectation or anticipation , the movie script and acting sucks so theres no longer a reason to watch *

_____________________________

* movies trying to copy great film icons and movie plots over and over again and failing every time *

____________________________

* directors expecting to bring a little humor to movies when the fat chick dies but really the movies that bad shes the only one you really care for *

___________________________

* movies that could be awesome , for example ghost rider , daredevil and so on but turn out terrible due to impatient movie makers and overall crappiness. *

__________________________

* opening the mirror in the bathroom cabinet to get something out then shutting it to see a monster or killer behind . Nowadays though after 15 years of doing that they decide that when they shut it the monsters not there but whatever they took out of the cabinet happens to be dropped on the floor so they bend down to pick it up , stand back up and then .. see the serial killer in the mirror.
This leads to fight in the bathroom , always awkward. Then a stupid death.
But for some reason , it never isn't entertaining. *

* Car happens to run out of petrol and stall when the killer , stalker or general nutcase is right behind them *

______________________________

* movies trying to be serious when there funny *

______________________________

* movies making other quotes at movies . Avp-r , " get to the choppa ! ".
Calling a main character Dallas etc.

In a movie called the marine with John Cena and Robert Patrick when these guys are chasing Robert in their crappy car they say " hes like a terminator !! "...

sigh... *

I could go on but I'm tired..
It doesn't work.

.....when a Killer like Jason is chasing a girl, who's running for her life, then she trips and falls, starts to run again, and the slow walking....I mean fast walking Killer catches up and kills her.

....the good guys always wins.

My biggest peeve is when the lone female, who always somehow happens to be the one who is the MOST scared, hears a noise outside in the dark woods... And then walks out into it to investigate.

I hate that too. Yet when you think about it if you hear a noise you don't usually think 'Oh my god there is a killer out waiting to decapitate me, I better lock myself inside and call the cops". I have an over active imagination and sometimes think things like that, but I usually still go investigate.

how about when somebody is climbing up the side of a cliff or crawling around on a ledge about 30 floors up and as they are groping for a handhold a whole bunch of birds fly out screaming.

She WAS a soldier. If she didnt know how to use those things, I think there would be some serious issues.



Movie still sucks.
