I'd like to see a movie where they plan one big score, pull it off. Then proceed to pull a dozen heists because let's face it, they're just theives.

You'll have to forgive me if some of these have been mentioned. I tried grunching through most of the thread.

Hero diffuses bomb with 1 - 2 secs to spare. Why not 30 - 60 mins?
Also, any half-decent bombmaker should know by now to have a detonator that goes off at say 00.37 or something random.

Guy finds bomb say under-the-bed, under-the-car, in a bag-pack and subsequently the bomb detonates at that moment.

Guy throws his weapon down for a fair fist fight.

Prophecy of a child who shall be the downfall of the evil ruler. (hasn't been used in a while, saw it in Kung fu Panda 2 recently). Also, trusting someone else to finish off the prophesied bringer of you doom.

Bosses who employ advisors who are either completely inept or very sharp but the Boss disregards every piece of advise offered.

Baddie kidnaps damsel and plans a wedding to take place in a week's time. Giving the hero enough time to find her.
Meanwhile, a nice quiet civil ceremony could have been arranged within 2 hrs.

Self-destruct sequences.

Self-destruct sequences that can be initiated by button or command named 'Self-Destruct'

Undercover baddies who have tattoos, identifying markers and dress codes unique to their organization. (Think, Hitman)

"Look, before you kill me, will you at least tell me what this is all about?" or "But before I kill you, there's just one thing I want to know."

Giving the hero a last request.

Not a movie or even a cliche, just annoying.
Hellmuth pretending to play online by typing a gazillion words per min in that UB ad.

Somehow 90% of all antagonists between 1960 - 1999 were German.

In Inception, Eames (Tom Hardy) said he was gonna sit this one out when they found out Fisher's mind was militarized, but then he gets talk back into it.

You need to get out!

So many time in film, a warning will be given to a character that they need to get out and leave the scene ASAP, or they will be killed. That person never listens and hangs around for no reason and eventually gets crushed. so tilting.
Famous example: Drive, driver tells shannon that the mob is coming to his place to kill him, and shannon just waits till the next morning to leave lol

I'd say 1980-2005-ish they were all British.

Psychics seeing trouble ahead for our heroes then refusing to disclose the details.

Kind of nitpicking here but I would think that a movie would have to be around for more then a couple of years to be considered a "famous example".

Seinfeld

Protagonist male lounging around the house in a worn out old grey college shirt that just says "Harvard" or "Maryland" or whatever. It's like it kills two birds with one stone.

1) He's the "everyman" on Saturday just lounging around in an old shirt. He's rugged.
2) He's educated, though. He's an educated everyman. He's Michael Keaton. He's Harrison Ford. You know. That type. A man's man, but also scholastic enough that he can hold a conversation with women, too. You want to be just like this guy.

I'd like to see a movie where they plan a big score and get busted before/during the heist and spend the rest of the movie in jail talking about where they ****ed up.

Every single dead person has to go through an autopsy, because America's Best must be sure the cause of death is "severe blood loss due to mandibular and occipiedal damage causing the victim to axiphiate on his blood" because "died of 15 gunshots to the face" doesn't sound professional enough. Apparently they have to make sure they can't rule out foul play first.

No you don´t

OMG yes.

"I went shopping today, and when i got home I went nuts and strangled my wife"
"You did WHAT?"
"yeah I went shopping today"

Protag drives his car into a wall or something to gain the upper hand over the villain.
