Here's another: in just about any movie that features the President, he will eventually say "I am the President of the United States!"
If I were the president, I would say that every five minutes.

In every romantic comedy it takes the sage advise of a 9 year old for the adults to get there hearts pointed in the right directions.

In the event of a serious emergency the lives of family pets must be put before those of any family members.

Re: Movie Cliches

Career criminals and cops are very physically fit and well trained in martial arts.


The final battle between good guy and bad guy will be a fistfight with no outside interference, despite the presence of multiple heavily armed 3rd parties who've spent the last 10 minutes trying to shoot each other.

Re: Movie Cliches

Anyone who gets drunk in a major Hollywood film is always a silly, goofy, lovable drunk. No one ever turns into a violent bigot who wants to pan-fry a poodle.

Dystopian futures all have flares burning visibly from smokestacks and sparks from random arc-welders bouncing off the ground. Also, it is always night.

Re: Movie Cliches

When somebody says to a injured (or dying) person or somebody in trouble don't worry, it'll be alright or it'll be ok. that to me is the one mostly used.

I never seen a car blow up into a fire-ball. Everything, no matter how impossible blow up in a huge explosion of flames: bridges, sail boats, trees.
