A cliche you usually see in a horror movie. If a girl takes her top of, then there's a 95% chance that she's going to die.
Not to mention every other horror movie cliche.
The non believer dies.
There's usually an asshole, who does something that puts the group in danger, then later sacrifices himself to save them.
They always spilt up, and check out every single scream and loud noise they hear.
There is usually a girl that is sent of on her own, wearing hardly anything, and has the smallest weapon possible. (Ends up surviving.)
Then there is another person, who is sent of with a mass amount of weapons and survival stuff. (Ends up dying.)
If there is a doctor, scientist or professor involved, then they usually end up dying by there own creation.

Does that still happen? I thought humanity had outgrown that kind of rubbish.thenumberthirteen said:
OT: People who can't decide whether they want to be stupid or awesome. Case in point: Cameron Diaz in Knight and Day.
"I'm a screaming bimbo! Now I'm being useful! Now I'm screaming again! Now I'm in love with Tom Cruise! Now I hate him! Now I'm useless again! Now I'm saving the day!"
People can't aim. WHATSOEVER. I have the feeling the main villain is standing on the side shouting, "Yes, my trained army men, aim perfectly below his feet to make him feel moderately uncomfortable and discontent! I am a genius!"
Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Wanted, The Matrix. Pretty much any movie with bullets.

The shoe-horned love plot. As in the kind that is rather, unneeded for plot advancement, hell even Avatar which used the love story to move forward could have used something else.
However nowhere is this pointless addition more glaring than Michael Bay's Transformers series. Here's a tip, I'm not interested whether or not Shia's bumbling cute geekiness wins him the heart of the girl, I'm interested in how the Autobots are going to get their shit in order and help save us from the Decepticons.

Shoe horned love interests and pointless conspiracys by the government that causes more problems then they say. Bonus points if the Protaginist is a Solider/Mercanery who falls victim to his own employer's conspiracy.
"Who shot who?"
A struggle for a gun, then the camera only focuses on the two people's faces as we hear a gunshot, they both look concerned, then the bad guy goes limp and we see our hero holding the gun.
It's so damn overdone and not even engaging anymore.

Used to do that a lot.Then i fuguired i shouldnt be trying to prove stuff to random people not reffering to you.manythings said:
When the "good" guy encounters the "bad" guy, and there needs to be some sort of speech which always ends with the antagonist dying, despite having the upper hand to begin with. Just bloody shoot them first.
Bad-ass action chicks who display absolutely no hint of human emotion what-so-ever, under any circumstance. I know a few women from the service whom I really would not want to piss off, but guess what they got? Emotions! Hell, sometimes they're even MORE emotional than the non-bad-ass women!
"Yo, Mr. Scientist! Kindly get your nerdy ass over here and retrofit that giant alien death machine so that we manly man who get all the chicks can use it. No, I don't give a shit that you're a chemist specializing in gas-solid nanofilm nucleation, just fuckin' do it!"
The obligatory love interest. Especially annoying when it is obvious they threw one in for the sake of having one.
