Movie cliches you hate

[E-mantheseeker]

Cliches are awful, most times they make a movie you're watching too predictable pr unintentionally funny here are just a few of mine...

"I nicked the bad guy's arm/head he must be dead, lets walk away aimlessly/get naked"

If you decide to get naked with someone else or by yourself, the killer who is somewhere in your state/country will instantly find a way behind your shower curtain/bed.

Your stalker will arrive at your house and hop atop of you, at this exact moment your love interest comes in to surprise you. No matter how much clothes you have on, your love interest will run away super fast crying when another second of standing, or questioning would have revealed the truth.

What are some of your most hated movie cliches that ruin a movie for you?

 

[ChocoFace]

1 man vs an army.
Guess who wins?
Oh and the army personnel must be drunk or high, as they simply can not hit their target(s).

 

[Damien the Pigeon]

"Oh my God! I was the bad guy the whole time?! What a twist that was!"

[BlackIronGuardian]

Over-acting. I realise that's not a cliché, but it happens in enough films for me to be SICK OF IT

Even though there are bullets everywhere,they hit everyone but the protagonists.

 

[TheDustyBanana]

A pointless love interest, especially in an action movie.

 

[scnj]

When the main character takes down every guy with one bullet, but when he gets to the main villain, he suddenly forgets how to shoot straight.

 

[Phase_9]

How come the minority always dies first in horror movies.

Why are both the hero and the villain expert, evenly matched martial artists, but only for the final fight. I mean, if the hero is so fucking badass, how does he die almost every three seconds UNTIL he faces a martial arts master?

Romantic comedies, CHOOSE A SIDE!

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

Happy endings. 'nuff said.

 

[cuddly_tomato]

Love scenes. They are always so damn 'perfect'. You never hear the women say "not there, not there up a bit!" or the guys saying "OUCH watch your nails that's sensitive!".

Explosions. I really despise how all movies need to have explosions in them these days to make things more dramatic. The point at which I realized Hollywood was batshit crazy for explosions was in Kevin Costners historical aberration Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. No Kevin, bombs were not used in Richard the 3rds day, this is bollocks [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAd_Zdv85i0&feature=related] (except for having Charles Manson play Little John, that was cool).

Having English people play evil naer'do wells. George Lucas is the arse behind this particular cliche, in every episode of Star Wars there is a genocidal English person wiping out the universe.

 

[Princeps senatus]

One word, amnesia (not if done well).

Seriously, I love you for that, thank you.

 

[RavingLibDem]

Even though there are bullets everywhere,they hit everyone but the protagonists.

that one

 

[Cpt_Oblivious]

Love interest in an action movie or too much dialogue.
Oh and the happy ending in a weird depressing film (I'm looking at you Butterfly Effect)

 

[Terror_666]

The love interest that is shoehorned in to everything.
The fact that nobody goes "Oh, shit" or "Ah, Fuck" when they die.

 

[hxcfreak]

never haveing to reload your gun

 

[BubbleGumSnareDrum]

"I've got a bad feeling about this."

 

[P1p3s]

people surviving helicopter crashes - seriously it just doesn't happen, when they hit the ground and go up in flames your dead, your just dead.

again with the shoehorning love interest - grrr it's so pointless! A woman can watch a good action flick without freaking out if no one has a crush on someone else!!

Sequals that try TOO hard to recreate the elements of the original so that it ends up being a parody not a sequal, I can see you hiding there HELLBOY2!
