Movie Cliches you are Tired of Seeing

[Lord Beasley]

People in ancient times always have British accents

Every character either being a crack shot or unable to shoot has been a tiresome cliche for me.

Like, you either have guys who literally hit every single thing they ever shoot at, or guys who fire 300 rounds and don't hit shyt.


Also, why is the hero always better at hand-to-hand combat than the villain? What is it about being a good guy that somehow make you the better fighter in the climatic scene?

hollywood should make a movie called cliche, where every single cliche happens

For 'hood movies: "Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood

For horror movies: Scary Movie, Cabin in the Woods

 

[Mr. Manhattan]

The neighbor is always an a$$hole, or has an annoying kid

The boss of the main character's workplace is always the child of Satan

 

[Bugsmoran]

Mother b!tch slapping the son in the middle of a argument

 

[Walter H White]

Main character kills 100 people to exact revenge against the guy who killed his loved one or family member. Gets to the villain and villain tells him "you're just like me". Main character tells villain that he's not like him. Instead of killing him, he spares him and will let the justice system take care of him. Villain then reaches for a conveniently placed weapon ... you know the rest.

 

[David_TheMan]

Hidden bad ass beating everyone up who is a man in his physical prime and removing their mask to either be a woman or a old man who has no business doiing the shyt they just did.

 

[Huellz Santana]

A weirdo, nerd, or geek do the most to a good looking chick that's out of his level and treats him like garbage, and at the same time ignores the chick that's also on the same level of him that appreciates him for who he is.

this is pretty realistic​

People in ancient times always have British accents

not even ancient times, half the nazis in schindlers list sounded like they came straight outta London

 

[BillyOcean]

General/President : * After nuclear missile launch, fukking over large group of people and/or protagonist* "God help us all"

Superhero loosing their power/suit/ability for 1/2 to 3/4 of movie

 

[southern.girl]

Man and woman hate each other, are having a huge argument, then suddenlly start kissing and have sex

I've never had angry sex in my life. Like how do you even transition from angry to horny?

-1 on 5+ fights where for some reason dudes don't swarm the one guy, they all patiently wait to get their ass beat/dropped one by one

Lol. Dudes patiently waiting their turn like they're in a spades game.

 

[Luke Cage]

The biggest cliche is them presenting cops etc as non racist good guys..

This is actually true. I'm not saying all cops are crooked or bad. But I haven't met one that didn't curse like a sailor. They should have them at least drop an F bomb every 5 seconds.

 

[3rdWorld]

Dont know if this qualifies, but theyll have i.e. a South African speaking in his vernacular playing a West African or something.

 

[714562]

Telling a joke or making a quip during a life or death situation like a shoot out.

Movie conversation is too quippy in general. Like, every conversation in every superhero movie just devolves into the heroes roasting each other.

 

[WesCrook]

Shootouts in warehouses with both opposing groups hiding behind large wooden crates.

And at some point, one of the good guys yells out "cover me!" before he runs out in the open.

 

[storyteller]

- The final scare aka after everything has wrapped up and the evil has been stopped in a horror movie, they just sorta squeeze in a jump scare to say "but there will be a sequel...and we're letting you know in the laziest way possible."

- Major villains are still hiring completely useless henchmen for James Bond, John Wick, etc. to run through like complete fodder...it'd be nice to see more formidable hired help than one or two guys.

- Female lead catches a Male character randomly doing something that sheds a new light on who he is as a person "Oh I didn't know you served at a soup kitchen" "that's right, been volunteering my whole life" ...foh
