Movie Clichés that get on your nerves

I love that scene so much.

hahaha… this is the best! you just know the writers are pleading with the director…

“But Mr. Director! I’ve got reams and reams of back story to relate to the viewer… this is important stuff! Surely the villain can just rattle off 3-4 major plot points in a 3 minute rant.”

At least we usually only get one monologue per movie.
What about the constant oneliners the hero brings out in any given situation… every hero seems to have read the “cool oneliners in every situation for dummies” book before going on to save the world.

No matter what happens, the hero seems to have just the right cheesy line ready (cheesy smirk extra :smirk_cat: ).

1997 Batman and Robin. Everyone’s guilty of the “pun-liners.”

Schwarzenegger mastered this back in the 80s… we should totally start a thread of “famous movie one-liners”… :smile:

was this the infamous “Holy metal island, Batman!” ? :smile:

Astalabeestah, babeh.

the classic:

I’ll be back…

10 points to anyone who can name this movie… :wink:

You’ve got a lot of nerve showing your face around here. Look who’s
talking!

What about “fire in the hole”? The most overused “I’ve-got-a-bigger-gun” phrase ever.

“Well, it can’t get any worse”

“Wait, what’s that rumbling? OH GOD ITS SATAN’S ARMY OF ANGRY CHINCHILLAS! FOR SOME REASON!”

I can’t say I’d class that one as a cliché exactly…:wink:

“Yeah! Come -n- get sum!”

“Did we get it?”

(Answer: No, you did not. Fire another thousand rounds at it or start running, buddy.)

Nooo my thread got completely hijacked by oneliners… who’s the idiot who started this?!

… oh

hahaha… :point_up:

this doesnt really qualify as a cliche, but the accepted action movie practice of two folks being able to relentlessly wail on each other is just goofy…

if anyone has been in an actual fist-fight, they would know that more than a couple of solid blows (as they are portrayed in the movies) would shatter the aggressor’s hand, leaving you with about a 20 second fight scene… :smile:

I…think I might be guilty on that one, bringing up Batman and Robin.

My apologies…

I would love if in some movie the hero in the middle of the bad guy sharing his plan says “Wait a minute I need to go to the toilet, ill be back in a sec” so then the super hero climbs out the bathroom window and runs off saying the villain as a wierdo

Something funny in Armerican production, cars always explode after a crash:
e.g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b12FeJDdsUM&feature=player_detailpage#t=90

But it’s more spectacular for Bollywood:

Fortunately, it’s not the case for us. ^^

Fail sorry

One solid punch will knock almost anyone out instantly, or at least drop them to the floor. If I got punched in the face by a guy the size of a line backer I’d probably just explode, but in movies when this happen they basically just go “ow, stoppet.”
