Bedroom cliche's

- Waking up getting outta bed with perfectly sculpted hair (and makeup for women).

- Nude female having a conversation while sitting up in bed holding the covers over her noobies.

- Alarm goes off and person sleeping throws the alarm clock. We all feel it but is only funny a few hundred times.

- The hidden wall housing all the S & M stuff.
 
Yeah, I always hate it when people who sleep in movies all look like they have been awake and cleaned up instead of having bed head, no makeup and bags under their eyes. And the ladies pulling the cover over their ****ies, even though they JUST got done having sex....is stupid. My experience says otherwise. :lol

I hate the horror movie cliche of the heightened music and tension and then BAM!! A cat runs out... "Aww....dammit Mr. Whiskers! You scared me..." :banghead

I also hate it when someone is stabbed and there is hardly any blood and on TOP of that, they just got gut stabbed and they just drop dead like they've been shot in the forehead.

Also when someone gets shot, and they fly through the air by the force of the bullet. People crumple when shot, it's very undramatic looking in real life.
 
My biggest turn off is when people do things way out of character or even against the physics of the plot just to create drama. It pretty much kills the movie for me because it is a house of cards and when it happens the structure of the movie is over.

One of the scenes like this that comes to mind is in Star Wars, I think Episode II, though I can't remember because I rarely watch I, II, or III at all.
When Amidala lands at Coruscant and an assisination attempt occures in the form of a bomb while they are coming down the gangplank. It turns out it was a decoy and when the real Amidala comes running to her aid, the decoy says "I have failed you" and then dies.

She didn't fail, how could she have failed? Her job was to take one for the team and she succeeded with flying colours. At that moment any possibility of me thinking that was a good movie was gone. Those movies are full of that mess.

Another one that makes me want to put my junk in a blender is in Hancock when the super lady is in the hospital bed and people are attacking. All Hancock has to do is get far away from her and the issue would have been resolved in seconds, he knew this by this time in the movie but he stays until we are treated to the scene when he is struggling on the highway to make .... the ... final... few ... steps ... and then she gets her powers back. It is a cheap way of getting tension and makes all their character building worthless because I am sitting there no longer part of the movie. Because the movie has gone full retard.
 
1. A couple running towards one another from a distance, usually in slow mo.

2. When a couple is running from a bad guy, the woman ALWAYS falls down.

3. When a couple wake up together and they can't tell that they've had sex or not.

4. Falling down drunk men that can still have sex, yet can't remember it the next day.
 
Undercover sting operations

A TV crew and police log into chat rooms as underaged children and solicite men to have sex at the child's house.

Upon arriving the man is confronted with a TV newperson, has a seat, during the course of a discussion denies all wrong doing only to be comfronted with the ugly truth. The predator flees into the waiting arms of law enforcement. Soooooo yesterday.......

:censored Chris Hansen :censored Dateline NBC :censored

Oh and hot street walkers, lammo....
 
Not really a cliche, but I hate it when people only shoot someone once or twice. Just empty the whole damn clip into them already, and stand there and relish in it.
 
When someone falls from a building they always land on a car. If the car is empty they land square on the roof blasting all of the windows out and if someone is in the car they land on the hood.
 
I hate whenever there is a scene where there is a tense situation with someone holding a gun threatening to kill someone/s has to chamber a round to show they are serious.

Hell if the clown doesn't have a round in the chamber just go up and kick them in the groin and take the gun and beat them about the head and shoulders with it.
 
When there is a kid in the movie that so desperately wants to be part of the action, and the main hero tells him/her to stay put, and NOT fight, because they "need them safe". Kid sneaks into the action anyway, makes a huge mistake, or gets hurt, and the hero has to go in and save him/her.
 
Women cops in high heels and low cut blouses.

How most people come into a dark house and sense something is wrong and never turn on the lights. They go all through the house in the dark.

Or people just being scared for no reason (except that it's a horror movie) so they wander around slowly.
 
all time worst for me is when a character goes to investigate when they hear odd/creepy sounds!...like who does that!?!..run the other way, *******!..like u know they'll die!....I hate!:banghead
 
More of a TV sitcom/commercial cliche, but how about the "stupid dad" character? Why can't the mom be the stupid one?
