#Cliches #Movies #LoveatFirstSight - Zábava
Which movie cliché do you hate the most!?
Missing shots maybe? Seriously those Stormtroopers could only use a nerf gun to hit properly.
The blind side movie was at least based on a true story , where a white family really did open up their home to a young black man and help him turn his life around . Just saying
The chosen one trope
The Blind Side is a bad example because that's actually based off a true story. You're reducing that to a "cliche" such a shame.
Hurting female to get to hero or trashy Storm Troopers
The Bad guy always has the perfect opportunity to kill the protagonist, but talks too much.....
“When you have to shoot, shoot. Don’t talk.”
@@xavierbrown3305 When you are bathing but an evil idiot rather talk to you than shoot you immediately.
syndrome: you sly dog, you got me monologing
It could be useful for the movie plot if the bad guy explains a little but usually bad guys spend like five minutes explaining everything.
Villain: "Before I kill you I'm gonna let you know that your girlfriend is gonna explode with the bomb I placed in dock 35, in your friend Johnny's yacht...(blah, blah, blah)...and while the police checks the explosion I'll be loading the drug cargo at dock 25 under their noses...(blah, blah, blah)... nothing could stop me now".
Hero: "Wrong I used your five minute speech to cut off the ropes bounding my hands".
I mean like what a heck?
Ed Harris in A History Of Violence.
Another cliche I hate: running through the airport in romcoms to win over the love interest at the last second.
Yeah that was a big one in the 90’s and early 2000’s.
I had forgotten about that one. Shoot that was the entire Friends finale concept.
Running anywhere. Like a ballpark. Looking at you, Anger Management and Fever Pitch. (Still fun movies though.)
Especially after 9/11, this cliche is even more ridiculous and unthinkable.
Love Actually!
Common sense in horror movies...
“I hear a noise outside, I’ll go alone to check it out”
"someone's in the house should I grab the-
Gun
Phone
Knife
Doberman
Wood ruler- this one!!!!!!
Screaming while running away or even hiding so you an make it easy for the bad guy to chase and find you.
"...I'll be right back."
Lmao 😂
Don't forget: "Let's split up!"
Honorable mention: protagonist goes to a bar and leaves without finishing their drink
Yes! Shits expensive! Same for food, who the hell cooks a 2 course meal every day for BREAKFAST?!
Throwing money on the table when they leave, then just walking out. Did they do the bill in their head? Calling someone on a landline and getting no answer, so you just let the phone drop, off the hook, as you run off to find them. Walking into a house and not closing the door behind you. Soooo many of these unnatural behaviors.
😭😭😭😭😭
Well it happened in Breaking Bad season five where Walt at the bar drinking his whiskey waiting for the police to take him but when he sees Elliot and Gretchen on Charlie Rose and his ego happened then left without finishing his drink but leave a dollar tip.
I think the Big Lebowski is the only one to point that out - 'I'm staying here... I'm finishing my coffee'
One of my "favorite" cliches is when a character awakens from a nightmare by springing from the pillow, instead of still laying down.
@Catharsis nightmareception
Yeah. When I wake up from a nightmare my eyes just pop open and I scan the room before immediately falling back asleep.
@@icantthinkofaname5512 Yes, we've all had nightmares before, but in the movies, actors are like so shocked that they just had one and wake up terrified. I'm glad to wake up from one and find that it's not real. No, I thank the Lord that I DID feed the puppy every day for the last year instead of completely forgetting about her. Wow, I'm sooooo happy my wife's parents ARE NOT going to stay with us from Thanksgiving through New Years. I'm actually relieved that my buddy DIDN'T decapitate himself on his dirt bike.
...I do this irl
How about when they are bolting up and screaming?
Two that you missed: Cars always blowing up on contact with something, and being able to get anywhere in a building through the air vent
I’m gonna say this once...
Every Villain has a weakness, and that is called “Overconfidence.”
So true
plot armor FIFY
#1: “You sly dog, you got me monologuing”
yes
It’s so satisfying when villains acknowledge or even break this trope like Ultron in Avengers: Age of Ultron,
Ultron: “I’m glad you asked because I really wanted to take this time to explain my evil plan…” then immediately attacks
@@MrMnM-ed5ht Ozymandias in "Watchmen"
THE most annoying movie cliche to me, is when a protagonist is about to go on a deadly mission, and a side character begs and grovels to go along to help out. This is usually a minor character that has been a comic relief, or maybe even a relative (daughter, son, etc.) that is totally inexperienced in fighting. The protagonist will firmly tell that person no, that they will be better served to stay behind and help the others. The side character then pouts but agrees. As the protagonist then goes on the mission and gets close to the objective, BAM, the side character appears (the side character either surprises the protagonist after sneaking away, or the side character is caught by the bad guys creating even more problems for the protagonist). So utterly predictable.
The springing up from the back seat makes me hate it even more.
The worst its *the love story* where nobody asked for
Watching some horror film ,you want gore and terror you get a couple surviving just cause love
Action film ,you want guns and cool fights well ,you get kisses and almost broke up scenes
Not all comedies have to be about love triangles
Crime film , you want a smart investigation or heist , well crime cant get between the couples romance .
Etc , etc biggest cliche , dont know how to complete a script ? add a good looking couple . And if even then you dont fill the time gap add some random sex scenes or them staring into each other
Comedy cliche-everything funny until near the end it gets sad or serious
Going into a bar and ordering a generic drink. "I'll have a beer" Bartender never asks what kind. "Gimme a whiskey".
And also forced love stories.(See Aquaman) Amber Heard and Jason Mamoa characters came off as more siblings/cousin than lovers.
I hate that kisses and sex scenes. Even the movie was super good , but on the end they have to ruin it with kiss or sex scene when the movie is on its top.
You can have a million storm troopers all aiming on one target and they still won’t hit a damn thing
Maybe they shouldn't have ended Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid when they did. Perhaps they escaped?
I love this cliche.
They would but the person has plot amour.
welcome to the bullet hell
Well, in the first movie the stormtroopers weren't trying to hit their targets, Leia directly says the escape was too easy and the empire let them to escape to track them to the rebel base.
The Watchmen did number one right. They had the villain explaining and he then tells them it happened 30 minutes ago.
I dropped my jaw at the scene.
@@mateuszmarciniak2828 Well, it's Alan Moore. He has a rep for writing against type in his stories. 😉
Sounds like a CalebCity video.
@@greatwavefan397 thank you? I’m sorry. I don’t know what that is.
An honorable mention: the sassy black and/or gay friend
Since this cliche happens more in romantic comedies I couldn't recommend it higher.
Plot twist: It's not the character's personality quirk, they only do the stereotype because they find it hilarious.
Patton Oswalt talks about being offered the role of the sassy "gay best friend" in a rom-com and said he would only do it if he could play the character as a complete moron instead of an unrealistic "quip machine." The studio declined his offer.
I hate it when a villain explains their plan, it’s so dumb😂 so glad it’s 1st
That only works in Bond movies lol.
James Oakley and infinity war
And by over explaining everything the bad guy gives the hero time to brake free from the ropes binding his hands. Hahahaha
James Oakley Se7en.
@@jacobangeles5539 yup, se7en was perfect, allowing to show the last deadly sin, wrath
- The cell phones never work in horror movies.
- Cars don't run when the character chased by the killer.
- Instead of shooting a bullet to the head and get over with it the villain puts the protagonist into a survivable situation.
- Also in today's PC Hollywood, villain is always the white guy.
Or middle eastern. I guess Russian would fall under white though
In horror movies-people tripping while running
-never ending night
-cops never help
-solutions never work or theres a catch
you had it till you made it about race 🙄
@@sybill123ful But it’s true because God forbid if the villain is black the movie and/or the director is racist for making the villain black. Blame the stupid PC crowd and many black people who ONLY see race instead of the story or reality. It’s ok for the villain to be black. Doesn’t make the people who thought of that racists. The same goes for the White Savior trope. It was annoying mentioning that trope because hello, some of those movies were based on true stories i.e. The Blind Side. WatchMojo didn’t consider the time period or if it’s based on a true story. There is NOTHING WRONG with the white savior if it actually makes sense. The same goes for the black savior as well. It’s all in the context.
Same thing with The Help which bothered me having it included
"the forced romance". mostly in action movies, the hero, usually a man, gets the help of a female associate. by the end of the movie they are deeply in love. it is sort of like love at "first sight" and "the female pawn".
Can you really point to Romeo and Juliet as including a trope? Shakespeare is kinda the father of many tropes, but they were fairly original at the time.
Exactly some of these are just invalid opinions. Shakespeare is about as original as u can really get.
I'd give Return of the Jedi a pass because the Emperor wanted to corrupt Luke, not kill him.
My thoughts exactly, why were they even showing those clips?? Doesn't make sense
Yeah but it’s not MARVEL! So it sucks by default!
@Joel Brown At first, I too thought it was a dumb clip to show, because it's not really showing the Stormtroopers shooting at other characters. But then I reconsidered. It is kind of pathetic that the three Scouts couldn't take down a Ewok flailing about on top of a speeder.
But I was confused why both of you would give *Return of the Jedi* _a pass_ because the *Emperor* wasn't trying to kill *Luke.* There wasn't even a situation where Stormtroopers were shooting at him, let alone shooting and missing. But there were plenty shooting at the _other_ characters in that film. And when the Stormtroopers _were_ shooting at *Luke* in the other films, they were _definitely_ trying to kill him. Just like virtually every other time they're shooting at the protagonists in the many *Star Wars* films out there.
IMO, the only time the Stormtroopers ever really show even a modicum of skill on camera, was in the opening of *Star Wars.* . . .Oh, I'm sorry, _"A New Hope."_ 🙄
As an aside, I never understood why they never showed stormtrooper armor at least being _somewhat_ effective. Show them being hit with glancing blows, which knock down a trooper, but clearly doesn't kill him. Show that there's a point, *an actual reason,* in wearing that armor. But I guess that boat sailed a long time ago. It sailed away when they were being taken down by Ewoks.
One of the most egregious examples IMO was *Chirrut Îmwe* taking them down with a stick. Anyone who's worn football, hockey, Motocross, or any kind of cheap plastic protector (which should be infinitely inferior to stormtrooper armor) should know that it shouldn't have done diddly-squat. It _certainly shouldn't have knocked them into unconsciousness!_ 😳😵🤦🏼♂️
And to answer a question I'm likely to get, given the length of my reply ─ _No, I don't have anything better to do right now. it's 2 in the morning and I'm going to go floss now. I've got popcorn between my teeth._
“Can I get you a drink?”
“Sure”
*leaves before drink arrives*
policemen at breakfast.
"we have the number of villain´s car"
in two seconds everybody leaving without finishing the breakfast.
ugly job.
T E N E T
My grandparents fell in love at first sight. They married at 14. They died a week apart at 94.
My grandparents not.
Now we have a problem.
I held a door open for a girl one time
She said thank you
THATS love at first sight
Your grandparents were HAL and SIRI, Holly.
I fell in love with my wife at first site too
Oh, then it is not a cliché anymore.
Characters in horror movies tripping over absolutely nothing. NOTHING.
Like cliffhangers leading into unoriginal and monotone sequels? 🥱
I can assure you that my books are anything but monotone XP
Or forced sequels.(See: Underworld) the sequels to this movie are so forced and patched together that it fucked's up the plot of the initial movies story, timeline and continuity. There's a lot of time you will say What fuck? That doesn't match up to what happened in the previous movie.There's also a lot of unanswered questions.(A lot of Why did this happened? Why did that happened?) And a whole lot of Make that make sense moments.
Modern Trope: There must always be a LGBT person in the movie who states whatever they are, despite no one asking and it having no plot relevance.
Grimrapings you are so correct
Hahahaa correct!!!
bashing whites, even when they trying to be good and help the community. and boohoo, women in films are beautiful
Literally
So true. Literally every Netflix movie has at least one gay character.
The scary scene that just ends up being a nightmare.
The person waking up from a coma and the world has completely changed.
The well groomed, well dressed and soft spoken bad guy with impeccable charm.
The line “I didn’t sign up for this”
Yup, or greeting their friends with "You're LATE"
And don't forget the villain killing a bunch of his minions just cause their evil.
Like there a sale on henchmen? 😆
Bond villains are great at amassing those armies and they all look like models. The could easily get good paying jobs or be in medical school, but no they have to help Mr Goldfinger irradiate a bunch of gold bars while the US Army is probably going to missile your young healthy ass out of existence while you're wearing some dumb "uniform" the bad guy came up with so you'll be a dead give away to the government troops.
The recent new cliche is "The bad guy has to tear down the world to build a new perfect one".....
Every Pokémon villain ever!
Thanos
Another huge cliche: when the bad guy runs out of bullets.
Instead of using submachineguns to fill the air with a big, unavoidable volley of lethal flying lead, the villains track a glaringly obvious path of bullet impacts along the ground toward the hero, who can easily see the impacts coming and easily dodge them as they approach.
One more trope: keeping the door or window open behind you when fleeing from the villain/ ghost/ predators!!! When you know you're are being followed, close the door behind you!!
Someone finally understand me, i fully hate it
Basically just leaving the front door open in general and assuming nothing will get in or out annoys both me and my sister.
Don Corneo: "As everyone knows, villains only divulge their plans in a certain situation. But what is that situation?"
Cloud: "When they think they've already won, right?"
You should’ve add in other cliches such as the liar reveal, the misunderstanding, and main protagonist being bully from being different. Those are the cliches that people can’t stand in movies.
Misunderstandings are the worst
Okay, now do the "Top 10 Movie Clichés everybody loves"
10. McGuffins
9. Witty one-liners
8. Cookie-cutter plots
7. Humor taking precedence
6. Sarcastic heroes
5. “Evil version” villains
4. Two-and-a-half hour long trailers for upcoming movies
3. Glaring plot holes being filled by fan theories (this ones looking at you “Peter Parker in Iron Man 2”!)
2. Movies that are essentially overly-expensive TV shows
You HAVE the option to be notified...
1. Anything Robert Downey Jr.
Hey, I mean if you’re gonna shill, I say just go all out!
@@robertjones1440 love this list
How could they forget "It was all a dream?"
Because now they're in the limelight 'cause they rhyme tight...
Cliche: exists
People: *Why, the plot said so*
makes sense. I'll just get WAAAAAAAY off your back about it.
Anytime you have a character say "As you know" you know the movie is going to suck.
#7. I actually like this cliche because man or woman the death of any loved one can spur anyone on.
5# I'm sick of people complaining about this cliche. This cliche is more prevalent in real life than you think. And this goes back to the civil rights movement and the era of slavery. And it humanizes the savior and they in turn become better for it.
Yeah. I really don’t get the hate for the White Savior trope. Perhaps a work around could be the White Person is the supporting character while the main character is the oppressed race. They learn about one another and they acknowledge their flaws and learn how best to go about dealing with the issue.
Great example: Django Unchained
Rainbowhawk1993 don’t use Django for the example because doctor was not a supporting character he was just as important as the main character in every way
I'm starting to think Watchmojo gets offended by anything white-related
@@Rainbowhawk1993 Big Trouble in Little China ia another good one. Kurt Russell's character only seems like the main character, but he's really the bumbling supporting character to Wang Chi
"The white savior" more like the american savior
Hated movie cliche:
*A sequel bait*
And said sequel usually never comes to fruition (or just takes forever).
Another hated movie cliche:
Power of friendship defeats villian that trained for 25 years and has an entire army that could easily split the earth in half.
"You have mobile phone reception everywhere except when you're in danger"
You forgot one thing.
Minutes long of Studio logos
Not really a cliche related to the plot of a movie, but yeah, those are annoying.
Villain wants to be killed so the hero becomes the villain-Joker...Palps...actually cant think about anyone else
No no Palps wanted to actually go into the heroes body to live again. Lol
It's likely the villain just has nothing to live for and just wants to die already so he/she is actually translating to put them out of their misery when they beg the hero to kill them.
I was waiting for the following. Lol
1.the perfect prince charming for an ordinary girl.
2. A douche school jock and a hot cheerleader gf with a nerd stalker
3. Insane driving skills for leads
4. Late arrival of police after the shootouts
Hardly any of our HS cheerleaders dated the jocks
Ok I love this list and I know it’s only an dishonorable mention but hanging up without saying goodbye is probably the dumbest thing to put on any list.
Ok so I agree with the whole "white hero" thing but in Avatar the "white people" (who happened to be humans in general) were the villains of the movie
How about my all time favorite: the classic slow motion "nooooooo!!!!" whenever something terrible happens to a protagonist's friend or loved one.
There's the one cliche, where someone sleeps through various loud noises when someone tries to sneak through, sneak out or sneak in but wakes up to a simple noise
A recent cliché that is incredibly annoying is the "we need diversity".
Yes! I agree with this ,because as a black person I just hate to see someone of''ethnicity''just dropped into a movie were it doesn't make sense(See:Mike Epps in Resident Evil: Apocalypse and Resident Evil: Extinction)it's like look I'm here to fill the minority/diversity quota.He was so out of place in those movies and there's plenty of other movies were the minority character was out of place and seem to be put there to fill a quota. There's also the other problem for example when a black person is cast in a all white movie it seems like they are not a fully developed person.Where are their family and don't they have any hope/goals for their future and lives of their own.
This does not make sense
splitting up in horror movies
In the "Love at First Sight" scene, that GOD AWFUL modern Romeo and Juliet movie was shown. I remember seeing that trash in my senior year of high school for whatever reason. My teacher had us watch it instead of take a test because we were all set to pass with high grades, but I just sat there thinking "I'd rather be taking a test than watching this" the whole time. It was so awful.
Here are cliches I hate:
1. Fakeout deaths
2. 3rd act breakups
3. The female character becoming a damsel in distress
4. Kids having adult voices
5. Bad guys always suck at shooting
6. Pointless love interests
7. Characters always being late in the beginning of the movie
8. The villains are always businessmen
9. Main characters watching people die until they start doing anything the last minute
10. Couples or characters that aren't friends or a couple in a sequel.
11. When the main character is forced to stay at home with someone that is constantly mean towards them.
12. That moment when the main character looks at a woman and it's played in slow mo and music starts playing.
13. Kids movies having rated R movie references and dated humor.
Exposition is sometimes a necessary evil, conveying information (heavily depending on the information) through showing instead of spelling it is easier said than done and it could very well lead to incorrect interpretations. And the villain explaining their plan, to me it always felt more like.... Boasting, telling others how smart and powerful they are
People(especially women) waking up looking beautiful as if they had a makeup team working on them in the middle of the night.
And some of them just out of trauma surgery
Another big cliche that could have been an honorable mention is: The villan is always British. Lol.
That proves that American audiences accept anyone with a British accent as highly intelligent, so we've got a real dangerous villain here.
@@billolsen4360 You're correct. That's how American movies are always made. Stereotypes and all. 🤪 American audiences are easily swayed though. Lol.
"When you fall from a skyscraper, you'll always land on a car"
Why are you showing clips from good movies? Good movies make these cliches work.
It was like watchmojo really need to feel cool about something stuck up dork style.
Agreed!!
"At last! We can escape! But let me go back for one more thing. Don't worry! I'll catch up with you." Famous last words
I'm tired of the cliche of people complaining about cliche's
It's funny because WatchMojo's anime list are a walking cliche
If watchmojo made a “why cliche’s are good” list, then you would be saying the exact opposite
Villains explaining their plan, giving the hero time:
Examples shown:
Not the villain. The hero telling the villain he will kill him and why
The villain trying to get the hero on his side, not having the intention of killing him
The villain not able to hasten the hero's demise, basking in the glory of the expected moment
A comedy specifically making fun of this trope
Yes, it's a stupid cliche, but non of those clips show it ...
Hope everyone who sees this has a wonderful week ahead ❤️‼️
My pet fish died
We need a top 20 version of this list!
*imagine a movie without 1 cliché. i’m still waiting on it*
eraserhead?
Clockwork Orange
Three Billboards
If I make a movie it won’t have any cliches
Cinderella beauty and beast it
Someone visiting back home and coming across either an old friend or hot person then falling in love only to have to leave then making the decision on love that was only a week old and giving up your success. Aka all hallmark movies
5:10 Blindside was based on a true story. And yes, maybe the white woman wasn't the only one who could help him but she was the only one who *did* help him. I'm so wary of the focus on race in movies.
And "The Help" was based on a book.
If your wary of what they're saying you don't get it
@@westzed23 almost all movies are based on books.
The dark knight is on literally every watch mojo list
3:25 - 4:30 It doesn't matter who the villain kills related to the hero they will go after them regardless. Which is pretty reasonable from a heroes perspective.
Yes but after the green lantern comics it became more frequent to use the significant other, and since it's a pretty well male dominant role, typically it's a woman.
What about when the 2 main characters have an arguement and separate until the end of the movie where they reconcile
Here are a few more overused movie cliches: The hero knocks out henchmen with one punch, the hero easily fights a group of henchmen, and a character knocks out someone by hitting them over the head or behind the head.
Cimema Sins is gonna love this
"The guy who tells you what is going to do after completing the mission will die before the mission is complete"
"I'm going to take my wife on a 2 week vacation to a tropical paradise because we never had a honeymoon and since I'm a cop she's had to raise our 13 children nearly alone."
heroes get shot but they wore a security vest. to show us they did, they rip open their shirt and throw the vest away ... which makes them vulnerable from this moment on.
Most villains need a good monologue in their story, but it's too bad they have to be so long
I hope you're looking squarely at the Nazi guy from Hellsing Ultimate as you say it's too long lol. Pretty sure that was a 5 minute monologue
To be fair, there are films out there that actually COULD have benefited from 'exposition dump,' showing, not telling, but what they actually show makes the viewer go "Huh?"
The woman who's heroic through the whole movie but suddenly ends up face to face with the bad guy and can't fight worth a crap. The bad guy grabs her and she screams the most utterly irritating line in any movie, "You're hurting me!!!" Then she's saved at the last minute by a man.
Here's more original twists on the cliches:
10. Love at first sight => young love that needs to mature
9. Exposition overload => Something interesting/relevant shown at the same time as the exposition
8. Bad guys with terrible aim => Purposefully bad aim for some unknown reason
7. Hurting women to hurt heroes => women purposefully drawing bad guys attention to save hero
6. Well groomed in crisis => crisis isn't as great as thought
5. White savior => red herring
4. Villain wants to be caught => No greater scheme than wanting someone to play with
3. Superhuman hero => relevant plot-point
2. The 'ugly' woman => only in their character
1. Villain explaining plan => obscuring REAL plan
The white hero” shows the blind side which is a true story what u mean 😂
Finally someone that understands that movies are quickly falling apart. All we see now are remakes remixes and sequels with the occasional overly cliched movie
The creative aspect of filmmaking sure, definitely not the industry of filmmaking. As viewers, we crave creativity and freshness. The industry is a business. Sequels and remakes are the name of the game.
Alex m wdym by agenda pushing movies? (I’m not attacking I just want to know what you mean by that)
auhsoj Anything that’s not the ‘status quo’ created by the golden age of Hollywood is considered agenda pushing these days. 9/10 the films people considering politically correct is just the intention of the plot and the devices utilized to create a narrative, but audience members misconstrue the intention.
There’s a really important saying people forget: No one else is responsible for one’s assumptions. Take Charlie’s Angel’s (2019). Failed to attract an audience of people over 35 and younger women while also having less sexualization of the 3 new leads than the previous two films. It’s considered an example of a film ruined by agenda pushing and PC culture. Despite this, the film kept the theme that made the franchise famous: a combination of comedy and action with a great cast.
Just like with Captain Marvel, the film suffered mostly due to the perception of the most important factor in the film: Elizabeth Banks. Elizabeth identifies personally as a feminist, which has negative connotations to a certain group of people. Since the film’s release, Banks has been accused of using the film as a feminist platform and ruining the franchise. This is funny since SONY literally eyed and marketed to the FEMALE age base of 13-39. To others, the removal of the “male gaze” and sexualization was immediately a result of PC culture instead of rational intent by a studio. Here’s a fact people should realize: Not every movie is intended for everyone, 😂. And that’s alright.
In Captain Marvel, BEFORE the film even came out people wrote negative reviews to bomb it based on Brie Larson’s personal views when she made a comment about needing more inclusivity and diversity in Hollywood.
People need to understand that filmmakers have creative control over their product (with studio oversight), and if something is not intended for you, you’re anger or dislike is unnecessary. The other two Charlie’s Angels films with eyed and marketed to men, and that’s fine too. Politics and society has always bled into influencing filmmaking. It didn’t just erupt during the 21st century.
Sorry for the long diatribe, I teach film analysis sometimes and get carried away. Ignore me!
@@steamboatwill3.367 What? I literally said the whole “agenda” thing is BS. What are you referring to specifically? Specificity is important if you’re going to make a response, no?
@@lotusinn3 ) sorry, I completley missread your comment.
Movie rule: it's easier for one man to kill ten men than ten men to kill one man.
Stormtroopers actually were extremely proficient in combat with anyone lacking plot armor... look at the poor crew of Tantive IV.
And they were kicking Ewok ass until one of their AT-STs was commandeered by Chewbacca.
How come the good guys never have any storm troopers?
Also having an older and wiser character advicing/mentoring the newbie hero.
That drove me nuts watching The Untouchables. Sean telling experienced Chicago street cops that it's not necessary to check your weapons twice, blah blah blah.
“A storm is coming” the biggest foreshadowing cliche.
That's a phrase that's older then movies. Not a cliche.
I’m late but let’s not forget the trope of a character’s mum or dad waking up early in order to make the perfect big breakfast for their kid, only for their kid to eat one piece of one the foods and then leave the house?
Like what!? Your mother/father probably woke up at like 5:00 or 6:00 am just to make such a amazing breakfast and you leave it there and waste it?
Most villain explain their evil plan because, no 1: to demotivated the hero
no 2: to turn hero into their thinking
no 3: probably to justify the reason to be bad
Last but not least. Their know the gonna die, so tell cersei, im the one who did it
Cristopher Nolan in particular overuses exposition. Everything in his movies has to be explained, three times. It only slows the movie down. Show us, don't tell us!
The cliche I hate the most is the fake death. It ruins so much things because when they die for real at some point I always expect the character to come back so at the time I don't take the death seriously. And when I take it seriously, and they come back, it ruins the emotions of the death.
I'm honestly the most mixed about the whole cliché where the main character(s) is like "Oh this guy can do it" and then immediately in the next scene the guy is like "I can't do it".
It's mad predictable
Another that is very annoying: if you take off your clothes, you're going to die. This is common in most horror films
We need a Movie , who flipps every single one of this points ...
Cause - com on - " The Guy gets the Girl ?! ... " Can there just be a normal friendship between Men and Woman 😂❤️???
A cliche i hate is where a protagonist falls in love with someone but then later tells them that they are being chased or senthing
Another cliche is starting the movie with the protagonist running late to something. They are either 5 minutes late or make to class in the last second.
Here are two I thought would have been an honorable mention at least....
- a dream sequence, or a scene that you think is actually happening is only a dream
- main character or characters in general having anemia
What do yo mean about the anemia part?
@@auhsoj5758 He means amnesia.
Missed a really one important and annoying cliche.
The Black guy usually or always dies first in horror or any kind of movies.
But that cliche is great
lur ezpe why?
You forgot “Characters coming back to life.”
One cliché I saw many times about TV heroes in the eighties: They were all Vietnam Vets.
DONT YOU DARE CRITIZISING THE DARK KNIGHT!!!!!
Also in StarWars Palpatine had to explain his plan in order to turn Luke to the dark side
Dark Knight socks.
Opinions are opinions fanboy. Try not to hit so hard on TDK.
There is criticism for every movie whether or not you agree with it.
Ok but seriously you put exposition on the list
For two things about that, number 1, what are people supposed to do, just glance at each other and be like "oh ok I got it that's how we'll stop the bad guy"
And number 2, at LEAST 80% of the movie's you watch would be super hard to follow without a little exposition
Not saying goodbye at the end of a phone call is my biggest hate.
What about the cliche where our protagonist loses the final in the tournament and realise
"It's not about winning as long as you do your best and put on a good fight"
(Rocky, Cars, Real Steel, etc.....)
"He started monologuing!"
I’m tired of you guys propping up “Show Don’t Tell.” Sometimes Tell don’t show works just fine. Just watch the chess scene in Independence Day.
i think "the white savior" trope finally jumped the shark when the main character of green book wasnt the world renowned, concert pianist, who was friends with the president, dr don shirley. no it was his uneducated driver. who had to teach him how to eat fried chicken.
You beautiful SOB!🎉🎉🎉
With how bad the bad guys miss their targets... Id hate to see their bathrooms after they take a leak.
