I'll start off:

Nerdy unpopular, yet smart girl with hair in a bun with glasses. Must not forget glasses and pulled back hair. Must be shy. Has feelings for a cute popular jock who likes her back(because he gets to know her when they are paired up for some class project or something) but *GASP* has an equally popular, blonde, cheerleader girlfriend. Said girlfriend is NEVER nice, but is in fact always a bitch with a crew(whom she acts bitchy to, yet they never leave her side) and is even MORE bitchy to poor nerd girl! Humiliates her in many occasions which leaves a crowd of laughing teens and jock looking sad and helpless at her. Cue violin music.

Prom comes. or some other High School event. Whatever. Said nerdy girl, by the means of a good friend etc snags a SEXY/Beautiful outfit, takes off glasses, lets down her bun (with slow motion hair flipping movement, mind you) and suddenly becomes the most BEAUTIFUL THING EVRRRR!

Walks into prom and people wonder who she is, even making way to spread out from her path simultaneously. Catches hot jock's eye who leaves his girlfriends side to make his way to her. Girlriend shoots daggers with her eyes. There must be a scene where someone says girls name with surprise Example:"OMG, Kyara is that YOU??"


To sum it up, Jock/nerdy girl get together(but not before jock does something that makes nerdy girl mad(like being seen with the ex who set it up and made it look like something it wasn't) and not before ex girlfriend and crew seek revenge, only to leave ex publically humiliated by jock boyfriend, which often lowers her status and makes her friends leave her side) Happy ending with ex nerd girl/jock ensues. AWWN...
******
So what others have YOU seen?

lol. I usually sum that up by saying "fixer-upper movies."

Hmm, what's another one..... Oh! I know. Black/White Cop Duo movies. LOL, those are the best.

[song_of_serenity]

I couldn't help it!

1. After having doing the nasty in movies, SOMEHOW, the woman ALWAYS manages to lie in bed, looking all fresh and primp the next day, bed sheets strategically placed on her nether regions...because we all know it happens like that in real life.

2Person A: There is something you must KNOW!
Person B: *cuts off person A* Let me say this first! *proceeds to say something disheartening that totally conflicts what person A was going to tell them* Now...what was it you had to say to me again?
Person A: Oh...nevermind.

3. Main character has a black/asian/other minority "best friend"

4. If a woman runs from the room vomiting, you KNOW she has to be pregnant.

lol! Token!

Hmm. Another..... Ooh. When people die. They always say something awesome or deep first.

[IrishGirl566]

My favorites are always the Grinch stories...ya know, the ones where the bad guy always gets a heart and good prevails. Yay!

*snort* Exactly.

In horror movies, where you KNOW there is something lurking about, a character will have the living daylights scared out of them (cue loud orchestra crash) by something that turns out to be a harmless cat or something running out of the shadows. Then they let their guard down and suddenly, the real monster comes. Then they die.

Speaking of cat, if you throw something off camera? I guarantee you'll hear that bloody "Mrowwwrr!" cat screeching sound effect.

I'm watching movies now just to find cliches for this topic, lol. Here's another one: When people have nightmares, they shoot up at the end of it and sit straight up real quick.

[7Corners]

The same stupid mother-daughter plots...i.e. The Ring Two, Dark Water, Flight Plan...etc...

[CH€RN@]

or when there is a single dad, and he's getting married to some bitch, and the kid(s) try to get rid of her, and makes him fall in love with this other great woman.

or when a lost daughter/son turns up, and the mom/dad are trying to bound with the kid, in the beginning it's a struggle, and in the end it's all fine and great and happy

[pedritti]

for me the biggest cliche of all is a happy ending....

[minara]

for me the biggest cliche of all is a happy ending....

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

LOL have ya seen Requiem for a Dream...ain't no happy ending there =)

[7Corners]

for me the biggest cliche of all is a happy ending....

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Have you seen SE7EN? Or Saw?

[minara]

Have you seen SE7EN?  Or Saw?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Oh yeah, def. no happy ending in Seven. That movie's fucked...but awesome =)

[Lyz9]

Scary movies: person is running from monster, "loses" monster, looks this way, that way, camera zooms in, person turns slowly around to look behind and monster is there doing his scary thing.
Also, people who are running in scary movies inevitably stumble and fall, then can't manage to get back up, so they sort of slide backwards across the ground on their asses (looking terrified, of course) as the bad guy advances. I never understood why the hell they couldn't just get up and keep running.

Romantic movies (or any movie involving a morning after): The couples NEVER HAVE GROSS MORNING BREATH! It drives me nuts. I mean, when you wake up in the morning, your breath isn't minty fresh enough that you're going to breathe freely all over your bed partner and not have any effect. Seriously.

[CH€RN@]

in action movies where there is a lot of shooting: bad guys shoot and shoot and shoot and always seem to miss although they are considered deadly assassins. then the good guy shoots and WHAM bad guys are dead, even though sometimes the good guy has never touched a gun before.

[pedritti]

all the movies you guys said are in my list of favourite movies

(seven,requiem for a dream,saw)

[Karim]

OH, just remembered a great one. Whenever somebody has a gun, they have to cock it either when they first get it or when they say something cool. And the round in the chamber never comes out, lol.

[EchoesImmortal]

The token minorities being killed first. It's so cliche it gets made fun of.

[IceBlueButterfly]

I'd like to see a guy twist his ankle running from the bad guy/monster/whatever and then of course just lie there, for awhile, going uhhh uhh in a whiny voice- and of course never fight back just kinda squeal.. How come people just stand there and scream anyway, I love The Ring but please if that chick came at me I would have at least gotten off a few punches before she twisted my face up.. "Oh look she's got evil dead girl hair clenched in her fist, even for a dead chick that must'a hurt!"

[silverskye]

Scary movies are just like one big giant cliche to me.
