Hollywood Cliches

Post by OC »

Hey guys, I stole this from SAU, anyways, enjoy 8)

Here's a list of things that only seem to happen in movies. Feel free to add your own.
Inspired by some dj's I was listening to on the radio awhile ago.

1. If you're a main character, there's always a free parking spot available directly outside or opposite the building you're visiting.

2. When paying for a taxi, don't look at your wallet when you take out a note. Just grab one at random and it will always be the exact fare.

3. the 'L' shape blanket: All beds have special L-shaped sheets that reach to armpit level on a woman but only up to the waist of the man lying beside her.

4. If you spontaneously decide to start dancing in the street, everyone around you will know all the steps & join in!

5. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red digital displays so you know exactly when they are going to explode.
More often than not they cannot be defused until the counter reaches '1'

6. Cars will explode instantly when struck by a single bullet.

7. The ventilation system of any building will always have man-sized vents and easily accessible from inside a holding cell.

8. If staying in a haunted house, women should investigate any strange noises wearing their most revealing underwear.

9. All teen house parties have at least one of every stereotypical subculture present (even people who aren't liked and would never get invited to parties).

10. Most musical instruments can be played without actually moving your fingers, also all singers have perfect voices just as if they were recorded in a studio!

11. During all police investigations it will be necessary to visit a strip club at least once.

12. Anybody can land a jumbo jet as long as there is someone in the control tower to talk you down.

13. Plain or even ugly girls can become hot simply by removing their glasses and rearranging their hair.

14. Stallone's Law:One man shooting at 20 men with a pistol has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at once with sub-machine guns.

15. A single match is usually sufficient to light up a room the size of a football stadium.

16. Anyone in a battle who shows a picture of their wife/girlfriend beforehand is usually the first to be killed.

17. If you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts, your opponents will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around you in a threatening manner until you have defeated their comrade.

18. Cars never need fuel (unless they're involved in a pursuit).

19. The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window of any building in Paris or France even.

20. When in another country, let's say Germany, it's not necessary to speak German, simply speak english with a stereotypical accent. Incidentally, the native people will all prefer to speak to each other in english aswell.

You've seen the film!!


Also why is it that blokes with a small amount of training can jump out of a second storey window, land without doing any damage and run off?

no matter how much they were punched, kicked in the face or cut and burnt in a explosion, the main character always ends up looking hot again by the next scene
