REALLY long, 6 pages, but hilarous. Most are true too. :P

wowz... i thought you meant if you printed that page up its 6 pages long, but its 6 internet pages :o

All teenage boys have some kind of "do not enter or else" sticker or sign on their bedroom door.


mine says made you look. good enough

Something very very bad always happens when someone says "How bad can it be?" or "Can things get any worse?"


tell me about it :roll:

The man, when breaking up with a woman, will always try to tell her that it’s not her, it’s him. However, the woman has already seen every single movie like this one and will be aware of this cliché, so she replies with something like “don’t give me that”.


i dunno...

While crossing wobbly old rope bridges, the hero will always state “don’t look down.” Then the female will say, “too late,” prompting the wooden board she next steps on to break and she falls through, and is left dangling high above a river that’s always full of hungry, man-eating crocodiles


true, but its not always crocodiles...

Any teen comedy usually ends with a prom no matter the time of year.


i guess so

If the hero is running, the henchmen's' machine-guns will always give off sparks behind the heroes feet and never actually hit him


true :P

Heroes/villains, especially when wearing bulky, heavy, long black trench coats, can jump easily from rooftop to rooftop, always able to clear alleys ten to fifteen feet wide.


agagag the matrix

If a parent goes to their child's bedroom and they are already in bed asleep, the parent will approach the bed and say something kind to the sleeping child before brushing their hair into place and kissing them on the forehead.


dunno

and i dont feel like reading the rest. maybe later :P

I actually sat down and read all or pretty much most of these one day a long time ago. (Or at least a similiar page.) Most of them are pretty true, and that's what gets me thinking... How can I make a movie that is completely against all movie stereotypes? *has a crazy plan*

All nuns seem to travel in pairs.


I don't know why, but I found that one very funny. :P

While reading these, I was thinking it would actually be fun to make a comedy movie with as many clichés as possible. :P

These are halarious! So many of them a true, also. :lol:

sort of like that Family Guy where they go fishing.
"all we caught was an tire, a boot, a tin can, and this book of cliches"
