		<description>A commenter very early on said they hate when the heroine dumps the good guy for the hero...that&#039;s why I HATE THE WEDDING PLANNER. Other than it being a bad movie of course. But who doesn&#039;t want to be Justin Chambers!!!!</description>

		<description>sorry for the errors in my last post, I wanted to get something off my chest what is haunting me for years. Ever since I have seen this escape from LA movie, how are certain weaknesses supposed to make someone equal, better or stronger? I mean prime example Snake Plisken can just save the world (or screw the world whatever) with only one eye. How the he## is he able to throw balls into the hoops when he is not having any depth perception? Same goes for Martin Riggs, how can he fight the battle of titans with a dislocated arm and as he was nearly strangled 10 seconds before that. And he was clearly TOO OLD for this, finally yes.</description>

		<description>268 comments in 2 years, respect to that. The following points as a response to yours

1)Like a 45 year old retard with the face of a pudding can get the 20 year old supermodel, I hate it!!! I can&#039;t stand it, it is complete bull@#it.
2)When it is the classic &quot;the bad guy owns the place&quot; no one will react to it when the bad guy is giving someone a trashing or when he tries to rape someone as the barman looks in to the other direction and a band will continue playing pretending to see nothing and so on, but when someone actually dares to slap the bad guy or something like that, all the people will stop doing what they were doing and stare at the guy/gal who just slapped the bad guy. 
5)man man it gets much worse, how about -especially bad guys- who don&#039;t seem to be affected when being perforated by a spear or something bigger like a pipe, it magically gives them more strength as they just easily rip the object out and continue fighting. 
6)yeah, or the 3 word latin name for a gnat from the top off your head
8)that reminds me of something, like always they sense that they are being recorded, but still they take the risk. So why not write the message down?

I have seen many movie cliches that annoy me such as crime solving related investigation programmes. Off course anyone is in the database, whether s/he is illegal or not, and sure.. any hair that you lose, proves it that you were at that place. Every lieutenant is a young blonde woman..god.. and when someone looks up a person in the database, it shows the exact photo&#039;s as the person is right now, so with the exact hair length and hairdo, which is amazingly up to date. Furthermore, when the investigators are losing the case, the search one more time, find the overlooked missing link such as.. ooh, do you remember the suspect mentioning something about planes, so he must be at the airport right now, so they rush to the airport and catch the real perpetrator who was about to flee so they were just in time. Oh gawd I hate that so much, and almost every episode of every crime related show is like this. pretty predictable.</description>

		<description>One more thing.... someone previously mentioned the overused &quot;We&#039;ve got company&quot; line. Yes! Here&#039;s another two:

Character A confronts Character B about whatever, and Character B gets defensive and the exchange goes this way:

&quot;You mean you think __________?!?&quot; (insert accusation here)

Character A responds: &quot;I don&#039;t know WHAT to think!&quot;

&quot;I don&#039;t know what to think&quot; ranks up there with &quot;We&#039;ve got company&quot; and the Star Wars staple &quot;I&#039;ve got a baaad feeling about this&quot; (which was used at least once in every SW film, including the prequels).</description>

		<description>Oh, yeah... nowadays, in horror movies where there&#039;s a &quot;satanic&quot; theme: Pentacles... or pentagrams, if you will. The five-point star. Probably the most unfairly maligned symbol ever, save for the Tibetan sun wheel (perverted into the swastika). Doesn&#039;t anyone just use a good ol&#039; inverted crucifix anymore? ;D</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s a couple I haven&#039;t seen listed yet:

Horror movie cliche: Quite the reverse of the action movie cliche on this point, if there&#039;s a cute, sweet, lovable family dog, you can bet 9/10 times the dog&#039;s going to get it at some point.

Action movie cliche: If there is a big fish tank in a scene where the bad guys and good guys meet, you KNOW there&#039;s going to be a gunfight whereupon the tank will be shattered and out will come water, fishies and all.

Here&#039;s one that&#039;s become sort of the anti-cliche cliche the last couple of years, and really has put me off dramatic love stories. Guy and girl meet at beginning of movie, fall deeply in love, and soon after are separated by unfortunate circumstances (usually a war), and in their months or years apart encounter great hardships, all the while pining for one another, dreaming and hoping for &quot;someday&quot; ... and ... one or both die just before or just after they meet again and have the chance to live &quot;happily ever after&quot;. Movie ends. (Example: &quot;Cold Mountain&quot;, &quot;Atonement&quot;, and if you go back a ways, &quot;Doctor Zhivago&quot;) You know, I don&#039;t like a meaningless or inexplicable happy ending (&quot;Lake House&quot;), but, come on, after putting the protagonists -- and me -- through hell, you better make the ending damn well worth it. Otherwise I could have just stayed home and watched the news for 2.5 hours to be depressed!</description>

		<description>I really hate this one. No matter how good things are going between a couple in a romantic couple it will always end with the guy chasing the girl through an airport, train station, etc. to prevent her from leaving him.</description>
