Also it's funny how villains always give big speeches too their victims, thus giving them time to escape.
For gods sake, if your going to kill them, why the hell explain them why and make a speech in front of them?

Superhero movies where the hero has the the ability to disappear when the person talking to them looks away for a half a second.

Oh I hate when people who don't speak English try to speak it with their mother tongue accent, thus appearing that they are actually talking something other than english.
Why do they do this?
Are American that lazy, that they can't read 8 lines of subtitles?

Quote from WtfI ****ing hate when every single hero is saved from a monster when something falls and makes nois behind it.
Like:
"Well this is it, I'm going to die!
Monster: GAAAAAAAHRGH
*something makes noise behind the monster*
*monster turns*
*monster ignores and turns back to the hero*
*hero is gone*
Also I hate when superheroes have all this crazy abilities and never use it to get away from difficult situations.
It's annoying whenever the hero wins by luck. It takes away the badassery.

It's always the red wire. Why can't they take us by surprise and make it the "golden-brown with white stripes" wire?

Because that would be a straw.

Now that this thread comes up, I just think about something; gunshot wounds.
When you're hit by a bullet, no matter where, be it the torso, lets, arrms or, especially, the shoulder, there's a good chance you'll bleed to death really fast. Almost every untreated bullet wound is lethal, no matter where it hits. There are arteries in the legs and the arms and huge blood vessels, even bigger blood vessels in the shoulder. The good guys just walking away with a shot to the shoulder like it's nothing is completely not realistic. Every shot you take as a human has to be considered lethal if not treated soon and effectively.
Related, is that when the bad guy red shirts get shot, they fall down and stay on the floor, which is just as dumb. While a shot will most likely eventually kill you, it will not do so instantly. Unless it's a shot to the head or the heart, or a lucky one that hits the lungs really good, the victim will still be very able to retaliate after being shot. In war and shootouts, it occurs quite often that people do not even realize they have been shot, because the stress and the tension of the firefight distract them from the pain.

Forgot about this thread. I was just thinking about a cliche just yesterday. You know when a character really has to use the bathroom and is unable to do so right away so he sits their listening to someone inadvertently talk about things that remind them of using the bathroom which make their situation even worse? Like in Van Wilder when Tara Reid gave her boyfriend some laxatives so he took a shit in a trashcan.

So my family and I were viewing Deep Blue Sea on television for the thousandth time and it made me think of something for this thread as well. Every single time they heard a strange sound or saw something obviously dangerous, they did not instantly run. They waited until literally the last second (or even until after the obvious upcoming negative event began) to get moving. So I guess the cliché here is complete idiocy.

That's pretty much the same thing for all horror movies. Either they wait until they see the scary monster axe-murderer before they run, or they yell out "Who's there?" when they here a noise.

They also never check behind them when they should and always check behind them when they shouldn't.

i remember in the 6th season of 24, after jack was stabbed in the shoulder, the wound disappeared after like 5 hours.
