Somewhere In The Ether…

Good folks: For a bit of fun, simply list here a film genre and an accompanying cliché that is invariably attached to it.

I’ll start you off to give you the gist:

Action films: It is seemingly contractual that there be a scene wherein the hero has reason to visit a strip club or else a night club to get some information.

I don’t know exactly why said establishments contain such a hive of knowledge but they apparently just do.

Obviously someone will subsequently take offence to the hero’s presence and a massive fight will break out whereupon some unlucky bastard will inevitably be thrown over the bar.

Over to you now

Don't forget that the best friend to the main character has actually been a baddie the whole time, and has been carefully luring the hero into an easily escapable trap in exchange for some dollary-dos

Horror movies, more accurately…..slasher pic’s have a group of 5 or 6 college kids.

Prom king n queen

The chick that puts out for the guys

The virgin

The stoner

The alpha jock male.

1980’s and 1990’s Action films: In the finale the hero must face off against his nemesis in hand to hand combat whereupon he will be promptly beaten to a pulp…..until that is, he suddenly remembers his brothers/best friends/wife’s murder at the hands of the villain and with a sudden surge of a mighty synth soundtrack he miraculously draws upon hidden energy reserves and kicks arse in (decidedly unlikely) style.

Disaster movie: the expert in the field is ridiculed and ignored to start with. See Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow etc.

Rom Coms:

1. Girl hates boy.

2. Girl subsequently falls in love with same boy.

The End

Horror Films: Always remember when opening a cupboard or door that an obligatory, random cat will jump out.

Be sure though not to open any more, for the initial was but a fake scare and the killer WILL be behind any subsequent door openings…

Children's movie: kill one of the main character's parents. Usually the mother but can be the father.

Action Films again: The hero will be shot or injured at some point.

But fear not! Never a head or spinal injury; a bullet or knife wound to conveniently to the shoulder is the norm.

And besides, it never hampers them. Indeed, they continue to use the same arm as though it were but a mere splinter(!!!)

Horror:

No-one has ever seen a horror movie or episode of Scooby Doo and they always go a) wandering off on thier own, or b) got into that scary house where all the murders happened.

Sci-fi:

Despite working for the agency investigating alien activity, they never believe anyone who's had an encounter.

Sci-fi/fantasy:

The Chosen One....there's always a fucking chosen one!

Most genres: Cars driving over cliffs will spontaneously explode BEFORE they hit the ground.

This clearly due to dodgy electrics or something.

Music biopic; the scene where the big shot producer tells them they'll never make it because they're too refreshing and original.

It never rains outside schools, ever.

No one ever fails their driving test.

The only music black people listen to is Rap/blues or hip hop.

So….your gun only has a 10 round capacity?

Don’t worry - In action films this is quadrupled so you’ll never need worry about running out of ammo or reloading again.

But for gawd sake don’t check your magazine at any point, for to do so in an action film will result in only one bullet being left(!!!) and you having to face the golden cliche of needing to make the last one count!

Superhero movies: The villain will throw someone halfway across the room. Instead of just killing them when they are close.

Action: You walk away from an exploding building. You never run. If you do you will jump and fly forwards once the explosion happens

Sewer systems are enormous. And often have many secrets in them. Particularly in New York.

So you’re the hero in an action film and the villain has abducted your partner and/or children?

That sucks!

But wait! Every cloud has a silver lining and all that; Indeed, this is your golden opportunity to get in a car and drive entirely recklessly and at break neck speeds the wrong way down one way streets and over pavements with complete legal impunity and without fear of prosecution.

You’re the good guy after all and as such are physically incapable of harming innocents.

Besides that, every pedestrian you come across will be a professional stunt person who will miraculously jump to safety and with expert precision.

And if in the unlikely event the police do decide to put in an appearance and engage in pursuit, don’t worry, they’ll promptly crash into the very first parked car they come across.

It’s all good

Training montages: A staple in so many action films from the glorious 80’s and 90’s.

Typically accompanied by a manly sounding rock track with lyrics usually about how far you’ve come and you’ve got to fight and shit like that.

This played over the hero working out and clearly is an incredibly efficacious method of getting into shape as within a few minutes of subjecting themselves to it, they were as jacked as fuck!

Woman meets the love of her life when she least expects it. Man does something to ruin it, spends the rest of the film trying to make it to her, he wins her over and they live happily ever after.

Sex scenes in films: Clothes are disrobed so elegantly and the first time sex is always the best both participants have ever experienced with the lady brought to thunderous orgasm via mere penetration and the man having taken off his socks.

Afterwards the man neither farts, nor snores and the lady wakes up the next day with perfect make up still intact.

I call bullshit!

couple, us we him her.

Most films but particularly rom coms.

They always live in amazing apartments and their parents are always loaded and trying to offer the main character money but they don't want to take it as they want to " be independent"

But the Dad is always a controlling arse whilst mum is the best MOM in the world and there's always a loveable wise granny.

.........

All films they never struggle to find a parking space, never lock the car's or put up the windows and can hold a conversation without crashing unless it's part of the script.

It's never spitting with rain it's always absolutely pissing down.
