    Pizza guy rings doorbell, says “special delivery” :D

    The ‘NOOOOOOOO’ cry when someone dies. Three popular variations of this one:

    - A character is killed, the death witnessed by a loved one who reaches out a hand in a futile attempt to save them.
    - Loved one arrives a second too late. This cry is filmed from above (sometimes while zooming out), while the dead persons’ head is cradled.
    - The grieving character learns second hand that their loved one has died. Griever either collapses in tears or throws a tantrum. (Star Wars fans shudder)

    “we’ve got company” when being chased. (first spoken by Han Solo?)

    The scene where a severed hand grabs a guy by the throat.

    It's in every movie from When Harry Met Sally to Biodome.

    Martial Arts tough guy relises he's not the toughest in the world. Goes off and does some soul searching and trains with wise old man with quirky personality then comes back, kicks arse, gets the girl and everyone to believe in him again. (Insert training montage here) :D

    Horror movies have a very specific formula:

    1. You can never have sex. The minute you get a little nookie, you're as good as gone. Sex always equals death.

    2. Never drink or do drugs. The sin factor. It's an extension of number one.

    3. Never, ever, ever, under any circumstances, say "I'll be right back".

    Watched Scream at all lately?

    Whenever there the scene where you are revealed the alien spacecraft at Area 51 or the Top Secret Military Facility or the military secret weapons development laboratory there's alway an airlocked door and low angled lighting through fog.
    ...
    The romantic comedy always has the long, deep hearted momologue... you know. the 'You complete me...' monologue. At least you know the movie is about to end.
    ...
    You can always tell the bad guys (who will meet their death when they ignore the warnings of the good guys) because they always are a well regimented unit with matching sunglasses, black suits and drive black vehicles in formation... compared to the good guys who are an eclectic mix of rag-tag, quirky misfits who dress like bums and drive vehicles are pieces of crap.
    ...
    The comedic side-kick that you know will die in the arms of the hero.
