Hidden bc bad words.

And I forgot: "where are you going? -Out!" and the rebellious kid doing 1 drug and almost having 1 sex, dropping out of school but everyone likes them and is worried; buisness mom who has a breakdown because she hadn't seen this coming and she shouldn't have prioritised her career; dad being concerned for exactly 2 sentences and nobody knows wth he prioritised; weird homeless guy was actually a private detective and has a decisive role.

The woman who removes her glasses and become sexy.
The veteran who is always a bad ass.
The gay dude who is up to date with fashion trends.
Boy's haircut on a women means lesbian.
My favourite: the assassin who killed many without remorse but turns into a romantic when he meets the actress who is so soooo beautiful.

What I hate most is the liberal crap they push in all movies.
The woman who can beat up the 200-300 lbs man when the hero couldn't.
A character who has no prejudice at all (I mean why can't a character be racist or homophobic then grow out of his prejudices).
I could add more of this shit.

In a "hood" movie, the white dude/ lady is always the villain.

Lol the glasses one... Without glasses I faceplant into a wall, that trope annoys me so much x)
In the same alley, a girl who starts smart and ugly will get a makeover, but pretty girls are always dumb, and the more make-up they have, the bitchier they are.
The kid who's smart enough to overthrow a whole organisation
The perfect neighbourhood that is, in fact, not perfect :o The judgemental lady who looks all clean and perfect and wears some pearls has ni fact skeletons in her closet. She either aborted as a teen, killed someone, or is cheating on her husband. If they have a daughter, she's a drug addict. Of course, all parties have alcohol, drugs, loud music and weird lighting.

The mother who sees ghosts but husband call her unstable.
The kid who has imaginary friend but whose mother thinks it's normal.
The old dude who is always wise.
Autistic kid has special powers.
New superpowers but is somehow broke.
Orphan is always grim and pessimistic.

I forgot, people like hugh Jackman, Chris hemsworth are not attractive in movies.

...I'd like to believe it's normal and I wasn't a completely messed up child. Anyways when the imaginary friend begins to wreck havoc, parents are fighting instead of leaving the house with bleeding walls.
Also 3 months in a loving family and orphan is suddenly happy like all the other kids (except in The Orphan)
If a character becomes smart, the formerly smart one will make rookie mistakes for contrast effect
The buisnessman/woman meets love and realise the true meaning of life. They move back in the hero(in)'s hometown.
The little kid is saved at the end.

I would bet you look good with or without glasses. Anyway,
The strict army sergeant who is always wrongfully suspected when a crime happens.
The smart dude who becomes dumb when in a relationship.
The making out in public at high school.
The man who is a good dad but gets killed for the hero's character development.
The dominant one in the relationship is always the girl.
The heroine who is smart but has a psychotic boyfriend (I mean does she not see the red flags).
The women who gather to only talk about penis size (interestingly, nowadays it's always the black girl in the group who brings up this subject of conversation).
Glorification of what can only be described as toxic feminity (cheating is normal, abuse is normal when it's done to the dude, being independent also means being an asshole to men and so on.).
Using Ouijja board and spells is normal behaviour for teens.

Thanks sweetie^^
Oh yeah, psychotic behaviour like jealousy and a strong sense of possession is shown as desirable (looking directly at Usui from Kaichou wa Maid sama, but there are others)
The cop who eats donuts 24/7
The dude with a guitar at a campfire. Someone is telling scary stories. A girl screams and playfully hit them. Suddenly, there's a noise next to them.
The grumpy dude whose life changes thanks to an animal.
The jock ends up with the smart girl after her makeover.
If someone isn't interested in dating or popularity, it's only because they don't know how to attain them.
The parents are Cool Guys and so children would get away with anything.
Every white woman has either perfectly straight or perfectly curled hair, no natural frizz or waviness. Every black woman has the perfect afro. Asian women always have their hair down and wear smart clothes, sometimes a yukata if the scene needs an ethnic vibe.

Speaking of Ouija board, you can get them anywhere, while I've searched a long while for one as a teen.
The dad who's friendly towards all the neighbourhood and serves as replacement dad for other kids.
Parents are weirdly detached from their children though. Their son could have committed murder and living in the sewers for 3 months, they'd be like "How was school today sweetie :)"

Let's do more cliche of horror movies:
The demon who won't say his name.
God won't save them, they need to save themselves.
The mirror cabinet thing in the bathroom when closed the demon will appear.
The mirror or tv reflection where a figure appears but the hero doesn't see it.
He sees the figure but is curious.
Go in the basement when old piano is playing.
I mean with no weapon, no light.
Flashlight runs out of batteries when demon is close.
Demon make boy/ girl do crazy shit but no one sees a suspicious change of behaviour (for some reason, they expect their kid to murder a pigeon - just kids being kids stuff). Even if the kid is well behaved, no one will find it strange that his behaviour changes abruptly. They just tell the kid to stop playing around.

I forgot: the exorcist with a dark past.

Lights flickering. No one tries to fix them though.
Calling any non-Western religion a legend
"So the lore says, if we do X thing, we'll die." *does thing* *dies* *surprised Pikachu*
The weird, sus af neighbour actually saves the kids
Footprints in dust or snow
"Is this... blood?" (bonus point if it's obviously ketchup)
The mysterious book written 500 years ago is in incredibly good state, always written in latin, and butchering the pronunciation doesn't matter, the demon will kindly understand and show up.
Anyone can bleed through their eyes when possessed, and their circulatory system goes back to normal once exorcised.

The mum who does research, finds the solution shows to husband with proof of symptoms match etc... Only for the husband to take the child away from her.
Husband obsessed with previous tenant and always find weird shit when doing DIY.
The experts who come to the house but husband is a dickhead and won't listen to their conclusion.
Phenomenons are selective to specific characters. For instance, the batshit crazy stuff (teeth falling out, weird bruises, decomposition of body part etc...) will only target one member of the family. You would think a powerful demon would establish dominance by affecting all the members of the family but nonononono he needs to influence only the mother's or the father's or the kid's life.

Omg yes (although if I was a demon I'd find it hilarious to make everyone think someone's insane until they believe it themselves.)
The family who wants to start anew in this big house who was a real bargain
Kid who frantically draws a lot of scenes with a lot of black, blood, and a character with a big mouth
The photo with a little girl holding a doll. She's been dead for more than 100 years. Later, the doll is found in a secluded room.
Somewhere, a big rusty mirror.
The woman in the opening scene who runs and trips on a root.

The bargain house who is well furnished but noone asks why it's so cheap.
The spirits in the house who wants to kill a the character because as a pure coincidence, the character is related to the spirits in some way or form.
The library who has all documentation. I mean every piece of document. Need help finding a murderer? Well records are in the library. The occult? Go to the specific aisle. Records of all the deceased? No need to go to the municipality and ask permission. Go, you guessed it.. to the deceased people section in the library.
The demon cannot cross locked doors. But can himself lock the doors for some reason.
We are broke but cannot move out however when the demon kill one of us, we will move out.

The basement has strange markings in it, a few stains, and are those chains on the wall?
The parent who acted quite weak throughout the whole movie but dramatically attacks the demon/spirit/murderer to protect their children
If there's a couple, one will watch the other die
Any music instrument will make noise at an uncomfortable time, sometimes accidentally when the victims are escaping
Alternatively, when the perfect library doesn't exist, someone uses a computer to do some research. They will have glasses on, a mug with tea or coffee in one hand, pen in the other. Then, they will print everything out and use a yellow highlighter on almost every line.
When people move in, they'll take an item from a box and tell the child it's from whatever ancestor. The poltergeist will throw it against a wall for emotional effect.
Also, we're broke but everyone has the latest technology, never wears the same clothes once, the fridge is fuller than any fridge I've seen irl and they have 2 big cars.

Lets move on to thrillers:
The hero who doesn't want to do it anymore but gets a change of heart.
The unlimited ammo.
Badass but is righteous and liberal.
Wife cheats on obsessed detective.
Hero's love interest is young, annoying, unfunny, sexy and does stupid stuff.
Independent Women are always assholes.

Hollywood can no longer write women.

"I'm too old for that shit" proceeds to land mad jump perfectly
Also, strong women (or more accurately the strong woman, can't have more than one smh) will often belittle typical girlie girl interests for contrast.
The good guys know the general area where a victim is held captive, but will they arrive on time? (They will, but it's a close call)
A car gets crashed, one way or another.
Cops are there to decorate the streets, it seems.
The bad guys have morals and won't be shown just shooting someone for the sake of it. Of course, they give long speeches and get killed during them.
The hero has a scene with a little kid or a dog to show they can fight but are also a Good Guy. (no cats though, Hollywood is discriminating against cool animals)
Teamwork is efficient, you don't have an asshole trying to pretend like he did everything, or an idiot trying to do the thing despite having no idea how he should proceed.
No one ever needs to use the bathroom at a critical time.

Cool last words instead of "oh shit, it hurts".
I won but at what price.
A killer is on the loose, thank god there is this one guy to stop him, no need for all agencies to hunt the baddies.
FBI is coming, we don't like them.
No need to share information with my superiors, only I need to have this to have a step ahead.
I work alone, I don't mix well with others.

Doesn't look at the explosion he's created
"I'll never do this!" *does this*
The character who is kind but goes berserk when you touch their girlfriend if it's a guy, kids if it's a woman.
"I hope you know what you're doing, because we don't have a warrant and I'm risking my job"
The workalone character is paired with the starry-eyed new recruit. They'll grow a fondness towards the newbie, but will try to hide it.
If someone got fired for being a crook, it was in fact their superior's fault.
However, no matter how big the drug bust, no one is ever sampling the goods.

Here is my badge, I just give it to you, no need for paperwork.
Villain will never shoot my vital organ.
You don't know what it's like to be on the field.
Informant is always a stupid fuck who always gets killed.
Obligatory good mafia boss for balance.
He is back and now the villain is weaker for some reason.
Ultra tech which will only be used once or not used at all.

Unless you have more on thriller movies, we can go on fantasy?
The shy kid is the one the dragon/other big creature obeys.
The creature who comes from a "bad species" but is nice, the tackle at racism can be more or less subtle.
Natural magic is women's thing (this one's been a cliché for the past few centuries)
Bad guys have black eyes, or very rarely white pupils.
Vampires drink blood directly from a neck but they're less messy than me with a glass
Only the hero has ever heard of monsters etc., no one knows how to escape a vampire for instance.
Other stuff might circle back to horror movies.

The young unwise hero/ heroine who suddenly becomes wise because of you know circumstances.
Sure you took 10-30 yrs to master the mystic arts but I only have 3 weeks so.
The hero is always the chosen one.
The vilain is strong but love is stronger. For instance, one look at his new crush who he just met 2 days ago is enough to give him insurmountable powers.
The magic and powerful friend who appears once and always disappears at crucial moments.
The weapon who is hidden but somehow is very close to the hero's location.
Going on a long journey, no need for backpacks or provisions, heroes don't eat.

4 people vs an army. No worries, they will attack us one by one.
