CURRENT MOVIE CLICHES

Oh okay . So if the woman orgasms from the guy and the guy has no sexual prowess, then would that be a stereotyping, even if it's true that some women do that?

Vomiting has been around in films for decades.
The Exorcist in the 70s comes to mind

Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen a movie character sit down at a laptop and utilize a mouse.

I've noticed this in courtroom dramas, movies or TV...whenever the lawyer stands to question a witness, they always button one button on their jacket before leaving the table. On the other hand, I never see them unbutton that same button when they sit back down.

Maybe not so much of a cliche, but a pet peeve of mine.


Food being wasted in shows and movies. For example, there will be a simple or elaborate display of food and the actors barely touch it or at the most take a spoonful and then get up and leave to do something. I can understand if something bad happens and they have to quickly leave. But most often that's not the case, and characters simply leave their plates that are full.

I've always wondered about this too. You can't un-ring a bell. Judges are always telling jurors to disregard a piece of testimony. Maybe they aren't allowed to use said testimony when voting on the verdict, but they still heard it and it's not going to be erased from their memory or shade their deliberations.

I can't remember which youtube video, but a lawyer on youtube had a channel, where he debunked this in movies and said that judges aren't allowed to tell jurors to do this in real life, because if the jury is contaminated with tainted evidence, they need to get a new jury then, or it's grounds for a mistrial.

Oh Lord yes, this is one that's gotten so ubiquitous that it seems as though every series or film has to have an obligatory barf scene: barfing on the floor, barfing on oneself, or the standard commode ralphing. I'll be glad when writers get tired of using this one...

Another cliche is a lot of times when the hero is torturing info out of a villian, the villain has to then go and insult the hero, or his murdered wife, etc, thereby antagonizing the hero into executing him. He could have maybe lived, if he hadn't decided to slip a final insult in there.

Heck, yes, here in America. Canadians don’t do this, eh?

Good luck trying to achieve this with someone new.

Guys can orgasm easily. As soon as they discover masturbation.

You’re right and, yes, we appear to be.

A guy can get off any time anywhere.

Well, he would have to have some clue as to what he’s doing. Not necessarily prowess. Some women orgasm very easily, but I would say most women don’t.

Americans waste a ton of food in movies & in real life. Restaurant portions, e.g., are huge.

First barfing scene I ever saw was poor Adriana in The Sopranos when the feds scared her into thinking she was going to prison. As you say, vomit is literally everywhere now.

Oh okay, well what do I know about sex, I guess I just thought it was generalizing, but maybe genders are generalized in sex .

Another cliche I picked up on, and the movie Freaky recently did this too, is whenever you have a high school movie, about a nerdy girl unnattractive girl that the guys don't want, they always have to higher a goodlooking and sexy attress to play her, and try to make her look unattractive.

Right. And the “ugly” girl wears huge glasses which she eventually whips off to show that she really is good-looking.

Yeah. Would it be a death sentence to the movie to cast an average or below average looking actress?

Depends on the movie. Obviously or a ton of actresses would be out of work.

But wouldn't more lesser looking actresses get work then?

Don’t they get a lot of work now?

I think people feel (and this makes sense to me) that once a lawyer is involved ***t really did get real.

But if you are arrested, hasn't ***t already got real?

I never really thought about this until I read this, but it's true...tons and tons of food gets totally wasted in movie.

I've noticed the food thing as well. Another cliche in horror movies, when a group of people are being hunted they say they will stick together, but they then they split up, like Alien, The Thing, Leviathan, etc.
