Films are loaded with 'em these days. "Ghost Ship" is one of the worst pieces of drivel, I've had to endure, and couldn't help but spot them everywhere. Let's hear some typical movie cliches that get on your nerves...

Sounds scarily like The Punisher :0x
The action hero easily defeats rooms full of trained bad guys, often fighting several at a time, yet at the end of the film struggles to beat some random tall bloke (who is usually bald, wearing a white vest and has a moustash) in a fight, just before fighting the main bad guy.
An outpost, on the edge of space...
One man...
When your life is no longer your own...
When everything you know is wrong...
A robot cop, a robot renegade cop...
Anyone ever see the trailer for Comedian? Genius.

Two Americanisms that really peesch me off:
- Someone hangs up and the person on the other end says "Hello?" when there's obviously a dead dial tone.
- People never finish their food. A blatant example being Bruce Almighty - he just sits down for 30 seconds, takes one bite and leaves when he could've easily taken his time eating and done whatever he was doing later.
- People ring the doorbell and wait about 5-10 seconds before either ringing the doorbell again, banging or shouting. In this country, the normal people wait a good 30 seconds to a minute before ringing again.
- People taking their time to answer the door. E.g. Nip/Tuck (I realise it's not a film, but it's still relevant), where the guy's in the shower, and gets dressed in a full suit before answering the door. Most would either not answer it at all, or just answer in a robe or something. By the time they've had time to get dressed and have a 3-course meal as does happen [/sarc], the person knocking the door/ringing the doorbell would've left.
Grrrr, the second one annoys me so much.

the main character surviving 99% of the time. Against all the odds.
the down and out team that turn their fortunes around and win the big prize at the end.. usually with a soaring string score over the top.
