Most over-done cliche in cinema.

In zombie flicks you usually get someone running away, who always seems to fall over a leaf and end up "breaking" their ankle...

you also always have the big tough black who makes good use of the word "motherf****r"
:D
 
The hero's kiRAB who live with their mum come to stay, eldest (usually teenage) child prefers stepdad more, calls hero by first name, but is ultimately calling him 'dad' by the end of the film.

The president being a gun weilding badass
 
The place our heros have to infiltrate/escape from always having a perfectly person-sized and navigateable piping system.

The "I love you dad/mom" scene that pretty much tells us mom/dad is going to die fairly soon.

Villains always having easily hackable computer systems/easily guessable passworRAB to get into their master plans.

Children generally not dying in action/horror films despite much stronger and more competent adults kicking the bucket (there are exceptions, but they're generally few and far between).
 
The ones thats always get me are:

- hotel rooms which anyone can just enter without a key (I've never seen one of these in reallife)

- All computers have huge font text, the the letters scroll along the screen rather than just appear

- Divorced couples always love their ex and want to dump their new partners to get back with them

grrrr :mad::)
 
- Cars never starting when you need to get somewhere/get away from something
- When the bad guy has a gun pointed at the good guy and just keeps talking, allowing the good guy to escape somehow
 
All people who have a need to type can do so at 1000 worRAB per minute - and never have to go back to make a correction.

Nobody ever breaks wind.

Nobody ever says "excuse me, I really need to have a piss."
 
So the pretty young girl is in her undies, she looks in the bathroom cabinet mirror. Then opens the cabinet door. Then closes the door.

It used to be there was someone there in the reflection. Now it's like every film is doing this with no one there. As if they think they fooled you.

Maybe they will add a variation so when look down to spit their toothpaste out and then bam, hello bad guy.
 
Impeneterable security systems are normally made up of visible beams across a room making it difficult, but not impossible for the hero to walk through. No-one ever has motion sensors which would go off straight away.

How about, visually, every police car parked at an incident has to have its red and blue lights flashing. Even if the incident has finished and the hero and heroine are talking at the end. Visually eye catching. Not something that happens.
 
In comedy films, if someone walks in on someone having sex or doing something embarrassing, all music stops & the sound of a record scratching is usually heard
