"The villain will almost always kidnap the hero's woman in an atempt to destroy the hero's heart and spirit, but instead it gives him the will to go on and ends up being the villain's downfall, or the woman he kidnaps will end up defeating him." Guilty as charged!

So the next challenge, official or otherwise, will be to write something while avoiding every cliche in here...

My favourite is the cop who's two weeks away from retirement, or has just given his two weeks notice. You just know he's about to die.

My personal favorite is in horror movies, when they have the biggest house, they only have one phone. And conveniently, it's a cordless. Watch Scary Movie 3, they do a gag in there about that. That's really when i first realized that.

That is probably the most hilariously true statement on teh face of the earth. Watch the movie "Colors."

I like how aliens always seem to speak subtitled English. I'm actually about to write a Sci-Fi movie. I might have to avoid this.
