In this thread, we are movie cliches

I jump out of a helicopter that is blowing up onto a skyscraper and stand up with only a scratch above my eyebrow and a tear in my pants, but everyone else is dead.

I am the downtrodden, divorced first wife who reinvents herself and becomes a megastar -power broker - corporate success because I had it all along but never knew it. Ex husband ends up sitting across from me at big negotiation where I kick his a** to the curb.

I'm the big shot ex-husband that doesn't have enough time for my kids. Then, christmas happens and I drive really fast in my car with my oldest daughter riding shotgun. Everything is suddenly forgiven and forgotten. A valueable lesson is learned by all, I drop my incredibly hot supermodel girlfriend and go back to my exwife who takes me back, rejecting a much more stable and emotionaly healthy relationship, because it was christmas and I drove fast in my car.

I'm also the guy that takes too long to explain things.

Cliche or not, that sounds like a good strategy for a bank robber.

I'm the girl who never fit in who just learned that she is secretly a princess!

I'm the crazy cat lady who lives down the street in the creepy house.

I'm the girl who has been in love with her best guy friend since the one time they shared a chocolate milk at lunch in 3rd grade, only to realize it when he announces that he's met "the one" and they are getting married. I'll spend 90 minutes lamenting on all the times he's kissed me on the forehead, helped me through hard times and shared a passionate kiss that meant nothing, because, you know, we were kinda drunk that night.

I may or may not have a weird confrontation with the fiance, but in my head i know its all good because she's going down and im gonna get my man. I'll talk to my sassy, free-spirited best friend (who lives in an awesome apartment but sells handmade bracelets on the street two days a week) about it all the time, who just knew we shouldve been together from that one party in college when we just looked so cute together. She may try to talk some sense into me, but in the end, she'll just tell me to do what's in my heart. And i will, by making a mad dash to the altar in sweats and bedhead in hopes of catching him before the nuptials are read, and professing all that is my love for him via a corny song lyric from our favorite song in 7th grade.

Clearly, he'll ditch his former wife-to-be for me, and the wedding party will clap and cheer for us. Free-spirit BFF will be in the background getting felt up by the guy's old creepy uncle. Guy will throw off his tux jacket and we'll run out of the church to some destination unknown so we can be together forever.

I am the overly independent woman in a powerful position at work. I am horrible to my employees and treat my assistant like dirt. Then one day, a strange and mysterious person shows me what a terrible person I am by either turning the tables on me or showing my life in a "Christmas Carol" way. I go back to work having learned my lesson and now have a new outlook on life.

And I am your embittered colleague who warns you how your efforts will fail and what these kids need is to master the basics.

I'm the most beautiful girl on the ship, and I have hot, rich fiance. I meet this homeless (but also hot) guy on the ship that first night, and we fall in love almost immediately. We have passionate sex in the cargo area of the ship, then the next night, hot homeless guy dies when the ship goes down. I leave my fiance when we are rescued and my life is forever changed by this one guy I knew for just two days.

I'm a cheerleader who is now in charge/a part of a team that is disliked because of our location/new 'talent'/old coach/we are cursed so I will bring together a team that has no backing/talent/practice area so we can compete against the other team(s). In the end we usually win against all odds or we come in second to a great team. Also our cheers usually start out really theatrical and all of our stunts are down in slow motion with the cameras really zoomed in.

Im the all-star athlete and most popular guy in the school but what i really want to do is be in the school musical even though my friends would think im gay but at the end i realise that artsy things are more important than sports.

Im the serial killer that you feel kind of sorry for because you learn that he had a bad child hood towards the end of the movie.

Im the only black dude in the movie who hangs around all the white kids and says things like "damn" and "that is wack!"

[KSUViolet06]

I'm the kid with the dog that has some unbelieveable talent such as the ability to play football/basketball/soccer. Too bad no one believes me.

[wolffootball37]

im the guy that always hangs around the bad guy in the film with 2 other guys, but we never talk, we just stand there and chuckle.
