What is your most hated cliche?

[Dexiro]

The I'M SO NICE AND SWEET AND PERFECT CHICK IN EVERY RPG MY HAIR IS BLONDE AND I NEED TO BE SAVED. OH DID I MENTION I AM THE HEALER?

oh god... that too.... why is the healer always female?

It would be nice to see a game with a male healer and put a female is a more male oriented role.

Disgaea has male healers but they look like women, it's weird xD

We need a big burly healer

Are you being bothered by a decently powered, or even super powered heroine?

Worry not! Just follow these simple instructions and that feisty femine ffff... uh, hero... will be your captivity in seconds!

Step one: Sneak up behind her, or appear suddenly.

Step two: Grab her forearm.

Congratulations! As long as they do not realise they have a second arm, two feet or other appendage to attack you with, you have now secured a female hostage.

Stay tuned and we'll tell you exactly how to gloat at your nemesis while they MacGuyvers themselves a shiv to shank you with.

"Head them off at the pass?"

I HATE that cliche

Cookie on offer.

Blazing Saddles!

OP: Superfluous love interests.

I'd like a movie where the bad guys won for once, on equal grounds. The good guys always winning tends to get old.

They did and it was horrible. It was called the star wars prequels.

Not all of it was horrible. The storyline and special effects kicked motherfucking ass, it's just that the dickheaded producers forgot what to do with them.

I couldn't disagree with you more on the story. It was confusing, boring and illogical. The characters were wooden and unlikeable and there has been a decade of books, comics, video games and tv shows to try to fill in the plot holes and it still doesn't work.

Take a look at Redlettermedia's review of the story in the Phantom Menace. It explains it better than I ever could while being freakin' hilarious.

I don't think they realise that controlling the world is HARD! I mean, just try and play Sim-City or something, that's hard, now imagine it was the whole world. and they could rise up against you if you mess up.

I'm sure someone has said this but villains who take forever just to kill the guy and by that time the good guy does something to overturn the tide of batlle. Why don't villains just kill the douche and be on with it

 

[GrinningManiac]

Firstly:
Unnamed Soldier: AAAARGH *Dies instantly from gunshot, screaming and flailing*
Secondary Character: Oh No! I have been Shot! I am Dying! I am Coughing! But let me tell you all the important things I have to say! Let me comfort my friends and family! Let me tell So-and-So that I'm proud of him. I forgive Blah-de-blah, I always wanted to die for my country! It's okay that I'm dying! I have just enough...breath...to...say...something...poignant! Uuugh...*Dies peacefully, eyes close, arm falls limp*

Secondly:
Villain who everyone hates and wants the hero to kill: Strike me down and I will become all-powerful/You will become like me, succumb to your hatred!
Hero: No! I shall remain the good guy and not kill you! This prooves I have restraint and respect for human life!


The first one is just pathetic, because I fail to see how importance in the plot denotes the ability to die peacfully in the event of horrific injuries whilst saying everything that needs to be said (except, sometimes, the all important thing, which they die in the middle of explaining)

The second one is just annoying. YOU want to kill him, the HERO wants to kill him, and the VILLAIN (apparantly) thinks that being killed makes him the winner. And if you DON'T kill him, don't act all suprised when he turns on you and stabs you/your friend/love interest. He JUST gave a speech on how HE had no honour! Prooving you have honour does not negate his lack thereof...OF COURSE HE F*CKING STABS YOU

The good guys always win thing, fucking dumb.

 

[Ziggy the wolf]

*pumps fist* yea...im just fat lol jk

 

[Ziggy the wolf]

as for me its the last minute before the big fight "if we dont make it out of this alive, i just want you to know...i love you!" after knowing them for about a day. i hate that. i would love to see the female lead just say "meh whatever..." that would be the greatest movie/game in my opinion

 

[wax88]

villians who talk too much...when they should've just shot the guy...

i cant remember from where but one movie made fun of that cliche by saying: " if you need to shoot, shoot, dont talk"

 

[SageRuffin]

Black guys are rappers and die first

Damn... beat me to it.

 

[CriticalGriffin]

The title should be changed to "What cliché do you actually like?".

 

[Elexia]

I hate cliches like the plague.

Okay, okay, it's the noble hero. "You may have caused wars, killed hundreds of people, molested my house and burned down my wife... but since you're about to fall off a cliff, let me offer you my hand."

I completely agree with that. I understand the original conclusion of the battle between Iron Man and War Monger in the movie had that sort of thing, but thankfully they cut it out.
