I just tidied my bookmarks and found a link to the movie cliché list – this one is about seven years old, so you may know it already. Steven Kremer compiled this huuuge compendium of Hollywood’s stereotypes over six years and it’s a very entertaining read. Some examples:
“A cup of black coffee/splash of cold water in face is enough to render the most inebriated person stone cold sober in a split second”
“Whenever anyone knocks out anyone else and takes their clothes, it’s always a flawless fit.”
“You never have to use the space-bar when typing long sentences.”
“All women moan during sex, but none sweat.”
“If you lose a hand, it causes the stump of your arm to grow by six inches.”
