Yeh that's pretty amazing.. annoying too.

If the monster is walking really slow, the frightened victim falls down and gets his or her foot caught in something and can't run away.

At some point in a monster movie, a very small innocent child is in peril and is rescued in the nick of time.

(For a change, I would like to see the monster eat an innocent child.)

But NOOOOOO the monster always eats people we don't know or care about or it eats the bad guy or the vice-hero.

(The vice-hero is not the main hero, but the lesser hero who gets killed saving someone else, like the drunk uncle in the movie "Independence day" who destroyed the alien space ship at the cost of his life.)

The vice-hero always has some personal flaw, and he's not all that sexy. He always gets killed saving someone.

When the good guy is badly outnumbered and being shot at by dozens of bad guys the bad guys will all aim really badly.

"From "Law and Order" we learn many things:

**Don't ever talk to the detectives without your lawyer, it does not matter if you are innocent or guilty."

That is a very good rule for real life!!

From "Law and Order" we learn:

That there's always two cops who go in the front door while the perp sneaks out the back.

That after he sneaks out the back, not to worry - they automatically catch him running down the street, and run - with gun in hand (not bothering to shoot the idiot) and miraculously catch him within a few city blocks.

That crime doesn't pay - they'll find you within a half an hour, and a half an hour later - you'll be found guilty.

Most of the time the perp is caught when he goes to see his girlfriend and she is always in bed scantily clad when the two cops chase him out the window and down the fire escape.

She will usually scream and curse at the cops.

can't believe this one wasn't said.

in every action movie where there is a bad guy to find, the good guy/guys will have to go to a strip club or club of some sort before they can find them.

since i'm watching godfather part II as i write this:

the mob boss will never die the first time he gets shot, no matter how many times or where you shoot him!

Yep there's always a strip joint in there somewhere.


Also... in every P.I. detective, or cop show there is always a guy on the street that knows everything about what is going on. They have to pay him, threaten him, or rough him up to get the information.

At some point in every investigation you are going to need a computer hacker.

Every person with an Irish accent is dangerous and involved in underground activities like gun smuggling.

When hiding in a cave with a small opening, you enemies will come in one at a time so you can pick them off easily.

The leaders on apposing sides of any final battle always have to do battle in person with each other, therefore it is safe to say that neither will get killed by anyone else during said battle.

I've never seen any exceptions to this rule. It is the law of the universe I guess.

When a killer is loose in the house, the victim will always try the phone only to find out the lines have been cut. This was especially popular before cell phones.


Now, with the cell phones, the victim will try to call the cops...but, alas...no signal, or dead battery.

Yes, the movies have caught up to technolgy. Now there are no phone wires to cut.

Burn notice last night:

The bank robbers had some electronic device that jammed all the cell phone signals.

Technology flawed:

Police still can't seem to trace a call unless the person talks for a number of minutes, and yet caller I.D.is instant.

What's wrong with that picture?

Stupid criminals.

They always color code their bombs' wires so it always comes down to the green/blue/white wire.

And if you cut the wrong one, you're dead, if you cut the right one the bomb stops, nevermind, they always attach a countdown clock, preferably a digital one.

I could easily screw these cops. Have all wires the same color and set the bomb at a random time to go off, not when it reaches zero!

When a person runs from a murderer or monster, they look everywhere, nervously waiving around with the flashlight and you know the evil one will be right front of them, when they finally bring the camera forward.

The flashlight batteries always go bad, and someone either has matches or a lighter, and the monster waits patiently until the match or the lighter is lit, and stares right into their face before killing them or eating them.


There is always time for a dying person to say something important and the same thing with the evil ones, before they kill someone they tell you a whole story and then let off an evil laugh.

While the hero of the movie driving in a rainy weather, they got some terrible windshield wipers, the water is pouring down on the windshield, can't see a thing.

When there is someone watching TV in the movie, it's either cartoons or some movies from the 30s.

When the people eat their dinner, they seems to chew on for minutes on one single bite.

You never see an Operating system (like Windows XP or Mac OS) on the computers. It's always some weird green text on black background. You don't see them opening their Outlook Express or Windows Mail, but some funny animation of "you got mail" or a blinking message on the screen. I always wondered where I can get these cool operating systems.

Ohh, and they never use a mouse for their computers. It's always just typing away quick and they got all sorts of futuristic 3D stuff coming up.

Finding the right password to hack into anywhere, involves 2 minutes of typing codes and stuff, in best case scenario 2-3 tries of combination of words, that comes into the mind of the hacker will break into a maximum security server.

a six shot revolver will fire ten shots, and double barreled shotguns never need reloading (if you got it at S-Mart )
