I dunno, is Jerry Dandridge considered "cool"?

OK, I'll grant you Milla Jovovovovovovich. Aye, the mountains truly be but hills but the landscape is still worth surveying quite closely.

Oh, come now, how is Jerry not cool? Look at the man as the Fearless Prince Humperdinck!

In any pre-1990 movie, if an "unauthorized" person tries to enter a computer system, the words ACCESS DENIED will flash up on the screen in a big, red Ariel typeface.

In older movies, all secret technology (such as death rays) will look like a bunch of stereo gear and Navy surplus electronics stacked in a clothes closet.

Besides, she makes up for it in brains. Milla can always go get implants, , , but bimbos will always be bimbos. .

When being chased at 100 miles an hour by someone in a car next to you no one ever thinks to simply hit the breaks.

Only skateboarders and social outcasts smoke pot in movies, and only upclass lawyers and people wearing suits use cocaine (and thats the only drug that aparently exists to these people)

You can in fact send email and voice/data to the center of the earth wirelessly.

You can also track anything in the world with GPS satellites, even if its 200 miles below the surface of the earth (The Core was full of wonderful screwups)

Hollywood server farms never have cat5/fiber showing, they all magically just work....

Anyone can hack into an encrypted network by plugging a laptop into a server rack. period.

Cellphones never have a signal when your stranded or in danger.

"Douche-baggery."  I love it.  I can't wait to say this at work tomorrow.  The first time someone screws up, I'll be prepared with, "This happened because of you and your douche-baggery!"

We use the term "ass-hattery" for this in my unit.

Boss: Enough with this ass-hattery, get back to work.

Nicole Kidman is only a 34B which is fine in my world but rather flat in Hollywood.


But other movie cliches, I saw one last night on a movie.

Any you need to board up a window or door there is always plenty of wood in the house already cut to the correct length with nails already started on each end. I know I have a closet full of them, just in case.

You can also get a wireless signal (Cell phone or internet) anywhere on earth even in the deep Amazon or in caves. Unless you are in danger.

Were you watching Night of the Living Dead last night? They had quite a bit of spare wood and nails in the house.

Not full blown "B" but based in "B"

Bewitched and Batman Forever

No it was Mosquito one lame flick. I think it was on Sci-Fi, might have been Chiller. And the busted out wood had very interesting zig-zag cuts that all looked very much alike, must have been a special wood to break like that from the zig-zag tree.

Here is the cover if you wish to punish yourself.

......"Now toddle off and fly your flying machine."

Killer Bees

There is only ever one hero who is strong and capable, never several even if Earth has been taken over by 9 foot hairy alien beings and the humans must rise up against them to reclaim their planet.

And whenever said hero fights these 9 foot aliens, he can get pummelled and beaten and thrown 20 feet across the landscape but he never looks bloodied or broken and doesn't even sweat with the effort.
Flower, gleam and glow
Let your power shine
Make the clock reverse
Bring back what once was mine
Heal what has been hurt
Change the fates' design
Save what has been lost
Bring back what once was mine
What once was mine.......

I never saw Bewitched. I lost interest when I read the plot synopsis. However, I do agree with you on Batman Forever. The movie was enjoyable in a very goofy way. Carrey played a good Riddler. I would nominate it for marginal B-Movie status.

Ozzymandias

Ozzymandias speaks: In movies of the 50s and 60s, there would be a beatnick guy working on an abstract painting. Someone would either get mad at him and throw a liquid beverage (coffee, soda, beer) on it or a wacky fight involving the throwing of liquids (ketchup) or food (pie) would break out. After the liquid has splattered on the abstract painting, the artist looks at it and exclaims, "Oh wow, man! That made it look better!"  :twirl:

This shows up in action/horror films, as well as comedies.

Ozzymandias has spoken!!!
