Yeah, we all know them and it is pretty much required to have them in your script.

Here are my favorite ones from that list.

2. The Female Hostage: Yep, this one is used all the time in these movies.

5. The Ticking Time Bomb: You have to have a ticking time bomb! Or it will blow up. 24 seems to do this a lot too.

7. The Expository Speech: It only works if he has a German or British accent.

9. Never Trust The Man: Word up, G. I don’t trust Da Man either. You know what, screw the man!

16. I Think I Love My Ex-Wife: Not that I’m a divorce expert, but every Bruce Willis movie seems to have this angle and in real life this doesn’t happen. Want realistic, he should never talk to his wife again.
