high five

Great post, traz. You're sooo right, I hear this in movies all the time. It really shows a lack of creativity on the part of the writers... I mean, damn how often are we gonna have to hear someone say "high five" in a movie?

Quality contribution, man.

LOL.

But speaking of movie quotes that are used too much in real life: any line from Office Space. I seriously might pistol whip the next person that "has a case of the Mondays".

Show me some of that hate, pj.

Said to hero: No one's ever attempted [insert seemingly impossible situation] and survived.

Fast forward 30 minutes to hero standing triumphant.

Not a line per se, but a scene that has become very standard for heist/spy movies (the Ocean's flicks and the MI series, Entrapment, and so on).

When they're planning how to break into their destination and they go through each way in which its impossible, and how many levels of retinal scans and randomly-moving security cameras there are. And then TOM CRUISE says something like - "and that's the easy part!"

That being said, I really love these scenes, lol.

"I was born ready"

Actually, this is basically the only reason I want to see Ocean's 13.

George Clooney: Are you ready?
Andy Garcia: ...I was born ready.
Me watching preview: *Rolls eyes*
George Clooney: *Rolls eyes*
Me watching preview: "YES!"

Also, "This is what you trained for!"

and

"GO GO GO"

not exactly a line, but most sex scenes in movies are all the same and serve no purpose

to give a counterexample, i was pleasantly surprised that the sex scenes in "knocked up" were original and relevant to the story
