I can read every mind in this room apart
from yours you’re still not sure if
you’ve seen this romance before how
about now okay boys
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for another top
ten romantic movie cliches for this list
we’re taking a look at more familiar
conventions motifs and tropes that keep
working their way into cinematic love
stories whether you’re a sucker for
these cliches or officially sick of them
there forever embedded into the romance
formula
flaying if you didn’t see one you
thought should be on here be sure to
check out our initial list for the top
ten romantic movie cliches still over
number ten disapproving parents you
can’t keep me from Marty
like many romance cliches the
disapproving parents can be traced all
the way back to Shakespeare deny thy
father and refuse thy name or if thou
wilt not be but sworn my love and I’ll
no longer be a Capulet
he’s but thy name that is my enemy
thou art thyself though not a Montague
in some cases both groups of parents
will be dead set against the union of
their children she is out fooling around
with that boy till 2 o’clock in the
morning and it has got to stop
most of the time though the female leads
parent or parents are the primary
murderers of love I can’t make the rules
for us anymore we’re adults well then
act like one
even if their daughter’s boyfriend is
perfectly caring the parents will find
something to hate about him whether he’s
rebellious poor or uneducated but don’t
worry by the film’s conclusion they’re
guaranteed to finally let their child
leave the nest
a moment I’ll hand back number 9 romance
songs
watching a montage of two people falling
in love isn’t nearly as effective
without a little musical accompaniment
everybody needs a song beautiful T if
the imagery of sweethearts kissing in
the rain frolicking at the beach and
having passionate coitus doesn’t tell
you that they’re in love
the soundtrack will
the silly little love songs are almost
always featured during the third act
when we get the classic lonely montage
and a song about heartbreak change but I
know that this the bubbly music makes a
comeback for the happy ending however
followed by an upbeat pop song played
over the credits awesome not as awesome
as its ambiguous ly upbeat pop song that
has nothing to do with the plot they put
an idea into try to convince you that
you had a great time at this city you
know why don’t they ever make a movie
about what happens after the big kiss
they do it’s called porn Oh
number eight reformed player I don’t
want a bitch column never be a bitch he
is a well-rounded man capable of mature
emotions and deep abiding love things
which you know not oh maybe not but I do
know about lust seduction and
manipulation things did you know about
deep down every woman wants to find a
sleaze bag they can change into marriage
material
right never gonna feel this again and
excitement the energy you don’t get this
in relationship with us snap of his
fingers the player archetype can score
with any chick he desires I’m gonna get
out of here every night
what’s good at it yeah let’s get out of
it okay let’s get out let’s get out of
here let’s get out of here okay that is
every chick except our leading lady who
is immune to his womanizing charms must
have looked so forward to meeting me I
was dreading it I had this whole other
person built up in my mind through a
game of heart to get the player learns
there’s more to life than sleeping with
hundreds of various bimbos seriously
it’s like your Photoshop who needs the
swinger lifestyle when you can be in a
committed relationship especially if
it’s with let’s say Emma Stone I’m in
love with her I love her
number seven small town girls with
big-city dreams
lonely world she took the midnight train
going
anyway these young women likely read a
lot of Jane Austen growing up and
decided they wanted more out of life cut
out for more in this small town small
car as I come lively and passionate the
small-town girl isn’t appreciated by her
community that expects her to settle for
an ordinary existence yeah you know okay
you’re right I don’t fit in here
I am NOT skinny or glamorous and I don’t
know that much about fashion but I’m
smart I learn fast and I will work all
right Harry Nix
so these free spirits think they need to
travel to the big city to make their
dreams come true
upon arriving though they find that it’s
easier said than done
I’d like a flaming dipshit you believed
her dumped your jock boyfriend ditched
town and moved to Hollywood to have a
crack at fame and fortune am I missing
anything but through hard work quick
wits and occasionally singing like a
Disney Princess they might just make it
number six
frenemies thanks for being such a great
friend love Regina what’s so sweet
how would you send you a candy cane she
doesn’t even like you that much not
quite a friend and not quite an enemy
frenemies are the gossipy manipulative
bitchy individuals we should despise but
can’t bring ourselves to entirely hate
she’s my best boy I thought you two
weren’t speaking we’re not but that
doesn’t mean that she’s not my best
friend
or that I should be outwardly but why oh
my god I will pretend you did not just
us with that because as mean as they
seem frenemies never come off as
flat-out mean-spirited oh I’m sorry do
you have some prior commitment some
hideous skirt convention you’re after
good even when they’re saying cruel
things to someone’s face or behind their
back they still somehow managed to say
it in a funny semi friendly manner as a
result they often end up stealing all
the best lines in addition to being the
film’s most well-dressed and wealthy
character how your house is really nice
I know right number five
crying you watch me cry myself to sleep
for months and you never said anything
although the audience might not always
break out the tissues at least one of
the main characters in every romantic
movie is bound to shed a few tears I
always knew no matter what kind of
trouble I got into I’d never be in it
alone keep either with me numerous
scenarios can prompt crying like death
breakups or rejection
even a happy reunion can merit tears of
joy
whatever has our lovers whining it’s
unlikely you’re gonna see any runny snot
or red eyes like I can still feel you
movie stars need to perfect the sexy cry
so as not to appear unattractive which
brings us to our next cliche wait a
minute we’re not really breaking up by
weekend one tomorrow it’ll be like it
never happened
right number four attractive people what
do you think oh I love it I love it you
look so beautiful do you want to be in a
romance flick then get ready for a lot
of eyebrow plucking teeth bleaching and
depriving yourself of carbs Wow
Liz you look beautiful you you’ll be
hard-pressed to find a film in this
genre where the leads aren’t perfect
tens excluding comedians like Adam
Sandler
even when a character is supposed to be
a dateless ugly duckling they become a
knockout simply by removing their
glasses I don’t know the idea of
touching my eyes is your eyes are really
beautiful
we know that beautiful people sell more
tickets but could we please get a movie
where everybody’s just an average at
best you look beautiful
well I had a year to get ready number
three social class differences now that
is enough you are not to see him anymore
that’s funny no it’s not fine as it is
no it’s not I know you’re not gonna tell
me who I’m gonna love she’s a proper
rich sexually repressed girl from a
conservative family poor little rich
girl what does she know about misery no
no it’s not what I was thinking
he’s a penniless street rat with a
mysterious past and rides a motorcycle
you are a worthless street rat you were
born a street rat you’ll die a street
rat and only your fries will mourn you
based on their contradictory social
classes these two polar opposites
shouldn’t have anything to do with one
another it’s about security what is that
supposed to mean money he’s got a lot of
money against all odds however both
misunderstood souls will find what was
missing from their empty lives in one
another I’m sorry I lied to you about
being a prince I know why you did
society might not comprehend the
attraction but nothing will stop the
mismatched lovebirds from loving each
other and dancing together
number two lovers becoming separated
Robbie didn’t you read my letters had
I’ve been allowed to visit you had they
let me every day I would have been there
every day this cliche is often
instigated by other romantic movie
cliches every night I look at the sunset
and try to draw the last ounce of heat
from its long day and send it from my
heart to yours a few notable examples
being war misunderstandings the truth
coming out and to protect someone he has
one condition I must never see you again
whatever the reason the lovers need to
be separated for at least 10 minutes of
the movies running time come back to me
is not a request as frustrating as it
might be to see the lovers pulled apart
you can’t help but feel uplifted when
they finally reunite and live happily
ever after
unless one or both of them immediately
die well a brief reunion is better than
no reunion at all before we get to our
top pick here are a few honorable
mentions you got mail yes it’s a very
powerful words yes who’s he
that’s Edward Cohen
yeah How to Lose a Guy in 10 days yes go
number one corny dialogue do you love
her
with hope my heart romance has delivered
more corny lines than any other genre
known to man truly love you
before we die to be fair though romance
itself is kind of corny I love you not
as much as I love you whether you’re
telling somebody that you love them for
the first time or proposing marriage a
few cheesy lines are inevitable I’m also
just a girl standing in front of a boy
asking to love her
sometimes film will offer a declaration
of love that’s truly inspired touching
and uplifting
despite being shamelessly sentimental
I’ve been doing a lot of thing singers I
love you what I love how do you expect
me to respond to this how bad you love
me too
other times the dialogue will be so
trite that you’ll throw up in your mouth
if you to me left me now no one
that’s exactly what I’ll do that either
way corny dialogue and love stories go
hand-in-hand I wish my life is a movie
sometimes you know I never have to worry
about my hair we’re having to go to the
bathroom and then when I’m at my lowest
point some guy would chase me down the
street pour his heart out and we’d kiss
happily ever after do you agree with our
list are there any other romantic movie
cliches we missed for more lovey-dovey
