little things or big.
so far we've got:
1. dumping a glass of water (or wine, beer, soda) on someone in anger
2. going to the window to see what the noise is

ooh! how about, someone running after you to catch you at the airport and say "WAIT, I LOVE YOU!"

not so much things like wizards and clearly fantasy things, but more like things in movies that pass themselves off as "real," like drama, or romantic comedies, and things that happen in a lot of movies, so that they are almost like cliche plot points.

In the movies groceries are always carried home in brown paper bags that contain carrots (always carrots) with long leafy stems sticking out of the top of the bag. In real life we use plastic bags with the contents (not always carrots) secured inside.
People never say "goodbye" when they hang up the phone. They just hang up after their last sentence is spoken.

Actually, number 1 happened with a friend of mine. She and her husband were having problems. She went to a dance club and found him there with another woman. Not only did she dump the beer on his head, she whacked him with the mug afterward! It was totally funny. Unfortunately, she had to have someone bail her out of jail. On the good side, they got back together. Guess you can knock some sense into someone:) lol.
But here's to add to the list: Good guys always win ... the frog turns into a prince ... when abducted by pirates, how lucky is it to wind up with Capt Jack Sparrow and his crew? ... for the guys out there - your new neighbor is a porn star (and she will actually give you the time of day) .... someone wins the lottery and splits it with you ... you meet the person you've been chatting with on the internet and you both are attractive and have chemistry ... you find out on your 11th birthday that you are a wizard (and a rich on at that), that dragons exist, cars can fly, and dogs have 3 heads.

You know when a person gets shot in those action movies the person jumps back like a couple feet or so. Well, on Myth Busters they proved that an idle body barely moves when it is shot.
Walking outside to ask if anyone is there.
Some one is chasing you: You go upstairs instead going out the door.
Staring at something coming at you (fire, flash flood, ect.) instead of running.
Searching outside in the dark without of flashlight. (Notice how most of these are from scarry movies?)
The dork all the sudden becoming prom queen/king, high school is not that nice.
That is the best I can do off the top of my head.

Anything that happens in a porn movie will never happen to you in real life.
People don't fly.
I don't care how mutated they are, they are still ugly.
Pistol wounds spray blood all over the place.
A deck of cards nor a zippo lighter will not stop a .45 bullet.
The guy from Die Hard would have been sued by the Japanese corporation for trespassing, destruction of property and would have been presented with a hefty cleaning bill for all the blood stains.

The good guy always wins, the good guy always gets the girl in the end, the ugly girl (whos not ugly) gets the hot guy, things blowing up in the street for no reason, shooting guns in the middle of a croward and no bystandards get hurt....
these are cliches that are used in almost every movie ever made !!!!! it's kinda boring an repeditive don't you think ?

Going out to see what the noise is despite the fact that some of your friends have already been killed.
Splitting up even though you know there's a psycho out there.
Going after your friends to do what you can instead of running and getting the cops or somebody.
Falling in love after one hour.
Falling in love instantaneously (though people keep telling me that that'll happen)
The list goes on

people who investigate strange and weird noises from spooky places, teenage girls who wear their best underwear when they happen to lose their clothes, having exactly the right change in a bar, being shot several times without flinching yet when they have ointment applied they wince, a baguette is always in a french womans shopping bag, and if ever a shopping bag is spilt it always contains fruit which rolls such as apples or oranges, and in the old movies they had sheets that covered a woman up to her neck where the man who was lying next to her had his chest exposed,

Guns are good..twenty shots from a .357 or spraying a Tommy gun non-stop for two minutes.
Jumping a car 200 feet and driving away in it.
A shark biting a 40' boat in half
A T-Rex prancing around San Diego
A no-name bum from Philly getting a shot at the champ.
A 3 ft. alien that comes and leaves in peace.

Defusing a bomb with less than a second to go before it explodes. They do that every time. I am of the opinion that it no longer adds to the excitement of a movie because it's become so predictable and you know what's gonna happen before it even does.
