I was watching TGWTG top 11 Coolest Clichés and it reminded me of my list of hero shots. Every action movie has at lest one and I always intended to write them down one day but I never got around to it.

 

1: Standing over the enemy
usually battered and bloody and accompanied by a one liner
1 B: Standing over the enemy with their back truned.

 

2: Standing in front of an explosion

2 B: walking from an explosion

2.5: Standing in front of a fire

2.5 B: Walking from a fire
(I’m putting the fire in with the explosion because the fire is usually started by an explosion anyway)

 

3: Standing on a rooftop (looking at a city)

3 B: Standing on a rooftop (silhouetted by the moon, sky, etc)

 

4: Standing in a dramatic pose holding a weapon

 

5: Standing still with something blowing by/swirling around
usually in slow-mo



6: Posing in front of a flag
usually american



7: Standing silhouetted

7 B: Standing in shadow/half shadow

 

 

I’ll probably come back and update this if I think of any thing else
