Things I Never Again Want to See in Movies

In no particular order...

1) Courtroom scenes: Done to death.
2) Hostage situations: Done to undeath.
3) Explosions: Villains are only truly dead when something has exploded.
4) Car/Plane/Boat/Carriage/Spaceship chases: Chases in any other damned vehicle also count.

Funny thing is that some older movies did any or all of these, and well. "And Justice For All" did #1, "Dog Day Afternoon" did #2, and "Star Wars" does both 3 and 4, and yet they don't suck. Would that I could say the same of more modern flicks.
